Deals with basic principles of asymmetric catalysis focusing on its synthetic significance. Covers homogeneous asymmetric hydrogenation, asymmetric catalysis vi

This work describes the essential aspects of enantioselective catalysis, with chapters organised by concept rather than by reaction type. Each concept is suppor

Asymmetric synthesis has become a major aspect of modern organic chemistry. The stereochemical properties of an organic compound are often essential to its bioa

Accompanying CD-ROM contains the full-text search and a state-of-the-art graphic substructure search routine.

Organocatalysis is considered today one of the three pillars in asymmetric catalysis, along with biocatalysis and organometallic catalysis. The current book giv
