This lively, highly illustrated text provides undergraduate and postgraduate. With examples used extensively to illustrate the concepts presented, An Introduction to Drug Synthesis> is the ideal resource for any pharmaceutical or medicinal chemistry student who needs a thorough understanding of how the concepts of organic synthesis are applied to the development of therapeutic drugs. Graham Patrick Beginning Organic Chemistry 1 (Workbooks in Chemistry) Illustrated Edition by Graham L. Buy a copy of An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry book by Graham L. Avoiding excessively detailed descriptions of the underlying synthetic pathways, the book focuses on how synthesis can be used in a strategic way - how and why different synthetic approaches are adopted, and the pros and cons of each.

Written by an experienced and talented author to complement his existing An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry, the book illustrates how organic synthesis makes important contributions throughout the drug design and discovery process - from the generation of novel drug structures to the improved efficiency of large scale synthesis. Later sections covering such aspects as isomers, non-equivalent carbon and hydrogen atoms, and stereochemistry will be relevant to most parts of university courses in organic chemistry and are necessary pre-requisites before effective progress can be made to Beginning Organic Chemistry 2 - Workbook.īeginning Organic Chemistry 1 Paperback edition by Graham L.An Introduction to Drug Synthesis explores the central role played by organic synthesis in the process of drug design and development. Areas covered include drawing structures, functional groups, and formulae, and molecular weights. Space is then provided for the student's answer, and the full model answer is given - encouraging thought about what is being read at all times.

Beginning with the structures and properties of the basic groups of organic compounds, he goes on to consider organic compounds in the areas of pharmaceuticals, polymers, food and drink, petrochemicals, and nanotechnology. Designed to challenge the student to test his or her knowledge, each section leads the student through the subject matter by giving a short piece of theory, followed by a question. In this Very Short Introduction Graham Patrick covers the whole range of organic compounds and their roles. The first of two workbooks through which students entering first year university courses can gain confidence in organic chemistry, this text will also be of use in lower and upper-level and courses in chemistry.
