Extensive experimentation and high failure rates are a
well-recognised downside to the drug discovery process, with the
resultant high levels of inefficiency and waste producing a
negative environmental impact. Sustainable and Green Approaches in
Medicinal Chemistry, Second Edition reveals how medicinal chemistry
can play a direct role in addressing this issue. After providing
essential context to the growth of green chemistry in relation to
drug discovery, the book goes on to identify a broad range of
practical techniques and useful insights, revealing how medicinal
chemistry techniques can be used to improve efficiency, mitigate
failure and increase the environmental benignity of the entire drug
discovery process. Drawing on the knowledge of a global team of
experts, Sustainable and Green Approaches in Medicinal Chemistry 2e
encourages the growth of green medicinal chemistry, and supports
medicinal chemists, drug discovery researchers, pharmacologists and
all those in related fields across both academia and industry in
integrating these approaches into their own work. This first volume
of the second edition covers synthesis methods following green
chemistry principles, contributing to sustainability by saving
energy, using lesser toxic reagents/solvents/catalysts and
environmentally benign sources including plants and agricultural
materials.
