The #NordicRetrosynthesisChallenge was organized by Svenska Kemisamfundet, Soumalisten Kemisten Seura, Kemisk Forening/Danish Chemical Society and Norge Kjemisk Selskap!

The audience honorary prize goes to "Masters in Cleavage" from Lund University.

Extract from the jury's motivation: "The retrosynthetic analysis led to a very elegant proposal for a rather concise and convergent synthesis of the target molecule."

Congratulations to Robin Petersson and Erik Sundén from the Team "Tralling for Terpenes" from @Uppsala University who won the 1st #NordicRetrosynthesisChallenge!

Congrats to the three finalist teams of the #NordicRetrosynthesisChallenge:
Tralling for Terpenes from Uppsala University, Eduardoncita’s lab from AstraZeneca and Masters in Cleavage from Lund University Don't miss their final presentation on 28th of May 15:00 (CET)
