Examples
-
Our findings do not overcome the problems presented by enantiomeric cross inhibition because none of our templates are copied efficiently when the monomeric substrate is racemic.

-
Finally, we note that further enhancements in solution-phase enantiomeric excess may be discovered in more complex multi-component systems with a greater number of equilibrium solid and liquid phases.

-
If I was NOT talking about enantiomeric cross inhibition experiments at this point, WHY would I have cited and quoted Orgel?

-
There is a little latitude in incorporating incorrect enantiomers, which is promising as per Orgel, but not enough to write off enantiomeric cross inhibition as a problem in general.

-
However, enantiomeric cross-inhibition is certainly a serious problem.

For an example of one reaction that autocatalytically produces an enantiomeric excess, look up the Soai reaction. mmurphy21

-
This reaction utilised the transition metal titanium (Ti) and chiral ligands and gave high enantiomeric excess.

-
These catalyse, in complexes with rhodium, the synthesis of certain amino acids with an enantiomeric excess of up to 100%.

-
In the development of better asymmetric hydrogenation catalysts it is important to increase the energy difference between the transition complexes in order to obtain, as a consequence, larger enantiomeric excess.

-
The reason for the enantiomeric excess is to be found in the hydrogenation stage, as the hydrogen can be added in two ways that give the different enantiomers at different rates.
