A new approach to chiral synthesis that works under mild conditions has been validated with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and other tools by scientists in Europe. Paolo Melchiorre of ICIQ, Institute Of Chemical Research Of Catalonia, and colleagues developed the technique using enantioselective iminium ion chemistry and photoredox catalysis to form quaternary carbon stereocentres with high enantioselectivity.
Nuclear overhauser spectroscopy of chiral CHD methylene groups
Nuclear overhauser spectroscopy of chiral CHD methylene groups
Abstract
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) can provide a great deal of information about structure and dynamics of biomolecules. The quality of an NMR structure strongly depends on the number of experimental observables and on their accurate conversion into geometric restraints. When distance restraints are derived from nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY), stereo-specific assignments of prochiral atoms can contribute significantly to the accuracy of NMR structures...

Chiral anomaly: An end to decades-long hunt
http://www.spectroscopynow.com/common/images/thumbnails/14fcb4a4eee.jpgThe 'chiral anomaly' was first posited in the 1960s and suggested to exist in crystalline materials in the 1980s but has only now been detected by conductivity measurements in a semi-metal compound of sodium and bismuth.
