Researchers at the University of St Andrews have revealed that they have found a key to unlocking an 80-year-old chemical ...

Researchers at the University of St Andrews have uncovered a long‑elusive molecular "reshuffle," a breakthrough that tackles ...

New research describes how the modulation of the geometry of a helical reactor at a macroscopic level enables controlling the sign of chirality of a process at a nanometric scale, an unprecedented ...

A new type of OLED can generate left- or right-handed circularly polarized light from just one form of light-emitting ...

A team of chemists has made significant strides in the field of mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs). Their work showcases the development of a compact catenane with tuneable mechanical chirality ...

Chirality is a fundamental property of asymmetry in nature, where an object or molecule cannot be superimposed onto its mirror image. In the context of nanotechnology, chirality refers to the ...

Chirality and natural products are two pivotal concepts within the domains of chemistry and biology. Chirality is a molecular property that renders it non-superimposable on its mirror image, while ...

In our high school chemistry classes we all learn about chirality, the property of organic molecules in which two chemically identical molecules can have different structures that are mirror images of ...

A new, real-time technique to measure the changes in chirality of biomolecules in the deep ultraviolet part of the electromagnetic spectrum could be important for improved drug development and ...
