This is a magnificent Nobel Prize that stands out due to the brilliance of the laureates. It truly answers one of the great questions in science: why is nature chiral? The answer was there, and only they saw it. The reaction itself can generate homochirality through non-linear and autocatalytic effects—contributions made by Kagan and Soai, respectively.
