Application of asymmetric autocatalysis to the determination of absolute configurations of amino acids with low enantiomeric excesses.
A method is proposed for the determination of the absolute configuration of amino acids with low enantiomeric excesses by using asymmetric autocatalysis of pyrimidyl alkanol with amplification of enantiomeric excess.
