Download or read book Shape in Chemistry written by Paul G. Mezey and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 1993-08-26 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Shape in Chemistry' looks at molecular shape from a unique perspective: It introduces the reader to the topological concepts and methods of precise shape characterization that are applicable for direct, non-visual description and analysis of general molecular shapes. The author provides a pictorial introduction to all the topological tools necessary for the subjects discussed. Mathematical description is also provided at an easily comprehensible level. New concepts are introduced beginning at the familiar level of stereochemistry and lead on to more advanced topological shape analysis methods. The structure of the book reflects the author's desire to bring the reader to an early appreciation of the power of topology in chemistry. After a brief review of the quantum chemical concept, the author compares the merits of visual, computer graphics methods and nonvisual, algorithmic shape analysis methods. The book ends with the concepts of approximate symmetry and various generalizations of symmetry. 'Shape in Chemistry' is surely destined to become standard reading in the field. It presents a valuable addition to the literature on shape and modeling of molecules for non-specialists organic, physical and medical chemists, researchers in various aspects of QSAR and pharmacological drug design and advanced undergraduate and graduate students.

Download or read book Molecular Structure by Diffraction Methods written by G. A. Sim and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 1973 with total page 841 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Specialist Periodical Reports provide systematic and detailed review coverage of progress in the major areas of chemical research. Written by experts in their specialist fields the series creates a unique service for the active research chemist, supplying regular critical in-depth accounts of progress in particular areas of chemistry. For over 80 years the Royal Society of Chemistry and its predecessor, the Chemical Society, have been publishing reports charting developments in chemistry, which originally took the form of Annual Reports. However, by 1967 the whole spectrum of chemistry could no longer be contained within one volume and the series Specialist Periodical Reports was born. The Annual Reports themselves still existed but were divided into two, and subsequently three, volumes covering Inorganic, Organic and Physical Chemistry. For more general coverage of the highlights in chemistry they remain a 'must'. Since that time the SPR series has altered according to the fluctuating degree of activity in various fields of chemistry. Some titles have remained unchanged, while others have altered their emphasis along with their titles; some have been combined under a new name whereas others have had to be discontinued. The current list of Specialist Periodical Reports can be seen on the inside flap of this volume.

Download or read book Molecular Structure and Statistical Thermodynamics written by Kenneth S. Pitzer and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1993 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the course of his distinguished career of over 55 years, Kenneth S Pitzer published over 360 scientific papers. Included in this volume are 72 papers, selected for their historical importance and continuing significance. In early work, where spectroscopic data were incomplete or, later on, where the systems of interest were so complex that a deductive solution from molecular information was impractical, Pitzer interrelated molecular structural information, statistical methods and thermodynamic measurements to advance the understanding of molecular systems. This volume considers all three aspects and, by putting together selected papers, highlights the cohesiveness of certain advances through time and development. Several papers from journals not widely circulated can also be found in this selection of papers.

Download or read book Handbook of Molecular Descriptors written by Roberto Todeschini and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-07-11 with total page 688 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantitative studies on structure-activity and structure-property relationships are powerful tools in directed drug research. In recent years, various strategies have been developed to characterize and classify structural patterns by means of molecular descriptors. It has become possible not only to assess diversities or similarities of structure databases, but molecular descriptors also facilitate the identification of potential bioactive molecules from the rapidly increasing number of compound libraries. They even allow for a controlled de-novo design of new lead structures. This is the most comprehensive collection of molecular descriptors and presents a detailed review from the origins of this research field up to present day. This practically oriented reference book gives a thorough overview of the different molecular descriptors representations and their corresponding molecular descriptors. All descriptors are listed with their definition, symbols and labels, formulas, some numerical examples, data and molecular graphs, while numerous figures and tables aid comprehension of the definitions. Cross-references throughout, a list of acronyms and notations allow easy access to the information needed to solve a specific research problem. Examples of descriptor calculations along with tables of descriptor values for a set of selected reference compounds and an up-to-date reference list add to the practical value of the book, making it an invaluable guide for all those dealing with bioactive molecules as well as for researchers.
