Summary

Stereochemistry remains an actively changing area of knowledge. Topics include chirality, the determination of absolute configurations, stereochemical descriptors, chiroptic properties, asymmetric synthesis, the resolution of racemates, confirmational analysis of both alkanes and heterocycles and much more. In addition to figures, equations and tables, it is profusely illustrated with examples both historical and current.

Author Biography

EUSEBIO JUARISTI is currently Professor of Chemistry at Centro de Investigacion y de Estudios Avanzados del Instituto Politico Nacional, Mexico. The author of seven chemistry books, Dr. Juaristi received the Mexican Academy of Sciences Award for Young Scientists in 1988, and the Inter-American Science and Technology Prize of the Organization of American States in 1990. More recently, in 1998, he received the Presidential Medal, the highest recognition for Mexican scientists. VADIM SOLOSHONOK is a professor in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Oklahoma.
