Chiral Photochemistry

by Yoshihisa Inoue (Editor), V. Ramamurthy (Editor)

Overview

Control of molecular chirality is central to contemporary chemistry, biology, and materials-related areas. Chiral photochemistry employs molecular and supramolecular chiral interactions in the electronically excited state to induce molecular chirality, providing new and versatile strategies and surprising results unattainable by conventional therma
