Scientists report the first confirmed detection of thiepine, a complex sulfur-bearing molecule, in an interstellar cloud near the Milky Way’s center.

Researchers from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a "capping-and-coupling" strategy to transform naturally occurring (native) sugars directly into compounds known as ...

Macrolactones—large ring lactones—are core components of many natural products and pharmaceutical agents. Traditional synthetic routes rely on seco acids activated with condensing reagents, often ...

For Daniil Boiko and Andrei Tyrin, the idea for Onepot AI came from the same frustration. “The best ideas in drug discovery were often blocked not by biology, but by synthesis,” Boiko told TechCrunch.

Abstract: Graphene oxide (GO) has gained significant attention in recent years due to its exceptional properties and wide range of applications. This study investigates the development of gas sensors ...

Breakthrough in N 2 activation! This study unveils an electron catalysis strategy that directly converts N 2 into azo compounds under mild conditions—a game-changer for nitrogen fixation. By ...

A new reagent has moved carbon-atom transfer out of the chemical flatlands, allowing chemists to place a single carbon atom so that it makes bonds to four different substituents. The reagent makes ...

Advancements in drug discovery and chemical development have compelled the integration of computer-assisted technologies to expedite processes, uncover efficiencies, and foster innovation in synthesis ...
