Enforced peeling for easier ferrocene dissociation
Congrats to Yudi and co-workers, whose paper “Distal conformational locks on ferrocene mechanophores guide reaction pathways for increased mechanochemical reactivity” has just been published at Nature Chem! What a fun mechanistic story with consequences for bulk material behavior — and all the more enjoyable for the chance to collaborate with Chuanbing Tang and his great team at USC!
