关于此电子书
Chirality in Supramolecular Assemblies addresses many of these aspects, presenting a broad overview of this important and rapidly developing interdisciplinary field. Topics covered include:
- Origins of molecular and topological chirality
- Homochirogenesis
- Chirality in crystallinity
- Host-guest behavior
- Chiral influences in functional materials
- Chirality in network solids and coordination solids
- Aspects of chirality at interfaces
- Chirality in organic assemblies
- Chirality related to biocatalysis and enzymes in organic synthesis.
This book is a valuable reference for researchers in the molecular sciences, materials science and biological science working with chiral supramolecular systems. It provides summaries and special insights by acknowledged international experts in the various fields.

Emeritus Professor F. Richard Keene
Adjunct Professor of Chemistry, School of Pharmacy & Molecular Sciences, James Cook University, Australia and Department of Chemistry, University of Canterbury, New Zealand. Honorary Visiting Research Fellow, School of Chemistry & Physics, University of Adelaide
Richard Keene is an acknowledged international authority on stereochemistry in coordination chemistry - and significantly, in the control of stereochemistry within polymetallic supramolecular assemblies - and has over the last decade has published widely on (i) its effect on intramolecular electron and energy transfer in such assemblies, and (ii) its influence on sequence- and structure-selectivity in the interaction of such complexes with nucleic acids, and their cytotoxicity to cancer cells and bacteria. He has over 160 publications (h-index 44), as well 6 chapters in monographs and a patent.
