A program for automatic synthesis generation which focuses on the shortest, most economical routes. Uses a generalized model of organic reactions and functionality to simplify the problem space. Macintosh beta version available for download.

LHASA (Logic and Heuristics Applied to Synthetic Analysis) is among the first programs for retrosynthetic analysis. Also on this page, the DEREK system for toxicology prediction. Available for Silicon Graphics/Irix, and Linux.

Provides software to view and predict 3D molecular structure and properties and to analyze the relationship between structure and properties or structure and reactivity. CAChe is a tool for medicinal, polymer, process and synthetic chemists.

A program based on a mathematical representation of organic synthesis that generates all products of a synthesis on an input of organic compounds.

Software for reaction prediction, synthesis design, classification of organic reactions, chemical information, calculation of 3D coordinates, and calculation of physicochemical parameters.

Laboratory management program that includes functions for stock keeping, a laboratory notebook, and search tools for products or reactions records. User guide, screen shots, and demo available.
