Woodward's rules, also known as Woodward's rules of thumb, refer to a set of heuristics used primarily in the field of organic chemistry to predict the effect of substituents on the stability and reactivity of molecular structures, particularly in the context of aromatic compounds. These rules were formulated by the chemist Robert Woodward in his work on the stereochemistry and structure of organic compounds.
