Edited by one of the leading experts in the field, this handbook brings together the absolute top authors to cover every aspect of chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis. As such, it closes a gap in the literature by summarizing the widely dispersed information on privileged ligands in one handy reference. Spanning everything from biphosphine to salen ligands, this is the ultimate "must-have" for every organic chemist in academia, as well as the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industry working in asymmetric catalysis.
