UnverifiedIn the Hajjai reaction, Hajjai started from only 2% enantiomeric excess and amplified it to 87% through autocatalysis, becoming almost entirely a single chirality; even with no chiral substance added at all, the reaction still spontaneously leans to one side.74% similarUnverifiedThe Soai reaction can use an extremely low concentration of a chiral product as a template to replicate and amplify its own chiral information, ultimately generating products with a near-100% enantiomeric excess.61% similarUnverifiedIn the Soai reaction, even when the initial ee value is close to 0%, the ee value of the product can approach 100% after multiple rounds of autocatalytic cycling.60% similarUnverifiedStarting from a catalyst with an enantiomeric excess of only 0.00005%, Soai demonstrated that after repeating the reaction three times, the enantiomeric excess of the product can be raised to above 99.5%.60% similarUnverifiedIn the Soai reaction, an extremely tiny chiral bias at the initial stage of the reaction (for example, introduced by circularly polarized light or trace impurities) is amplified exponentially in subsequent cycles, and the ee value of the final product can exceed 99%.59% similar
