• Resumen

  • Road map problems ask students to integrate their knowledge of organic reactions with pattern recognition skills to �fill in the blanks� in the synthesis of an organic compound. Students are asked to identify familiar organic reactions in unfamiliar contexts. A practical context, such as a medicinally useful target compound, helps students to see why the study of organic reactions may be important. Drawing from the primary literature, a small library of these problems was developed.
