Carbon bond that uses only 1 electron seen for 1st time
Carbon bond that uses only one electron seen for first time: ‘It will be in the textbooks’
For a little more than a century, chemists have believed that strong atomic links called covalent bonds are formed when atoms share one or more electron pairs. Now, researchers have made the first observations of single-electron covalent bonds between two carbon atoms.
Discovery of a single-electron covalent bond in a carbon-based compound
Analysis using X-ray diffraction revealed an unprecedented closeness between the carbon atoms, hinting at the presence of single-electron covalent bonds. This groundbreaking discovery opens up new possibilities in the realm of chemical bonding and molecular structure.
Discovery of a stable single-electron covalent bond between two carbon atoms validates a century-old theory
Covalent bonds, in which two atoms are bound together by sharing a pair of electrons, form the scaffolding that underpins the majority of organic compounds. In 1931, the Nobel Laureate Linus Pauling suggested that covalent bonds made from just a single,
Single-electron carbon-carbon bond identified
Chemists at Hokkaido University have experimentally confirmed the existence of a single-electron carbon-carbon bond for the first time (Nature 2024, DOI: 10.1038/s41586-024-07965-1 ). Linus Pauling proposed the concept of one-electron covalent bonds in 1931, but direct evidence of their existence in carbon systems had proved elusive.
