Organocatalytic Dynamic Kinetic Resolution Hélène Pellissier CNRS, France 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%. Many efforts have been devoted to overcoming this limitation which has led to the evolution of classical kinetic resolution into dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR), allowing a quantitative yield of one of the enantiomers. Collecting together all the latest developments in the field of DKR, this book shows that a wide variety of organocatalysts allow excellent levels of stereocontrol and improved yields in many types of transformations.

Covering all aspects of theoretical and computational chemistry, from current theoretical methods and techniques to new developments in emerging areas, this series comprises up-to-date and timely references for postgraduate students and practising chemists. Books in the series cover both the methodologies at the core of the discipline and applications at the interface with physics, materials, computer science, biological and life sciences. They provide timely, in-depth treatments at the frontiers of theoretical and computational chemistry. Cheminformatics and Bioinformatics at the Interface with Systems Biology Bridging Chemistry and Medicine Aman Chandra Kaushik Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China | Dongqing Wei Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China | Shakti Sahi Gautam Buddha University, India | Ajay Kumar National Sun Yat-sen University, Taiwan Interfacing chemoinformatics and bioinformatics with systems biology can be a powerful tool in understanding the mechanisms of patho-physiological systems and identifying lead molecules for various diseases. Addressing the lack of knowledge on the fundamental aspects of the various computational tools for drug discovery, this book is a compilation of recent bioinformatics and chemoinformatics approaches, and their integration with systems biology. Written primarily for researchers and academics in chemoinformatics and bioinformatics, it may also be a useful resource for advanced-level students. Multiscale Dynamics Simulations Nano and Nano-bio Systems in Complex Environments Dennis R. Salahub University of Calgary, Canada | Dongqing Wei Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China Over the past decade great strides have been taken in developing methodologies that can treat more and more complex nano- and nano-bio systems embedded in complex environments. This book summarizes this progress, focusing on key methodological breakthroughs that have allowed the field to prosper.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy or surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is a surface-sensitive technique that enhances Raman scattering by molecules adsorbed on rough metal surfaces or by nanostructures. Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) is an approach to surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) in which enhancement of Raman scattering occurs only at the point of a near atomically sharp pin, typically coated with gold. Both of these techniques can be used to study the properties of catalysts as well as other materials. This book provides a succinct overview of methods in plasmon enhanced spectroscopy and how they can be applied to catalysis research. Beginning with a look at the theory behind the techniques the book then goes into a practical and hands-on description of the various methods.
