Terpene cyclization catalysis with a functional cavitand: driving selectivity through precise molecular recognition
A three-walled self-folding cavitand receptor derived from resorcin[4]arene featuring phenol groups near the confined space catalyzes the cyclization reaction of nerol, using HCl as co-catalyst. In co...
