But thanks to some meticulous chemistry, researchers at the University of Nantes have shown experimentally that astatine can form a special kind of attraction known as a halogen bond (Nature ...

The halogen bond in solution; This session will cover the properties and applications of halogen bonds and other sigma-hole interactions in solution. The scope includes e.g., thermodynamic and kinetic ...

In terms of half-life, radiation, and chemistry, “astatine is the Goldilocks of α emitters,” Makvandi says. Early-stage clinical trials have shown some promise for astatine-based therapies.

The team then built a model containing most up-to-date halogen gas-phase chemistry and simulated the impact of the observed photoliable BrCl, Cl2, ClNO2, Br2 on the oxidative capacity which drives ...

Halogen chemistry has been exploited by medicinal chemists for nearly 70 years. To date, halogens were regarded useful for optimization of so-called ADMET properties (the acronym stands for ...

The halogen chemistry currently used and the presence of antimony trioxide are the primary causes for concern, prompting the European Union to prohibit, effective this past March 1, ...

New research shows that using halogens -- a class of elements that include fluoride, bromine, chlorine and iodine -- in a dye-sensitized solar cell can increase conversion efficiency by 25 per cent.
