This book is designed to serve as a textbook for core as well as elective courses offered to undergraduate and advanced undergraduate students enrolled in chemistry. This textbook comprehensively deals various topics of organic chemistry such as amino acids, peptides, proteins and enzymes. The text is divided into four chapters: a chapter each dedicated to amino acids, peptides, proteins and enzymes, respectively. The important reactions have been explained with the help of the mechanisms involved. It gives a detailed account of the solution phase and solid phase synthesis of peptides as well as discussing the structure and function of some biologically important peptides. It also covers the classification, nomenclature and mode of action of enzymes, and a detailed account of the structure and function of different co-enzymes. The book also includes pedagogical features like end-of-chapter exercises to aid in self learning. Given the scope, this textbook will be useful for graduate and advanced graduate students pursuing the course of chemistry, especially organic chemistry.
The second edition of Environmental Studies discusses the various types of natural resources and the problems faced in conserving them and the effective management of resources for sustainable lifestyles. Based on the latest UGC syllabus, the book focuses on the concepts, structure and function of an ecosystem, threats to biodiversity and conservation of biodiversity, causes, effects and control measures of pollution, hazardous effects of human population on environment and management of environment quality and the several types of pollution.

Environmental chemistry is becoming increasingly crucial in understanding important issues that range from climate change to local pollution problems. It is the study of the chemical and biochemical phenomena that occur in the environment. It also studies the effects of these chemicals on ecosystems, animals, and human health. Advanced Environmental Chemistry discusses environment and its biological cycles. The book provides students and professionals with a clear understanding of the science and its applications. It provides an in depth introduction to the chemical composition of the atmosphere and water. The author also thoroughly explores important concepts such as soil pollution, radioactive pollution, and environment toxicology. All the chapters are followed by multiple choice and short answer questions.
Organic chemistry has played a vital role in the development of diverse molecules which are used in medicines, agrochemicals and polymers. Most ofthe chemicals are produced on an industrial scale. The industrial houses adopt a synthesis for a particular molecule which should be cost-effective. No attention is paid to avoid the release of harmful chemicals in the atmosphere, land and sea. During the past decade special emphasis has been made towards green synthesis which circumvents the above problems. Prof. V. K. Ahluwalia and Dr. M. Kidwai have made a sincere effort in this direction. This book discusses the basic principles of green chemistry incorporating the use of green reagents, green ...
In this book on quantitative analysis and reagent preparation, the authors adopt a novel approach-all the preparations have been given in the form of organic reactions in alphabetical order, with their respective reaction mechanisms. The procedures of some preparations are also discussed. Estimation of various compounds and functional groups is also included. A complete is deveoted to chromatography, with exercises.
This book is written for undergraduate and graduate students in chemical engineering and chemistry. Designed to cover all main aspects of the field, it is written with a progressive logic, defining terms and concepts as they are introduced. The book describes and classifies polymers and copolymers, including detailed coverage of their properties. It also examines the types of chain growth and step growth polymerization and copolymerization reactions. Other main topics include polymer characterization techniques, practical experimental practices, industrial processing techniques, and commercially important polymers such as biopolymers, thermoplastics, and conducting polymers.
