About this ebook
Topics in Stereochemistry, previously edited by "the father of stereochemistry" Ernest L. Eliel, is a longstanding, successful series covering the most important advances in the field. The much-anticipated Volume 26 on stereochemical aspects of organolithium compounds includes chapters on the following topics:
* Asymmetric Deprotonations Using Chiral Lithium Amide Bases
* Self-Regeneration of Stereocenters (SRS) via Stereolabile Axially Chiral Intermediates
* Overview of Carbanion Dynamics and Electrophilic Substitutions in Chiral Organolithium Compounds
* Oxiranyllithiums as Chiral Synthons for Asymmetric Synthesis
* Test on the Configurational Stability/Lability of Organolithium Compounds
* Mechanism and Stereochemical Features in Asymmetric Deprotonation Using RLi/(-)-Sparteine Bases
* Dynamic Resolutions of Chiral Organolithiums
Volume 26 of Topics in Stereochemistry marks the end of an era, while developing a bridge to the next generation. A new generation in publishing, parallel to a new generation in Stereochemistry mandated a new venue and modus operandi for Topics. Zurich, the home of Werner and Wislicenus, has a unique heritage in Stereochemistry. Fortunately, the Wiley family's publishing partnerships include Verlag Helvetica Chimica Acta, a house with a reputation for superior quality in publishing. Indeed, within the pages of its namesake periodical, Helvetica Chimica Acta, one finds many of the seminal research works of stereochemistry's giants. As such, a transfer of editorial operations to Zurich and a collaboration bringing Topics as a series closer to periodical status provides a growth platform for the future.

About the author
Robert E. Gawley (Volume Editor) is Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. He received his undergraduate degree (B.S.) from the Stetson University in 1970 and his graduate degree (Ph.D.) from the Duke University in 1975. After his stay as a research associate at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, he joined the faculty at the University of Miami. His research interests are in asymmetric synthesis using chiral organometallics, development of new synthetic methods, development of new sensors for marine toxins and other xenobiotics, as well as natural products isolation and structure elucidation. He has received the Provost's Award for Scholarly Activity and the Distinguished Alumnus Award. He is a Fogarty Senior International Fellow, Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, and Secretary of the chemistry section of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Jay S. Siegel (Series Editor) is a professor at the Organic Chemistry Institute at the University of Zurich. He received his undergraduate degree from California State University and his MA and PhD from Princeton University. His research interests include molecular design, chemical synthesis, and structural analysis, the three principle components of modern stereochemistry.
