Chemistry World October 28, 2013 Jennifer Newton	Crystal within a crystal Colleagues at the University of Strasbourg used a molecular tectonics strategy to prepare the crystals.
Chemistry World October 28, 2013 Edward Anderson	More dead ends and detours en route to successful total synthesis In this book Miguel A Sierra and his co-authors revisit their 2004 coverage of 'tales of the unexpected' in complex molecule total synthesis.
Chemistry World October 25, 2013 Rebecca Trager	Critical isotope threat to two-thirds of US nuclear reactors The congressional Government Accountability Office is warning that the US government has failed to adequately address the threat to the supply of a critical isotope required for more than half of the country's nuclear power plants.
Chemistry World October 25, 2013 James Urquhart	Water droplets warped into weird shapes US scientists have discovered that self-assembling nanoparticles can lock water droplets into different shapes. The team suggests the work could be useful for several applications including microfluidic devices, sensors and drug delivery.
Chemistry World October 24, 2013 Emma Stoye	Sulfur chemistry links coral to climate Researchers in Australia say that the destruction of coral reefs could pose a 'double jeopardy' for the environment, as a new study has found that corals produce a sulfur molecule linked to the global climate cycle.
Chemistry World October 24, 2013 Emily James	Parkinson's protein holds clue to oxidative stress Scientists from the UK have identified a possible cause for the oxidative stress found in patients with Parkinson's disease.
Chemistry World October 24, 2013 John Nicholson	Crucible of science John H. Exton's book gives an account of the careers of Carl and Gerty Cori, who were leaders of the emerging science of biochemistry in the US from the 1930s.
Chemistry World October 23, 2013 Emma Eley	Synthesis by sunlight Sustainable oxidation reactions can be performed with inexpensive and readily available photovoltaic cells
Chemistry World October 23, 2013 Manisha Lalloo	NMR thermometer takes reactor's temperature Scientists in the US have used NMR to create temperature maps of reactions taking place inside catalytic reactors. Their technique opens the door to an easy, non-invasive way to discover hot and cold 'spots' inside reactors.
Chemistry World October 23, 2013	Models of success The 2013 Nobel prize in chemistry was awarded to three computational pioneers who combined quantum and classical mechanics. Emma Stoye learns about the latest laureates
