  Computational Chiroptical Spectroscopy and reaction mechanisms in Sulfur-containing natural products.

The first part of the talk will cover the essential features of modern chiroptical spectroscopies, and the second will illustrate these with several case studies. These will include the rather controversial histories of the determination of the absolut...

  Computational Chiroptical Spectroscopies: an important symbiotic instrument for synthetic chemists.

Of the 61M known compounds, it is estimated only around 1M have been reported as scalemic, a term used to describe any non-racemic chiral compound. Of these, an unknown proportion have a clearly established absolute configuration for the dominant enant...
