Chemists at UCLA are showing that some of organic chemistry’s most famous “rules” aren’t as unbreakable as once thought. By ...

For many decades, the method to obtain atomic-level descriptions of chemical compounds and materials—be it a drug, a catalyst ...

It uses a system called simplified molecular-input line-entry system (SMILES). This translates chemical 3D structures into ...

Researchers synthesized weird molecules that exist in three dimensions, breaking Bredt's rule and helping to develop future ...

By changing the physical structure of gold at the nanoscale, researchers can drastically change how the material interacts with light and, as a result, its electronic and optical properties.

Scientists use AI to generate designs of potential new molecules, a process that is 10 times faster and more precise.

Organic chemistry is packed with rules about structure and reactivity, especially when it comes to making and breaking ...

Researchers from Drexel University who discovered a versatile type of two-dimensional conductive nanomaterial, called a MXene ...

Scientists have broken a century-old chemistry rule by creating “impossible” molecules. The breakthrough could reshape drug design, materials science and how chemistry is taught worldwide.

These chemical oddities may explain why Earth seems to be deficient in certain elements — and could prove useful in catalysts ...

Scientists report the first confirmed detection of thiepine, a complex sulfur-bearing molecule, in an interstellar cloud near the Milky Way’s center.

Researchers from the labs of Professors Vinayak Dravid and Omar Farha developed a high-resolution approach to map ...
