Organic chemistry

a reaction whose chiral product catalyses its own formation with the same handedness, amplifying a small enantiomeric excess.

In organic chemistry, asymmetric autocatalysis refers to a reaction whose chiral product catalyses its own formation with the same handedness, amplifying a small enantiomeric excess. This meaning comes from Soai (1995) in Nature.[1]
