This short review deals with the topical subject chirality in bioorganosilicon chemistry . Two different aspects will be discussed (i) biological recognition of enantiomeric organosilicon drugs and (ii) biocatalysis as a method for the preparation of optically active organosilicon compounds . Most of the experimental material described in this article (which does not lay claim to completeness) comes from our own laboratory.
