Pharmaceutical process development: current chemical and engineering challenges

This book is aimed at both graduates and postgraduates interested in a careerin the pharmaceutical industry and informs them about the breadth of the workcarried out in chemical research and development departments. It is also of value to academics, who understand the drug discovery arena, but have less appreciation of the drug development area, and are thus unable to advise students on the merits of careers in chemical development versus discovery. The book covers early and late stage chemical development, how safe and scaleable synthetic routes are designed, selected and developed, the importance of the chemicalengineering, analytical and manufacturing interfaces, the key enabling technologies, including catalysis and biocatalysis and the importance of the Green Chemical perspective and solid form issues.
