The origin of life from Earth’s primordial chemistry has long fascinated and perplexed us. Generations of scientists have endeavored to understand how complex biochemistry developed from organic ...

In contrast to conventional organic synthesis, mechanochemistry does not use solvents that eventually become industrial wastes. Thus, mechanochemistry is environmentally friendly and enables us to ...

The electrodes are coated with carbon nanotubes. As they flow through the reactor, the reactants interact weakly with the carbon nanotubes, exposing them to the electric field. This induces electronic ...

Figure 1. LoRA-Chem: From Model Customization to Organic Chemistry Reaction Tasks. (a) Several machine learning algorithm paradigms applied to organic chemistry. (b) Inspired by AI-driven image style ...

Professor Subhabrata Sen and his team have won the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Horizon Prize for pioneering a novel method that promises cleaner, more efficient organic synthesis. The 2025 Organic ...

Organic chemist Bruce Lipshutz had a bit of a rude awakening. It was around 2007, and the head of environmental health and safety (EH&S) at the University of California, Santa Barbara, sat Lipshutz ...

As a graduate student at the University of California, Berkeley, Mark Levin started sketching out ideas for how to do something no chemist had ever managed before: swapping one of the carbon atoms in ...
