Fluorinated CRBN Ligands for Next-Generation PROTACs

What if one tiny fluorine atom could supercharge your PROTAC? ⚛️

What if one tiny fluorine atom could supercharge your PROTAC? ⚛️

Fluorinated CRBN ligands are a powerful medicinal chemistry trick for next-gen degraders:
• Tune binding affinity
• Boost metabolic stability & permeability
• Improve ternary complex formation
• Sharpen neosubstrate selectivity

Clinically validated:
🔹 ARV-766 (Phase II AR-PROTAC)
🔹 CFT-1946 (Phase I BRAF-PROTAC)
BMS-986449 shows the power: 96% IKZF2 degradation, with minimal off-target effects.

Our ready-to-use fluorinated CRBN building blocks cut synthetic bottlenecks. Your team can focus on linker & warhead optimization, not fragment synthesis.
What’s your biggest PROTAC synthetic challenge?
