Description

Book Synopsis
Introduces a new, simplified classification for stereoselective reactions based on changes in the number of chiral centres taking place, emphasizing the three-dimensional representations of transition states in which stereoselectivity is determined.

Table of Contents
Partial table of contents:

Type 0 Reactions: Reactions in Which No New Chiral Centres Are Created.

Type I Reactions: Those Proceeding with Either Inversion or with Retention of Configuration at a Single Chiral Centre.

Simple Chirality Transfer Reactions: Those in Which a Single Chiral Centre Is Transferred with Concomitant Migration of One or More Double Bonds.

Type II Reactions: Simple Diastereoselectivity in 1,2-Additions to Alkenes, Diels-Alder and 1,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions and the ene Reaction.

Type II Reactions: Occasional Diastereoselectivity.

Type III Reactions: Those Involving Asymmetric Induction.

Type III Reactions of Diastereotopic and Enantiotopic Atoms and Groups;
Enzyme Catalysed Reactions.
