'Lost' Miller-Urey experiment created more of life's building blocks

A classic experiment proving amino acids are created when inorganic molecules are exposed to electricity isn't the whole story, it turns out. The 1953 Miller-Urey Synthesis had two sibling studies, neither of which was published. Vials containing the products from those experiments were recently recovered and reanalyzed using modern technology ...

Amino Group Chemistry: From Synthesis to the Life Sciences

Here, probably the most important functional group in organic chemistry is discussed in one handy volume. The monograph covers its application from natural products to synthetic pharmaceuticals detailing complex syntheses using the amino group as templates and modern techniques focussing on the introduction of the amino group. This is a definitive must have for every chemist.
