"Fundamentals of Medicinal Chemistry is a concise introduction to
the chemistry of therapeutically active compounds, written in a
readable and accessible style. Starting with a review of the
structures and nomenclature of the more common classes of naturally
occurring compounds found in biological organisms, the text then
covers the discovery and design of drugs, pharmacokinetics and drug
metabolism. The book concludes with a chapter on organic synthesis,
followed by a brief look at drug development from the research
stage through to marketing of the final product.
The text assumes little in the way of prior biological
knowledge and only a basic chemical knowledge. Relevant biology is
included through biological topics, examples and in the Appendices.
A concise introduction to the essentials of medicinal chemistry
Assumes little prior knowledge of biology. Incorporates summary
sections, examples, applications and problems, along with their
