- TRUE OR FALSE All atoms play a role in the physicochemical and pharmacologic properties of a molecule. Sophistication and advancement in technology are the main driving forces of drug development. Organic medicinal chemistry is the study of matter, specifically, all carbon-containing compounds. A functional group will always have the same physicochemical properties, regardless of its neighboring atoms in a molecular structure. Addition of a single methyl group in a drug molecule may result to changes in physical, chemical, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacologic properties. Steric effects occur when bulky and large functional groups are near each other in a molecular structure. Molecules that are highly capable of hydrogen bonding tend to be more soluble in nonpolar solvents.arrow_forwardOrganic compounds have predictable chemical and physical properties determined by their respective structures.
