According to Bredt's rule, double bonds cannot exist at certain positions on organic molecules if the molecule's geometry deviates too far from what we learn in textbooks. This rule has constrained ...

The work is “a landmark contribution”, says Craig Williams, a chemist at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia.
