The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences on Wednesday awarded the 2026 Nobel Prize in Chemistry to Henri B Kagan and Kenso Soai 'for the discovery of non-linear effects and autocatalysis in asymmetric organic synthesis.' In the heart of their work, there is a strange property called chirality, or chemical "handedness." Interestingly, the prize money of this year is 12 million Swedish kronor (about $1.2 million), whether for an individual, a small group of laureates, or an organisation.
