Tezpur University helps solve 60-year chemistry mystery

Researchers from Assam's Tezpur University have contributed to an international chemistry breakthrough, helping scientists isolate stable oxoboranes for the first time. The discovery, published in Nature Chemistry, resolves a challenge that chemists have pursued for more than 60 years. Led by Professor Ashwini K. Phukan, the Indian team provided computational support to researchers at Germany's University of Würzburg, who successfully produced three oxoboranes through reactions involving diborac
