C3 Symmetry in Asymmetric Catalysis and Chiral Recognition

Christina Moberg. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. .

Abstract

Rotational symmetry can be an important factor in the design of highly selective receptors for chiral recognition. This is well known for C2 -symmetric compounds, but the concept can be extended to chiral compounds of higher symmetry such as 1.

Keywords: Asymmetric catalysis; Chirality; Rotational symmetry.
