Despite the available alternative techniques, optical resolution via diastereomeric salt formation remains the most widely used method of preparing pure enantiomers. This is the first book to exclusively address this important organic chemical process. It provides fast, one-stop access to a wealth of information, including all of the available data on 100 resolving agents, a list of 500 optically active compounds available in bulk along with their suppliers, data on more than 3,500 resolutions, and 4,200 citations.
