Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Hydrogen
  • Catalysis

Ernest L. Eliel mainly investigates Stereochemistry, Computational chemistry, Stereoselectivity, Organic chemistry and Enantioselective synthesis. Ernest L. Eliel studies Stereochemistry, focusing on Intramolecular force in particular. His studies in Computational chemistry integrate themes in fields like Cyclohexane, Single bond and Electrophile.

His studies deal with areas such as Racemization and Chirality, Molecule, Prochirality as well as Stereoselectivity. His research on Organic chemistry often connects related areas such as Polymer chemistry. His research integrates issues of Aliphatic compound, Enantiomer and Benzene in his study of Enantioselective synthesis.

His most cited work include:

  • Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds (3527 citations)
  • Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds (1228 citations)
  • Tables of resolving agents and optical resolutions (689 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Stereochemistry, Organic chemistry, Medicinal chemistry, Inorganic chemistry and Computational chemistry. His work carried out in the field of Stereochemistry brings together such families of science as Reagent and Stereoselectivity. His research in Organic chemistry is mostly focused on Enantioselective synthesis.

Many of his studies on Medicinal chemistry apply to Ring as well. His Inorganic chemistry study incorporates themes from Metal, Lithium and Chloride. His ALUMINUM HYDRIDE research incorporates elements of Halide, Aluminium and Photochemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stereochemistry (22.55%)
  • Organic chemistry (21.09%)
  • Medicinal chemistry (16.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1984-2011)?

  • Stereochemistry (22.55%)
  • Organic chemistry (21.09%)
  • Medicinal chemistry (16.00%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Ernest L. Eliel spends much of his time researching Stereochemistry, Organic chemistry, Medicinal chemistry, Bicyclic molecule and Enantioselective synthesis. His Stereochemistry research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Reagent, Enantiomeric excess and Stereoselectivity. His Stereoselectivity research includes elements of Racemization, Chirality, Prochirality and Alkyl.

The concepts of his Medicinal chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Pseudorotation, Sulfur, 4-tert-Butylcyclohexanol, Nucleophile and Reaction mechanism. Ernest L. Eliel has included themes like Yield, Chemical solution, Crystallography, Nitrile and Diastereomer in his Bicyclic molecule study. Aliphatic compound is closely connected to Enantiomer in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Enantioselective synthesis.

Between 1984 and 2011, his most popular works were:

  • Basic Organic Stereochemistry (174 citations)
  • Highly stereoselective syntheses involving N-alkyl-4,4,7.alpha.-trimethyl-trans-octahydro-1,3-benzoxazine intermediates. 2. (61 citations)
  • Asymmetric synthesis of (5R,6S)-6-acetoxy-5-hexadecanolide, the major component of the oviposition attractant pheromone of the mosquito Culex pipiens fatigans, and two of its stereoisomers (50 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Hydrogen
  • Catalysis

His main research concerns Stereochemistry, Organic chemistry, Bicyclic molecule, Stereoselectivity and Enantioselective synthesis. Ernest L. Eliel interconnects Group and Grignard reagent in the investigation of issues within Stereochemistry. Ernest L. Eliel combines topics linked to 6-acetoxy-5-hexadecanolide with his work on Stereoselectivity.

His research investigates the connection with Enantioselective synthesis and areas like Enantiomer which intersect with concerns in Monoterpene, Bond cleavage, Aliphatic compound and Formal synthesis. He combines subjects such as Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, Molecule and Medicinal chemistry with his study of Redox. His Molecule research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Racemization and Chirality.
