Optically active cyanohydrins with high levels of enantiomeric purity were obtained following a simple procedure. |
In my view, it is dangerous to rely on enantiomeric ratios of protein amino acids because of the omnipresent problem of terrestrial contamination. |
In a syndiotactic macromolecule, the configurational repeating unit consists of two configurational base units that are enantiomeric. |
Louis Pasteur performed the first enantiomeric resolution in 1848 while studying crystals of a salt of racemic tartaric acid. |
The identity and enantiomeric purity of chiral starting materials and chiral reagents should be established. |
The phosphine that was used was not enantiomerically pure, but even so the resulting product showed a 15 per cent enantiomeric excess. |
