A fragment screening approach designed to target specifically the S-adenosyl-l-methionine pocket of catecholO-methyltransferase allowed the identification of structurally related fragments of high ligand efficiency and with activity on the described orthogonal assays. By use of a reliable enzymatic assay together with X-ray crystallography as guidance, a series of fragment modifications revealed an
