Some comments on the problems that are encountered by organic chemists who attempt the total synthesis of a molecule having several asymmetric centers. These difficulties explain the relatively slow progress of that branch of chemistry, although some of its successes merit being considered works of art.
对试图全合成具有多个不对称中心的分子的有机化学家所遇到的问题的一些评论。这些困难解释了该化学分支进展相对缓慢的原因，尽管其一些成功成果堪称艺术之作。
