Ethers - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Understanding the Binding Role of Alcohols and Phenols in Drug Molecules

The role of alcohols and phenols in drug molecules is crucial as they are frequently involved in hydrogen bonding interactions. By creating analogues with modified functional groups, such as ethers and esters, the importance of specific groups can be determined. The presence or absence of hydrogen b
