The Disconnection Approach
Organic Synthesis: The Disconnection Approach, 2nd Edition Stuart Warren provides an extensive introduction to retrosynthetic analysis in organic chemistry. This study book is intended for students and professionals who want to deepen their understanding of designing organic syntheses using the disconnection approach.
Contents
The book systematically addresses the breakdown of target molecules into simpler building blocks, with chemical strategies and tools for selectivity, protection, and stereochemistry at the center. Using practical examples from pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and natural products, the application of retrosynthetic analysis is explained.
In addition to theory, this fully revised edition includes new chapters and up-to-date techniques, tailored to use in academic and industrial training programs. This reference work supports the learning process toward advanced synthesis planning and control.
