Even though it is listed in the periodic table, 1 the metallic element boron is not a naturally occurring element. It is found in small amounts in the earth’s surface, and it is thought to be produced ...

Figure 1. (a) Design strategy and (b, c) chemical structure of the borohexane system. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), a type of molecular carbon with a graphene-like fragment structure, are ...

The team led by chemistry professor Holger Braunschweig at the University of Würzburg is investigating the ‘metal-mimetic’ properties of main group elements such as boron. They have shown that under ...

Foods rich in boron include fruits, vegetables, and nuts. 10 Supplemental boron is available in tablet and capsule form, but there are questions as to its solubility and bioavailability compared to ...
