An asymmetric catalysis is a form of catalytic reaction wherein a chiral catalyst controls the production of a chiral molecule to favour the synthesis of one stereoisomer over another. It’s a good way to make stereoisomeric molecules for pharmacological purposes. Among the transition metals, copper...
