About This Webinar

For decades, most drug scaffolds have been made from flat, two-dimensional structures, but biological targets inside the body are three-dimensional and complex, which limits how well flat scaffolds can do their job. Spiro[2.3]hexanes are a promising class of compact, three-dimensional scaffolds for drug development. However, they've been largely avoided because they're difficult to synthesize and are often poorly characterized biologically.

In this webinar, our panel will walk through a flexible new synthesis method used to produce these scaffolds. We'll then show how AI-driven predictive analytics in CAS BioFinder® were used to quickly identify the most promising candidates before committing to expensive lab testing. The result is a practical, reproducible workflow that demonstrates how AI and synthetic chemistry can work together to accelerate early-stage drug discovery.

About This Webinar

CAS Formulations delivers the largest consolidated collection of formulation data, covering millions of compositions from patents, journals, and product inserts in key domains such as pharmaceuticals, agricultural science, food science, and cosmetics. In this session, we will demonstrate how accurately identified ingredients, their functions, and detailed substance information, linked to CAS REGISTRY and CAplus, support high-quality IP analysis.

What You Will Learn

• How to access formulation details, including active compounds, excipients, and ingredient functions
• How location information enables users to pinpoint where formulations appear in source publications
• How to focus specifically on enabled formulations
• How to identify formulations that include indicated amounts for relevant ingredients
• How integration with CAS REGISTRY and CAplus strengthens formulation-focused IP workflows
