Summary

"This book introduces this important technique, to help students to design their own organic syntheses. This edition has been revised and updated with a modern look. Recent examples and techniques are included and illustrated additional material has been added to take the student to the level required by the sequel. This book provides a full course in retrosynthetic analysis for chemistry and biochemistry students and a refresher for organic chemists working in industry and academia."--BOOK JACKET.
