Chiral Separations

Published 5 May 1996

Chronicles the theory and practical applications of chiral technology by focusing on the efficient preparation, isolation, and separation of chiral molecules in optically pure forms. Discusses asymmetric synthesis and chiral resolution in a variety of contexts, including enantioselective reactions and additions, enzyme-catalyzed reactions, chromatographic methods with various chiral stationary phases or chiral discriminators, and enantioselective membrane transport.
