Like an enzyme best describes the supramolecular catalyst reported by Rafael Gramage‐Doria et al. in their Research Article on page 18006. The remotely located Zn⋅⋅⋅N interactions within an iridium borylating catalyst are responsible for the unique selectivity and reactivity patterns observed for pyridine C−H bond functionalization. The pyridine approaches the substrate recognition pocket like a Perseid shooting star. Artwork: Romain Baloche.
