To help students learn to recognize common organic functional groups when given chemical formulas and names, students can use an organic chemistry functional group playing card deck to play any card ...

Researchers employed the gold electrode and attached the target molecules onto the electrode. Just like functional groups generate diverse electronic effects, one electrode fits all reactions as the ...

Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) represents a particularly interesting method among the living polymerization techniques. A unique feature of all metathesis polymerizations is the ...

Aliphatic alcohols are cheap, widely available, and very stable building blocks for chemical synthesis and drug discovery. Now, a team of chemists has found a way to add functional groups to them in ...

Unexpected toxicity is an all-too-frequent cause for removing an otherwise successful drug candidate from the development pipeline or even withdrawing a potential blockbuster drug once it’s on the ...
