PAINS Library
Special diverse selection of frequent hitters
320 compounds
Pan-Assay Interference Compounds (PAINS) are the most recognized filters among medicinal chemists. Since first publication in 2010 by John Bell these filters have become industry standard in Drug Discovery. While carefully removing all PAINS-related compounds from Enamine libraries we realized that these compounds can be very useful in HTS assay set-up & validation.
Special diversity set of PAINS available for prompt delivery in various plated formats including the most popular listed below:

Library design
The design is based on substructural motifs of known PAINS compounds. We used originally reported PAINS filters to identify a set of 75k+ in-stock compounds. This set was clustered using fingerprint-based approach and Tanimoto similarity distance calculations. The most populated clusters with at least 5 compounds were extracted and one representative example was selected from each cluster resulting in a library of 320 compounds. The library of most diverse 320 PAINS is available in plate format for your convenience. Examples are given below.
Key features
- Represents the most common false positives
- Substructure & scaffold diversity
- All compounds suitable for storage as DMSO solutions
