Features: This textbook is based on the "Medicinal Chemistry" edited by Peng Xixun. It retains some features of the original textbook but has made significant adjustments to the content of the structural system chapters. The textbook focuses on the research and development of new drugs as its main theme, combining the processes of new drug design, discovery, and development to introduce the methods and principles used in new drug research. It covers the structural types, rationalization, structure-activity relationships, variation patterns, and main synthetic routes of various drugs. It also includes content related to the chemistry and biological activity of chiral drugs. Additionally, it introduces an overview of drug research and development, the basic principles and methods of drug design, combining classical drug design methods, QSAR research, and computer-aided drug design. It also adds content on drug biotechnology. This textbook is suitable for use as a professional course textbook for undergraduate students in pharmacy and pharmaceutical engineering programs, as well as for reference by researchers in related fields.
