Handbook of Reagents for Organic Synthesis: Chiral Reagents for Asymmetric Synthesis
Derived from the renowned, Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis (EROS), the related editors have created a new handbook which focuses on chiral reagents used in asymmetric synthesis and is designed for the chemist at the bench. This new handbook follows the same format as the Encyclopedia, including an introduction and an alphabetical arrangement of the reagents.\ As chiral reagents are the key for the successful asymmetric synthesis, choosing the right reagents is essential, in...

Drawing on the Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis (EROS), published in 1995, and the electronic version of the same work, e-EROS, Paquette (chemistry, The Ohio State University) compiles descriptions of optically active reagents and catalysts used in asymmetric synthesis in this reference for practicing organic chemists. The selection of reagents and catalysts reflects the increase in demand for enantiomerically pure reagents and products that has taken place over the past 25 years. The reference will be useful for synthetic organic chemists working in natural product synthesis and for medicinal chemists working on the development of enantiomerically pure drugs.
