The development of new drugs is becoming notably harder each decade. To overcome the present pitfalls in the drug development pipeline, such as those related to potency, selectivity, or absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion and toxicity properties, medicinal chemistry strategies need to be in continuous evolution and need to become even more multidisciplinary. In this review, we present how structure-based, ligand-based, and fragment-based drug design (SBDD, LBDD, and FBDD, respectively) and their respective techniques were used for the design and optimization of successful cases of New Molecular Entities (NMEs) approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

This research article presents a thorough and all-encompassing examination of predictive models utilized in the estimation of viscosity for ionic liquid solutions. The study focuses on crucial input parameters, namely the type of cation, the type of anion, the temperature (measured in Kelvin), and the concentration of the ionic liquid (expressed in mol%). This study assesses three influential machine learning algorithms that are based on the Decision Tree methodology.

In this study, we present the synthesis of a silver nanocomposite by utilizing a β-cyclodextrin (βCD) polymer anchored onto the surface of magnetic g-CN (referred to as g-CN-FeO/βCD-Ag). The structure and composition of the g-CN-FeO/βCD-Ag nanocomposite were thoroughly characterized using various techniques, including FT-IR, FE-SEM-EDS, TEM, TGA, XRD, ICP, and VSM. This catalytic system exhibited excellent selectivity in reducing nitro groups, even in the presence of other reactive functional groups, resulting in high yields ranging from 85 to 98%.

Triphala is a traditional Ayurvedic herbal formulation composed of three fruits: amla (Phyllanthus emblica), bibhitaki (Terminalia bellerica), and haritaki (Terminalia chebula). Triphala is a potent Ayurvedic remedy that promotes digestion, detoxification, and overall wellness, while also providing antioxidant benefits through its trio of nutrient-rich fruits. In order to elucidate the individual contributions of the three ingredients of Triphala from molecular perspective, the individual ingredients were used for the untargeted LCMS/MS analysis.

Over 80% of biologic drugs, and 90% of vaccines, require temperature-controlled conditions throughout the supply chain to minimize thermal inactivation and contamination. This cold chain is costly, requires stringent oversight, and is impractical in remote environments. Here, we report chemical dispersants that non-covalently solvate proteins within fluorous liquids to alter their thermodynamic equilibrium and reduce conformational flexibility.

Marine cyclopianes are a family of diterpenoid with novel carbon skeleton and diverse biological activities. Herein, we report our synthetic and chemical proteomics studies of cyclopiane diterpenes which culminate in the asymmetric total synthesis of conidiogenones C, K and 12β-hydroxy conidiogenone C, and identification of Immunity-related GTPase family M protein 1 (IRGM1) as a cellular target. Our asymmetric synthesis commences from Wieland-Miescher ketone and features a sequential intramolecular Pauson-Khand reaction and gold-catalyzed Nazarov cyclization to rapidly construct the 6-5-5-5 tetracyclic skeleton.
