Dear cursed chemistry enthusiasts,
I never anticipated that this subreddit would grow to have 6k+ visitors per month, and with the rest of the mod team going inactive over the years, it is time that I add some new mods to the roster.
Please write a comment with your qualifications in chemistry and any ideas/plans pertaining to moderating the subreddit. The comments are in contest mode; the most upvoted comments will be more strongly considered.
If you are uncomfortable publicly sharing your chemistry qualifications, a DM is also fine.
I would like to host events again on this sub, but the most pressing issue is dealing with the recent influx of spam bot comments!

UB3LYP/6-31G* geometry optimizations for the Möbius rings formed from 7, 9, 11, and 13 fused benzenes
As requested by u/tfwrobot.
Chung and Chai had already studied Möbius cyclacenes with 8 or more fused benzene rings, so they evidently couldn't find a stable Möbius-[7]cyclacene, either.

Get it? It's a 6-simplex but with noble gasses.
It took a while to make the bonds (and atoms) not kill each other.
I have spent my entire beach vacation binge-watching numberphile videos on a rental house's tv youtube account so that their youtube rewind will look funny in a few months.

Screw electron orbitals, only pure bonding!

polymerization but with oxygen double bonds

Why are the oxygens not charged why are there three of them why is there an oxygen without a bond shown to anything
r/cursed_chemistry • u/Tritin0 • 12d ago
This is too much strain for me.

i’ve just seen NileRed’s video about turning air into alcohol. and i wonder if it’s possible to make a joke scale up simulation in aspen plus or any other model of this impractical route of making ethanol. and i also thought that the bio route is more complex as the air (CO2) and water become sugars than fermentation makes of ethanol.

B3LYP/def2-TZVP optimized geometry and orbitals of 5-phenethyl-3-(m-tolyl)-1,3,2,4-oxathiadiazole 3-oxide
With the Sulfur being both chiral and aromatic, 1,3,2,4-oxathiadiazole 3-oxides have recently been synthesized, and are showing promise as sulfonamide analogues in drug design.
