What are the advantages and disadvantages of conformation restriction of drug molecules?

Its activity will increase as there is a greater chance that the drug molecules will be of the right conformation. Its selectivity will also increase as there is less chance that the drug molecules will be of the wrong conformation. However, drug molecules with restricted conformation may take a longer time to synthesise as they tend to be more complex in structure.


Do molecules tend to move into area where there are more molecules?

Molecules tend to move into areas where there are less molecules. This is called diffusion and can happen with or without energy.

What kind of molecules are water fearing?

Water-fearing molecules are called hydrophobic molecules. They tend to be non-polar and do not interact well with water due to their lack of charge or polarity. As a result, hydrophobic molecules tend to cluster together to minimize contact with water molecules.
