Researchers have found an energy-efficient way to convert the chief greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO2) into useful chemicals. Using the method, CO2 is transformed into structures called metal-organic ...

Several compounds do not exhibit linear molecular geometry due to the presence of lone pairs of electrons on the central atom ...

Molecular catalysts that mediate reactions with carbon dioxide often promote chemical reductions that form either carbon monoxide or formic acid (HCO 2 H), but lack the activity and selectivity to ...

Traditional catalysts in the RWGS reaction are made from precious metals, including platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd) and gold (Au), limiting the cost efficiency of the reaction. Because of this, new ...

Carbon dioxide (CO 2) is a long-known and thoroughly studied molecule. It has its upsides, such as its uses in carbonated beverages and urea manufacture, and its downsides, especially its dominant ...

A crystalline material composed of metal and organic building blocks holds more carbon dioxide than other porous substances do, chemists report. The discovery could lead to a device that reduces power ...
