The Practice of Medicinal Chemistry

Medicinal chemistry is an interdisciplinary domain that combines synthetic organic chemistry and pharmacology to design and develop improved therapeutic agents. It focuses on the creation of new drugs with improved efficacy, selectivity, and safety profiles. By integrating knowledge from chemistry, biology, toxicology, and pharmacodynamics, medicinal chemists work to identify promising drug candidates, enhance their molecular properties, and understand their mechanisms of action. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to medicinal chemistry. The various sub-fields of the subject matter along with technological progress that have future implications are glanced at here. This book, with its detailed analysis and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
