Description for Fluorine in Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology
Hardback. The extraordinary potential of fluorine-containing biologically relevant molecules in biology, medicinal chemistry, and medical applications has been recognized by researchers who are not in the traditional fluorine chemistry field, and thus a new wave of fluorine chemistry is expanding its biomedical frontiers. Editor(s): Ojima, Iwao; Taguchi, Takeo. Num Pages: 640 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: MMG; PN; PS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 254 x 174 x 35. Weight in Grams: 1214.
The extraordinary potential of fluorine-containing molecules in medicinal chemistry and chemical biology has been recognized by researchers outside of the traditional fluorine chemistry field, and thus a new wave of fluorine chemistry is rapidly expanding its biomedical frontiers. With several of the best selling drugs in the world crucially containing fluorine atoms, the incorporation of fluorine to drug leads has become an essential practice in biomedical research, especially for drug design and discovery as well as development.
