The Möbius strip, a twisted loop with one continuous surface, is inspiring chemists to create new molecular structures. A team has synthesized a type of carbon-based molecule with an unprecedented ...

Chemists have created the first-ever half-Möbius molecule. The orbitals of the 13-carbon ring twist by only a quarter turn ...

Drug discovery is like molecular Tetris. Chemists snap atoms together, adjusting the pieces until everything fits and suddenly, a molecule makes a promising new medicine. Normally, creating better ...

A team led by Abigail Doyle at the University of California, Los Angeles, found that phosphines can show transition- metal-like reactivity in a light-driven reaction between amine-containing rings and ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have developed a new chemical technique that could make it far easier to build complex proteins used in modern medicines, including next-generation cancer therapies. The ...

Populations of suburban deer have been on the rise across the U.S. for the last 50 years. Suburban landscapes are like buffet ...

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by progressive cognitive decline and ...
