A theoretical analysis of a classic example of supramolecular catalysis

Abstract

Computational chemistry is used to study a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between an azide and an alkyne inside the macrocycle cucurbit[6]uril, in order to elucidate the catalytic function of a highly efficient supramolecular catalyst.
