Publisher's Synopsis
To be prepared to solve various synthetic problems, it is increasingly important for chemists to familiarise themselves with a range of current and emerging tools and techniques. This book provides a broad overview of contemporary research and new technologies applied to organic synthesis. Detailed chapters, written by a team of experts from academia and industry, describe different state-of-the-art techniques such as computer-assisted retrosynthesis, spectroscopy prediction with computational chemistry, high throughput experimentation for reaction screening, and optimisation using Design of Experiments (DoE). Emphasising real-world practicality, the book includes chapters on programming for synthetic chemists, machine learning (ML) in chemical synthesis, concepts and applications of computational chemistry, and more.
