The combination of laboratory automation and data-rich experimentation has led to significant improvements in experimental efficiency, reproducibility, throughput compared conventional methods. These transformative technologies have proven particularly valuable drug substance process characterization studies, where the ability rapidly generate volumes reaction data maximize understanding for ever-increasing regulatory expectations is paramount importance. highly dense sets offer potential...
We report the practical synthesis of a key fragment islatravir (MK-8591), novel nucleoside reverse transcriptase translocation inhibitor (NRTTI) currently under investigation for treatment and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) against HIV infection. The fragment, unnatural nucleobase 2-fluoroadenine, is incorporated into MK-8591 via biocatalytic aldol-glycosylation cascade, which imposes stringent requirements its isolation. Presented herein development work leading to practical, scalable...
