As nouns, catalysis is a hyponym of chemical action; that is, catalysis is a word with a more specific, narrower meaning than chemical action:

chemical action: (chemistry) any process determined by the atomic and molecular composition and structure of the substances involved
catalysis: acceleration of a chemical reaction induced by the presence of material that is chemically unchanged at the end of the reaction
