Usage
Kenneth Wiberg and Frederick Walker used bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane to make [1.1.1]propellane.[1]
The bicyclo[1.1.1]pentane structure has been used as an unusual bioisostere for a phenyl ring.[2]
gollark: Some very alty thing?
gollark: I think I need about a gazillion more reds.
gollark: GWs are probably sliiiiiightly less common.
gollark: Probably.
gollark: There would be less strain if it only checked for the dragons once the first time you use it and then added the others when you got them.
