Halogen bonds were first proposed as an activating interaction in 2008, but this alternative type of organocatalysis was ...

More efficient and sustainable energy conversion technologies, among other applications, hinge on lowering the amount of ...

It is appropriate for us to contemplate the growth of understanding of chemical kinetics which has taken place since the time of Planck. Understanding starts with the recognition by Stark in 1908 of ...

Although Grignard reagents containing the heavier alkaline-earth metals have been explored, they have always been an academic oddity. New synthetic routes such as ball milling and novel concepts for ...

Halogens are known to decrease the levels of stratospheric ozone. The latest measurements show that something similar occurs in the lower atmosphere over tropical oceans — and probably above most ...

This film discusses the halogens, specifically chlorine, bromine, and iodine, detailing their preparation from naturally occurring salts and their chemical properties. The film demonstrates various ...

Sodium and chlorine react vigorously when heated, giving an orange flame and clouds of white sodium chloride.

Chlorine, bromine and iodine are the three common Group 7 elements. Group 7 elements form salts when they react with metals. The term ‘halogen’ means ‘salt former’.
