In a discovery that’s sending ripples through the chemistry world, UCLA scientists have proven that a fundamental rule of ...

According to Bredt's rule, double bonds cannot exist at certain positions on organic molecules if the molecule's geometry deviates too far from what we learn in textbooks. This rule has constrained ...

"It destroys creativity when we have rules that supposedly can't be overcome," the California-based researchers said.
