Discovery Chemistry

SAR studies: Structure activity relationship studies are performed with a given scaffold for a specific assay system

Synthesis of analogues: Analogues will be synthesized for a specific scaffold by using drug-like appendages

Library design and synthesis: A library of analogues is designed and synthesized for a given scaffold

Prodrugs design: Projects are undertaken to pursue designing prodrugs for a drug molecule to overcome any issues associated with the drug such as solubility, intestinal penetration, bioavailabilty etc.

Salt selection: A systematic screening for salts is undertaken for a given drug molecule. The properties of the salt such as solubility, physicochemical properties etc. are assessed
