摘要
(Figure Presented) Going with the flow: Nature has perfected the use of hydrophobic interactions in biochemical processes. Some recent work on synthesis has shown that reactions in water may be predisposed to favor tran sition states that optimize hydrophobic interactions (see picture). Thus, it should in principle be possible to use hydrophobic interactions as a nonbonding element of control for synthetic reactions in water. © 2006 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
