Product Description
The aim of this textbook is to provide advanced undergraduates and postgraduates with information on the chemistry of biomolecules. In addition to descriptions of their syntheses and chemical properties, it explains how events at the molecular level create biological properties. The book covers the chemistry of those groups of compounds of biological importance which are included in undergraduate courses, such as carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and steroids, plus two areas of pharmaceutical interest - prostaglandins and beta-lactam antibiotics. No previous knowledge of biology is assumed. |
