title: How Long Have Nonlinear Effects Been Known in the Field of Catalysis?
abstract: The similarities and differences between nonlinear effects in asymmetric synthesis (see diagram), predicted 60 years ago by W. Langenbeck, and the long-known amplification phenomenon in stoichiometric reactions with chiral starting materials are discussed.
