    Information

    Aims, contents and method of the course

    Students will learn basic and advanced concepts of organic stereochemistry:
    - symmetry, asymmetry and chirality (concepts, definitions, examples)
    - central, axcial and facial chirality (examples)
    - racemates, enantiomers, diastereomers - properties and purity (ee, de), analytical and quantitative methods (chiral resolution)
    - determination of the absolute configuration of enantiopure compounds
    - concepts and examples of stereodifferentiating reactions (Izumi-Tai nomenclature)
    - simple diastereo-differentiating reactions
    - induced (enantioselective) diastereo-differentiating reactions
    - enantio-differentiating reactions
