The chemical industry depends on efficient, long-term methods of producing synthetically derived molecules. For this purpose, chemists often use catalysts, i.e. additives with which they can facilitate and control chemical reactions. But how are such reactions discovered and developed? Not infrequently, chance plays a decisive role. A team of chemists have developed a strategy for generating such 'random hits' in a systematic way, with the aim of discovering new, unexpected reactions.
