Spontaneous deracemizations is a challenging, multidisciplinary subject in current chirality
research. In the absence of any chiral inductors, an achiral substance or a racemic …

Nature successfully manages under extremely adverse conditions to accomplish intricate
functions responsible for the regulation and control of the vast majority of biological …

The concept of chirality has been developed in various industrial and scientific fields such as
chemistry, biology, physics, life and environmental sciences. As known, chiral materials …

From the days of Biot1 and Pasteur, 2 when it was recognized that biopolymers are
composed from residues of a single handedness, scientists were puzzled as to the ancestry …

Understanding how life arose is a fundamental problem of biology. Much progress has been
made by adopting a synthetic and mechanistic perspective on originating life. We present a …

The inexorable evolution of solid-phase single chirality is demonstrated for the first time for a
proteinogenic amino acid. Enantioenrichment is observed both under attrition-enhanced …

Anti‐aldol products with up to> 99% enantiomeric excess (ee) have been obtained by
proline catalysis in excellent yields under experimentally simple solvent‐free conditions …

A century ago Wilhelm Ostwald received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry. Although Ostwald
was never significantly involved with the phenomenon of chirality, one of his discoveries …

A deracemization technique using periodic temperature fluctuations on a conglomerate
forming system undergoing a swift racemization in solution is demonstrated. The method …

The transformation of the enantiomorphic but intrinsically achiral salt NaClO3 into single
chirality was recently demonstrated by Viedma by simply grinding the crystals in a saturated …
