Unexpected Inversions in Asymmetric Reactions: Reactions with Chiral Metal Complexes, Chiral Organocatalysts, and Heterogeneous Chiral Catalysts

Inversions in catalytic reactions involving asymmetrical molecular structures are examined. Although chiral organic and metal compounds are known for these inversions, they are by no means unique to them.
