Abstract

Strained hydrocarbons have recently regained interest as potential drug candidates. However, the study of their heteroatom analogs has remained limited, despite differing by only a single atom.

Sci., 2023, 14, 2821-2825, https://doi.org/10.1039/D3SC00001J) is discussed within the context of nitrogen scanning of strained hydrocarbons.
