The rate of advance in areas of science is seldom constant. Usually
certain fields effloresce with activity because of the ealization
that solutions are possible to long standing important problems. So
it is now with asymmetric catalysis, a field which promises to
change profoundly the strategic thinking of synthetic chemists. As
this Report will show, reagents which can induce catalytic
enantiocontrol of chemical transformations could represent the
ultimate synthetic method. Nearly all synthetic strategies of
complex molecules involve steps which require enantiocontrol and,
in many cases, a specific catalytic transformation embodying enan
tiocontrol has enormous advantages in terms of the rate and economy
of the reaction. Because asymmetric catalysis is in a formative
stage, workers with different backgrounds have joined the field.
This Workshop had representatives with organometallic, organic,
structural, kinetic, enzymatic, microbiological and industrial
backgrounds. Each had his own perspective and this Report
represents a consensus of this group of eleven people. The result
is probably as compre hensive and balanced a view of the subject as
is possible at present. It is hoped that those who have until now
had but a glancing interest in asymmetric catalysis will find this
Report a useful indication of its present state. We believe that
asymmetric catalysis will have an increasing impact on the
development of chemistry and will eventually dominate much of
synthetic and industrial chemistry."
