Scientists have made a groundbreaking discovery in the field of chemistry, breaking a 100-year-old rule by synthesizing extremely unstable molecules called anti-Bredt olefins. This achievement has the potential to lead to new types of medicines that can interact better with proteins in the body. The researchers plan to continue exploring this new class of compounds and their reactivity.
