Chemists at UCLA are showing that some of organic chemistry’s most famous “rules” aren’t as unbreakable as once thought. By creating bizarre, cage-shaped molecules with warped double bonds—structures ...

We offer a reserach area with its core in the Organic Chemistry of Natural Products focusing on understanding utilizing, and replicating the chemical compounds produced by living organisms. This way ...

Crenarchaeol is a large, closed-loop lipid that is present in the membranes of ammonium-oxidizing archaea. In comparison to other archaeal membrane lipids, crenarchaeol is very complex and, so far, ...

This interactive activity from NOVA shows what happens at the molecular level when the organic steroid cortisone is produced in a laboratory from the "starter" compound diosgenin. Though it may ...

Master acid–base concepts, intermediates, and isomerism to make Organic Chemistry a high-scoring, logic-driven section in JEE ...

Bioorganic chemistry was born out of combining the two well-established scientific disciplines of chemistry and biochemistry. It is a rapidly growing scientific field that focuses on implementing ...

One of the important objectives of green chemistry is the use of eco-friendly solvents and catalysts to perform chemical reactions. Catalysts such as organocatalysts, enzymes, and ionic liquids have ...

New play in transition metal chemistry playbook revealed. New research shows that net oxidative addition can occur via a different order of events in which the transitiion metal complex accepts ...
