Chemical reactions are the backbone to nearly all biological processes, including those used to make new medicines. However, ...

Scientists at Kyoto University's Institute for Cell-Material Sciences have discovered a novel cluster compound that could prove useful as a catalyst. Compounds, called polyoxometalates, contain a ...

Scientists at Stellenbosch University have uncovered a rare class of plant compounds, flavoalkaloids, in Cannabis leaves for the first time. Using advanced two-dimensional chromatography and mass ...

Helium, the most noble of the noble gases, long thought to be completely inert and thus too standoffish to bond with other atoms, recently surprised chemists by forming chemical compounds after all.

Compound libraries form a foundational element of modern drug discovery—the process of identifying new chemical or biological compounds that can become safe and effective medicines. Compound libraries ...
