The nadir (UK: /ËnÃ¦dÉªÉr/), (US: /ËneÉªdÉªÉr/) (from Arabic: ÙØ¸ÙØ±ââ / ALA-LC: naáºÄ«r, meaning counterpart) is the direction pointing directly below a particular location; that is, it is one of two vertical directions at a specified location, orthogonal to a horizontal flat surface there.
Asymmetric hydrogenation is a chemical reaction that adds two atoms of hydrogen preferentially to one of two faces of an unsaturated substrate molecule, such as an alkene or ketone.ne of these is in the asymmetric hydrogenation of N-unfunctionalized imines to give primary amines. Such species can be difficult to selectively reduce because they tend to exist in complex equilibria of imine and enamine tautomers, as well as (E) and (Z) isomers.
Asymmetry means one atom of carbon is chemicaly linked with four differend radicals or atoms and it is called as ciral carbon, which means that posses the power to reflect the polary light (there are Left and right molecules), this compounds have the same molecular weight, but are colled anantiomes and have different physical or chemical properties ...
