Catalytic Methods in Asymmetric Synthesis: Advanced Materials, Techniques, and Applications

The book that connects catalytic asymmetric synthesis technologies to their applied methods
Catalytic asymmetric synthesis—the preparation of enantiomerically pure or enantioenriched chemicals by using a chiral catalyst—is at the heart of synthetic organic and medicinal chemistry, and Catalytic Methods in Asymmetric Synthesis addresses advances in the field, as well as their applications. The book covers hot topics in organic chemistry and also examines applications for synthesizing biologically active molecules.
Part I looks at recent developments in new materials and technologies, such as supports and supported catalysts, self–supported catalysts, chiral ionic liquids, supercritical fluids, flow reactors, and microwaves related to asymmetric catalysis. Part II covers advances and milestones in organocatalytic, enzymatic, and metal–based mediated asymmetric synthesis, including applications for the synthesis of biologically active molecules.
Written by leading international experts, this edited volume contains over 550 schemes and figures to illuminate the concepts detailed in the text.
