No one has reached that level of selectivity before with a heterogeneous asymmetric catalyst.

New catalyst yields one-handed compounds

Despite the huge number of chiral homogeneous metal complexes that catalyze asymmetric processes with high enantioselectivities, the corresponding heterogeneous asymmetric catalysts are few and far between.

Chemical shifts

Also, the results of preliminary experiments on Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of ketones using synthesized compounds as chiral ligands in the asymmetric catalysts are presented.
