This study deals with the basic principles of asymmetric catalysis, focusing on their synthetic significance. It describes homogeneous asymmetric hydrogenation, asymmetric catalysis via chiral metal complexes, heterogeneous catalysis and non-organometallic catalysis. It collects a range of stereoselective reactions that illustrate various strategies and methodologies.
