title: Chiral metal nanoparticle-catalyzed asymmetric C-C bond formation reactions.
abstract: Chiral ligand-modified metal nanoparticles possess an attractive potential for application in asymmetric synthesis. This article focuses on chiral-nanoparticle-catalyzed asymmetric C-C bond formation reactions and discusses the nature of the active species.
