Beschreibung

    Medicinal Chemistry is concerned with chemistry, synthesis, and structure activity relationships, mode of action and uses of drugs of carbon compounds. There are several books are available on medicinal chemistry, the material in most of them is present in a diffused form or highly specialized. In the ever expanding knowledge of the chemistry of drugs it is very difficult to go through the various textbooks, journals, and pharmacopoeias. Medicinal Chemistry has virtually widened the scope to tackle all vital aspects related to such super specialties as: Bulk Drug Industry, Small Scale Drug Manufacturing Units, R & D Laboratories in Pharmaceutical Industries; PG/Ph.D., Research Scholars.  In this book we have describe the basic concept   behind the physiochemical properties affecting on drug properties, their action and synthesis which are useful to various graduated and undergraduate students.

Preface

It has been recognized that while pharmacy students need a solid foundation in medicinal chemistry knowledge the extent cannot be the same as chemistry students may need. The pharmacy profession and the role of pharmacists in the modern healthcare systems have evolved quite rapidly in the world. The services that pharmacists provide the introduction of supplementary prescribing, provision of health checks, patient counselling and many others role. The impact of these recent changes is more innocuous in the area of pharmaceutical medicinal chemistry. As all drugs are chemicals, and pharmacy is mainly about the study of various aspects of medicinal drugs, including manufacture, storage, actions and toxicities, metabolisms and managements, chemistry still plays a vital role in pharmacy education. However, the extent at which chemistry used to be taught a couple of decades ago has certainly changed significantly. In this issue by compiling a medicinal chemistry book for Pharmacy students, which will cover general, medicinal chemistry and their synthesis in relation to drug molecules which cover the specific area.. Thus, the aims of our book are to provide the knowledge and overview of all core topics related to medicinal chemistry. We recognize that learning styles and levels vary from student to student, we can still try to strike the balance in terms of the level and standard at a point, which is not too difficult or not too easy for any students, but will certainly be student friendly. This book is dedicated to my parents and Family.
