The availability of diverse and high-quality compound libraries is critical for identifying lead compounds with desired pharmacological properties. Traditionally, screening large compound libraries against biological targets has been a labor-intensive and time-consuming process. However, the field of compound library design has undergone significant changes with advances in computational tools and methods, enabling researchers to optimize the selection and prioritization of compounds in screening experiments.

Introduction of Compound Library Design
Compound library design involves the strategic selection and generation of diverse chemical compounds that have the potential to interact with specific biological targets, such as proteins or enzymes involved in disease pathways. By leveraging computational algorithms, machine learning techniques, and structural bioinformatics tools, researchers can design compound libraries that maximize coverage of chemical space, enhance structural diversity, and improve the likelihood of identifying potent and selective drug candidates.
