Bond selectivity in electron-induced reaction due to directed recoil on an anisotropic substrate

The ability to selectively break a chemical bond in a molecule is indispensable to chemical synthesis. Here, the authors show that a hundred-fold bond selectivity can be obtained in electron-induced surface reaction due simply to different bond alignments at the surface.
