asymmetric asymmetrical asymmetrically chirality enantiomer handed			The authors cover practical features of stability, reactivity, and workup, as well as such aspects of allylboration as the stereochemical control elements, including relative diastereoselection with crotylboranes, induced (internal) diastereoselection with chiral carbonyl compounds, auxiliary-controlled enantio-selective allylations with chiral borane reagents, and recent advances in catalysis of allylboration. Organic reactions; v.73 by SciTech Book News Titled "Convenient stable non-hygroscopic crystalline solid forms of racemic and chiral LA-plus salts," this patent protects the preparation of water-soluble salts of lipoic acid, including salts of the active chiral form R(+)-lipoic acid. Sabinsa Corp by Nutraceuticals World While its initial popularity is associated with chiral separations, considerable potential remains for its use in a wide range of applications.
