Chirality is discussed, followed by enantiomers, diastereomers, racemic mixtures, and meso compounds. Optical activity and ... Problems on identifying chiral and achiral compounds and counting chiral ...

A team of chemists has made significant strides in the field of mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs). Their work showcases the development of a compact catenane with tuneable mechanical chirality ...

Studies have shown that chiral MIMs can be constructed using achiral components by leveraging mechanical bonds the right way. Since the chirality appears solely from specific co-conformations ...
