Part of the "Methods of Organic Chemistry" series, this book is one of the supplemental volumes to the 4th edition. This title covers a five-volume set that evaluates the entire literature on stereoselective synthesis, provides essential background material on techniques and terminology, and covers methods for stereoselective bond formation. This Part a covers general aspects of stereoselective synthesis: nomenclature and vocabulary of organic stereochemistry, basic principles of EPC synthesis, determination on enantiomeric purity, determination of absolute and relative configuration; synthesis of axially chiral compounds - allenes and biaryls; synthesis of chiral compounds by bond disconnection; and synthesis of chiral compounds by bond formation - formation of C-C-bonds. The book should be of interest to organic, inorganic, pharmaceutical and physical chemists in research and practice, as well as biochemists.
