"We found a way to produce polymers from the natural molecule lipoic acid in a very controlled way," explains Ben Feringa, Professor of Organic Chemistry at the University of Groningen. "It is a beautiful molecule and a perfect building block that was created by nature." The molecule has a ring structure that includes a sulfur-sulfur bond. When this bond is broken, the sulfur atoms can react with those of another monomer. "This process was known before, but we managed to find a way to control it and to create long polymers."

Chemical manufacturers frequently use toxic solvents such as alcohols and benzene to make products like pharmaceuticals and plastics. Researchers are examining a previously overlooked and misunderstood phenomenon in the chemical reactions used to make these products. This discovery brings a new fundamental understanding of catalytic chemistry and a steppingstone to...Read More>>>
