“Organosulfur compounds in asymmetric synthesis” is an excellent 2008 Wiley book [1] that covers the main results within this chemistry. Two chapters of this book are relevant for the reader of the present work [2, 3]. This book has been accompanied by highly reputed recent review articles published in journals, among which three are mentioned [4–6]. The present work aims to update the Wiley book with the most recent results. However, the present work is not exhaustive but selective due to the editorial limitations. In this selection, meaningful reviews were preferred to many original papers. Within these constraints, it was decided to write a guide to extri- cate the vast literature on this topic by focusing on the most successful sulfur chiral building blocks and briefly analyzing their merits. To this end, a short introduction to past work is needed to understand the recent progress fully.

Abstract
“Organosulfur compounds in asymmetric synthesis” is an excellent 2008 Wiley book [1] that covers the main results within this chemistry. Two chapters of this book are relevant for the reader of the present work [2, 3]. This book has been accompanied by highly reputed recent review articles published in journals, among which three are mentioned [4–6]. The present work aims to update the Wiley book with the most recent results. However, the present work is not exhaustive but selective due to the editorial limitations. In this selection, meaningful reviews were preferred to many original papers. Within these constraints, it was decided to write a guide to extri- cate the vast literature on this topic by focusing on the most successful sulfur chiral building blocks and briefly analyzing their merits. To this end, a short introduction to past work is needed to understand the recent progress fully.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
