L. Benoit, Zhixiang Pan, Bingchen Yu, Robert J. Maier, Xingyue Ji, Binghe WangA chemical
strategy was developed wherein a single trigger sets
in motion a three-reaction cascade leading to the release of more

side product for easy monitoring. As a proof of concept, codelivery
of CO with the antibiotic metronidazole was demonstrated.
