Comprehensive exploration of chemical space using trisubstituted carboranes.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: A total of 42 trisubstituted carboranes categorised into five scaffolds were systematically designed and synthesized by exploiting the different reactivities of the twelve vertices of o-, m-, and p-carboranes to cover all directions in chemical space. Significant inhibitors of hypoxia inducible factor transcriptional activitay were mainly observed among scaffold V compounds (e.g., Vi-m, and Vo), whereas anti-rabies virus activity was observed among scaffold V (Va-h), scaffold II (IIb-g), and scaffold IV (IVb) compounds. The pharmacophore model predicted from compounds with scaffold V, which exhibited significant anti-rabies virus activity, agreed well with compounds IIb-g with scaffold II and compound IVb with scaffold IV. Normalized principal moment of inertia analysis indicated that carboranes with scaffolds I-V cover all regions in the chemical space. Furthermore, the first compounds shown to stimulate the proliferation of the rabies virus were found among scaffold V carboranes.
