Abstract

Abstract : In vivo gold complex catalysis in living mice is described by K. Tanaka and co‐workers in their Communication on page 3579 ff. When attached to a glycocluster, gold catalysts can be delivered to a target organ in a higher organism where they perform a chemical transformation. This approach could enable the use of organometallic catalysts in therapy or diagnostics as they could catalyze the uncaging of therapeutic enzymes or the generation of active drugs at a target organ.
