Abstract
(Figure Presented) Promoting the atomic dialogue! At neutral pH and ambient temperature, a cyclodextrin-derived ketone causes hydrogen peroxide and benzyl alcohols to meet in its active site and react up to 60 000 times faster than they do outside the cyclodextrin. © 2006 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
