A new technique makes it much easier and cheaper to determine key characteristics of amine-containing chiral compounds synthesized individually or in parallel. The technique, which measures product ...

Chirality sensing and enantiomeric excess determination have emerged as pivotal techniques within chemical and pharmaceutical research, providing crucial insights into the optical purity of chiral ...

A straightforward asymmetric strategy has led to the creation of elusive nitrogen stereocentres. The carefully designed ...

Enantiomers are molecules that are each other’s mirror image — like one’s left and right hand. They are said to be chiral, chirality being the term for ‘displaying handedness’. Although a pair of ...

Imagine that you have to carry out a catalytic asymmetric transfer hydrogenation, and all you have to do is reach for a bottle of powder, transfer some powder to a flask, and mix it with solvent and ...

video: Co-author Nicholas A. Kotov talks about the biomimetic nature of inorganic nanoparticles and their assemblies, the significance of mesoscale helical assemblies, and relevant technological ...

Established in 1926, Plant Physiology is an international journal devoted to physiology, biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology, genetics, biophysics, and environmental biology of plants. Plant ...

Researchers report a new method for distinguishing between enantiomers, molecules that are mirror images of each other. The procedure, relevant for the pharmaceutical industry, involves the chemical ...
