Unexpected Inversions in Asymmetric Reactions: Reactions with Chiral Metal Complexes, Chiral Organocatalysts, and Heterogeneous Chiral Catalysts

摘要

The author wishes to express his gratitude to Professors A. Molnar, F. Notheisz, Drs. Gy. Szollosi, K. Balazsik, K. Felfoldi, I. Bucsi and K. Szori, and Sz. Cserenyi, who made significant contributions to the development of the heterogeneous catalyzed reactions. In particular, I am indebted to Prof. Arpad Molnar for making himself promptly available for extremely helpful discussions, for a detailed scrutiny of the manuscript, and for his critical comments. I would like to warmly thank my wife for her indispensable help in the preparation of this review. Financial assistance by the Hungaryen National Science Foundation (OTKA K72065) is also gratefully acknowledged.
