Pterins are a class of heterocyclic compounds intrinsic to diverse biological pathways, participating in redox processes and serving as cofactors in enzymatic reactions. Their ability to absorb ...

The chemistry of porphycenes has evolved into a dynamic field that bridges coordination chemistry and proton transfer mechanisms. Unique among macrocycles, porphycenes are structural isomers of ...

Scientists have been naming ideas, theorems, discoveries, and so on after other scientists for a very long time (Newton’s laws of motion, anyone?). Chemists are no different. They’ve been naming ...

Medicinal chemistry, also known as pharmaceutical chemistry, is a branch of chemistry focused on the development of new drugs and the improvement of existing ones. It is an interdisciplinary field ...

Click reactions—the subject of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Chemistry—come in many forms, but they all share a few key features. Namely, click chemistry forges new chemical bonds quickly, selectively, and ...

Traditional electrolyte research has long centered on the solvation behavior of lithium-ions (cation), focusing on improving ...

New study reveals how mass spectrometry can be used to determine the mechanisms used by molecular glues to stick to their targets. Molecular glues are a continually expanding area of medicinal ...

The oxygen evolution reaction is more relevant to your daily life than you would think. It is used in many electrochemical devices, such as batteries. However, this reaction still has a lot of room ...

When Class 12 students will sit down to write the CBSE Chemistry board exam, they are not just recalling equations or reaction mechanisms. They are being tested on something deeper and more durable: ...

A Japanese team's discovery that stainless steel ball mills can activate nickel catalysts adds to a growing list of examples ...
