Nucleophilic substitution is ubiquitous in chemistry and well studied. Nucleophilicity leaving-group ability have been related to various reactant properties, such as electronegativity, size, polarizability, others. Yet, the state-of-the-art some extent still phenomenological. Here, we try arrive at a straightforward, causal relationship between reactants' electronic structure their S(N)2 reactivity. To this end, explored potential energy surfaces of backside frontside reactions X(-) + CH3Y...

It is textbook knowledge that nucleophilic substitution at carbon (SN2@C) proceeds via a central reaction barrier which disappears in the corresponding silicon (SN2@Si). Here, we address question why from SN2@C to SN2@Si despite fact these processes are isostructural and isoelectronic. To this end, have explored analyzed potential energy surfaces (PES) of various Cl- + CR3Cl (R = H, CH3) SiR3Cl model reactions CH3, C2H5, OCH3). Our results show nature SN2 essence steric, but it can be...

Physicochemical descriptors commonly used to define "drug-likeness" and ligand efficiency measures are assessed for their ability differentiate marketed drugs from compounds reported bind efficacious target or targets. Using ChEMBL version 26, a data set of 643 acting on 271 targets was assembled, comprising 1104 drug–target pairs having ≥100 published per target. Taking into account changes in physicochemical properties over time, analyzed according class, therapy area, route...

To obtain a set of consistent benchmark potential energy surfaces (PES) for the two archetypal nucleophilic substitution reactions chloride anion at carbon in chloromethane (S(N)2@C) and silicon chlorosilane (S(N)2@Si), we have explored these PESes using hierarchical series ab initio methods [HF, MP2, MP4SDQ, CCSD, CCSD(T)] combination with six Gaussian-type basis sets, up to g polarization. Relative energies stationary points are converged within 0.01 0.56 kcal/mol as function basis-set...

The process of discovering new drugs is a lengthy, time-consuming and expensive process. Modern day drug discovery relies heavily on the rapid identification novel 'targets', usually proteins that can be modulated by small molecule to cure or minimise effects disease. Of 20,000 currently reported as comprising human proteome, just under quarter these potentially known molecules Storing information in curated, actively maintained databases help researchers access current quickly.

The challenge of translating the huge amount genomic and biochemical data into new drugs is a costly challenging task. Historically, there has been comparatively little focus on linking chemical worlds. To address this need, we have developed ChEMBL, an online resource small-molecule SAR (structure–activity relationship) data, which can be used to support biology, lead discovery target selection in drug discovery. database contains abstracted structures, properties biological activities for...
