Many important pharmaceutical drugs, chemicals for the organic synthesis of chiral compounds, electronic elements such as liquid crystals, and polymeric materials are chiral (enantiomeric). The development of new practical methods for the preparation of enantiomerically pure substances is thus vital. Enantiomer Separation is written by several experts working in modern enantiomer separation chemistry who understand the needs of the many scientific and engineering chemists who need a cost-efficient supply of optically active materials of high quality. This book contains the following modern practical methods of enantiomer separation: Practical methods of enantiomer separation are important both in the research laboratory and in industry, especially in the pharmaceutical, fine chemical and electronic industries. Chemists and engineers, as well as students who are working in the field of chiral compounds in universities, institute and industry, will find this book an invaluable resource.
