Anomalous formation of trihydrogen cations from water on nanoparticles
The H3 + ion plays a key role in interstellar chemistry and can be formed from organic compounds upon interaction with charged particles or radiation. Here the authors demonstrate that H3 + can also be formed from water adsorbed on silica nanoparticles ...

Ab Initio Study of Fine and Hyperfine Interactions in Triplet POH
Phosphorous-containing molecules have a great relevance in prebiotic chemistry in view of the fact that phosphorous is a fundamental constituent of biomolecules, such as RNA, DNA, and ATP.

Interstellar deuterium chemistry [PDF]
Abstract An interstellar reaction scheme of the type described by E. Iglesias (Astrophys. J. 218, 697 (1977)) has been extended to include deuterium chemistry and also isomeric forms of some molecules. The role of isomeric forms of the intermediates CNH2 and HCNH+ in the production of interstellar HCN and HNC is considered. The lowest

What is the role played by amino acids in the chemistry of the interstellar medium and the emergence of life on the early Earth? Are they really the primary key compounds as free amino acids?

The chemistry of planet-forming regions is not interstellar [PDF]
Advances in infrared and submillimeter technology have allowed for detailed observations of the molecular content of the planet-forming regions of protoplanetary disks. In particular, disks around solar-type stars now have growing molecular inventories that can be directly compared with both prestellar chemistry and that inferred for the early solar ...

First controlled formation of cyanohexatriyne (HC7N) is achieved using a cobalt–alkyne masking strategy that overcomes the intrinsic instability of nitrile‐substituted polyynes. The approach enables spectroscopic validation of HC7N and reveals its pronounced electrophilicity through a selective conjugate addition with diethylamine.

Clathrate hydrate crystallization
Abstract Clathrate hydrate crystallization has been an area of interest to chemical engineers from the point of view of crystal structure, thermophysical properties, phase equilibria, kinetics, industrial applications, and environmental (climate change) implications.

Bistability in Interstellar Gas‐Phase Chemistry [PDF]
We present an analysis of "bistability" in gas-phase chemical models of dark interstellar clouds. We identify the chemical mechanisms that allow high- and low-ionization solutions to the chemical rate-equations to coexist. We derive simple analytic scaling relations for the gas densities and ionization rates for which the chemistry becomes bistable. We

The ionization of anthracene, acridine, and phenazine has been explored, along with the removal of one and two hydrogen atoms, to provide valuable information for astrochemists and to understand the behavior of the resulting structures and their electronic reorganization. Abstract In this study, we systematically explored the stability and isomerism of
