Chemistry Breakthrough Might Change Everything from Medicine to Farming

I got the impression that the modelling was just for the understanding of how it works.

Here’s the preprint - https://chemrxiv.org/engage/chemrxiv/article-details/652414e...

Your impression is accurate, they have a bunch of experimental synthesis results and then some modeling to try to understand the reaction mechanism. They report 50-80% yield depending on the reaction conditions - I’m not a chemist but that seems pretty good to me
