Parallel Synthesis of Libraries of Medicinal Interest
John Spencer University of Greenwich at Medway Chatham ME4 4TB, UK.
Abstract:
Parallel synthetic methods have been applied towards the synthesis of privileged structures with potential biological activity, notably oxazoles, benzodiazepines, biphenyls and pyridines. Microwave and flow-mediated chemistries have been employed to accelerate the synthetic process and we will describe Suzuki couplings and noel reduction methodologies. A number of the compounds have been tested against a range of GPCR, enzyme, neglected disease and oncology targets.
