Quinone-Based Compounds in Drug Discovery: Trends and Applications provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the latest advances in the field of drug discovery using quinone-based materials. The book covers various aspects of quinone-based materials such as their synthesis, characterization, and applications in drug discovery, consolidating current research. It introduces quinones in the pharmacology context and then describes current developments in drugs for key diseases and conditions. Final chapters deal with the regulatory and commercial framework to take quinone-based drugs to the market. This book will benefit a wide range of readers, including researchers, scientists, and graduate students in the field of drug discovery. Chemists and biochemists will also benefit from the contents of this book.
