A video on the winners of the 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry
The Nobel Prize for chemistry was awarded to German scientist Benjamin List of the Max Planck Institute and Scotland-born scientist David WC MacMillan of Princeton University.
They were cited for their work in developing a new way for building molecules known as “asymmetric organocatalysis.” The winners were announced Wednesday by Goran Hansson, secretary-general of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
The Nobel panel said Mr List and Mr MacMillan in 2000 independently developed a new way of catalysis.
