Abstract

The capture and characterization of highly reactive and short-lived intermediates in organic catalytic reactions are challenging yet are very important for mechanism elucidation. Recently in <i>Matter</i>, Guo and co-workers employed single-molecule electrical spectroscopy (SMES) to detect the key intermediate and analyze the mechanism of <i>N</i>-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed benzoin reactions.
