Closed-vessel microwave synthesis is a highly effective technique for synthetic processes today. Since the technology is not restricted to a solvent boiling point, it can be applied to a much greater ...

David Gunn, Applications Manager at Milestone Inc., talks to AZoM about Parallel Microwave-Enhanced Synthesis for Reaction Screening. You have a range of products within your Microwave Synthesis ...

Macrocycles are an attractive class of molecules for use in biological screening. While smaller molecules have been used to bind in enzyme active sites and other protein pockets, larger molecules, ...

Chirality is a geometric property of some molecules and ions, and a chiral molecule/ion is non-superposable on its mirror image, just like our right and left hands. A number of chiral molecules can be ...

Oxetanes and other four-sided molecular rings have become increasingly common in drug design thanks to their small size and ability to add three-dimensionality to molecules. There are lots of oxetane ...

Chemists have coaxed vinyl cations to insert into C–H bonds of alkanes and arenes. In doing so, they’ve shown that this classic carbocation is capable of much more than previously thought. Although ...
