Seven-eleven is a reaction where a fishhook and elevener (or larger variants) swap places when a block or block-like front touches it. If attached to an oscillator that produces this front, they can swap repeatedly. Matthias Merzenich originally discovered the reaction on December 16, 2015 in 35P12.1; the reaction has since been used in other oscillators such as 76P86 and a specific p60 lumps of muck hassler.

The name comes from the two components having seven cells and eleven cells and 7-Eleven being a convenience store chain based in the united states.

x = 11, y = 11, rule = B3/S23 9b2o$10bo$7b3o$7bo$5bobo$5b2o2$2b2o3b2o$2bo4bobo$obo$2o! #C [[ THUMBSIZE 2 THEME 6 GRID GRIDMAJOR 0 SUPPRESS THUMBLAUNCH ]] #C [[ HEIGHT 500 WIDTH 600 THUMBSIZE 2 ZOOM 16 GPS 4 ]]
Some "block fronts" can flip the seven-eleven twice, acting as a one-time catalyst.
