In recent years, the application β-Lactams has been extended over their antibacterial properties. They have been used as a carrier for selective oncolytic drugs and as a potential neuro-protective ...

Optically active hydroxy β-lactams are important compounds for the synthesis of many other molecules in chiral forms [1]. They are also important components of β-lactam antibiotics (a class of ...

In this study, chiral gold nanoparticles with a concave vortex cube structure were employed as the chiral substrate, exhibiting highly tunable optical chirality and intriguing chiral-induced spin ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Chirality is a critical concept in chemistry and life sciences, especially when applied to a molecular level. Many molecules such as amino acids, proteins, sugars, and DNA are ...

Chirality is an essential property in biology; the molecular building blocks of some of the most important biological structures, including DNA and proteins, are chiral. When a molecule is said to be ...
