coreDesign®

A design tool for scaffold hops.

CoreDesign® applies ring and linker scaffold changes found by matched molecular pair analysis to generate new compound suggestions (e.g. scaffold-hops).

A module within the MCPairs platform.

The Challenge

Standard Trial-and-Error Slows Molecular Core Optimisation

CoreDesign® suggests scaffold changes based on core transformations.

How CoreDesign® Works

Scaffold Hop in four steps

Input Compound

Submit or draw a compound and highlight the parts of the molecule to change.

Submit Query

CoreDesign® searches over 1.3 million transformations, and generates suggestions with modified cores.

Review Literature

Review supporting literature for suggested scaffold hops.

Export Results

Export promising compounds and continue your workflow in MCPairs.
