Course Description: The mission of the Pharmaceutical Chemistry course is to introduce
students to the structure, properties, and analysis (both qualitative and quantitative) of
pharmaceutical agents and metabolites as well as the fundamental techniques used for near
patient testing in clinical laboratories. Topics include some of the basic concepts in medicinal
chemistry as well as methods of pharmaceutical and biomedical analysis such as 1) the drug
discovery and development process, 2) review of organic functional groups found in drug
molecules, 3) drug-target interactions, 4) physicochemical properties related to drug action such
as acid-base properties, equilibrium, and stereochemistry, 5) Chemistry of OTC inorganic drugs,
6) Effect of chemical structure on the metabolism of drug molecules, 7) Fundamentals of
neurochemistry, 8) Chromatographic analysis of pharmaceutical agents, metabolites, and clinical
samples, 9) Methods for identification of pharmaceutical agents and metabolites, and 10)
Spectral techniques used in quantitative analysis of clinical samples.

CUMULATIVE FINAL

Course Policies
Quizzes and Examinations
There will be about ten in-class quizzes, three “hour” exams and one cumulative final
examination. Quizzes are worth 10% combined, each hour exam is worth 20%, and the final
exam is worth 30% of total course score. The cumulative final exam is optional for students
with 70% average after the third “hour” exam. There will be no lecture on the three
scheduled hour exam days. To be excused from a quiz, an hour exam or the final exam you must
produce a legal or medical excuse that has been approved by the Dean Office. As it is not our
policy to permit make-ups on quizzes and hour exams, your quiz average will be used for any
excused quiz and the final exam will be required more heavily weighted for an excused absence
in any hour exam. NO MAKE-UPS ON HOUR EXAMS OR QUIZZES! If you are excused
from the final exam, your course grade will be an “incomplete” or T-grade. You will have until
the end of the following semester to make-up for the final exam. Due to the extended period of
time that the student has available to study for the make-up final, the make-up final exam is more
rigorous and may include an oral examination component. You must bring a photo ID (either a
valid Rutgers Student ID card or a valid driver’s license that bears your photo) when you take
any examination. You will be required to sign all exams and quizzes. In addition, you must
check-in all book bags, notebooks, coats, and hats at the entrance to the lecture hall when you
enter to take an exam. You will only need No. 2 pencils and a simple calculator for all exams.
Graphing calculators, smart phones or any instrument with an alphanumeric keypad are
NOT permitted! Cell phones must be turned off during an exam.
Submitting Exams and Quizzes for Regrade
7-DAY GRACE PERIOD – for the hour exams and quizzes, you have seven days from the date
of return/posting of the graded exam/quiz to submit same for regrade, you must attach a letter
specifying which questions need to be reviewed and why. Submit the exam or quiz with the
letter to the lecture instructor. The instructor reserves the right to regrade the entire exam/quiz.
Academic Misconduct
University’s policy on academic integrity will be strictly followed. If a student is found to be
cheating during an exam or quiz, a grade of “F” will be given for the exam or quiz in question.

RUTGERS UNIVERSITY POLICY ON ACADEMIC INTEGRITY
FOR
UNDERGRADUATE AND GRADUATE STUDENTS
A.
B.
CHEATING – Cheating is the use of inappropriate and unacknowledged materials,
information or study aids in any academic exercise (exam, quiz, etc.). The use of books,
notes, programmable calculators and conversation with others is restricted or forbidden
during exams and quizzes. Their use in these cases constitutes cheating.
FACILITATING ACADEMIC DISHONESTY – Students who knowingly or negligently
allow their work to be used by other students or who otherwise aid others in academic
dishonesty are violating academic integrity. Such students are guilty of intellectual
dishonesty as the student who receives the material even though they may not themselves
benefit academically from that dishonesty.
LEVEL THREE VIOLATIONS
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
Copying on hourly exams or the final exam.
Acting to facilitate copying during an exam.
Using prohibited materials (i.e. books, notes) during an examination.
Collaborating before an exam to develop methods of exchanging information and
implementation thereof.
Altering examinations for the purposes of re-grading.
Acquiring or distributing an examination from unauthorized sources prior to the
examination.
The minimum sanction for Level III offenses is one semester suspension from the University.
The instructor has the option of assigning a failing grade (a zero!) for the exam/quiz in question.
LEVEL FOUR VIOLATIONS
1.
2.
Repeat LEVEL III offenses.
Having a substitute take an examination or taking an examination for someone else.
Level IV violations carry a penalty of permanent expulsion from the University.
