Ultrasonics Sonochemistry
|July 10, 2001
Abstract:
Sonochemical processes involved in asymmetric synthesis are reviewed. The goal of this overview is to provide a comprehensive picture about the fields of both enantioselective and diastereoselective reactions accelerated or initiated by ultrasounds. Since the most, in many cases comparative, data are available in heterogeneous metal catalysis, the emphasis will be placed on these enantioselective hydrogenations, however, other applications such as phase transfer catalysis etc. will also be cited.
