Terpene cyclization catalysis with a functional cavitand: driving selectivity through precise molecular recognition
A cavitand receptor catalyses the cyclization reaction of nerol with remarkable and unprecedented selectivity towards limonene. The salient features of this catalytic system are rationalized on the basis of precise molecular recognition phenomena.
