Chemists and chemical engineers at California Institute of Technology, working with a pair of colleagues from the University ...

they achieved a single-step synthesis of a chiral version of a cancer drug molecule called an HDAC inhibitor—whose standard, patented synthesis method requires 10 steps and a costly separation ...

Chiral nanomaterials can be used to develop highly sensitive and selective sensing platforms for the detection and separation of chiral molecules. By exploiting the specific interactions between ...
