Investigation of the Click-Chemical Space for Drug Design Using ZINClick

This chapter provides a brief overview of the applications of ZINClick virtual library. In the last years, we have investigated the click-chemical space covered by molecules containing the triazole ring and generated a database of 1,2,3-triazoles called ZINClick, starting from literature reported alkynes and azides synthesizable in no more than three synthetic steps from commercially available products. This combinatorial database contains millions of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles that are easily synthesizable. The library is regularly updated and can be freely downloaded from http://www.ZINClick.org. This virtual library is a good starting point to explore a new portion of chemical space.
