Having occupied a state-of-the-art building, merged the Departments of Chemistry and Medicinal Chemistry, and added several recent faculty, the research activity of the medicinal chemistry program is ...

Medicinal chemistry deals with the design, optimization and development of chemical compounds for use as drugs. It is inherently a multidisciplinary topic — beginning with the synthesis of ...

Triple click chemistry has revolutionized chemical synthesis with its simplicity and efficiency, allowing for the quick and selective assembly of complex molecules. Now, in a recent study, researchers ...

Middle molecules with a molecular weight of more than 1,000 are difficult to synthesize due to multiple steps and time-consuming nature, demanding the development of a new approach that can overcome ...

Chemists at Emory University have invented a reaction to streamline the total synthesis of a compound, phaeocaulisin A, ...

"The proposed method enables the simple synthesis of multifunctional molecules and a wide variety of medium-sized molecules, and we expect it to be widely useful in pharmaceutical science, medicinal ...

Researchers have pioneered a new catalytic transformation that converts epoxides into fluorinated oxetanes, a coveted but difficult-to-make class of drug molecules that escaped synthetic preparation ...

Chemistry is a branch of science that involves the study of the composition, structure and properties of matter. Often known as the central science, it is a creative discipline chiefly concerned ...

Furin is identified as the key enzyme responsible for cleaving the apelin precursor. Inhibiting this cleavage could serve as ...

Researchers have developed a new material that could help to remove unwanted pollutants — including leftover medicines and ...
