Chemistry World December 20, 2012 Laura Howes	Cutting edge chemistry in 2012 This year saw more work probing the nature of bonding. In Germany, Holger Braunschweig found that reacting a bis(N-heterocyclic carbene)-stabilized tetrabromodiborane with sodium naphthalene gave diborene or diboryne compounds with the world's first stable boron -- boron triple bond.
Information Today December 20, 2012 Robert E. Buntrock	Chemistry Files on Dialog ProQuest is actively working on rolling out its ProQuest/Dialog platform including seeking other chemistry-oriented files. They consider their customer base to be biomedical and/or pharmaceutical researchers.
Chemistry World December 19, 2012 Amy Middleton-Gear	Early Alzheimer's diagnosis compound UK and US scientists have developed a labelled tracer compound that binds to plaques closely associated with Alzheimer's disease so that the plaques can be picked up by a medical imaging technique.
Chemistry World December 19, 2012	Overcoming small obstacles What if photolithography hits a barrier it cannot breach? That question has motivated scientists to recruit chemistry to a series of printing methods with the power to engineer nanometre-scale materials.
Chemistry World December 19, 2012 Andrea Sella	Wedgwood's pyrometer Josiah Wedgwood. English potter and chemist (1730 -- 1795), invented a system for measuring the extreme heat of kilns and furnaces.
Chemistry World December 19, 2012 Paul Duckmanton	Inorganic chemistry The depth of coverage of topics in Inorganic Chemistry by R. Gopalan, seems variable in comparison to other inorganic chemistry textbooks.
Chemistry World December 18, 2012 Caryl Richards	Boron vapor trail leads to heterofullerenes A team of scientists has developed a simple way to synthesize heterofullerenes -- fullerenes with atoms other than carbon in their structure -- by exposing fullerene to boron vapor during their growth.
Chemistry World December 18, 2012 Jennifer Newton	Technique to measure chemotherapy effectiveness A technique to measure how effective chemotherapy is by studying the physical changes that occur in human cells has been developed by US scientists.
Chemistry World December 17, 2012 Jessica Cocker	Helping the fight against flu Scientists from Australia and the US have developed a synthesis for a drug that gives higher yields and antiviral activity than currently used commercial drugs, such as Relenza (zanamivir) and Tamiflu (oseltamivir), they claim.
Chemistry World December 17, 2012 Patrick Walter	RSC acquires rights to Merck Index The Royal Society of Chemistry has acquired the rights to the 'bible' of chemistry, the Merck Index, familiar around the world to medicinal chemists and drug discovery scientists.
