For B.Sc 3rd year students of all Indian Universities. The book has been prepared keeping view the syllabi prepared by different universities on the basis of Model UGC Curriculum. A large number of illustrations, pictures and interesting examples have been provided to make the reading interesting and understandable. The question that have been provided in the Exercise are in tune with the latest pattern of examination.

Taking an interdisciplinary approach, this new volume brings together innovative research, new concepts, and novel developments in the application of new tools in green chemistry and sustainable technology. The diverse coverage includes chapters on ionic liquids as green solvents, an environmentally friendly approach to the synthesis and biological evaluation of α-aminophosphonate derivatives, the application of nanotechnology in biological sciences and green chemistry, eco-friendly polymers, the effect of global warming and greenhouse gases on environmental system, and more.

This volume presents some of the latest research and applications in using natural substances and processes for pharmaceutical products. It presents an in-depth examination of the chemical and biological properties of selected natural products that are either currently used or have the potential for useful applications in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. It covers emerging technologies and case studies and is a source of up-to-date information on the topical subject of natural products and microbial technology. It provides an applied overview of the field, from traditional medicinal targets to cutting-edge molecular techniques. Natural products have always been of key importance to drug discovery, but as modern techniques and technologies have allowed researchers to identify, isolate, extract, and synthesize their active compounds in new ways, they are once again coming to the forefront of drug discovery.

This textbook has been designed to meet the needs of B.Sc. Second Semester students of Chemistry as per the UGC Choice Based Credit System (CBCS). With its traditional approach to the subject, this textbook lucidly explains principles of chemistry. Important topics such as chemical energetics, chemical/ionic equilibrium, aromatic hydrocarbons, alkyl/aryl halides, alcohols, phenols, ethers, aldehydes and ketones are aptly discussed to give an overview of physical and organic chemistry. Laboratory work has also been included to help students achieve solid conceptual understanding and learn experimental procedures.

Imidazole-Based Drug Discovery covers all categories of imidazole and its derivatives, synthesis, pharmacological applications and drug-based studies. Imidazole scaffolds act as a channel between organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry and compel researchers to explore new drug candidates. This book provides detailed coverage of several greener synthetic protocols and pharmacological applications of imidazole derivatives that are useful to researchers working on designing more promising clinical lead compounds with this scaffold. It also includes information on past decades of research on the synthesis and biological applications of imidazole derivatives. This is an ideal resource for researchers in organic chemistry both in academic and industrial settings, as well as postgraduates in chemistry and medicinal chemistry. Reviews the most current developments and future perspectives of imidazole on different disease therapies to achieve the ultimate goal of disease eradication Discusses the role of imidazole in contemporary science, technological innovation, drug development, critical challenges and future research directions Covers emerging trends on different eco-benign pathways to synthesize imidazole derivatives for the development of simpler synthetic protocols
