US chemists debunk 100-year-old Bredt’s Rule to change organic chemistry forever
UCLA scientists just published a paper in the journal Science that disproves Bredt's rule, which has “constrained chemists for a century.”
UCLA scientists just published a paper in the journal Science that disproves Bredt’s rule, which has “constrained chemists for a century.” In the lab, UCLA chemists formed ABOs or anti-Bredt olefins by treating silyl (pseudo) halides with a fluoride source that brought about an elimination reaction. But this research comes from “a big push in the pharmaceutical industry to develop chemical reactions that give three-dimensional structures like ours because they can be used to discover new medicines.”
