Module 12
Introduction to Retrosynthetic Analysis
1
Introduction to Retrosynthesis: Disconnections, Synthons, and Synthetic Equivalents
Explain the core principles of retrosynthesis, including disconnection, synthon, and synthetic equivalent.
2
Retrosynthetic Disconnections
Identify strategic bond disconnections in a target molecule that correspond to reliable chemical reactions.
3
Functional Group Interconversions for Retrosynthesis
Utilize functional group interconversion (FGI) as a strategic tool to enable more effective disconnections.
4
Multi-Step Reaction Mechanisms
Propose a plausible mechanism for a given reaction involving a sequence of two distinct mechanistic steps (e.g., substitution followed by elimination).
5
Carbocation Rearrangements: Proposing Reaction Mechanisms
Propose a plausible mechanism for a given reaction involving a carbocation rearrangement as a key step.
6
Retrosynthesis of Bifunctional Molecules
Construct a complete retrosynthetic plan and corresponding forward synthesis for a simple, bifunctional target molecule.
