Bioorganic Chemistry and Chemical Biology: Principles, Design, and Applications

This book, based out of the Bioorganic Chemistry that the authors teach, provides a valuable and up-to-date resource for academic instructors developing and teaching courses in bioorganic chemistry at the upper undergraduate and graduate levels. It opens with chapters discussing basic concepts of biochemistry and physical/organic chemistry principles and mechanisms before moving on to the specifics of bioorganic chemistry – biomolecules, synthetic strategies and methods, and applications in areas like drug discovery and natural products. The text’s didactic nature is enhanced through included problem sets at the end of each chapter and digital ancillaries of book illustrations for professors to use in their lectures
