Abstract

The 7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptene ring system is a common structural motif in many pharmacologically interesting molecules. We recognized the potential to employ this highly oxygenated and conformationally-restricted scaffold in diversity-oriented synthesis to generate a library of non-chiral but topologically complex compounds. Herein, we report the synthesis and biological evaluation of two 96-member tricyclic libraries containing the oxabicyclo[2.2.1]heptene framework using acetal formation as the key step.
