Course Objectives and Requirements: 

Medicinal Chemistry is one of the major curriculum for students in pharmacy. Through this course, we hope to make the students master the basic knowledge as followed: synthesis principles, synthesis methods, synthesis operations, purification of products, physical and identifications of products, and so on. We want to let the students learn about the basic processes of drug synthesis and cultivate their abilities of analysis and solving problems, and make a foundation for future work in drug synthesis and purification.
