A team of chemists at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology has succeeded in pulling an oxygen atom from a molecule and replacing it with a nitrogen atom. In their study, published in ...

Heterocycles, molecular rings found in many pharmaceuticals, have a reputation for stubbornly resisting modification. That is, in a heterocycle, heteroatoms of one type aren’t easily swapped for ...

Researchers at the University of Oklahoma have developed a breakthrough method of adding a single nitrogen atom to molecules, unlocking new possibilities in drug research and development. Now ...

One small atom can make a big difference in a molecule’s pharmacological properties. Especially if that atom is a nitrogen. Chemists at the University of Oklahoma have now unveiled a new strategy for ...

A copper-nickel dual-atom material reported in Nature Communications converts carbon dioxide into carbon monoxide at high ...

Multi-titanium hydrides can selectively snip the strong structural bonds of stable organic molecules called pyridines, RIKEN ...

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 ...

A single flat metalens now handles both excitation and fluorescence collection for diamond quantum sensors, enabling ...
