4. • Chiral ligands are used in asymmetric synthesis.
• Ligand when chelation with metal center form asymmetric catalyst.
• Catalyst transfers chirality to the non-chiral substrate resulting in chiral product with
one enantiomer in excess.

12. CHIRAL INDUCTION
It describes the formation of an excess of one enantiomer over the other
from an achiral or racemic substrate using a chiral catalyst or chiral reagent is
called chiral induction.
12
15. • It is a catalyst formed by combination of transition metal of group 1-8
with organometallic compound of group 1-3.
• Used for the polymerization of olefins.
• Named after Karl Ziegler and Giulio Natta.
• Metal catalyst, like TiCl3 , co-catalysts are involved,like aluminum.
Most of the time our catalyst/co-catalyst pair are TiCl3 and
Al(C2H5)2Cl, or TiCl4 with Al(C2H5)3.
