Pursuit of Noncovalent Interactions for Strategic Site-Selective Catalysis

Acc Chem Res. 2017 Mar 21;50(3):609-615. doi: 10.1021/acs.accounts.6b00613.

Abstract

Selective reactions on structures of high complexity can move beyond the mind's eye and proof-of-principle. Enhanced understanding of noncovalent interactions and their interdependence, revealed through analysis of multiple parameters, should accelerate the discovery of efficient reactions in highly complex molecular environments.
