Inorganic chemistry encompasses the study of the synthesis, structure, bonding and reactivity of compounds that do not centre on C–H frameworks. It embraces main‐group elements, transition metals, ...

As compared to organic chemistry, which is a study dedicated to carbon-containing compounds, the area of inorganic chemistry examines the properties and behaviors of all other compounds including ...

Inorganic nanoparticles are nanoscale materials composed of inorganic compounds, such as metals, metal oxides, and semiconductors. These nanoparticles typically have sizes ranging from 1 to 100 ...

Tetrahedranes are highly strained hydrocarbons with tetrahedral cores. Such molecules could serve as high-energy materials and building blocks, but they are difficult to make and isolate. To make the ...

Researchers have achieved an efficiency boost of 15.44% to 17.04% in all-inorganic perovskite solar cells by incorporating a conductive fullerene-derivative interlayer between the perovskite and ...

Adding organic solvents to the crystallization solution allowed the chiral inorganic compound cesium copper chloride (CsCuCl₃) to form single-handed (enantiopure) crystals. Among the water-miscible ...

The faculty members who make up Saint Louis University’s Department of Chemistry are highly regarded in their fields. They are known for their extensive research across a diverse group of specialties ...

A chemistry researcher who made history a decade ago with the accidental discovery of the first new blue inorganic pigment in more than two centuries is again pushing forward the science of color. An ...

Chirality—often described as "handedness"—is a fundamental property of nature, underlying the behavior of molecules ranging from DNA to pharmaceuticals. While chemists have long known how to separate ...
