Experimental Medicinal Chemistry

Experimental Medicinal Chemistry: A Practical Guide is a comprehensive laboratory guide designed for undergraduate and postgraduate students of chemistry, pharmacy, and related disciplines. It presents 30 carefully selected experiments that cover the synthesis, purification, and analysis of medicinally important compounds. Each experiment is systematically organized into requirements, principle, procedure, and calculations, enabling students to follow and perform the experiments with clarity and confidence.The book emphasizes both classical and pharmaceutical-relevant reactions, bridging theory with practical application. Safety measures, accurate reagent handling, and good laboratory practices are consistently highlighted, ensuring responsible experimentation. By explaining the principles behind each experiment and including detailed calculations, the book strengthens conceptual understanding and analytical skills.Written in a clear and accessible style, this book serves not only as a laboratory manual but also as an inspiration for students to appreciate the role of medicinal chemistry in drug discovery and therapeutic development.
