摘要

Four-membered rings are witnessing significant prominence in medicinal chemistry discovery programs. For example, a search of the chemical databases shows exponential increase in their representation, which is found principally in the patent literature as a consequence of the stakeholders involved. The various reports that have documented the benefits accompanying their use in discovery candidates are driving the increased visibility. The range of advantages includes structural novelty along with improved physicochemical and pharmaco-kinetic properties. This has led the scientific community to redesign, improve, or invent strategies for their synthesis, and tactics enabling their incorporation into complex structures. A particular class of structures that is of interest to discovery chemists at present is the spirocyclic modules incorporating a four-membered ring. The advantages of these in particular are clear, as they constitute poorly explored regions of chemical space. Their use affords opportunities for the design of new classes of lead candidates that do not impinge on, infringe, or overlap with the dense regions of intellectual property space that have been intensively populated over the last 5 decades. The crowded structural space that has been mined in the context of work emanating from medicinal chemistry programs relies on a widely used portfolio of fragments, including heterocycles, hetarenes, and arenes. It has been pointed out that the impressive advances of modern medicinal chemistry in the last few decades have been fueled by parallel developments in synthetic chemistry and proteomics, in which metal-mediated coupling reactions hand-in-hand with molecular docking have driven the science. However, with the generalization of screening libraries and database tools, pharmaceutical scientists currently face the challenge of identifying and developing new molecules that may include the same toolbox as their colleagues and competitors, thereby limiting the opportunities for creating truly new entities. The identification of novel building blocks, such as spirocyclic modules, opens new avenues, especially when the search for new structures is intimately coupled to assessment of the attendant molecular properties. The new chemical space generated opens new vistas by offering an expanded toolbox to improve, alter, and modulate physicochemical properties, such as the lipophilicity, the acidity or basicity of embedded groups, aqueous solubility, and stability against metabolic degradation.
