Masson Group Shows Pumpkin-shaped Molecules Catalyze Classic Reaction

Eric Masson studies pumpkin-shaped Cucurbituril molecules

The groups of Dr. Eric Masson and Dr. Oren Scherman, a collaborator from the University of Cambridge, UK, recently showed that Cucurbiturils, a family of molecules that have the shape of a hollow pumpkin, could be used as catalysts for a well-known reaction in organic chemistry. By encapsulating reagents, Cucurbiturils force the reacting partners […]
