Recognizing a molecule’s chirality is crucial. From C&EN, that statement shouldn’t surprise you. It would, in fact, be controversial for a chemistry magazine to say otherwise. But chirality is also complicated, even for us.
On the morning of Oct. 7, the Nobel Committee for Chemistry once again rewarded chemists whose work furthered our understanding of asymmetric catalysis and its applications, proving that, yes, we should (still) care about chirality.
As a team, we sprang into action to report the news on our website, social media, and podcast platforms.
