Redox reactions form the basis of many fundamental processes of life. Without them, neither cellular respiration nor ...

There are probably thousands of kinds of metabolisms, or chemical processes that maintain life, said Donald Canfield, a ...

A new study provides fresh insight into traditional acid-base chemistry by revealing that the mutual neutralization of ...

Ultrafast electron imaging reveals never-before-seen nuclear motions in hydrocarbon molecules triggered by light. The ...

the transfer of electrons is coupled with the transfer of positively charged protons. This proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), as it is known, does not produce any change in charge – the ...

Electron transfer is a process by which an electron moves from one atom or molecule to another. It is a key concept in redox chemistry – the chemistry of reactions where one reaction partner ...

In nature, nitrogen is reduced by nitrogenase enzymes, which contain large metalloproteins and promote a sequence of proton-coupled electron-transfer reactions to accomplish the reduction.

Researchers have developed a novel combination of materials that have organic and inorganic properties, with the goal of ...
