Assignment of absolute configuration using chiral reagents and NMR spectroscopy.
An overview of chiral reagents that are used to assign the absolute configuration of particular classes of compounds using NMR spectroscopy is presented. The use of chiral derivatizing agents, chiral solvating agents, metal complexes, and liquid crystals is described.
