Carbon–carbon triple bonds exhibit a distinct Raman response in the region of 1,800–2,800 cm −1, known as the cellularly silent region. This unique chemical signature, coupled with the ...

Researchers from the University of Würzburg are opening up new horizons in chemistry: They present the world's first triple bond between the atoms boron and carbon. Boron, carbon, nitrogen and ...
