Bawendi made his first quantum dot breakthrough during his postdoctoral years working under Louis Brus, one of the researchers who discovered quantum dots in the 1980s and one of Bawendi’s ...

The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis discovered by Franz Fischer and his colleague Hans Tropsch at the former Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institut für Kohlenforschung is probably one of the most versatile chemical ...

A new company has entered the drug discovery space with what it calls a “chemistry-first” platform. Colorado-based Cime ...

This module explores the synthesis of amines with a focus on the reductive amination reaction. Numerous examples from the discovery and commercial manufacturing of pharmaceuticals are included. After ...

(1) Chemicals remove the 5’-hydroxyl protecting group. The nucleosides are rich in exposed hydroxyl and amino groups, so scientists use protecting groups to prevent unintended reactions with compounds ...

Enzymes, the core catalysts in life, drive critical biological processes ranging from metabolic regulation to energy ...

Ketones are the bread and butter of chemical synthesis, which is the process of building new, complex molecules from simpler ...
