Abstract

Chiral molecules play a central role in the world around us, with an ever-increasing number of chiral molecules with varied applications requiring readily available methods for determining their enantiopurity and absolute configuration. This article focuses on chiral derivatization agents (CDAs) for use in NMR spectroscopy, which provide cheap, practical, and reliable methods for chiral analysis. The general principles of CDA methodologies will be presented, with a focus on CDAs that have been developed for analyzing the enantiopurities and absolute configurations of chiral compounds that contain commonly encountered functional groups.
