Reactions that alter organic scaffolds by a single atom are already proving useful, but time will tell if they’ll ...

The skeletal editing of pyridines is a useful technique in organic synthesis, and one which is promising as regards the development of new drugs. The process resembles an operation on a molecule ...

The authors think that a shift towards high-carbonate and high-alkaline habitats might have encouraged biomineralization, allowing the organisms to evolve simple calcium-based skeletal structures ...
