STEREOCHEMISTRY covers all important aspects of stereochemistry starting right from the history of stereochemistry and discussing molecular geometry in terms of bond distances and dihedral angles aongwith the biological importance of chirality and its effect on taste, odor, agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals followed by the basic principles, conformations and configurations, the methods for writing structures in two dimensional and three dimensional projections and their interconversions. The molecular symmetry and chirality and stereochemical nomenclature, prostereoisomerism and stereoselective synthesis, chirality in molecules devoid of any stereogenic atoms, practical methods for determining stereochemistry of organic compounds using NMR and HPLC based methods and methods for determination of enantiomeric composition are discussed in detail.
