Molecular reshuffle offers new control over chirality in long-standing chemical reactions

January 12, 2026
A research team led by Professor Andrew Smith at the University of St Andrews has identified a previously unrecognized molecular rearrangement that helps explain how chirality can be controlled in a reaction long thought to be unpredictable. The finding resolves an 80-year-old problem in reaction chemistry and provides new guidance for designing selective processes used
