29. A referee has suggested thai the difference in d.e. between the (+) and (-) chiral inductors might arise due to differences in chiral recognition of the chiral reactant by the two chiral inductors. Such a difference could alter the distribution pattern of singly and doubly (reactant and chiral inductor) occupied cages and thereby the observed d.e. At this stage we have no way of eliminating this possibility.
