Pharmaceutical Inorganic Chemistry

The book is intended for use by undergraduate students of pharmacy . It follows the general arrangement and classification of drugs. The general format of presentation of each compound includes introduction preparation physical characters. Chemical properties identification tests purity tests assay methods and uses.

A comprehensive introduction to inorganic chemistry and, specifically, the science of metal-based drugs, Essentials of Inorganic Chemistry describes the basics of inorganic chemistry, including organometallic chemistry and radiochemistry, from a pharmaceutical perspective. Written for students of pharmacy and pharmacology, pharmaceutical sciences, medicinal chemistry and other health-care related subjects, this accessible text introduces chemical principles with relevant pharmaceutical examples rather than as stand-alone concepts, allowing students to see the relevance of this subject for their future professions. It includes exercises and case studies.

The idea of creating new drugs is now moving from serendipity to rational design.Drug discovery and development process is intended to make available medicines that are safe and effective in cultivating the length and quality of life and relieving pain and suffering. However, the process is very complex, time consuming, and resource intensive, needing multi-disciplinary expertise and innovative approaches. The area of pharmaceutical chemistry is varied and contains many areas of expertise. Natural-product and analytical chemists separate and recognize active components from plant and other natural sources. Theoretical chemists create molecular models of existing drugs to evaluate their properties. These computational studies assist medicinal chemists and bioengineers design and synthesize compounds with enhanced biological activity. Emerging trends in medicinal chemistry efforts are moving towards the more targeted approach and this is being revolutionized and enhanced by genomics and proteomics. Target identification and validation are the first key stages in this process. Pharmaceutical Inorganic Chemistry is devoted to scientific and technical research on the developments of new drugs and the advances of manufacturing technology of drugs and intermediates. The worldwide contributions by eminent researchers and authors cover the comprehensive coverage of new drug research, methods of synthesis; complexing and cheiating agents, results of pharmacological, toxicological, and biochemical studies; investigation of structure; and impurities in pharmaceutical substances with the development of ecologically safe and economically feasible methods of industrial production. It is very important for scientists all over the globe to enhance drug discovery research for better human health.

The main object of this book is to attract the under graduate and post graduate students, to learn the basic theories of Pharmaceutical Inorganic Chemistry. Thus the book is aimed to eliminate the inadequacy in teaching and learning of Pharmaceutical Inorganic Chemistry by providing enormous information about the inorganic compounds used in Pharmacy. -The content of the book is innovative and presented in eight chapters, in a concise form as per the needs of the students. -Incorporation of all the Chemical & Pharmaceutical aspects of the inorganic compounds and their formulations -Describing all the aspects of inorganic pharmaceuticals in easy to understand manner is the first of its kind. -For each chapter, a brief introduction, detailed discussion of the basic theory and applications in pharmacy are provided. -Pharmaceutically important inorganic pharmaceuticals are discussed in detail with the sources, official standards, preparations, physical and chemical properties, tests for identification, uses and their storage conditions. -The principles of assay of each compound, which is difficult to remember by the students is described in a student friendly manner to understand easily and able to reproduce well in examinations, is the first of its kind.- Presentation with simplified way of explanation along with chemical reactions of all compounds helps to reproduce well in examinations.

The study of elements and the compounds they form is referred to as inorganic chemistry. Organic chemistry, on the other hand, is concerned with carbon and the compounds it forms. However, there is a lot of crossovers between organic and inorganic, thus the two categories are not completely separate from one another. The book's key features include an overview of general elements and the relevance of those aspects, with a focus on the applications in the pharmaceutical field. is a standard textbook that is often used for an introductory level inorganic chemistry undergraduate course. It provides a complete pedagogical framework to assist students with understanding essential concepts. This book gives a decent introduction to the topic; explains a variety of inorganic compounds as well as the minimal chemical facts and ideas that are required to comprehend current inorganic chemistry; offers a good overview of the subject. provides an advanced and in-depth descriptive treatment of all of the official compounds featured, with a significant emphasis on the production, characteristics, assay, and medicinal uses of the compounds. The book “A Textbook of Pharmaceutical Inorganic Chemistry” is prepared in an exhaustive fashion and includes facts that have been brought up to date about the subjects that are covered in the curriculum. The book Covers the fundamentals of basic inorganic chemistry that are necessary for undergraduate pharmacy students, while students of chemistry, biology, and other relevant subjects will also find this book to be fascinating and informative.
