Certain organic molecules are chiral meaning that they are not superimposable on their mirror image. Chiral molecules contain one or more chiral centers, which are almost always …

In chemistry, a molecule or ion is called chiral (/ ˈkaɪrəl /) if it cannot be superposed on its mirror image by any combination of rotations, translations, and some conformational changes.

In this article, we review the nomenclature, pharmacology, toxicology, pharmacokinetics, metabolism etc of some usual chiral drugs as well as their mechanisms. Different techniques …

Chirality essentially means 'mirror-image, non-superimposable molecules', and to say that a molecule is chiral is to say that its mirror image (it must have one) is not the same as it self. …

A molecule or ion is chiral if it is non-superimposable, i.e. it can not be superimposed on its mirror image. This geometric property of a molecule is called chirality. Chiral molecules don’t have a …

A chiral molecule and its enantiomer have the same chemical and physical properties (boiling point, melting point,polarity, density etc...). It turns out that many of our biological molecules …

The Diels-Alder reaction utilizing a chiral Lewis acid is truly a practical synthetic transformation, not only because the products obtained are synthetically useful, but also because a catalytic …

This blog explores the hidden handedness of chiral chemistry in household products, food and beverages, and other common examples, highlighting their significance and impact.
