An expert resource for chemists using stereochemical analysis methods

In Chiral Separations and Stereochemical Elucidation: Fundamentals, Methods, and Applications, a team of distinguished researchers delivers a robust and authoritative discussion of the theoretical fundamentals of chiral separation, the most commonly used chiral selectors, and stereochemical elucidation methods. The book offers expert discussions of a variety of chiral separation methods by gas chromatography (GC), supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC), capillary electrophoresis (CE), and liquid chromatography (LC).

The authors also describe several methods for stereochemical elucidation, including X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and chiroptical methods. The explored material is ideal for practicing chemists seeking a resource to help them guide method development and optimization or to explain quality control-complements during target compound production.
