Mechanical chirality refers to the chirality arising from the non-superimposable spatial arrangement of interlocked molecular rings, which can significantly impact their properties and functions. In ...

Over 90% of U.S. prescriptions are filled by local pharmacies, which also serve as vital public health providers. Nearly 18% of Americans live in “pharmacy deserts,” with entire communities ...

Researchers have discovered a method to induce chirality in non-chiral materials using terahertz light. This groundbreaking technique, which involves manipulating crystal lattice structures on ...

In chiral solids, this property enables unique interactions with chiral molecules and polarized light, making them valuable for applications in catalysis, sensing, and optical devices. However, ...

Chirality is a fundamental property of matter that determines many biological, chemical and physical phenomena. Chiral solids, for example, offer exciting opportunities for catalysis, sensing and ...

Chirality, a property of an object being non-superimposable on its mirror image, is a critical natural aspect in a spectrum of spaces ranging from basic molecules to galaxies. Concerted efforts ...

Recent advances in chiral selectors immobilization and chiral mobile phase additives in liquid chromatographic enantioseparations: A review. J. Chromatogr. A. 2023, 1706, 464214. DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma ...

In trying to produce artificial chirality in the lab, chemists have found that the distribution of a magnetic field is itself chiral. Some molecules exist in two forms such that their structures ...

Chemists have synthesized the first stable molecule whose chirality is solely attributed to a stereogenic oxygen, according to a new study (Nature 2023, DOI: 10.1038/s41586-023-05719-z). Though ...
