This book is a standard in the field of analytical chemistry, especially wet chemistry. It is not intended to be a textbook for a quant course, unlike Dan Harris’s Quantitative Chemical Analysis or Doug Skoog’s Fundamentals of Analytical Chemistry, which are both excellent college texts. However, it is an outstanding ready-reference for chemists and chemistry [...]
This edition has been completely updated, revised, and expanded. To achieve this, the previous approach of having each chapter be self-contained has been abandoned; repetition has been reduced to a minimum so that more topics could be covered in more detail. The topics of chromatography and mass spectrometry have been greatly expanded, when compared with [...]
The core idea of chemistry is that the whole can be explained by its parts. The properties of matter can be explained by the bits that compose it. Understand the bits, and you understand the whole. Philosophers call this idea reductionism. Reductionism has not always been popular in the history of thought, nor is it [...]
This book summarizes 100 essential mechanisms in organic chemistry ranging from classical such as the Reformatsky Reaction from 1887 to recently elucidated mechanism such as the copper(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition. The reactions are easy to grasp, well-illustrated and underpinned with explanations and additional information. Free Download 100 Must Know Mechanisms in Organic Chemistry by Roman Valiulin in [...]
Welcome to the fourth edition of Forensic Science. The previous edition of this book was published in 2011. Since then, there have been significant changes in the organisation and accreditation of forensic science in the United Kingdom and the relevant parts of Chapters 1 and 2 have been revised accordingly. Also since the last edition [...]
An Introduction to Medicinal Chemistry is the leading text for university courses on this subject. Renowned for being a textbook loved equally by both students and lecturers, it presents complete coverage in an accessible and engaging style. The text begins with the essential biochemistry on which an understanding of medicinal chemistry is built, introducing the [...]
While drug therapies developed in the last 50 years have markedly improved the management of some types of cancers, treatment outcomes, and drug side-effects for the most common types remain unacceptable. However, recent technological advances are leading to improved therapies based on targeting distinct biological pathways in cancer cells. Chemistry and Pharmacology of Anticancer Drugs [...]
This book is primarily intended for post-graduate students of science, but is simple enough for an undergraduate student to understand. Every chapter begins with simple concepts related to the topic of the chapter, and gradually Quantum Mechanical and Group Theoretical treatments are introduced for a deeper understanding. I have tried to keep the language simple [...]
Organic chemistry is the branch of chemistry in which covalent carbon compounds and their reactions are studied. A wide variety of classes of compounds such as vitamins, drugs, natural and synthetic fibers, as well as carbohydrates, peptides, and fats consist of organic molecules. Organic chemists determine the structures of organic molecules, study their various reactions, [...]
