Nobel prize in chemistry 2022

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27, 2022 — To assist with coverage of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, the American Chemical Society (ACS) will issue a statement from ACS President Angela K. Wilson, Ph.D., after the official announcement is made from Stockholm on Wednesday, Oct. 5. Wilson will be available for interviews beginning at 6:15 a.m. ET on that day. Many past winners of the chemistry prize have been ACS members and authors of research papers published in ACS’ suite of more than 70 peer-reviewed scientific journals. The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which awards the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, plans to announce this year’s winner(s) around 5:45 a.m. ET on Oct. 5. Wilson will be available for Zoom interviews from 6:15 to 10 a.m. ET. Journalists interested in talking with Wilson must schedule an interview in advance by contacting the ACS newsroom by 5 p.m. ET on Oct. 3. Scheduling will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Wilson is the John A. Hannah distinguished professor of chemistry, associate dean for strategic initiatives, and director of the Center for Quantum Computing, Science, and Engineering (MSU-Q) at Michigan State University. She earned her bachelor's degree in chemistry at Eastern Washington University and her Ph.D. in chemical physics from the University of Minnesota. She was a postdoctoral fellow at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. From 2016–18, she led the division of chemistry at the National Science Foundation. She has been a member of ACS since ...

Clauser, Alain Aspect, and Anton Zeilinger won the 10 million Swedish krona ($915,000) prize for "experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science," the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, which is responsible for selecting the Nobel laureates in physics, announced Tuesday (Oct. 4). The trio's work focuses on quantum entanglement, a process in which two or more quantum particles are coupled so that any change in one particle will lead to a simultaneous change in the other, even if they are separated by vast, even infinite, distances. This effect gives quantum computers the ability to perform multiple calculations simultaneously, exponentially boosting their processing power over those of conventional devices.

Albert Einstein dubbed the phenomenon "spooky action at a distance" and propose...

• Twitter • Linked In • Facebook • Reddit • Wechat • Email Let's start out with the concept of "click chemistry" in general. That was an idea from Sharpless and co-workers that developed in the 1990s and was the subject of a Angewandte Chemie in 2001. A "click" reaction is one that takes place very quickly and cleanly between two different functional groups. The absolute ideal would be Functional Group A, which reacts with nothing else in the world except Functional Group B and vice versa, and immediately does so irreversibly to make a new stable structure when the two encounter each other, without the need for other reagents or any sort of strenous conditions. Reactions that approach this ideal are some types of cycloadditions and also ring opening of strained heterocycles, and a step or two behind those are some Michael reactions and other additions to alkenes or alkynes, some other nucleophilic displacement reactions, and some carbonyl condensations. If you're a non-chemist and have little idea of what those things are, don't worry about it - it's the "quick and clean" idea that's the key. Why is this stuff interesting or useful? There were quite a few people asking just those questions twenty years ago, as I well recall. " Yeah, sure, some reactions are faster than others, or go without us having to beat on them - so?" is one general response, summed up. But Sharpless' insight was to realize what some optimized click reactions could provide, which was a universal, modu...

The 2022 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to Carolyn R. Bertozzi, Morten Meldal and K. Barry Sharpless for the development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry. Click chemistry – independently reported in 2002 by Meldal and Sharpless – reacts two molecules together in a simple and efficient way. The practical and reliable nature of click reactions swiftly made them popular for the synthesis of small well-defined molecules as well as extended materials such as polymers. The utility of the click chemistry concept was successfully demonstrated beyond the reaction flask by Bertozzi, who showed that it could be applied in living systems to, for example, probe glycans on cell surfaces. By designing these reactions to be biocompatible they do not interfere with the chemistry of natural systems and in this way has underpinned the burgeoning field of bioorthogonal chemistry. In this Collection, Nature Portfolio recognizes the achievements of the Laureates in a selection of research, review, news and opinion articles that highlight the development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry over the past two decades. The organizing principles of click chemistry help scientists make molecules for a variety of applications. Such democratization of synthesis is challenging and rewarding, as useful simplicity is difficult to achieve. We reflect on this and look forward, hoping to continue to tie the joy of functional discovery to the challenges of synthetic chemist...
