Chirality: like a right hand and a left hand, two molecules can have the same composition, but a different shape and ...

Chemists at the University of Geneva and University of Pisa have crafted a novel family of chiral molecules whose mirror-image “handedness” remains rock-solid for tens of thousands of years. By ...

Researchers have developed a new family of remarkably stable chiral molecules. This work opens up new prospects for the ...

Can you imagine a life-saving molecule whose “twin” is a deadly poison? As surprising as it may seem, this chemical reality is known as “chirality”. Like a right hand and a left hand, two molecules ...

Tetra-substituted alkenes – carbon–carbon double bonds surrounded by four different chemical groups – are a surprisingly ...

By leveraging the concept of chirality, or the difference of a shape from its mirror image, EPFL scientists have engineered ...

An international team of researchers, including scientists at Lawerence Livermore National Laboratory, has successfully measured the atomic structure of liquid carbon for the first time, according to ...
