In this article, we highlight the importance of p K a values in medicinal chemistry and drug discovery and provide a reference poster of p K a values of common amines’ conjugate bases. Since amines are often a part of marketed drugs, knowledge of their p K a s can provide guidance in the selection of basic moieties to match the desired [...]
With increasingly tight timelines between bench and clinic, considering formulation strategies early on can give your program a competitive edge. This succinct formulations guide provides specific clinically-used examples of common formulations, and can help you select a formulation strategy most likely to succeed based on the properties of your compound.
This article introduces the Topliss tree and Topliss schemes for analog synthesis, illustrates when they might be useful, and provides easy-to-use posters or "cheat sheets" of the original schemes. By Christian Kuttruff Why are the Topliss Tree and Topliss Schemes Useful? Imagine you’re on a new project that has just conducted a chemical [...]
This article contains a pharmacokinetics reference table ("PK cheat sheet") with common cross-species physiological parameters relevant to PK, including animal size, liver blood flow, kidney blood flow, and body volumes. When interpreting compound pharmacokinetic (PK) data, it's helpful to have reference values to compare experimental data to [...]
There are catalysis geniuses (looking at you, process chemists!) and then there are those of us just looking to put compounds in vials. Here are the simplest conditions that'll get you what you want 90% of the time. Beyond that you'll need to ask a guru like Nick White or Malcolm Huestis. Hope this table helps.
