摘要
As part of an ongoing discussion comparing models for the evolution of homochirality, we address the preceding Correspondence by Ribo and co-workers. We demonstrate that our previous Concept article did not include errors concerning solubility behavior and we address the challenge of representing equilibrium phase behavior for systems of racemizing enantiomers. In addition we re-emphasize the point that the homochiral state is not inherently more stable than the heterochiral state and we show that concerning this point the Ribo treatise misinterprets the Frank model for the evolution of homochirality.
