I n contrast to the ever-growingasymmetric chemistry in the ground electronic state and the
rapidly developing photochemistry, the interdisciplinary asymmetric pho-tochemistry, which …

The photochemical reaction between an excited state of carbonyl compounds and an alkene
to give the oxetane deriving from a cycloaddition reaction (the Paternò–Büchi reaction) is …

Organic chemistry is not a pure science, despite claims to the contrary. However, neither is it
stagnating nor is it in decline. Instead, it is turning its attention to ever more challenging …

The second edition of this best-selling handbook is bigger, more comprehensive, and now
completely current. In addition to thorough updates to the discussions featured in the first …

A large number of successful methods for chirality transfer, using either stoichiometric or
catalytic chiral auxiliaries, are in use today. However, there is a lack of practical and dynamic …
