Abstract
The problem of the design of stereoselective approaches for the construction of complex molecules can be simplified by an analysis of the symmetry properties of potential intermediates and the consequent prospects for stereocontrol at each stage of the synthesis.1 The following factors are important considerations in planning an asymmetric synthesis:
-
1.
types of chiral element present
-
2.
symmetry elements in partial structures
-
3.
oportunities for Stereodifferentiation.
