Chemistry World June 25, 2012 Michael Gross	Running Rings Around Molecular Wires New research could open up the possibility of using new carbon compounds as wires in molecular electronics.
Chemistry World June 25, 2012	Chemistry in Evolution In "Evolution's Destiny," the authors explore the role of chemistry in evolution, and in particular the changing role of inorganic elements in the evolution of the ecosystem.
Chemistry World June 24, 2012 David Bradley	First Stable Hydroxide-Conducting Membrane Created A team at Simon Fraser University, has developed a polymer based on benzimidazolium hydroxide that can transport the hydroxyl ion and yet does not degrade quickly as other alkaline-transport membranes have done.
Chemistry World June 24, 2012	An Invaluable Resource In the new edition of "Organic Syntheses Based on Name Reactions: A Practical Guide to 750 Transformations," the authors deliver a comprehensive guide to named reactions in organic synthesis.
Chemistry World June 21, 2012 Andrew Turley	Industrial nitroglycerin made fast and safe Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology in Pfintzal, Germany, have come up with what might be the safest approach yet -- using microreactors to produce nitroglycerin continuously rather than in batches.
Chemistry World June 21, 2012 Laura Howes	Chemistry nobel laureate William Knowles dies Knowles shared the Nobel prize in Chemistry in 2001 with Ryoji Noyori and Barry Sharpless, for their work in asymmetric catalysis. Noyori and Knowles shared half the prize for their work on asymmetric hydrogenation reactions.
