尽管皮克泰-斯宾格勒反应在一个多世纪前就被发现了,但我们仍然无法对皮克泰-斯宾格勒反应有一个统一的机理理解。在本期《Chem》中,Zheng 等人。通过将密度泛函理论与分子动力学相结合的创新分析,最终回答这个长期存在且偶尔有争议的机械难题还有很长的路要走。
Despite being discovered over a century ago, a unified mechanistic understanding of the Pictet-Spengler reaction continues to elude us. In this issue ofChem, Zheng et al. go a long way toward finally answering this long-standing and occasionally controversial mechanistic puzzle by combining density functional theory with molecular dynamics in an innovative analysis.
