Scientists Solve a Long-Standing Chemistry Challenge With Light-Driven Catalysis - Science News

Chemists have developed a light-driven method for producing a rare and highly strained molecular structure known as “housane.” Designing a new drug often starts with a basic but difficult task: making the exact molecular framework needed for a medicine to work. Some important drugs, including penicillin, depend on tiny ring-shaped structures made from three or […] Read more about this…

Challenging a Century-Old Belief: Scientists Rewrite the Rules of Light-Driven Chemistry - New Study/Science Updates

Researchers have uncovered a new mechanism in photochemistry showing that a molecule’s microenvironment can strongly influence how it reacts to light. A global team of scientists, led by researchers at QUT, is overturning a long-standing belief in photochemistry with findings that could influence areas from healthcare to advanced manufacturing. Their study, published in the Journal…
