Chemists at UCLA have discovered a flaw in one of organic chemistry’s longstanding principles, challenging a rule that's ...

Oct. 30, 2024 — Research provides a deeper understanding of precisely what is happening in organic solar cells as light is converted into electricity. Researchers developed a new method which ...

Scientists have proven that a fundamental rule of organic chemistry isn't as unbreakable as everyone thought. Here's what it ...

For exactly 100 years, chemists have considered double bonds impossible – or nearly so – in organic chemistry under specific ...

UCLA chemists have overturned a century-old rule in organic chemistry that limited molecular design by proving that ...

Organic chemistry is the study of the synthesis, structure, reactivity and properties of the diverse group of chemical compounds primarily constructed of carbon. All life on earth is carbon-based ...

It is maintained from the income of the section's Norris Fund and is distinct from the ACS Northeastern Section's James Flack Norris Award, a local section award for outstanding achievement in the ...

According to Bredt's rule, double bonds cannot exist at certain positions on organic molecules if the molecule's geometry deviates too far from what we learn in textbooks. This rule has constrained ...
