Since many drugs exhibit chirality-dependent effectiveness, our new method should facilitate synthesis and development of pharmaceuticals and their precursors. Advanced Search Home ...

From living matter to molecules to elementary particles, the world is made of “chiral” objects that differ from their ...

Scientists at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) say they have invented a new technique for constructing chiral drug molecules, whose structural complexity allows them to have mirror-image ...

Chiral molecules are those whose structural complexity allows them to have mirror-image, "left-handed" and "right-handed" forms. For drug molecules, usually only one of those forms works - the ...

Emergence of chirality in drug development. One of the main features of the living world is its chirality 14,16,17 (). CHIRAL CENTRES are common in the amino-acid and carbohydrate building blocks ...

This "handedness" of the molecule (its chirality) can determine how it interacts with biological systems like the human body. In the 1950s, the chiral drug thalidomide was given to pregnant women ...

From 2001 to 2011, the US Food and Drug Administration approved 9 single-enantiomer drugs with racemic precursors. None showed pre-approval evidence of improved efficacy over the racemic precursor.

Overall, the development of chiral antitubercular drugs represents an important area of research for the treatment of TB. These drugs have the potential to overcome drug resistance and offer more ...

Most modern medicines and drugs are chiral and are marketed as racemates (equal mixtures of enantiomers), which in some cases can have unwanted consequences, Chanda says.
