Green synthesis represents a paradigm shift in organic chemistry, embracing environmentally sustainable practices that minimise the use of hazardous reagents and energy consumption. This approach ...

While chemistry usually follows the downhill pull of thermodynamics, Alison Wendlandt is creating higher‑energy stereoisomers ...

Researchers from Japan have now proposed a novel strategy for synthesizing inaoside A from two major compounds: a ribofuranosyl trichloroacetimidate (left) and an aglycone (right). Natural compounds ...

As drug discovery places greater emphasis on practical execution and scalable delivery, flow chemistry is playing an increasingly important role across modern synthesis workflows. At the latest Viva ...

Penn State researchers have uncovered a surprising twist in a foundational chemical reaction known as oxidative addition. Typically believed to involve transition metals donating electrons to organic ...

As a graduate student at the University of California, Berkeley, Mark Levin started sketching out ideas for how to do something no chemist had ever managed before: swapping one of the carbon atoms in ...
