Dynamic Stereochemistry of Chiral Compounds: Principles and Applications

In this book the reader is presented with a comprehensive overview of fundamental concepts of asymmetric synthesis along with in-depth discussion of strategies for the synthesis and stereoselective interconversion of compounds exhibiting central axial and planar chirality, numerous racemization and diastereomerization reactions.

Details of analytical methods are provided and discussed as well as topics relating to the design of fascinating topologically chiral assemblies and molecular technomimetic devices in the context of dynamic stereochemistry. Strategies and recent developments that address important synthetic challenges are presented and highlighted with hundreds of examples, applications and detailed mechanisms.
