The mid-nineteenth century saw the development of a radical new direction in chemistry ... this 'theory of valence' to propose structures for many simple organic molecules in 1858, and in the ...

Where methods are directed towards a narrow range of structures, the importance of these targets must be clearly justified. We welcome studies on catalysis, including metal catalysis, organocatalysis, ...

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 ...

The Interest Groups are member driven groups which exist to benefit RSC members, and the wider chemical science community, in line with the RSC's strategy and charter. To provide a focal point for ...

Organic chemistry is the study of the synthesis, structure, reactivity and properties of the diverse group of chemical compounds primarily constructed of carbon. All life on earth is carbon-based ...

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