Recent studies have revealed that electrons passing through chiral molecules exhibit significant spin polarization—a ...

In the past several decades, significant progress has been made in controlling molecular chirality, as evidenced by the several Nobel Prizes in chemistry awarded in this area, particularly for ...

The diverse chiral space covered by enzymes can also ... and especially for chemical biologists working at the interface of chemistry and biology.

Scientists in Japan have uncovered a surprising twist, literally, in how molecules organize themselves. By introducing tiny leftover fragments from previous assemblies, they discovered a way to flip ...

Research suggests that calcium may have played a key role in guiding the development of a specific molecular handedness in ...

And together, the enantiomers might produce effects that are not common to either alone," says Isiah Warner, chairman of the chemistry department at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge.

The study identifies how trace residual aggregates in photo-responsive azobenzene solutions can reverse helical chirality through secondary nucleation. By using precise control of ultraviolet and ...

Researchers demonstrate reversible switching of supramolecular chirality using light, enabling new design strategies for optical and electronic materials.

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