Non-sequential processes for the transformation of a racemate into a single stereoisomeric product: proposal for stereochemical classification.
Non-sequential processes which allow the transformation of a racemate into a single stereoisomeric product without the occurrence of an "undesired" isomer are classified according to their underlying stereochemistry. A re-definition of the term "de-racemization" is proposed.
