As the name implies all ingredients are mixed together simultaneously "in one pot".
- faster process
- less control
- ... (wiki-TODO: expand here)
Artificial
A good part of artificial selfassembly is still done as one-pot reactions.
Notable exception are demonstrations og hierarchical assembly with structural DNA nanotechnology.
In nature
Nanobiology averts full-on one-pot self-assembly by compartmentalizations
- disjunct surfaces (lipid walls)
- disjunct volumes (verticles enclose by lipid walls)
- means of transport inbetween

The complement to one-pot self-assembly is iterative self-assembly
