Want to remove the biasness of long chain aliphatic acid?

Go through our recently published article in @Nature

First γ C-H activation of unbiased fatty acid.

[Debabrata Maiti @maiti_iitb]

Happy to share our latest work, now published in Nature!

Ligand-enabled remote C–H activation converts abundant saturated fatty acids into desaturated lactones.
