Taking advantage of this phenomenon, the researchers in this study inserted chirality into an originally achiral compound and created a compact catenane with mechanical chirality. The technique is ...

1.5 Unit 1 homework (20 minutes outside class). Problems on identifying chiral and achiral compounds and counting chiral centers in pharmaceuticals used to treat and prevent malaria.

Broadening the study away from achiral fibres, an intrinsically chiral aggregate gives a 'true' CD signal because the chiral centres in the component molecules lead to a chiral arrangement of the ...

Their starting molecule was an achiral ring-shaped molecule (BPBox²⁺) with a box-like shape that was synthesized by replacing the two bipyridinium units in CBPQT⁴⁺ with slightly different ...
