In the world of organic chemistry, nitrogen-containing organic compounds are ubiquitous, forming the backbone of ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising new layer of complexity in Cannabis, identifying dozens of previously unknown compounds—including the first-ever evidence of rare molecules called flavoalkaloids ...

Two new skeletal editing techniques offer a way to create an array of nitrogen-containing rings. Nitrogen heterocycles are ...

A Texas A&M University study published in Nutrients has identified how compounds in coffee activate NR4A1, a receptor tied to stress response, inflammation, metabolism, and tissue repair. Researchers ...

Scientists don’t know the limits of chemical space—the collection of all possible molecules—but a new analysis concludes chemists have discovered new compounds in that space at an exponential rate ...

Roasted coffee may do more than wake you up—it could help control blood sugar. Researchers discovered several new coffee compounds that inhibit α-glucosidase, a key enzyme linked to type 2 diabetes.

Texas A&M University researchers have identified NR4A1, a receptor tied to stress response and tissue repair, as a potential pathway through which coffee compounds may promote health and influence ...

These leafy greens are loaded with flavor and nutrients—and studies show that even small doses are filled with compounds that ...

The idea behind the caging technique is that a molecule of interest can be rendered biologically inert (or caged) by chemical modification with a photoremovable protecting group (Fig. 1). Illumination ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – The synthetic pesticides used to control bed bug infestations face two problems: the insects are gaining a tolerance to them, and many consumers are looking for “green” ...
