In a successful example of lead optimization by computer modeling prediction , computational technology was used to optimize a lead inhibitor (TL‐3) of the SARS‐CoV 3CL protease. A novel C 2 ‐symmetric diol ( 1 ) was then designed and synthesized, and displayed higher affinity than the original lead compound by one order of magnitude in its inhibition constant (0.6→0.073 μ M ). We believe that this approach has provided a platform for further lead optimization.
