Medicinal Chemistry

QED

0.756

A measure of drug-likeness based on the concept of desirability

Attractive: > 0.67; unattractive: 0.49–0.67; too complex: < 0.34

SAscore

2.671

Synthetic accessibility score is designed to estimate ease of synthesis of drug-like molecules

SAscore ≥ 6, difficult to synthesize; SAscore < 6, easy to synthesize

Fsp3

0.5

The number of sp3 hybridized carbons / total carbon count, correlating with melting point and solubility

Fsp3 ≥ 0.42 is considered a suitable value

MCE-18

24.0

MCE-18 stands for medicinal chemistry evolution

MCE-18 ≥ 45 is considered a suitable value

NPscore

-1.268

Natural product-likeness score

This score is typically in the range from − 5 to 5. The higher the score is, the higher the probability is that the molecule is a NP

Lipinski Rule

Accepted

MW ≤ 500; logP ≤ 5; Hacc ≤ 10; Hdon ≤ 5

If two properties are out of range, a poor absorption or permeability is possible, one is acceptable

Pfizer Rule

Rejected

logP > 3; TPSA < 75

Compounds with a high log P (> 3) and low TPSA (< 75) are likely to be toxic

GSK Rule

Rejected

MW ≤ 400; logP ≤ 4

Compounds satisfying the GSK rule may have a more favorable ADMET profile

Golden Triangle

Accepted

200 ≤ MW ≤ 50; -2 ≤ logD ≤ 5

Compounds satisfying the Golden Triangle rule may have a more favorable ADMET profile
