Abstract

A clue to the origin of chirality? A solution of proline with high enantiomeric excess (85–99 % ee) was obtained from solid proline of only 10 % ee through novel dissolution and crystallization processes (see scheme). This observation may be an explanation for the origin of chirality on Earth.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • An enantiomeric excess amplification process is needed to reach enantiopure organic compounds.

    “Thus, an ee amplification process is needed to reach enantiopure organic compounds (Scheme 1).11–20)”

    From Asymmetric autocatalysis. Chiral symmetry breaking and the origins of homochirality of organic molecules (2019) · cites this paper as [16]

    The paper’s Abstract reports amplification from low-ee proline to a sugar intermediate at 96% ee and proposes this as a possible route to homochiral molecules. It does not say amplification is necessary to obtain enantiopure organic compounds, and 96% ee is not enantiopure. (LLM, conf=0.85)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • The linkage between the induced small enantioenrichment and enantiopure compounds has remained a puzzle.

    “The linkage between the induced small enantioenrichment and the enantiopure compounds has thus remained a puzzle.11–20)”

  46. Note added in proof (June 12, 2006): Since this manuscript was accepted for publication, a paper by Blackmond and co-workers has appeared that describes a similar phenomenon (M. Kluss- mann, H. Iwamura, S. P. Mathew, D. H. Wells, Jr., U. Pandya, A. Armstrong, D. G. Blackmond, Nature 2006, 441, 621). The results in our present Communication explain the greater stability of crystals of dl-proline over those of the separate enantiomers and provide a rationale for the nonlinear effects observed in the ee of proline in solution and hence in the aldol reaction.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
