Description

A deck of cards made from two synthetic schemes. Each scheme is presented in a retrosynthetic and forward synthetic direction, giving 4 "suits." In addition to holding an ordered place in the synthesis, each card also has a reagent or reaction designation, giving it a "kind." Collect 3-of-a-kind and 4-in-a-row as in any traditional rummy game.

Detailed rules for the Contract Rummy-style game are available on the website: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/ed500657u [pubs.acs.org]
