Fragment-based screens test multiple low-molecular weight molecules for binding to a target. Fragments often bind with low affinities but typically have better ligand efficiencies (DeltaG(bind)/heavy atom count) than traditional screening hits. This efficiency, combined with accompanying atomic-resolution structures, has made
[reaction: see text] A new protocol for the palladium-catalyzed, copper-mediated coupling of aryl and alkenyl iodides with boronic acids is described. As an alternative to the well-known and widely used Suzuki cross-coupling, this reaction occurs in the absence of a
A stereocontrolled synthesis of α-amino-α'-alkoxy ketones is described. This pH-neutral copper(I) thiophene-2-carboxylate (CuTC)-catalyzed cross-coupling of amino acid thiol esters and chiral nonracemic α-alkoxyalkylstannanes gives α-amino-α'-alkoxy ketones in good to excellent yields with complete retention of configuration at the α-amino- and
Further SAR studies on the thiophene-2-carboxylic acids are reported. These studies led to the identification of a series of tertiary amides that show inhibition of both HCV NS5B polymerase in vitro and HCV subgenomic RNA replication in Huh-7 cells. Structural

Herein, we describe our attempts to systematically prepare a series of oligo(2-thienyl)-substituted pyridine derivatives. The crucial starting material, a β-alkoxy-β-ketoenamide, is easily available on a large scale by the reaction of lithiated methoxyallene with thiophene-2-carbonitrile and thiophene-2-carboxylic acid. This three-component
