It is not a coincidence that both chirality and noncovalent interactions are ubiquitous in
nature and synthetic molecular systems. Noncovalent interactivity between chiral molecules …

The factors responsible for the kinetic resolution of alcohols by chiral pyridine derivatives
have been elucidated by measurements of relative rates for a set of substrates with …

The origin of enantioselectivity in asymmetric catalysis is often built around the differential
steric interaction in the enantiocontrolling transition states (TSs). A closer perusal of …

The asymmetric ring-opening reaction of 3, 3-substituted oxetanes catalyzed by chiral
phosphoric acid (CPA) derived from a newly developed SPHENOL (2, 2′, 3, 3′-tetrahydro …

Zirconocene catalysts are capable of inducing ethylene polymerization to generate a variety
of polyethylene polymers with the incorporation of a co-monomer into the growing …

Molecular understanding of chemical reactivity has become progressively better with the
advent of powerful computational methods. In the domain of computational catalysis, one …

First-principles calculations are commonly used to search for possible transition states in
reaction kinetics studies, which are such a challenge to observe experimentally. However …

Die Ursachen für die kinetische Racematspaltung von Alkoholen durch chirale
Pyridinderivate wurden untersucht. Dafür wurden relative Reaktionsgeschwindigkeiten für …

We propose a new model for prochirality that satisfies all known examples: the prochiral
plane. This plane contains the prochiral carbon and defines two separate faces for chemical …
