Chemists at UCLA are showing that some of organic chemistry’s most famous “rules” aren’t as unbreakable as once thought. By creating bizarre, cage-shaped molecules with warped double bonds—structures long considered impossible—the team is opening the door to entirely new kinds of chemistry.
This is an opening for a huge jump in medicine and other chemistry related discoveries/creations
Yes and no, this is giving more possibilities. There’s no strong indication that these will actually be useful in those fields. But yes, it’s always cool to have a new class of shapes to play with.
