The placement of nitrogen in natural products is therefore determined by the monooxygenase's preference for oxygen incorporation. The complex oxidation machinery is based on molecular shape ...

University of Missouri researchers and collaborators have developed a new chemical tool that could help lower the cost of ...

"By selectively adding one nitrogen atom to these existing drug heterocycles in the later stages of development, we can change the molecule's biological and pharmacological properties without ...

One small atom can make a big difference in a molecule’s pharmacological properties. Especially if that atom is a nitrogen. Chemists at the University of Oklahoma have now unveiled a new ...

The nitrogen molecule is composed of two nitrogen atoms joined by a triple covalent bond, thus making the molecule highly inert and nonreactive. Nitrogenase catalyzes the breaking of this bond and ...

Explain that a molecule of ammonia has 1 nitrogen atom and 3 hydrogen atoms. Ask students to use Snap Cubes to make an ammonia molecule. Then show students the animated Snap Cube model of an ammonia ...

University of Missouri researchers and collaborators have developed a new chemical tool that could help lower the cost of ...

A recent study demonstrates the potential of nuclear electric resonance to control the nuclear spins of nitrogen atoms in DNA ...

Researchers have developed a new chemical tool that could help lower the cost of prescription medications. The tool, called AshPhos, is a ligand, or molecule, that makes it easier to create special ...
