In a classical kinetic resolution, two enantiomers of a racemate
are transformed into chiral products at different rates with a
maximum theoretical yield of 50%. However, the need to reduce costs
and waste in synthesis have led to efforts to develop novel
resolution procedures proceeding beyond this 50% limited yield.
This has led to the evolution of classical kinetic resolution into
dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR), allowing a quantitative yield of
one of the enantiomers. DKR combines the resolution step of kinetic
resolution with an in-situ racemization of the chirally-labile
substrate. It is only in the last two decades that chiral green
organocatalysts have been demonstrated to be capable of promoting
DKRs considerably expanding the synthetic scope of the powerful
concept of DKR. Collecting all the developments in the field of
DKR, this book shows that a wide variety of organocatalysts allow
excellent levels of stereocontrol and yields in many types of
transformations. It is a great resource for academics and
industrialists interested in green enantioselective catalytic
reactions.
