Just a quick search of “Blackmond nobelprize” suggests that you are not alone.. @BuresGroup @ChemBark @kpurkayastha @professor_dave The knowledge behind the phenomena would not be even close to where it is today without her multiple breakthroughs!
This is a fascinating Nobel Prize, and congratulations to the winners. I would be remiss, however, not to acknowledge Donna Blackmond’s mechanistic brilliance and her substantial contributions to our understanding of this chemistry.

Congratulations to both. I was looking for third person as well named Donna Blackmond, who did the similar work. Her work explores the mechanistic details of asymmetric organic catalysis.

Nice. Would’ve loved to see Donna Blackmond share in this prize for her wonderful contributions to elucidating the mechanisms of these sorts of reactions.

Interesting Kagan/Soai Nobel Prize. Definitely a missed opportunity for Donna Blackmond to be recognised for her outstanding work on understanding the phys/org chemistry and mathematical detail of these processes. What could it possibly be about HER that meant SHE got overlooked?

Kenso Soai – awarded the 2026 #NobelPrize in Chemistry – designed the first chemical reaction in which only one of the potential mirror images was formed. Other than life itself, no one had ever achieved this feat. The Soai reaction is one of the most spectacular chemical experiments ever conducted.

Congrats Dr. Brandon Moy!! Very well deserved, especially after finishing half a PhD with a supervisor more than 1,300 km away.
