asymmetric reduction
1Asymmetric induction — (also enantioinduction) in stereochemistry describes the preferential formation in a chemical reaction of one enantiomer or diastereoisomer over the other as a result of the influence of a chiral feature present in the substrate, reagent,… …
2Asymmetric synthesis — Asymmetric synthesis, also called chiral synthesis, enantioselective synthesis or stereoselective synthesis, is organic synthesis which introduces one or more new and desired elements of chirality. [GoldBookRef|title=asymmetric synthesis| file =… …
3Asymmetric federalism — or asymmetrical federalism is found in a federation in which different constituent states possess different powers: one or more of the states has considerably more autonomy than the other substates, although they have the same constitutional… …
4Asymmetric catalytic reduction — is the use of various chiral catalysts to reduce a prochiral organic compound to obtain a chiral product. This is one of the several techniques used in chiral synthesis.Typically, a transition metal is used with a bulky chiral ligand to such that …
5Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley reduction — The Meerwein Ponndorf Verley (MPV) Reduction in organic chemistry is the reduction of ketones and aldehydes to their corresponding alcohols utilizing aluminumalkoxide catalysis in the presence of a sacrificial alcohol[1]. The beauty in the MPV… …
6Corey-Itsuno reduction — The Corey Itsuno Reduction, also known as the Corey Bakshi Shibata (CBS) reduction, is a chemical reaction in which an achiral ketone is enantioselectively reduced to produce the corresponding chiral, non racemic alcohol. The oxazaborolidine… …
7Noyori asymmetric hydrogenation — The Noyori asymmetric hydrogenation is a chemical reaction described as an asymmetric reduction of β keto esters.[1][2] …
8Midland Alpine Borane Reduction — The Midland Alpine borane reduction, or simply the Midland Reduction, allows for the asymmetric reduction of carbonyls (primarily ketones) to alcohols.[1] It was developed in the late 1970s by Professor M. Mark Midland at the University of… …
9Carbonyl reduction — synthesis of an alcohol by ester reduction Carbonyl reduction in organic chemistry is the organic reduction of any carbonyl group containing compound by a reducing agent. Typical carbonyl compounds are ketones , aldehydes, carboxylic acids and… …
10Galanthamine total synthesis — ; 2006; 106(1) pp 116 133; (Review) DOI|10.1021/cr040415t] The natural source of galantamine are certain species of daffodil and because these species are scarce and because the isolation of galanthamine from daffodil is expensive (a 1996 figure… …
