LifeCheMyriads

The Novelty-Focused Compound Catalog

Introducing LifeCheMyriads by Life Chemicals. This Chemical Space is an ultra-large, medicinal chemistry-driven collection of tangible compounds designed to support efficient hit discovery and lead expansion.
LifeCheMyriads was conceived with a strong focus on synthetic feasibility and structural diversity. Continuously expanded and maintained by Life Chemicals’ experienced medicinal chemists, the Chemical Space delivers project-relevant virtual hits that can be rapidly translated into real molecules. This ensures access to up-to-date chemistry and reliable synthetic execution, combined with a high degree of novelty and diversity.

Unique Scaffolds

The combination of more than 210 validated in-house reaction protocols and over 20,000 carefully selected building blocks already yields an impressive 53 billion synthetically feasible, medicinal chemistry-relevant virtual compounds in its first iteration.

LifeCheMyriads stands out in particular for its coverage of previously underrepresented regions of medicinally relevant chemical space. Its more than 340 million unique molecular scaffolds enable discovery beyond the structural biases of existing compound databases.

The figure shows a selection of highly populated scaffolds that facilitate particularly rapid follow-up and catalog-based SAR exploration. Examples include CHEMBL3649095 (an OX1R/OX2R antagonist), CHEMBL1814325 (a CB1R antagonist), and CHEMBL3890471 (an NK3R antagonist).

Services beyond the Catalog

The teams at Life Chemicals bring decades of medicinal chemistry expertise. As a result, active compounds do not necessarily need to be pursued entirely in-house; follow-up activities can also be carried out with Life Chemicals as a CRO, including cheminformatics, hit resupply, and scale-up.
All retrieved compounds are supported by end-to-end scientific expertise, enabling fast and efficient virtual-to-synthesis workflows throughout early drug discovery.

Feel free to reach out: the Life Chemicals team is available to support project planning, accommodate special requirements, and explore opportunities for collaboration.
