The Molecule of the Month (chm.bris.ac.uk)

Oh this is just great. As a connaisseur of molecular compounds, this is a well-rounded set, and I wonder why I never saw this website before.

From DMT to phosphine to octanone to dioxin to novichok agents... they're all there. Hallucinogens, carcinogens, chemical weapons. Cool stuff, and well-written stories to go with the molecules.

Nice, now I can procrastinate this afternoon

Why does this webdesign make me feel so happy?

The old hacker news hug of death...

Since it is down, an alternative MOTM is the one from the PDB:

More protein oriented, however.

The American Chemical Society (ACS, predominant professional organization for us chemists) does a Molecule of the Week:
