The origins of life remain a major mystery. How were complex molecules able to form and remain intact for prolonged periods without disintegrating? A team has demonstrated a mechanism that could have ...

A new study, published in Physical Review Letters and led by researchers from the Institute of Modern Physics (IMP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), has demonstrated that a Coulomb explosion ...

Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), a team of astronomers led by Abubakar Fadul from the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy (MPIA) has discovered complex organic ...

Organic chemistry features a wide array of reactions for creating complex molecules, among which the Diels–Alder reaction stands out for its versatility and precision. This reaction enables the ...

Chemists developed a way to synthesize complex molecules called oligocyclotryptamines, originally found in plants, which could hold potential as antibiotics, analgesics, or anticancer drugs. MIT ...

MIT chemists have developed a new way to synthesize complex molecules that were originally isolated from plants and could hold potential as antibiotics, analgesics, or cancer drugs. These compounds, ...

Researchers devised a method to extract macrocycles by precisely cleaving crystals, bypassing stepwise synthesis and enabling direct access to complex molecules. (Nanowerk News) A team of ICN2 ...

ATRIMED today shared an update on a long running research effort led in part by physician scientist Dr. Latha Damle, whose work alongside her husband and research partner, Dr. Damle, has helped build ...

This artist’s impression shows the planet-forming disc around the star V883 Orionis. In the outermost part of the disc, volatile gases are frozen out as ice, which contains complex organic molecules.

Researchers at the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2) have developed a pioneering method for obtaining various types of organic molecule through a process of molecular 'cutting ...
