In the January/February issue of the magazine American Scientist, Chemistry Nobel Laureate Roald Hoffmann took exception to scientists applying the concept of aromaticity beyond organic molecules to ...
Aromaticity is one of chemistry’s oldest concepts to describe the behavior of molecules. Chemists created it 150 years ago to help visualize and explain the bonding, structure, and reactivity of ...
Scientists have achieved the first real-time visualization of how 'excited-state aromaticity' emerges within just hundreds of femtoseconds and then triggers a molecule to change from bent to planar ...

In a world first, the team, led by Professor Stephen Liddle, discovered a new type of aromatic molecule made entirely of ...
Aromaticity, a concept usually used to explain the striking stability and unusual reactivity of certain carbon-based molecules, could inspire the design of new catalysts with novel uses, KAUST ...
Scientists have created complexes with aromatic three-atom bismuth rings that are stabilised by heavy actinide atoms. These ...
In 1862, a chemist nodded off in front of a fire and began to dream. August Kekulé had been pondering the most pressing question in his field at the time: what was the chemical structure of a curious ...
