Organometallic compounds tend to marry metals with aromatic hydrocarbons so that the metal sits above or below the carbon-based group’s flat plane and interacts with the hydrocarbon’s p orbitals. The ...

The largest polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) ever found in space, cyanocoronene, has been identified by a group of chemists and astronomers, marking a significant advancement in astrochemistry.

Laboratory experiments have clearly demonstrated that the transport of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g., phenanthrene, anthracene, pyrene) through porous media is enhanced by their association ...
