Little is known about the chemistry of water on stepped surfaces, although it plays a central role in many catalytic surface reactions

Adsorption of Water on a Stepped Pt Surface

Total Synthesis of (±)-Maoecrystal V
The total synthesis of maoecrystal V, albeit as a racemate, has been completed

Double-Edged Synthesis
A two-directional total synthesis has been used by US chemists to construct microbial molecules with anticancer properties

Lanthanoid Single-Ion Magnets
Polyoxometalate-based mononuclear lanthanoid complexes provide new examples of single-ion magnets

Lubrication Oil Emitted By Aircrafts

Controlled Release Applications
Self-assembly of three molecular components results in a delivery platform, the release rate of which can be tuned after its production

New Insights into Surface Tension of Water
The equilibrium surface tension of water is that of an interface charged by the flow of hydroxide and not that of the pristine air/water surface
