Publication of the above synthetic work made me relax, believing that the A-factor research must have been concluded. In January 1983, I received a letter from Dr. J. Buckingham, the editor of Dictionary of Organic Compounds and Atlas of Stereochemistry. He informed me that there are two papers with different conclusions on the absolute configuration of paraconic acid, and advised me to check our conclusion of the absolute configuration of (—)-A-factor. Indeed, in 1965 Tocanne and Asselineau gave (/ -configuration to (-)-paraconic acid, while in 1968 they revised it to S. 

The Atlas of Stereochemistry lists the absolute configurations of about 3000 organic substances, with derivations. Apart from optical isomerism, it lists many examples whose chirality is owed to isotopic substitution, to chiral axes or planes, or to chiral centres other than carbon (Klyne and Buckingham, 1978).
