Organofluorine Compounds in Biology and Medicine

This book covers topics on biochemically relevant organofluorine compounds and their synthesis and mechanistic pathways. Organofluorine compounds have renewed interest in pharmaceutical industry, and therefore a concise book on this topic is highly relevant to the scientific community involved in this area.


  • Lists all FFDA approved fluorine based therapeutics
  • Contains active structures and Gaussian program to calculate the structure characteristics of all compounds
  • Explains the mechanistic of all biochemical reactions
