Allolysis

Zymolysis

Organocatalysis

Fibrinolysis

Answer: Organocatalysis

The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2021 was awarded for the development of a tool for molecule building known as  Organocatalysis. 

The development was made by Benjamin List and David MacMillan. 

 Organocatalyst” is made up of of carbon, hydrogen, sulfur and other nonmetal elements found in organic compounds.

  In organic chemistry, organocatalysis is a form of catalysis during which the rate of a chemical reaction is increased by an organic catalyst.  

  Organocatalysis, or the use of small organic molecules to catalyse organic transformations, is a relatively new and popular field within the domain of chiral molecule (or enantioselective) synthesis.  

Examples of organic catalysts compunds are biomolecules, especially proline, phenylalanine, and certain oligopeptides, and synthetic catalysts derived from biomolecules.
