Wouldn't it be great if we could create any material we want, and that material would behave exactly as we would like it to? Here's how chemists are trying to do that!
The First Chemical Synthesis of Griffipavixanthone: Bringing out Intellectual and Artistic Virtuosity in Synthetic Chemistry
How do synthetic chemists use fundamental, yet robust reactions to chemicals stitch together smaller fragments large and complex natural products? The Porco's Lab latest work might give you a taste of what it's like to exercise the art of total synthesis with a hint of inspiration from biology.
