Researchers Synthesis Complex Chiral Molecules with Potential Biological and Catalytic Activity

Chiral molecules are asymmetric in nature, like left and right hands, so superposing their mirror images is not possible. Molecules with matching chemical structure but different chirality can exhibit different activity. This makes chirality is a crucial factor in fields such as chemistry, biology, and pharmacology. Synthesis of molecules with specific chirality can be tricky, however it is a key goal of several chemists as they search for desired materials.
