Classification of Organic Synthesis
1. Linear Synthesis : tedious, inefficient but could be simple ex.) DNA, Peptide Synthesizer
2. Convergent Synthesis -- economic, time saving
3. Divergent Synthesis -- SAR, Combichem.
4. Biosynthesis driven Synthesis -- biomimetic synthesis
5. Symmetry considered synthesis -- simplification
6. Systematic Synthetic analysis and design
Objective of Organic Synthesis
1. Target : to be conquered ---- speed, elegance
2. Structural Information ---- unambiguous
3. S. A. R. : for design ---- creativity
4. Usefulness ---- economy
Chronology of Organic Synthesis
- 19C. Europe : Industry driven – Dyestuff, Aspirin- America : Weak Industry – more academic
1. Cope : PennState, MIT
2. Woodward : creativity3. Stork : 3-dimensional world
4. Corey : Logic5. Kish : managing
** Perception of a target **1. Static -- shape -- Design2. Dynamic -- relationship -- Control
** Things to Consider **1. Connectivity -- symmetry, complexity2. Stereochemical relationship3. Functionality -- substructures4. Reactivity : Stability -- air, heat, light, acid, base ……5. Compatibility6. Kinetic vs. Thermodynamic relationship
7. Products -- volatile, syrup, solubility in water, hazard, smell…..8. Characterization of the target molecules

" There is excitement, adventure, and challenge, and there can be
great art in organic synthesis."
-These alone should be enough, and organic chemistry will be sadder when none of its practitioners are reponsive to these
stimuli.-
" The structure known but not yet accessible by synthesis, is to the chemist what the
unclimbed mountain, the uncharted sea, the untilled field, the unreached planet, are to other man."
R.B. Woodward
" The organic chemist is
more than a logician and strategist; he is an
explorer strongly influenced to speculate, to imagine, and
even to create."
E.J. Corey
"When we have been faced with a problem of affecting a
chemical synthesis
we have sought known methods.
We have not paused to think why we do not invent a new method every time. If we
adopt this philosophy we are going to be extremely busy till the end of the century
(a) trying to equal the enzymes, and
(b) thinking of new ways of synthesis."
Sir Derek.H.R. Barton
"in defining strategies and reactions to construct complex molecules we require
synthetic methods that can
i) perform a wanted structural change and none other -
chemoselectiveii) orient the reacting partners in a correct fashion -
regioselectiveiii) create the correct orientations of the various parts of the molecules with respect to
each other - diastereoselectiveiv) enable the formulation of a molecule of one handedness or a mirror isomer -
enantioselective.Such extraordinary demands are exciting challenges."
