Enantioselective Synthesis Quiz

A chemical reaction that forms achiral molecules

A chemical reaction that does not involve chirality

A chemical reaction that produces equal amounts of enantiomeric and diastereomeric products

A chemical reaction that favors the formation of a specific enantiomer or diastereomer (correct)

A chemical reaction that does not involve chirality

A chemical reaction that forms achiral products

A chemical reaction in which one or more new elements of chirality are formed in a substrate molecule (correct)

A chemical reaction that produces only one enantiomer

It reduces the cost of synthesis

It only produces racemic mixtures

Different enantiomers or diastereomers of a molecule often have different biological activity (correct)

It has no relevance in pharmaceuticals
