The term aromaticity is a basic, long-standing concept in chemistry that is well established for ring-shaped carbon compounds. Aromatic rings consisting solely of metal atoms were, however, heretofore ...

The symposium was established by Professor Tetsuo Nozoe in 1970 as International Symposium on Nonbenzenoid Aromatic Compounds. However, not only the name but also the aim of the Symposium was changed ...

The novel compound is a new chapter in a story that began in 1825, when English scientist Michael Faraday first isolated benzene from gas lights. Benzene would later be identified as one of a class of ...

As the saying goes, all good things take time – and this could be said to be especially true of major scientific breakthroughs. After nearly half a century of speculation and decades of attempts by ...

Successful reduction of the chemical manufacturing industry’s environmental impact relies on finding a greener way to make the chemical building blocks for common and massively consumed compounds.

DFT calculations were used to elucidate the effects of electron density for AOX activity. The site of metabolism on the aromatic compound tended to correspond to the most electro-positive ...

Aromaticity is one of chemistry’s oldest concepts to describe the behavior of molecules. Chemists created it 150 years ago to help visualize and explain the bonding, structure, and reactivity of ...

The ISNA was originally established in 1970 as the International Symposium on Nonbenzenoid Aromatic Compounds and has developed into the flagship platform to present new findings and exchange ...
