., that it is readily available, not sensitive to water or air, inexpensive, easy to handle, sustainable, and non-toxic); the role of nitrogen fixation in enabling population growth; industrial Nitrogen fixation; the manifold impacts of asymmetric organocatalysis on society and developing organic catalysts that work for many reactions; the Diels-Alder reaction as the first application of asymmetric organocatalysis; the work of Jöns Jacob Berzelius and his nomenclature (catalysis, protein, polymer, isomer, organic vs inorganics); the different kinds of catalysis, including organocatalysis, biocatalysis, metal catalysis, and photoredox catalysis (which has since been established as a separate field and enables the harnessing of sustainable solar energy to power chemical reactions); applications of asymmetric organocatalysis, including the creation of fragrances, including Lily of the Valley, the creation of recyclable plastic (by depolymerising plastic, e.g. breaking down polymers into monomers, and then remaking polymers), and medicinal...
