Chemists have achieved a new feat in the realm of chemical design and synthesis: They've helped create the first example of a synthetic molecule, with an asymmetric oxygen atom as its centerpiece, ...
Chiral drugs contain non-superimposable mirror-image forms (enantiomers) that can exhibit drastically different pharmacological effects. Over 60% of current drugs are chiral, highlighting their ...
The UCF-developed plasmonic technology, shown here, significantly improves the detection of the chirality of molecules, meeting a crucial demand in the field of medical and pharmaceutical research.

Chemists develop new method to synthesize chiral bridged polycyclic compounds for drug discovery
A Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) research team has developed a catalytic enantioselective type II [5 + 2] cycloaddition method to address the challenges of synthesizing chiral ...
In a recent study published in the journal Angewandte Chemie, scientists Emilio Quiñoá and Félix Freire from the Center for Research in Biological Chemistry and Molecular Materials developed new ...
Sometimes the difference between life-saving drug and deadly side effect is chirality. L-DOPA is the best drug we have for Parkinson’s disease. If you take L-DOPA and reflect it in a mirror, you get a ...
