A New Way to Build Molecules with Precision

December 24, 2025

Scientists have found a clever way to build complex molecules with high precision. They used a common chemical group, called a carboxylate, to guide the process. Normally, this group isn't very good at controlling the shape of the final molecule, but the researchers found a way around this problem. ...

A New Way to Make Coumarins: A Chemistry Breakthrough

August 6, 2025

Scientists have found a clever way to make coumarins, a group of compounds found in plants. They used a special catalyst to mix acid chlorides and alkynes, which are types of molecules. This method is unique because it doesn't need any extra steps or special conditions. The catalyst, which is like a
