Finding the perfect spot for fluorine: improving potency up to 40-fold during a rational fluorine scan of a Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase (BTK) inhibitor scaffold.

Abstract:

:A rational fluorine scan based on co-crystal structures was explored to increase the potency of a series of selective BTK inhibitors. While fluorine substitution on a saturated bicyclic ring system yields no apparent benefit, the same operation on an unsaturated bicyclic ring can increase HWB activity by up to 40-fold. Comparison of co-crystal structures of parent molecules and fluorinated counterparts revealed the importance of placing fluorine at the optimal position to achieve favorable interactions with protein side chains.
