Want to refresh your memory on named chemical reactions before an exam or a group meeting? Get all the details with ReactionFlash(R) as a great way to learn named reactions, understand their mechanisms and view examples published in peer-reviewed literature. Designed and developed in consultation with Professor Dr. Erick M. Carreira of ETH Zürich, the app covers 1'266 named chemical reactions, by far the largest collection of Named Reactions. Professor Carreira has helped ensure that we have all the fundamental reactions that should be part of every chemist’s toolkit: from the best-known ones to the ones only Nobel Prize winners remember! The app is designed like a set of flash cards so it can be used as a learning tool as well as a reference. Each ‘card’ shows the reaction, its mechanism and examples from peer-reviewed, published literature. It also has a quiz mode that lets you test your knowledge. Linking into Reaxys enables you to find the most recent examples of each reaction, many with experimental details. Reaxys delivers experimental facts from the literature, enabling researchers to find the best synthetic routes and conditions.

Molvelle AR brings you into the molecular world of Sugammadex, a modified cyclodextrin used to reverse anesthesia effects. This augmented reality app allows you to visualize how Sugammadex binds with Rocuronium—a muscle relaxant crucial in anesthetic procedures—as well as with Cholesterol and Vitamin D3. Using molecular dynamics simulations (originally conducted in water, with solvent removed for clarity), the app provides an immersive experience. Rotate the interactive volvelle to switch between ligands and observe each binding interaction in detail, making this app a valuable tool for education and research. Developed within the framework of the European Bicyclos project (EC-funded Staff Exchange project n° 101130235) in collaboration with the University of Santiago de Compostela, MD.USE Innovations SL, Carbohyde, and IES Rosalía de Castro, Santiago de Compostela. Features: Interactive volvelle to select and explore Sugammadex binding with Rocuronium, Cholesterol, or Vitamin D3. 3D molecular dynamics simulations illustrating binding orientations. Educational content on Sugammadex’s role in anesthetic reversal and its research applications. Augmented reality for an engaging educational and research experience in molecular science. Step into molecular interactions with Volvelle AR—where education and research converge in augmented reality.
