Molecular Optical Activity and the Chiral Discriminations

Klappentext This book! first published in 1982! presents a comprehensive introduction to studies of the singular chemical and physical properties of chiral molecules! both organic and inorganic. Zusammenfassung This book! first published in 1982! presents a comprehensive introduction to studies of the singular chemical and physical properties of chiral molecules! both organic and inorganic. The topics discussed include the physical basis of the optical activity and the selective interactions of chiral molecules! and the general principles underlying enantiomer separation and asymmetric synthesis.
