This useful reference describes the problems associated with large, commercial-scale syntheses of chiral molecules and the relatively small number of reactions that can be used to achieve these syntheses. Featuring over 1800 references, tables, and drawings, the Handbook of Chiral Chemicals is an ideal resource for industrial, process, pharmaceutical, organic, and medicinal chemists and biochemists; chemical engineers; chromatographers; bio-process technologists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
