Topics in Stereochemistry (Discontinued) – serie

Topics in Stereochemistry, Materials-Chirality provides comprehensive information on the stereochemistry of materials. Coverage includes the chirality of materials and the important role stereochemistry plays in the physical properties of polymers, liquid crystals, and other materials.

Since it was first published in 1967, the highly regarded Topics in Stereochemistry series has consistently reflected the state of the art in the field and provided readers with a coherent framework for the conceptual, theoretical, and practical aspects of modern stereochemistry. With the new series editor, Scott E. Denmark, at the helm, Volume 22 continues to offer important insights into the evolution of stereochemistry and its future direction. Written by internationally recognized leaders in their respective fields, this volume introduces readers to some of the most intensely studied topics in research laboratories today. Along with the fundamental principles of chirality, the authors describe exciting new applications of stereochemistry in synthetic organic, physical organic, and bioorganic chemistry. They cover cutting-edge research in areas such as asymmetric catalysis, reactions with catalytic antibodies, and stereoelectronic control of organic reactions. In addition, a feature chapter provides a critical analysis of the concepts of molecular chirality. Timely and authoritative, Topics in Stereochemistry, Volume 22, features over 120 illustrations and a cumulative index covering Volumes 1 through 22. It is an essential resource for organic chemists involved in synthesis as well as those in the physical and bioorganic areas of organic chemistry. Volume 22 relaunches this highly respected series, providing a timely, valuable reference to the theory and practice of stereochemistry. Cutting-edge topics include:* Foundations of molecular and topological chirality.* Stereoselective reactions with catalytic antibodies.* Stereoelectronic effects of the group 4 metal substituents in organic chemistry.* Asymmetric catalysis with the new class of chiral lanthanoid complexes.* Basic principles of the exciting new area of asymmetric amplification.

Topics in Stereochemistry, previously edited by "the father of stereochemistry" Ernest L. Eliel, is a longstanding, successful series covering the most important advances in the field. The much-anticipated Volume 25 includes chapters on the following topics:* Stereochemistry of Molecules in Inclusion Crystals* Torsional Motion of Stilbene-type Molecules in Crystals* Supramolecular Networks of Porphyrins* Homo- and Heterochirality in Crystals* Supramolecular Synthesis of 1D Chains and 2D Layers in Hydrogen Bond Networks of Ureas and 2-D Pyrimidinones* Chiral Auxiliaries Powerful for Both Enantioresolution and Determination of Absolutely Stereochemistry by X-Ray Crystallograph* Engineering Stereospecific Reactoins in Crystals: Synthesis of Compounds with Adjacent Stereogenic Quaternary Centers by Photodecarbonylation of Crystalline Ketones* The CH/ Hydrogen Bond: An Important Molecular Force in Controlling the Crystal Conformation of Organic Compounds and Three-Dimensional Structure of Biopolymers* Stereoselective Thermal Solid-State Reactions* Crystal Structures and Functionalities of Platinum (II) Complexes Controlled by Various Intermolecular Interactions

This seminal series, first edited by Ernest Eliel, responsible for some of the major advances in stereochemistry and the winner of the ACS Priestley Medal in 1996, provides coverage of the major developments of the field of stereochemistry. The scope of this series is broadly defined to encompass all fields of chemical and biological sciences that are founded on molecular and supramolecular interactions. Insofar as chemical, physical, and biological properties are determined by molecular shape and structure, the importance of stereochemistry is fundamental to and consequential for all natural sciences. Topics in Stereochemistry serves as a multidisciplinary series that enriches all of chemistry. Aimed at advanced students, university professors and teachers as well as researchers in pharmaceutical, agricultural, biotechnological, polymer, materials, and fine chemical industries, Topics in Stereochemistry publishes definitive and scholarly reviews in stereochemistry and has long been recognized as the gold standard reference work in this field.Covering the effect of chirality on all aspects of molecular interaction from the fundamental physical chemical properties of molecules and their molecular physics to the application of chirality in new areas such as its applications in materials science, Topics in Stereochemistry explores a wide variety of properties, both physical and chemical of isomers with a view to their applications in a number of disciplines from biochemistry to materials science.
