Advantages
Substrate Control
Exploits resident chirality
Disadvantages
Requires strong bias in substrate Different strategy needed for each epimer
Reagent Control
Same strategy sometimes applicable to synthesis of both epimers Applicable to substrates with low bias
Not applicable if substrate has strong bias Requires reagents with very strong bias
