Chirality, the property of asymmetry wherein structures exist as non-superimposable mirror images, plays a central role in supramolecular chemistry. The self‐assembly of molecules into larger, ...
Chemists at UC Davis are using catalysts (shown in gray spheres) to make organic compounds (blue sticks) with a specific chirality, or “handedness.” Most biological molecules are chiral, including ...
In findings that may shed light on the earliest days of evolutionary history, R. Graham Cooks and a team of Purdue chemists have reported experiments that suggest why all 20 of the amino acids that ...
New research shows how metal surfaces that lack mirror symmetry could provide a novel approach towards manufacturing pharmaceuticals. These 'intrinsically chiral' metal surfaces offer potential new ...
The recognition of chirality in bioactive molecules is as old as modern organic chemistry itself. Pioneering work by Jean-Baptiste Biot, Louis Pasteur, Emil Fischer, and J. vant Hoff established ...
Recent studies have revealed that electrons passing through chiral molecules exhibit significant spin polarization—a phenomenon known as chirality-induced spin selectivity. This effect stems from a ...
