A team has reported on the rapid generation of new fluorinated molecular fragments for drug discovery using organocatalysis. Fluorine is found rarely in naturally occurring organic molecules. However, ...

(Nanowerk News) A research group led by Prof. WAN Yinhua from the Institute of Process Engineering (IPE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has proposed a chemoenzymatic cascade reaction for green ...

image: An one-pot chemoenzymatic cascade reaction to synthesize chiral alcohol was realized by using the highly active and selective enzyme-metal-single-atom hybrid as the catalyst. The ...

Chemists have used domino-like reactions to make complex organic molecules that differ from naturally occurring compounds by just one atom. This article was produced in partnership with the author by ...

Fluorine is found rarely in naturally occurring organic molecules. However, this chemical element is indispensable for the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Synthetic chemistry has an ...
