The diverse chiral space covered by enzymes can also ... and especially for chemical biologists working at the interface of chemistry and biology.

Researchers at Leipzig University have developed a new process for reversing the polarity of chemical compounds, also known as umpolung, for the precise synthesis of pharmaceuticals.

Alkenes with functional groups on opposite sides of the double bond can also be thought of as trans, stemming from the Latin ...

Similarly, some molecules can be left or right-handed. Although these are mirror images – the chemistry term is enantiomers, or chiral molecules – they can interact completely differently with other ...
