Adding phenanthrene as a co-guest let the second-generation crystalline sponge (2G-CS) method determine X-ray structures for 24 of 30 small, low-polarity C₁₅ molecules, mostly sesquiterpenoids. Under standard conditions, none of the 30 gave guest-containing crystals. Eleven of th

Adding phenanthrene as a co-guest let the second-generation crystalline sponge (2G-CS) method determine X-ray structures for 24 of 30 small, low-polarity C₁₅ molecules, mostly sesquiterpenoids. Under standard conditions, none of the 30 gave guest-containing crystals. Eleven of the 24 structures had not been reported before, including that of the liquid hydrocarbon longifolene.

A chiral version of the cage gave the absolute configurations of five compounds.

What sorts of nudges win wallet share in the attention economy?

Nudges—the subtle interventions that encourage people to make beneficial decisions without forcing them into these choices—are a popular marketing tool widely used for a variety of social causes and business purposes. But their effectiveness depends on finding the right combinati

Researchers highlight ferroptosis's dual roles in plant immunity

When plants encounter pathogens, they can defend themselves by rapidly killing infected cells to restrict pathogen spread. This immune response, known as the hypersensitive response (HR), was first described in 1915. However, the molecular mechanism underlying HR cell death remai
