The consistency suggests that scientists can use theoretical calculations to predict new synthesis routes for other compounds. (carnegiescience.edu)
The researchers propose synthesis routes for the two chemicals that suggest the fungi produce them from a third, previously known pigment. (scientificamerican.com)
While conventional carbonaceous catalysts have amorphous carbonaceous structures that cause a decline in catalytic activities, the new synthesis route enables the formation of carbonaceous catalysts with controlled chemical structures like organic - based catalysts (Fig. 1b). (sciencedaily.com)
