Comprehensive Asymmetric Catalysis

This text with CD-ROM covers catalytic methods for the preparation chiral compounds, required for pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals, and flavours and fragrances. Providing an overview of the asymmetric catalysis field. They contain coverage on the basic principles, mechanisms and basis for stereoinduction, scope and limitations, and strategies and perspectives for future development. The CD-ROM provides substructure and reaction-centre search possibilities to allow access to the information.
