Topics that should be covered in the paper:
• Brief background and introduction of the drug. This may include items such as historical importance, discovery and/or extraction development, disease treatment, biological activity, mechanism of action, and/or pharmaceutical treatment.
• Thorough descriptions of the syntheses and reactions. A well-designed, properly formatted figure containing each synthesis should be included and drawn using a chemical drawing program such as ChemDraw. A thorough description and explanation of the significance of the synthesis and reactions should accompany the figure.
• Complete mechanisms for the key reactions in the syntheses. Draw reaction mechanisms including appropriate mechanism arrows and intermediates should be included for the key steps in the synthesis.
• Key experimental reaction considerations. Describe any experiment reaction conditions that were unique or significant to each particular synthesis.
• Explain and discuss the main differences in the synthetic routes that were chosen.
