Abstract

The evolution of deep and shallow flowers is a response to a “race” with pollinating organisms that determines the length and form of the bill of hummingbirds. Likewise, the selection of the Lewis basic component for a frustrated Lewis pair is dictated by the steric congestion around the boron center of the Lewis acid. In their Communication on page 6559 ff., T. Soós and co-workers show that this “selection phenomenon” can be exploited as a design concept for metal-free hydrogenation catalysts.
