abstract

  • (Figure Presented) An Inside job: The conformational interconversion of cyclohexane occurs at a higher rate in the interior of gated molecular baskets (see picture) than in bulk free solvent or a vacuum. The acceleration results from more favorable noncovalent bonding, and hence stabilization of the transition state, of the encapsulated compound. © 2010 Wlley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
