What is GLARE?
GLARE is a free software that facilitates and improves the design
of chemical combinatorial libraries. This program reduces or eliminates
the time a combinatorial chemist spends examining reagents which a priori
cannot be part of a 'good library'. The principal objective of the
algorithm behind GLARE is
to provide a combinatorial set of virtual products that satisfies
user defined filtering rules. Another objective is to maximize the
number of reagents to
give the synthetic chemist as many choices as possible and to enable
subsequent filtering steps. GLARE
can optimize the combinatorial product set based on multi-criterion
(multi objectives optimization) such as the total molecular weight,
the calculated logP, the polar surface area, the number of h-bond
acceptors and donors, etc.

News:
New Release: 1.0b
Major highlights:
- First release of a public domain GLARE
- Fast and effective filtering of reagents based on product properties (web
enabled)
- Large reagent lists of thousands of compounds can be optimized
- User defined multicriterion optimization (e.g. Lipinski rule of 5)
- Lincensing under the very flexible OSI New BSD License
- Command line interface
- Only the properties of the reagents need to be pre-calculated (with your favorite software)
- NOTE: The package is still in a beta state
