Neil Garg is leading the charge to rewrite a fundamental principle that's been part of organic chemistry since 1924 -- ...

UCLA chemists have found a big problem with a fundamental rule of organic chemistry that has been around for 100 years—it's ...

Oct. 30, 2024 — Research provides a deeper understanding of precisely what is happening in organic solar cells as light is converted into electricity. Researchers developed a new method which ...

UCLA chemists have overturned a century-old rule in organic chemistry that limited molecular design by proving that ...

Scientists have proven that a fundamental rule of organic chemistry isn't as unbreakable as everyone thought. Here's what it ...

The research team has successfully created molecules that violate Bredt's rule, opening up new possibilities in molecular design and pharmaceutical research.

UCLA scientists just published a paper in the journal Science that disproves Bredt's rule, which has “constrained chemists ...

Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds. Most organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen, but they may ...

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 ...

For exactly 100 years, chemists have considered double bonds impossible – or nearly so – in organic chemistry under specific ...

FOR some time past the student of organic chemistry has been amply provided with text-books and manuals dealing with the theory and facts of the science, but even now his choice is very limited ...

While we generally assume that we’re looking for carbon-based lifeforms in a water-rich environment like Jupiter’s moon Europa, what if complex organic chemistry would be just as happy with ...
