Prebiotically plausible imidazolidine-4-thione organocatalysts are able to dynamically adapt to their environment by mutation of their own structure. Depending on the surrounding conditions, a distinct preference for certain species was identified, that correlates with the catalytic activity. This variation and selection mechanism allows for ongoing evolution of catalytic properties to create the complex

Early Earth under highly plausible prebiotic reaction conditions. These imidazolidine‐4‐thiones are readily formed from mixtures of aldehydes or ketones in presence of ammonia, cyanides and hydrogen sulfide in high selectivity and distinct preference for individual compounds of the resulting catalyst library. These organocatalysts enable the enantioselectiveα‐alkylation of aldehydes under prebiotic
