Medicinal chemistry incorporates bio-organic chemistry, organic
synthetic methods, physical organic chemistry and organic reaction
mechanisms. These areas of chemistry are crucial to the design and
synthesis of new drugs, both in academia and the pharmaceutical
industry. Chemistry and Medicines: An Introductory Text provides a
general introduction to this fascinating subject. The first
chapters contain a brief historical introduction followed by a
description of the chemical features involved in the adsorption,
distribution, metabolism and excretion of a drug. The remaining
chapters describe the chemistry underlying the design and synthesis
of some of the key drugs used to combat some major diseases of the
peripheral and central nervous system, infectious diseases and
cancers. A glossary and suggestions for further reading complete
this textbook. The book is aimed at those studying advanced
undergraduate and postgraduate courses in medicinal chemistry.
