Chemists break down barriers between labs and institutions to join forces for a new way of doing organic synthesis. Chemists synthesized a highly complex natural molecule through a revolutionary ...

Researchers have used a cutting-edge robotic system capable of synthesizing hundreds of metal complexes to develop a possible ...

This rapid screening process identified an iridium-based antibiotic candidate that shows promise in human cells to kill bacteria while remaining nontoxic.

An international team of researchers has uncovered what might be a critical step in the chemical evolution of molecules in cosmic “stellar nurseries.” In these vast clouds of cold gas and dust in ...

Light-activated ruthenium chemistry has increased the potency of meropenem against NDM-1-mediated antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli in laboratory tests, which may point to a controllable ...

Many of you are familiar with “sandwich” compounds in which a metal atom is complexed between two five- to eight-membered aromatic rings. Early examples are ...

MIT scientists have achieved the first-ever lab synthesis of verticillin A, a complex fungal compound discovered in 1970. Its delicate structure stalled chemists for decades, despite differing from ...
