I figure there has to be some sort of program out there where you can just draw the chemical you'd like to synthesize and it will give you theoretical steps on how to produce it based on known reactions. Does anyone know of such a program?
I will award the points right away.

there are indeed such programs. One I know of is called LHASA and was developed by chemists at an american university...i forget which one. i don't have details with me here, but if you are really interested I can see if i can get more details from work.

Most computer programs in chemistry are used to draw molecules and predict IR, NMR, MS etc spectra.
The other programs are computational, used to look at energy of conformations, reaction energy diagrams, things like that.
I don't think a computer has been used for synthetic organic chemistry in that way. You can use computers to search journal articles for known syntheses.

I commonly advise residing house windows Defender, because of the fact it extremely is loose and provides protection from the 'worst of the worst' offenders. the only themes i might have alongside with your selections are a million) the countless courses in all likelihood won't play nicely mutually, and a pair of) a number of them isn't supportable in case you have a issue. (I as quickly as had a very tense time uninstalling an "uninstaller!") finally, in the experience that your notebook is HP, you will possibly desire to have a restoration partition which will help restoration issues in case you have a issue. desire this helps...
