Targeting RNAs using small molecules is an emerging field of medicinal chemistry and holds promise for the discovery of efficient tools for chemical biology. MicroRNAs are particularly interesting targets since they are involved in a number of pathologies such as cancers. Indeed, overexpressed microRNAs in cancer are oncogenic and various series of inhibitors of microRNAsbiogenesis have been developed

biological evaluation of new small‐molecule drugs that targetoncogenic miRNAs production. In particular, we chose to target two miRNAs (i.e., miRNA‐372 and ‐373) implicated in various types of cancer, such as gastric cancer. Their precursors (pre‐miRNAs) are overexpressed in cancer cells and lead to mature miRNAs after cleavage of their stem‐loop structure by the enzyme Dicer in the cytoplasm. Some of
