The combination of these two effects in the same reaction was unprecedented before 1995 when it was first described by Kenso SOAI at the Tokyo University of Science. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSince then, several new combinations of this effect have been found, most intriguingly the possibility of absolute asymmetric synthesis, which is the spontaneous formation of the excess of one of the enantiomers of the product, a dream of organic chemists for more than a century.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe book contains expert-contributed chapters that describe the most exciting recent developments in the field of the Soai reaction and in related topics, ranging from mechanistic studies and theoretical research, to very practical problems in chiral syntheses and products.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gyula Palyi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0128128240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780128128244\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Academic Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/23\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 408\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Gyula Palyi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48991618760959,"sku":"9780128128244","price":225.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/advances-in-asymmetric-autocatalysis-and-gyula-palyi-9780128128244","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
