During recent years, stereochemistry has undergone a phenomenal
growth both in theory and practice, with a concomitant increase of
interest among the organic chemists, biological chemists, medicinal
chemists, and pharmacologists. The present text provides an
up-to-date, coherent, and comprehensive account of the subject
starting from the fundamentals and leading up to the latest
developments as far as practicable. Emphasis has been placed on a
symmetry-based approach to molecular chirality, stereochemical
terminologies (modern stereochemistry is replete with them),
topicity and prostereoisomerism, conformational analysis, dynamic
stereochemistry, chiroptical properties, and assignment of absolute
configuration to chiral molecules. Dynamic stereochemistry has been
discussed with reference to conformation-reactivity correlation,
stereoselective synthesis, and pericyclic reactions. A large
crosssection of organic reactions with stereochemical implication
has been incorporated. Attempts have been made to familiarise the
readers with modern instrumental techniques, nuclear magnetic
resonance in particular, used for stereochemical investigation.
Each chapter is provided with a summary which highlights the main
points of the text.
