Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2026 Awarded to Henri B. Kagan and Kenso Soai for Asymmetric Synthesis Breakthrough
Henri B. Kagan and Kenso Soai were awarded the 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for discovering non-linear effects and autocatalysis in asymmetric organic synthesis, solving a century-old mystery about homochirality in chemistry. Their work enables controlled production of single-mirror-image molecules, critical for pharmaceutical development.
