Noncovalent interaction with a spirobipyridine ligand enables efficient iridium-catalyzed C–H activation

Abstract Exploitation of noncovalent interactions for recognition of an organic substrate has received much attention for the design of metal catalysts in organic synthesis. The CH–π interaction is especially of interest for molecular recognition because both the C–H bonds and the π electrons are fu...
