Current status of chirality in agrochemicals peter jeschke corresponding author despite enormous progress in catalytic asymmetric processes over the past decade few agrochemicals are produced in an enantiomerically pure or enriched form on an industrial scale since 2007 43 of the 44 products launched insecticides acaricides . Current status of chirality in agrochemicals however despite enormous progress in catalytic asymmetric processes over the past decade few agrochemicals are produced in an enantiomerically pure or enriched form on an industrial scale since 2007 43 of the 44 products launched insecticides acaricides fungicides nematicides and . Current status of chirality in agrochemicals peter jeschke corresponding author despite enormous progress in catalytic asymmetric processes over the past decade few agrochemicals are produced in an enantiomerically pure or enriched form on an industrial scale since 2007 43 of the 44 products launched insecticides acaricides . This book is divided into an introduction and 5 chapters on pyrethroids the importance of chirality in organophosphorus agrochemicals chiral acylanilides and chiral triazole related fungicides aryloxyphenoxypropanoate herbicides and chirality in insect juvenile hormones and pheromones. Extensive review of chiral agrochemicals but a to briefly review the current state of knowledge relating to chirality in agrochemicals and b to define where the specific consideration of chirality is advisable it will afford a scientific basis for regulatory decisions regarding the chirality of a certain agrochemical we
