Medicinal Chemistry
The qualified success and general appeal of Medicinal Chemistry is not only confined to the Indian subcontinent, but it has also won an overwhelming popularity in other parts of the world. Specific care has been taken to maintain and sustain the fundamental philosophy of the textbook embracing rigidly the original pattern and style of presentation with a particular expatiated treatment of synthesis of potential medicinal compounds for the ultimate benefits of the ?teachers and the taught? alike.
The present thoroughly revised and skilfully expanded Fourth Edition essentially contains three new and important chapters, namely : Molecular Modeling and Drug Design (Chapter 3), Adrenocortical Steroids (Chapter 24), and Antimycobacterial Agents (Chapter 26) so as to make the textbook more useful to its readers.
With the advent of thirty chapters the present updated form of Medicinal Chemistry will prove to be an asset for M.Pharm./B.Pharm. Degree Students, M.Sc. Pharmaceutical Chemistry, M.Sc. Applied Chemistry and M.Sc. Industrial Chemistry throughout the Indian Universities.
Medicinal Chemistry appears as a newly designed and artistically presented in a two-colour scheme so as to facilitate a distinctly more effective use of the book.
This highly readable, lucid, handy, and exceptionally knowledgeable textbook will definitely win a better, bigger, and confident place for itself amongst its valued readers.
