Kagan and Kenso Soai have been awarded the 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry in Stockholm for their groundbreaking discoveries regarding non-linear effects and autocatalysis in asymmetric organic synthesis. The Nobel committee honored the duo for developing new ways of manipulating chemical reactions to solve a long-standing scientific mystery involving mirror-image molecules and molecular homochirality. Their foundational research explains how chemical processes can generate an overwhelming excess of a single mirror-image molecular form, advancing pharmaceutical development and deepening
