Chemistry World May 20, 2014 Andy Extance	Mechanism study seeks to clear 'crystalline flask' cloud The Japanese chemists behind a controversial x-ray crystallography method have used it to study a poorly-understood reaction mechanism for the first time.
Chemistry World May 20, 2014 Rachel Purser-Lowman	Microbes reduce coal's carbon footprint Scientists in Canada are investigating the microbial conversion of coal into methane, to find a way that coal, especially low grade unmineable coal, can be used in order to minimize its environmental impact.
Chemistry World May 20, 2014 Andrea Sella	Stock's valve It is a belated tribute to Alfred Stock that in 2013, the United Nations Environment Program at last agreed in the Minamata Convention, to phase out almost all uses of mercury.
Chemistry World May 20, 2014 Robert Atkinson	50 and more essential NMR experiments There are few working in NMR labs around the world who will not be familiar with this book's predecessors.
Chemistry World May 19, 2014 Polly Wilson	Photooxidation system that's membrane-bound for success For the first time, a water oxidation catalyst and photosensitiser have been co-embedded into a membrane to make an artificial water photooxidation system.
Chemistry World May 16, 2014 Patrick Walter	Three glowing mice Mice injected with quantum dots are helping scientists understand how nanoparticles can accumulate in the body.
