Unlocking New Possibilities: How Nanorings Could Revolutionize Chemistry
Nanorings, tiny rings of carbon and nitrogen atoms, have been identified as potential ‘building blocks’ of complex chemical reactions, according to a new study. The findings, published in the journal Nature Chemistry, could open up new avenues for researchers to explore ways of manipulating and controlling chemical reactions.
Researchers at the University of Basel have uncovered the potential of nanorings as ‘building blocks’ in chemical reactions. Through a combination of theory and experiments, the researchers were able to show that nanorings can be used to create molecules with complex structures that have the potential to be used in a variety of applications, such as drug delivery and nanotechnology. The findings open up new possibilities for scientists to explore ways to control and manipulate chemical reactions.
