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