Nobel Prize in Chemistry goes to Henri B. Kagan and Kenso Soai

The Nobel Prize in Chemistry on Wednesday was awarded to Henri B. Kagan and Kenso Soai "for the discovery of non-linear effects and autocatalysis in asymmetric organic synthesis." Last year, Susumu Kitagawa, Richard Robson and Omar Yaghi won the Nobel Prize in chemistry for the development of new molecular structures that can trap vast quantities of gas inside. Their discoveries can help tackle some of the world's most pressing problems, like climate change. This is a developing story. Please check back for the latest version.
