Realising Lead‐Oriented Synthesis
The Organic Chemistry Universe is “Top Heavy”
•
Lead‐oriented synthesis (LOS) seeks to address high attrition rate of drug candidates.
•
Defined ‘lead‐like’ properties allow for focussed lead identification.
•
Our poster describes:
1. A bespoke computational tool for identifying molecular scaffolds and synthetic methodologies of high value.
2. The development of a chemical tool‐kit used to exemplify a library of lead‐like scaffolds that are also of value as novel fragments.
