Fluorine Fragment Library

As a powerful tool used in fragment-based lead discovery, fragment screening based on ¹⁹F NMR ligands serves as a very effective method for rapid and sensitive detection of hits. Compare to traditional ¹H NMR, ¹⁹F NMR screening method is a faster and more accurate technique. Moreover, similar hit rates can be obtained by applying both fluorine-labeled fragments library and non-fluorinated fragments library. Scientists have established a library of fluorine fragments to target fluorine-philic sites in proteins. BOC Sciences has developed the Fluorine Fragment Library with the use of fluorine nuclei as a detection tool.

Advantages of Fluorine Fragment Library

• Explore a broader chemical space
• Provide valuable information and early SAR
• Fast and accurate

Fluorine Fragment Library Characteristics

At BOC Sciences, our novel ¹⁹F NMR Fluorine-containing Fragment Library contains more than 6,500 fragments, which is provided as a reliable source of high-quality fragments. We cooperate with leading experts in the field of FBDD to design and supply top-level fragment libraries, aiming to meet different requirement of each client.

Features of Fluorine Fragment Library

• Compounds containing any atom different to O, N, C, H, Br, I, Cl, F, S, or P are removed
• All the fragment molecules contain at least one aliphatic or aromatic ring
• We carefully eliminate the compounds with reactive functional groups bearing the risk of covalent binding to the target protein
• Compounds with functionalities that can cause undesirable effects such as: Cancerogenic, Toxicity, ADME problems, False positives are removed
• Mixtures of diastereomers, and molecules that tend to aggregate are also not included in our library
• The fragment selection emphasizes high structural quality, easy performance and interpretation of ¹⁹F NMR screening results
• Very simple/trivial core with overused chemistry
• All the compounds possess more than two stereocenters which can present their rotators
• We can create a Diversity Screening Set containing structurally-diverse fluorinated fragments to provide the most-promising drug-like screening compounds
• A wide range of chemical structure dissimilarity and are compliant with in-house PAINS structural filters
• Fluorine Fragment Library for FBDD, mainly guided by the well-known Rule of Three
• No metals or reactive compounds, no unwanted chemical types and salts
• All compounds in this library have at least one mono fluoro or mono trifluoromethyl group
• ¹⁹F NMR chemical shifts are provided for all compounds
• All compounds can be used for cherry-picking

What We Deliver

• Delivered within 2 weeks in any customer-preferred format
• Powders, dry films or DMSO solutions formatted in vials, 96 or 384-well plates
• All compounds with a minimum purity of 90% assessed by ¹H NMR
• Analytical data is offered
