AI Summary
This article discusses a new method developed by researchers to determine the chiral structure of molecules using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. This advancement will significantly reduce the time-consuming process of determining the exact spatial arrangement of atoms in molecules, potentially becoming a standard tool for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
Researchers developed a new method that allows, for the first time, to elucidate the chiral structure of molecules — the exact spatial arrangement of the atoms — by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. This important step in the development of new drugs used to be a time-consuming process until now. The new method could now become a standard tool for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
