Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>Intriguing imidazolidinones!</bold> Inspired by noncovalent interactions in proteins, a series of electronically distinct MacMillan catalysts were designed. The effect of electronic modulation on ground state conformation, reactivity, and performance was studied in a catalytic setting with intriguing outcomes.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg276x4bf6" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
