Sulfur hexafluoride – Molecule of the Month April 2008 [Archived version]
Sulphur hexafluoride, SF 6: The unreactive gas that’s found in electrical insulation, trainers and double-glazing. Sounds like a science fiction serial No, it is probably the most dangerous greenhouse gas. I thought that was carbon dioxide? SF6 is the gas with a global warming potential, measured over a 100-year span, around 20,000 times greater than […]

New chemical structures built on carbon-fluorine bonds
This is an iterative coupling reaction using the present catalytic system. Credit: Osaka University Osaka, Japan — Making complicated organic molecules is like solving a Rubik’s cube. Organic chemists need to design sequences of reactions to carefully build up parts of a molecule, while maintaining the structure at other sites. Although chemists have developed many […]
