The new computer-aided synthesis design tool ICSYNTH has been evaluated by comparing its performance in predicting new ideas for route design to that of historical brainstorm results on a series of commercial pharmaceutical targets, as well as literature data. Examples of its output as an idea generator are described, and the conclusion is that it adds appreciable value to the performance of the professional drug research and development chemist team.

Currently, ICSYNTH has assumed a place as a unique
predictive tool for route design in Chemical Development in AZ. While it
is finding valuable commercial application in our own and others’
hands, it remains a work in progress.

InfoChem’s ICSYNTH is a powerful
computer aided synthesis design tool that enables chemists to generate
synthetic pathways for a target molecule. The benefit is that ICSYNTH
can facilitate innovation by stimulating ideas for alternative or novel
synthetic routes that otherwise may not be considered. This may lead to
improved route design, for example shorter pathways or more economical
reaction modifications.
After inputting the target, users can select different synthetic strategies depending on requirements. ICSYNTH
then automatically generates a multistep interactive synthesis tree –
each node on the tree representing a precursor. The advantages are that
the suggested reactions are based on, and linked to, published reactions
(or their analogs) and the precursor availability is automatically
checked in commercial catalogs. Users can modify the synthesis tree or
select precursors for further analysis.
At the heart of ICSYNTH is an
algorithmic chemical knowledge base of transform libraries that are
automatically generated from reaction databases. The number of transform
libraries is only limited by the availability of validated reaction
databases.
In addition to retro synthesis design, ICSYNTH has a forward reaction prediction module that offers reactivity mapping for the target molecule. Version 2.0 of ICSYNTH was launched in April 2014. The completely re-designed user interface (based on JavaScript) and major improvements in the algorithm responsible of the precursor search are the main enhancements of Version 2.0. In addition the forward reaction prediction algorithm has been optimized. Click here to see a complete version history.
