Remember that “crazy” vitamin B1 idea from 1958? Turns out, it was spot on! Scientists finally caught the super-reactive carbene that everyone thought couldn’t survive in water—right inside a vitamin B1-like system. Not only does this settle a decades-old debate, but it could also make drug manufacturing way greener by letting us use water instead of toxic solvents. Old-school chemistry just got a major upgrade! #Science #ScienceNews #VitaminB1
