Abstract: It is shown that complex intramolecular and intermolecular transformations of natural pinene terpenoids can proceed in the presence of natural montmorillonite clays with the preservation of optical activity. These facts support our assumption that natural clays could act as prebiotic catalysts and favor preservation of chirality in complex compounds formed from simple optically active molecules at early stages of life.
