Asymmetric catalysis represents still one of the major challenges in modern organic chemistry. Besides the well-established asymmetric metal-complex-catalysed syntheses and biocatalysis, the use of "pure" organic catalysts turned out to be an additional efficient tool for the synthesis of chiral building blocks. In this handbook, the experienced authors from academia and industry provide the first overview of the important use of such metal-free organic catalysts in organic chemistry. With its comprehensive description of numerous reaction types, e.g., nucleophilic substitution and addition re

This book covers a wide range of reactions which are important in the asymmetric synthesis of organic compounds. Each chapter is self-contained, covers a single reaction type, and concludes with references to the original literature for the examples. Topics include principles of asymmetric additions to carbonyls, enolate alkylation, aldol reactions, additions to C-C double bonds, reduction and oxidation, rearrangements, and hydrolysis/ esterification reactions. The numerous examples and references to the literature will be of use to organic chemists interested in asymmetric synthesis, while th

Asymmetric synthesis is one of the most important areas of research and development in synthetic organic chemistry, and has wide-ranging industrial applications. This introduction to the subject covers chirality, nomenclature and analytical methods of resolution. The main body of the text describes the principal methods available to the organic chemist wishing to synthesize chiral compounds. Case studies are included, and reference sections allow access to the relevant review and research literature. This book is written for organic chemists at postgraduate and advanced undergraduate level.
