The book combines theoretical knowledge with the industrial production of medicines. It describes the equipment of the industrial unit used for drug synthesis and production, as well as the chemical schemes and synthesis of important groups of medicines manifesting anticoagulant, antipyretic, antiseptic, pain-relief, anti-tumour, anti-tuberculosis and other properties. The book will be useful for chemistry students, medical students, teachers, toxicologists, pharmacologists and other specialists engaged in drug synthesis and production.

Coumarin is a structural fragment of different natural and synthetic compounds which demonstrate a wide range of pharmacological activities. Its derivatives are of interest in many fields because of their properties as oral anticoagulants or rodenticides, photosensitizers, anti-HIV agents and antibiotics. There has been continuous interest in the synthesis of these compounds. This book describes various experiments for modifying the structure of clinically used anticoagulants, and establishes the structure of the synthesized products through X-ray analysis. It also identifies unexpected...

This textbook provides a comprehensive guide to the fundamentals of inorganic and organic chemistry for participants in chemistry and environmental protection competitions, national and international chemistry Olympiads, chemistry candidates and students of chemistry, medicine, dentistry and pharmacy.

Sample problems and solutions are provided for a significant number of the topics and will be a useful and interesting tool for developing skills of analysis, comparison, generalisation, and searching for relationships and dependencies.

Serious attention is paid to the...

This book offers exemplary solutions to chemistry problems, in which it is shown to young people that in addition to a full and complete representation of the chemical properties of substances by means of chemical equations, a commentary on the processes involved is also necessary. Problems with appropriate solutions can be the basis for a good preparation in chemistry, for national competitions, for national and international chemistry Olympiads, but also for gaining the in-depth knowledge necessary for successful performance during the study of chemistry, as well as medicine at university,...
