The potency of the drug decreases with branching. This is probably due to decreased pharmacokinetics and decreased pharmacodynamics.

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.

How does molecular size affect the drug?

Molecular size can influence how a drug is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted in the body. Smaller molecules may be more easily absorbed but can have a shorter duration of action, while larger molecules may have slower absorption but longer-lasting effects. Additionally, molecular size can impact the drug's ability to cross cell membranes and interact with target molecules.
