Pharm.D Year 3: Medicinal Chemistry notes. Medicinal Chemistry links molecular features with activity across major drug classes. Use paired structures to explain differences rather than learning chemical diagrams without context.
What to revise
- Design: distinguish scaffold, substituent and structure-activity relationship.
- Classes: compare anti-infective, cardiovascular and endocrine structures studied.
- Reasoning: connect a structural change with the explanation provided in class.
A quick self-check
Redraw two related compounds and highlight the group that differs. Summarise the comparison using your notes, without turning it into a clinical recommendation.
