Wolfium Bond Catalysis: Electronic Reprogramming and Transition State Stabilization in Aza-Diels–Alder Reactions
O as an effective modulator of the reaction pathway in both nonpolar and polar media. Compared to conventional hydrogen and halogen bonds, wolfium bonds exhibit a more pronounced ability to regulate the reaction mechanism, offering a new perspective on the role of noncovalent interactions in pericyclic reactions.
