Journal ArticleDOI
Principle and design of pseudo-natural products.
George Karageorgis,George Karageorgis,Daniel J. Foley,Daniel J. Foley,Luca Laraia,Luca Laraia,Herbert Waldmann,Herbert Waldmann +7 more
TL;DR: A design approach for the preparation of biologically relevant small-molecule libraries is discussed, harnessing the unprecedented combination of NP-derived fragments as an overarching strategy for the synthesis of new bioactive compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluating New Chemistry to Drive Molecular Discovery: Fit for Purpose?
TL;DR: It is shown how the application of simple computational tools can be used to develop a semiquantitative understanding of the potential of new methods to support molecular discovery.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Systematic Approach to Diverse, Lead-Like Scaffolds from α,α-Disubstituted Amino Acids.
TL;DR: A powerful strategy for the efficient lead-oriented synthesis of novel molecular scaffolds is demonstrated and each individual scaffold has the ability to specifically target lead-like chemical space.
Journal ArticleDOI
A unified lead-oriented synthesis of over fifty molecular scaffolds
Richard G. Doveston,Paolo Tosatti,Mark Dow,Daniel J. Foley,Ho Yin Li,Amanda J. Campbell,David House,Ian Churcher,Stephen P. Marsden,Adam Nelson +9 more
TL;DR: A unified synthetic approach is described that enabled the synthesis of 52 diverse lead-like molecular scaffolds from a minimal set of 13 precursors, exploiting a suite of robust, functional group-tolerant transformations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and Demonstration of the Biological Relevance of sp3 -rich Scaffolds Distantly Related to Natural Product Frameworks.
Daniel J. Foley,Philip G. E. Craven,P.M. Collins,Richard G. Doveston,A. Aimon,R. Talon,Ian Churcher,Frank von Delft,Stephen P. Marsden,Adam Nelson +9 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that frameworks that are distantly related to natural products can facilitate discovery of new biologically relevant regions within chemical space.
