摘要：

有机小分子成为继酶和金属催化剂之后发展的一类新型催化剂，被称为第三类催化。有机小分子催化作为一种精确的分子构建新工具，对手性新药研发产生了巨大影响，在药物、农药、化工、材料等领域都得到了广泛的应用。2021年的诺贝尔化学奖授予了德国化学家本杰明·利斯特和美国化学家大卫·迈克米伦，以表彰他们在这一领域做出的开创性重要贡献。本文简述了手性现象和不对称催化，有机小分子催化的发展历程及其催化优势和未来前景。

关键词: 手性, 不对称催化, 有机小分子催化, 诺贝尔化学奖

Abstract:

Organic molecules have become one novel type of catalysts developed after enzymes and metal catalysts, which are named as organocalysis, the third type of catalysis. As a new tool toward the precise construction of molecules, organocatalysis has a huge impact on the development of chiral new drugs, which has been used in the fields of pharmacy, pesticides, chemicals, materials, and so on. The 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to German chemist Benjamin List and American chemist David W. C. MacMillan for their pioneering and important contributions to this field. This article will briefly describe chirality and asymmetric catalysis, especially, the history of organocatalysis development, its advantages and future prospects.

Key words: Chirality, Asymmetric catalysis, Organic small molecule catalysis, Nobel prize in chemistry
