Atropisomerism in drug candidates can create synthetic and regulatory challenges. Molecules that exist as stable atropisomers can be acceptable for development but can still be difficult to synthesize in pure form. With the withdrawal of lesinurad, Amgen’s sotorasib is the only remaining fully-synthetic drug marketed as a stable atropisomer.

Now, modern catalytic methods have greatly expanded access to molecules exhibiting atropisomerism, and many interesting drug candidates that exist as stable atropisomers are in development.

In this article, the team at Sinocompound highlights examples of development candidates that exist as stable atropisomers, synthetic routes used to access them, and a particularly interesting kilo-scale synthesis of a Ph. III candidate using asymmetric catalysis.
