Obtaining information after a rate determining step (RDS) of a chemical reaction is difficult but essential for its understanding. Now, a Ru(IV) side-on peroxo complex has been isolated after the RDS − the O-O bond formation- in the water oxidation reaction allowing to track the reaction.

We have recently used bioorthogonal reactions to convert microbial rhodopsins into hybrid voltage indicators.
