This volume provides an introduction to the subject of medicinal chemistry. It includes eight articles which highlight the frontiers of a number of research topics within medicinal chemistry. Subjects covered include biological and agro-chemical properties of macrolides of fermentation origin, development of lexitropisms, recent trends in quinoline chemistry, and use of dexmorphan and carbetapentane as anticonvulsant and neuro-protectant agents.
