Water-stable catalyst brings carbon-bond chemistry closer to living cells
Original: Water-stable catalyst could bring carbon-bond chemistry closer to use in living cells
Researchers have developed a catalyst stable in water that can form carbon-carbon bonds, a key reaction in organic chemistry, under conditions compatible with living cells. The advance could open the door to using powerful catalytic chemistry inside biological systems. Interest centers on what this means for drug development and chemical biology.
Why now: New research suggests complex catalytic chemistry could soon work inside living cells, a long-standing goal in chemical biology
