I just find out that Friedel in Friedel-Crafts reaction is father of Friedel in Friedel's law. And mineral Friedelite is named after first Friedel.

Friedelite
May be regarded as a disordered equivalent of mcgillite (Ozawa et al., 1983). Chemically very similar to pyrosmalite-(Mn) (trigonal). The possible ...

maybe we should put in some refresher organic chemistry in there as well, maybe go over the Friedel-Crafts, maybe some molecular orbital theory, nomenclature, ya know, the basics

🔬 We used NMR to rationalize the role of two mutations that increase the catalytic activity towards the Friedel-Crafts Alkylation of indoles in an artificial metalloenzyme. The catalyst is based on a copper-phenanthroline complex bound within the hydrophobic pocket of the versatile LmrR protein.
