Scientists have found a simple and effective way to create special molecules called bridged biaryls. They did this by combining alcohols with a specific type of biaryl oxazepine that has fluoroalkyl groups attached. Using a catalyst called chiral phosphoric acid, they were able to add the alcohols t
This week, Boston saw some serious action. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers were out in full force, snagging a bunch of dangerous criminals. We're talking about gang members, murder suspects, and even a fellow from Haiti who wasn't too happy about being caught. This guy had a long
Almost everyone in the Qassim region of Saudi Arabia knows about organ donation. But do they support it? Organ donation is a lifesaving procedure where organs or tissues are transferred from one person to another when their organs fail. The success of this procedure relies heavily on community suppo
Think about all the devices you use daily: laptops, phones, tablets, even those tiny smartwatches. They all need power, and the NOVOO 100W USB-C Charger is here to save the day—and your outlets! This tiny charger packs a big punch, thanks to GaN III technology. It’s not just speedy; it’s smart, safe
Morgan Stanley's top boss, James Pick, recently chatted with CNBC about the bank's stance on cryptocurrencies. He spilled the beans on how they plan to collaborate with U. S. regulators to dive deeper into the crypto world. This chat happened at the big-shot event, the World Economic Forum, in Davos
Ever heard of manganese? It's a metal that our body needs in small doses, but an overdose can cause big trouble. Overexposure to manganese can lead to brain damage, making it behave like Parkinson's disease. Astrocytes, which are like assistants in the brain, are supposed to clean up a protein calle
Scientists created four unique materials by mixing organic and inorganic parts. Two of these, known as compound 1 and 2, had a layered structure. Compound 2, however, stood out with a special tubular design made of pyridine, which was linked to a negatively charged ion. These materials, known as POM
In a surprising turn of events, a group of drug traffickers was taken down by an unexpected informant: a pet French Bulldog named Bob. These criminals were involved in a major drug operation that shipped 448 kg of amphetamines, worth around $46 million, from the UK to Australia. The drugs were hidde
President Trump has signed an order to withdraw the U. S. from the World Health Organization (WHO). This move could cut a significant chunk of the WHO's funding, as the U. S. is one of its largest contributors. The reason given by the White House is that the WHO demands too much money from the U. S.
Scientists are delving into a unique way to improve organic semiconductors by slightly altering their molecular structure. They did this by adding ethynyl groups to a compound called dihydrodiazapentacene, creating new molecules named 2a and 2b. These molecules look similar to their original forms,
