The description of organic reactions.
Shinsaku Fujita · Journal of Synthetic Organic Chemistry Japan · 1986
I discuss various methods of describing organic reactions in order to construct such an integrated system as will support both retrieval and synthetic design : keywords, codes (such as Theilheimer' s, Cohen' s, GREMAS, Hendrickson' s and Litter' s one), graphical expressions by Roberts and Hendrickson, methods based on connection tables of substrates and products (Corey, Matsuura, and Dubois), and matrix representations (Ugi and Arens). I reveal “Structure-Reaction type” paradigm which has been hidden in these conventional methods.
