Computer Aided Molecular Design


Book Description

CAMD or Computer Aided Molecular Design refers to the design of molecules with desirable properties. That is, through CAMD, one determines molecules that match a specified set of (target) properties. CAMD as a technique has a very large potential as in principle, all kinds of chemical, bio-chemical and material products can be designed through this technique.This book mainly deals with macroscopic properties and therefore does not cover molecular design of large, complex chemicals such as drugs. While books have been written on computer aided molecular design relating to drugs and large complex chemicals, a book on systematic formulation of CAMD problems and solutions, with emphasis on theory and practice, which helps one to learn, understand and apply the technique is currently unavailable.·This title brings together the theoretical aspects related to Computer Aided Molecular Design, the different techniques that have been developed and the different applications that have been reported. ·Contributing authors are among the leading researchers and users of CAMD·First book available giving a systematic formulation of CAMD problems and solutions







Solvents and Solutions: Structure and Properties


Book Description

A UNIQUE BOOK ON THE PRESENT STATUS OF SOLVENTS AND SOLUTIONS WITH IMPORTANT PROBLEMS RELATED TO THEIR STRUCTURE AND PROPERTIES The literature on the properties of solvents and solutions used in academic research and in a wide range of industries has grown enormously during the last four decades, and is scattered in different specialized journals. Solvents and Solutions is a groundbreaking text that offers a systematic compilation of important problems related to selected properties of solvents and solutions based on the literature published so far. The author places emphasis on explaining the basic concepts involved in understanding the properties and behavior of various solvents and solutions of electrolytes and nonelectolytes in a consistent manner. After a description of the general characteristics of structure of solvents and solutions and the solubility of electrolytes and nonelectrolytes under normal temperature and pressure conditions, the book first deals with different aspects of the density and the refractive index of solvents and dilute as well as concentrated solutions, and finally with the transport (i.e. viscosity and electric conductivity) and thermal properties of solvents and solutions. Solvents and solutions is the first text devoted to the description and discussion of their properties since the publication of a monograph on the physical properties of aqueous electrolyte solutions more than three decades ago. The main features of this book are: Reflects developments in the investigation of solvents and solutions during the last three decades. Outlines basic concepts involved in understanding the properties and behavior of solvents and solutions. Describes and discusses different properties of ionic liquids as solvents and the behavior of their mixtures with other commonly used solvents. Contents of different chapters are not only self-contained but the contents are practically independent of each other. Written as a practical guide for researchers who are looking for an uptodate overview of the physical and transport properties of solvents and solutions, and as a reference source for workers in chemical industries and related fields and for graduate students of chemical engineering and physical chemistry.
