Two-dimensional graphene has become one of the most intensively explored carbon allotropes in materials science owing to its attractive features, such as its outstanding physicochemical properties. To ...

The azide radical was identified in 1956 and a tetranitrogen complex was glimpsed in mass spectra in 2002, but its structure remains undetermined. 2 While the dinitrogen molecule is low in energy, ...

As one of the longest-serving death row inmates was executed via nitrogen gas, we take a look at how the method actually works. On Tuesday (June 10), murderer Gregory Hunt took his final breaths after ...

ATMORE, Ala. (AP) — An Alabama man convicted of killing a woman in 1988 was put to death Tuesday evening in the nation’s sixth execution by nitrogen gas. Gregory Hunt, 65, was pronounced dead at 6:26 ...

Now chemists at Justus Liebig University Giessen have created and isolated the neutral nitrogen allotrope hexanitrogen, or N6—a string of six nitrogen atoms held together by four double bonds ...
