The class of nitrogen-containing molecules called diazo compounds has revealed a hidden talent: coupling with certain diazo partners to form carbon-carbon double bonds (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., DOI: ...

Organic chemists are molecular architects, designing sophisticated structures. As the molecules used in science and medicine become ever more complex, new tools are needed to piece together the ...

Chemists have discovered a way to use visible light to synthesize a class of compounds particularly well suited for use in pharmaceuticals. The class of compounds, called azetidines, had been ...

UCLA chemists proved that some of chemistry’s oldest rules can be broken—and new molecules emerge when they are.

University of Michigan chemists have discovered a way to use visible light to synthesize a class of compounds particularly well suited for use in pharmaceuticals. The class of compounds, called ...
