FUNDAMENTALS OF PHARMACEUTICAL CHEMISTRY

About this Course

Course Description

Massive Open online course (MOOC) is the new additional dimension of education in the field of Pharmaceutical Chemistry. This course will allow to study online contents related to basic pharmaceutical chemistry and its applications in pharmacy. The development process of this MOOC involved four stages: Knowledge of basic parameters, Data handling, synthesis & mechanisms of reactions finally application of organic molecules in drug development. The novelty of this course is it Includes examples of drugs molecules to explain different functional groups and reaction mechanisms. This course will help learners to understand atomic theory, chemical kinetics, ionic equilibrium, and chemical thermodynamics with relevance to pharmaceutical applications. This course also includes IUPAC nomenclature, stereochemistry, and types of chemical reactions. This knowledge forms the basis for the students to comprehend higher knowledge in drug chemistry, formulation, and drug action.

Course Learning Outcomes

1 ) Describe the basic concepts of atomic theory, chemical, ionic, phase equilibrium, chemical kinetics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, nomenclature, and stereochemistry of organic compounds.
2 ) Solve problems related to basic organic reactions.
