Serine Sublimes with Spontaneous Chiral Amplification

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Sublimation of near-racemic samples of serine yields a sublimate which is highly enriched in the major enantiomer; this simple one-step process occurs under relatively mild conditions, and represents a possible mechanism for the chiral amplification step in homochirogenesis. © The Royal Society of Chemistry.
