Drug Discovery Assisted by Kinetic Target Guided Synthesis

Abstract

One of the modern medicinal chemistry methods is kinetic target-guided synthesis, where fragment molecules are interacted with a target protein and those in close proximity on the protein spontaneously cross-link by forming a covalent bond. The reactions, which is applicable to the kinetic target-guided synthesis proceed in water and are required no additional reagent. Here, several examples of kinetic target-guided synthesis are described.
