Description

The control of molecular chirality is of central concern in contemporary chemistry. This reference for scientists and advanced students examines a broad range of methodologies and tools for controlling chiral reactions, equilibria, and recognition. F or example, one of the recent innovations described produces absolute asymmetric synthesis using circularly polarized light and coherent laser control of chiral molecules. The latest breakthroughs in supramolecular photochirogenesis in various confined media are also discussed. Sixteen chapters in all. Inoue teaches chemistry at Osaka U., Japan, and Ramamurthy teaches chemistry at Tulane University.
