Rice University researchers, from left, László Kürti, Surached Siriwongsup and Padmanabha Kattamuri stand by the custom reactor they use to produce a nitrogen polarity-reversal agent in bulk. The aminating agents derived from it are meant to simplify the process by which chemists design drugs and other compounds.
