Chemistry (Section C)

Chemistry and structure in Acta Crystallographica Section C.

Special Section: Organometallic Chemistry

The overview describes the industrial application of homogeneous catalysts for the chemical industry. In the first part, some theoretical background is given on organometallic complexes and homogeneous catalysis followed by a description of the prerequisites and current problems for their industrial application. Selected examples of industrially useful catalysts for the manufacture of bulk and ...

Medicinal chemistry section.

The Medicinal Chemistry Section is part of the Experimental Therapeutics Interdisciplinary Programme that is dedicated to early Drug Discovery activities in the oncology field. Our mission is to discover and to develop new anticancer agents based on novel hypotheses and targets generated by CNIO’s Basic Research Groups, and to do so in close collaboration with these groups. Medicinal chemists a...

Special Section: Chemistry and Biology

Pyroglutamic acid or 5-oxoproline is the cyclic lactam of glutamic acid. Its presence in living cells has been reported from archaebacteria to humans, and its occurrence in living cells has been known for over a century. Despite its almost ubiquitous presence, the role of pyroglutamic acid in living cells is poorly understood. Pyroglutamic acid is found as an N-terminal modification in many neu...
