Attaching amino acids to a hydrophobic organic molecule allows them to self-assemble into rare, knotted structures with ...

A piece of research carried out by the EHU’s Spectroscopy Group and the Biofisika Institute (CSIC/EHU) and published in the ...

The separation of enantiomers – mirror-image forms of chiral compounds – is a pivotal process in chemical research due to its wide-reaching applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and materials ...

Like carbon and silicon, germanium’s lighter brethren on the periodic table, the metalloid can bond to four different groups, forming a chiral, tetrahedral molecule. Researchers at Nankai University ...

Scientists have made a significant leap forward in the field of chiral molecules. The team achieved near-complete separation in quantum states for these essential components of life. This discovery ...

Separations using tiny polymer-based devices could offer an alternative to chromatography for purifying of chiral compounds. Serena Arnaboldi of the University of Milan and coworkers initially ...

Osaka, Japan－Researchers at The University of Osaka have discovered a new type of chiral symmetry breaking (CSB) in an organic crystalline compound. This phenomenon, involving a solid-state structural ...
