Abstract

DNA-encoded libraries (DEL)-based discovery platforms have re cently been widely adopted in the pharmaceutical industry, mainl due to their powerful diversity and incredible number of mole cules. In the two decades since their disclosure, great strides hav been made to expand the toolbox of reaction modes that are com patible with the idiosyncratic aqueous, dilute, and DNA-sensitiv parameters of this system. However, construction of highly impor tant C(sp3)−C(sp3) linkages on DNA through cross-coupling remain unexplored. In this article, we describe a systematic approach t translating standard organic reactions to a DEL setting throug the tactical combination of kinetic analysis and empirical screenin with information captured from data mining. To exemplify thi model, implementation of the Giese addition to forge high valu C–C bonds on DNA was studied, which represents a radical-base synthesis in DEL.
