Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to the synthesis of compounds comprising heterocyclic rings.
- the invention provides novel bicyclic hydantoin derivative compounds as well as novel combinatorial libraries comprised of such compounds.
- the process of discovering new therapeutically active compounds for a given indication involves the screening of all compounds from available compound collections. From the compounds tested, one or more structures is selected as a promising lead. A large number of related analogs are then synthesized in order to develop a structure-activity relationship and select one or more optimal compounds. With traditional "one-at- a-time" synthesis and biological testing of analogs, this optimization process is long and labor intensive. Adding significant numbers of new structures to the compound collections used in the initial screening step of the discovery and optimization process cannot be accomplished with traditional "one-at-a-time" synthesis methods, except over a time frame of years or even decades.
- Hydantoin derivative compounds have been the subject of investigation in a number of different biological areas.
- hydantoin derivatives have been proposed or used as anticonvulsant , antibacterial, antidiabetic, antiarrhythmic, antifungal or herbicidal agents.
