โ€˜Stimulating discoveryโ€™ leads to strategy to swap oxygen in saturated rings Skeletal editing pushed beyond aromatic structures, sparking new opportunities in drug discovery

Photochemistry swaps the oxygen atom in oxetane rings with nitrogen, carbon, or sulfur at a single stroke. @mjkoh87.bsky.socialโ€™s team pushed skeletal editing beyond aromatic structures, a stimulating discovery in organic chemistry: www.chemistryworld.com/news/stimula... ๐Ÿงช #ChemSky @nature.com

Thank you very much @gomobel.bsky.social for highliting our work on @chemistryworld.com. Chiral acyl phosphates meet self-assembly..! Thanks also @claudiabonfio.bsky.social and @jeannecrassousiscr.bsky.social for the very nice comments about our work!!

Chiral chemical fuels trigger two very different supramolecular self-assemblies Handedness of self-assembling peptides might explain the origins of homochirality in biological systems

Really cool stuff by @pappasgroup.bsky.social in @angewandtechemie.bsky.social โ€“ chiral chemical fuels drive molecules to self-assemble into different structures, depending on handedness ๐Ÿงฌ My latest for @chemistryworld.com ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ www.chemistryworld.com/news/chiral-... #ChemSky #RealTimeChem #Chemistry
