Nitrogen-nitrogen bond-containing cyclic compounds such as pyrazole, triazole, pyridazine and many others are critical building blocks for a variety of medicinal compounds, both natural and synthetic.

These compounds are arranged in a ring and, in this case, have a nitrogen atom. One of the stars of the show is pyridine, which gives way to piperidine, a cyclic amine that is of key importance in ...

To address this issue, the research team added a cyclic compound-type additive to the amine. This additive not only reduces the binding strength with carbon dioxide but also protects the amine ...

A team led by Donald Hilvert of ETH Zürich and Gonzalo Jiménez-Osés of Basque Research and Technology Alliance engineered a new enzyme to catalyze the Diels-Alder reaction, which breaks two ...

2016 Nobel Laureate in Chemistry Fraser Stoddart outlines his research involving mechanically interlocked molecules and molecular machines, and introduces the work of some of the students in his ...

A fungus linked to the deaths of archaeologists who excavated the tomb of King Tutankhamun in the 1920s could be used to ...

The new cyclic compounds had pleasant, much fainter odors and were easier to dissolve in water, meaning they can be formulated without high concentrations of alcohol. Some were as effective as DEET ...
