A major step toward simpler drug development has been taken at the University of Gothenburg. In a new study, researchers have developed stable boron-fluorine compounds that make it possible to ...

Scientists at the Institute of Science Tokyo (Science Tokyo) have successfully realized the highly selective asymmetric 1,6 ...

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

Using robots and click chemistry, scientists built potential active ingredients for future antibiotics that contain metal.

Chemists have created a highly reactive chemical compound that has eluded scientists for more than 120 years. The discovery could lead to new drug treatments, safer agricultural products, and better ...

Host–guest chemistry is a vibrant area of supramolecular science that explores the encapsulation of smaller guest molecules within the cavities of larger host compounds, leading to the formation of ...

Researchers have discovered that natural "sunscreen" compounds found in algae and cyanobacteria may also support skin and heart health. By comparing two mycosporine-like amino acids, the team showed ...

Instead of killing bacteria, scientists found a way to gently guide gut microbes to produce compounds linked to longevity and healthier aging.

Researchers found previously unknown compounds in roasted coffee that strongly blocked alpha glucosidase, a digestive enzyme linked to post meal blood sugar spikes. In lab tests, three compounds ...

Science is frequently a collaborative discipline. But sometimes, one person, working alone, makes a stunning discovery that changes a scientific field forever. Neil Bartlett, while working alone in ...
