Sinopsis

An understanding of chirality is central to the study and application of the molecular sciences. Chirality in Natural and Applied Science provides a highly practical overview of the chemical significance of chirality and is particularly relevant for pharmaceutical, natural product, organic and analytical chemists, biochemists and molecular biologists.

The book describes the current understanding of all issues relating to chirality, and appraises its impact on much of modern molecular science. It covers the natural occurrence of chirality on a variety of scales, and applications in research and industry. By bringing together the experience of a number of contributors who have played an influential role on the direction of research in this area, the text is well placed to explain the most important insights, developments and applications that have taken place.

Chirality will remain a central part of the understanding of all molecular scientists, and there is little doubt that its importance will increase. This book will ensure the reader has a thorough understanding of chirality, its importance and its application

De la contraportada

This book is for chemists in industry and in academic and research institutions. It is also for those in related disciplines such as pharmacy, physics and biochemistry. It covers the important applications of Chirality in industry and beyond, and its natural occurrence on a variety of scales from the nano to the macro. The importance of this field has continued to grow with strategically important applications in the pharmaceutical, flavour and fragrance industries. The launch of this title coincides with the 150th anniversary of the birth of Louis Pasteur who first described the phenomenon.
