Chemical library synthesis using convergent approaches.

New strategies are continuously being developed in combinatorial and diversity-oriented synthesis. Convergent design in target-oriented synthesis is commonly employed for construction of complex molecules. In this mini-review, we describe examples of convergent library design and synthesis as well as potential areas for future development.
