About the Book :

We are glad to present a book on “Pharmaceutical Organic Chemistry” to you. The contents of this book are based on the syllabi of F. Y. B. Pharm. of major universities across India. The book has been written especially keeping in mind the understanding level of F. Y. B. Pharm. students. However there has been no compromise on the content of each topic so that the book can be used by a post
graduate student also if desired.

The first couple of chapters of the book provide an introduction to the general concepts of organic chemistry while the rest pertain to the important classes of organic chemistry. Each chapter also provides the students with practice questions. Solving the questions by the students will ensure that the learning objectives of the chapter have been met.
