Mechanistic study of asymmetric amplification in the Soai autocatalytic reaction
Soai’s discovery of chiral amplification in the autocatalytic alkylation of pyrimidine-5-carbaldehyde with diisopropylzinc is one of the most noteworthy findings of the last decade of the 20th century. This is the first experimental confirmation of an early theoretical rationalisation of autocatalys...
