There are branches of chemistry like physical chemistry that hardly involve chemical reactions. Whereas, inorganic and organic chemistries pretty much definitely have a lot of chemical reactions involved.


Is there a collective name for organic and inorganic chemistries? Is there a single word for the branch of chemistry that deals with the possible products given some reactants and reaction conditions?

As a collective term, *synthetic chemistry* refers to a branch of chemistry that deals with chemical reactions that produce new molecules. Please keep in mind that today these chemical branches are hard to distinguish. A synthetic chemist must know a lot of practical spectroscopy (traditional physical chemistry/analytical chemistry) in order to study his /her reactions. Also physical chemists study a lot of chemical reactions.
