Chiral PCBs (*2) are PCBs that have two mirror-image isomers (*3); these isomers are identical reflections of each other with the same composition.

A team of chemists at the University of Cambridge has developed a metal-free way to convert symmetrical diols selectively into one of two mirror-image isomers. In their paper published in the ...

PDR-Chiral’s latest software products include the Auto MDS for method development and AutoPrep for purification. These modules can be integrated into other systems, which then can be operated ...

Researchers in Japan have successfully created chiral nanostructures from particles of gold. The trick was to use circularly polarized light to generate electric fields.

Supramolecular structures can be chiral even if made up of entirely achiral components. Now researchers have found a way to maintain supramolecular chirality through a rigid structure that induces ...

Achiral minerals often adopt a chiral shape when crystal growth proceeds in contact with chiral molecules. Now, detailed microscopic insight is provided into how the chiral footprint of ...
