Abstract

“Computer-Aided Synthesis Planning” (CASP) is a special and important branch of computer chemistry. At present there are different theoretical and methodological approaches for solving the problems connected with the development of practicable programs. CASP-systems can be knowledge-, logic- or rule-oriented, and they can work with a backward- (retrosynthetic) or forwardstrategy. A further difference is, whether they operate in batch-or dialogue-mode.

In this paper the fundamental principles and some advantages and disadvantages are discussed. Moreover, the “RDS”-program, developed at the Academy of Sciences of GDR and tested, improved and used in VEB CKB, is described in some detail.
