Chemistry World February 12, 2015 James Urquhart	MOF sensor sniffs out ammonia An electronic device that exploits the semiconducting properties of a two dimensional metal-organic framework, a material analagous to graphene, has been made for the first time.
Chemistry World February 12, 2015 Andrew Turley	Enzyme uses internal network for cyclization Researchers have investigated the formation of cyclic terpenes in Artemisia annua, the plant source of antimalarial drug artemisinin, and found that a collection of amino acids working together as a network are likely to be responsible.
Information Today February 12, 2015	CAS and FIZ Karlsruhe Introduce New STN Platform STN, operated jointly by Chemical Abstracts Service and FIZ Karlsruhe, has a new platform that delivers essential, value-added intellectual property content from CAS databases and other biomedical databases.
Chemistry World February 3, 2015 Sanjay Kumar	India's chemistry challenges While India is yet to catch up with the global cutting edge technologies, some of its interventions have made global headlines.
Chemistry World February 11, 2015 Jon Evans	Calculations predict pentagonal graphene Scientists in China have proposed the existence of a novel 2D allotrope of carbon made up of pentagons, which they have dubbed 'penta-graphene'.
Chemistry World February 11, 2015 Matthew Gunther	Silicene 'sandwich' transistor a delectable prospect The world's first one-atom-thick silicon transistor has been made by scientists in the US.
Chemistry World February 11, 2015 James Urquhart	'Early RNA' reactions characterized Researchers have shown how precursor nucleotide molecules could have self-polymerized without enzymes and subsequently given rise to the catalytic activity of the simplest, most ancient forms of RNA.
Chemistry World February 11, 2015 Derek Lowe	The smell of success The sheer variety of smells that we chemists are exposed to is surely one driver of our passion for the subject.
Chemistry World February 10, 2015 Katrina Kramer	Powering up renewables with fullerene enhanced electricity grids Adding tiny amounts of buckyballs to the insulators of high-voltage AC cables makes them more resistant to high voltages, Swedish and Australian researchers have discovered.
Chemistry World February 10, 2015 William Bergius	Next generation lithium -- sulfur batteries given DNA boost In a creative application of rational design, scientists in China have turned to nature to help overcome one of the key challenges facing the most probable successor to the lithium ion battery.
