They use density functional theory (DFT) calculations to model initial experimental data, which provide crucial insights into the relevance of non-covalent interactions in enantioselection. These findings guide the design of novel ligands that enhance enantiomeric excess in the asymmetric amidation of diverse C–H bonds.}, publisher = {Cell Press}, title = {Weak interactions crucial for better enantioselections}, doi = {10.1016/j.checat.2025.101496}, author = {Díaz Requejo, María Mar and Pérez Romero, Pedro José}, }
