Abstract

N,N-Diisopropylbenzoylformamide, benzil, and 4,4′-dimethylchalcone are achiral molecules that crystallize in chiral space groups. It is possible with suitable reagents in water to convert these molecules in the crystals directly into chiral molecules. In the case of the chalcone asymmetric induction in its reaction is observed.
