Combinatorial chemistry
CHEMICAL METHODS DESIGNED TO RAPIDLY SYNTHESIZE LARGE NUMBERS OF CHEMICAL COMPOUNDS
Combinatorial Chemistry; Combichem; Combinational chemistry; Combinatorial libraries; Combinatorial library; Combinatorial synthesis; High-throughput chemistry; Combinatorial chemistry techniques
Combinatorial chemistry comprises chemical synthetic methods that make it possible to prepare a large number (tens to thousands or even millions) of compounds in a single process. These compound libraries can be made as mixtures, sets of individual compounds or chemical structures generated by computer software.
