Mechanochemistry of pterodactylane

Tatiana has worked with group alum Matias Horst and collaborators in Yan Xia’s lab to characterize the very cool mechanochemistry of the very cooly named pterodactylane.  Comparisons with (also cool) ladderanes reveals some significant differences.  See “Mechanochemistry of Pterodactylane” just published in J. Am. Chem. Soc.
