Medchem Molecular Filtering FAQs

Question 1

What medicinal chemistry rules are included?

Accepted Answer

The skill includes several established standards such as Lipinski's Rule of Five, Veber's rules, Oprea, CNS-like rules, lead-like filters, and Reos rules.

Question 2

Does this support parallel processing for large libraries?

Accepted Answer

Yes, most filtering functions allow for parallelization using the n_jobs parameter, making it suitable for processing thousands of molecules efficiently.

Question 3

Can I filter by structural alerts?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it supports comprehensive structural alert sets including PAINS (Pan-Assay Interference Compounds), Novartis (NIBR) filters, and Eli Lilly demerit systems.

Question 4

Can I define custom filtering logic?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can use the Medchem Query Language for complex logic or the constraints module to set specific ranges for molecular weight, LogP, TPSA, and other properties.

Question 5

How do I calculate synthetic accessibility or complexity?

Accepted Answer

The skill includes the complexity module which provides metrics like Bertz, Whitlock, and Barone complexity scores to estimate molecular synthetic difficulty.
