The study of isotope geochemistry concerning transition metals has emerged as a pivotal branch within environmental science, merging advanced analytical techniques with geochemical insights to unravel ...

To build all of the solar panels, wind turbines, electric vehicle batteries, and other technologies necessary to fight climate change, we’re going to need a lot more metals. Mining those metals from ...

Density functional theory (DFT) is a cornerstone tool of modern physics, chemistry, and engineering used to explore the behavior of electrons. While essential in modeling systems with many electrons, ...

Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition. Typically believed to involve transition metals donating electrons to organic ...

Controlling regioselectivity remains one of the major challenges in hydrocyanation. When an unsymmetrical alkyne undergoes this reaction, it typically yields a mixture of regioisomers. This ...

Direct oxidation of methane to methanol is dominated by transition- or noble-metal-based catalysts, thus making the reaction quite expensive. To make the process efficient and cost-effective, ...

Bloomberg announced today the launch of the Bloomberg Global Commodity Transition Metals Index (ticker: GCOMTM), further expanding its suite of leading commodity indices. The index aims to track the ...
