This dynamic formula for benzene recognised for the first time ... dropped the accent on the final 'é' of his name and became Kekule von Stradonitz.

The meaning and purpose of dreams has been debated from time immemorial. And the debate continues. In my experience, dream work can be highly instructive and beneficial.

In 1865, Kekulé proposed the structural formula for benzene. Although it had already been synthesized by Berthelot in the 1850s, benzene's stability could not be adequately explained until ...

It did match a structure in which three benzene rings are attached to a single carbon. But this seemed impossible! German chemist August Kekule, who had been von Baeyer’s mentor, and Scottish ...

Kathleen Lonsdale got in on the ground floor of X-ray crystallography soon after its discovery in the early 20th century, and used it to prove conclusively that the benzene molecule is a flat ...

Opens in a new tab or window Dozens of over-the-counter acne products had very high levels of the known carcinogen benzene, even when they were taken right off the store shelves, researchers found.

are led to infer from the occurrence of bands in the spectrum of benzene that these also are caused by the making and breaking of the carbon bonds in the molecule of the substance. I have given a ...

German chemist August Kekulé identified the ring-shaped structure of the compound benzene after dreaming of a serpent ...

We all have come in contact with benzene in one way or another. It’s responsible for the odor of gasoline. But more importantly, it’s a key molecule in organic chemistry. It has the shape of a ...
