New pharmaceuticals, cleaner fuels, biodegradable plastics: in order to meet society's needs, chemists have to develop new synthesis methods to obtain new products that do not exist in their natural ...

The fixed idea that DNA is only a molecule that stores genetic information is being challenged. KAIST researchers have ...

Chemical reactions often produce messy mixtures of different products. Hence, chemists spend a lot of time coaxing their reactions to be more selective to make particular target molecules. Now, an ...

A key objective of ongoing research rooted in molecular physics is to understand and precisely control chemical reactions at very low temperatures. At low temperatures, the chemical reactions between ...

A team develops a nanoreactor combining magnetic material and plasmonic catalysts. Remote control of step-by-step catalytic reactions of precursor led to cinnamaldehyde product with 95% yield. Various ...

Spatiotemporal regulation of multistep enzyme reactions through compartmentalization is essential in studies that mimic natural systems such as cells and organelles. Until now, scientists have used ...
