چکیده

Macrocyclic compounds represent a structural class with exceptional potential for biological activity; however, they have historically been underrepresented in screening collections and synthetic libraries. In this article we report the development of a highly step-efficient strategy for the diversity-oriented synthesis of complex macrocyclic architectures, using a modular approach based on the two-directional synthesis of bifunctional linear precursors and their subsequent combination in a two-directional macrocyclisation process. In this proof of principle study, the synthesis of 14 such compounds was achieved. Cheminformatic analysis of the compounds produced suggests that they reside in biologically relevant regions of chemical space and the compounds were screened for activity against two cancer cell lines.

Two-directional synthesis as a tool for diversity-oriented synthesis: Synthesis of alkaloid scaffolds

Two-directional synthesis represents an ideal strategy for the rapid elaboration of simple starting materials and their subsequent transformation into complex molecular architectures. As such, it is becoming recognised as an enabling technology for diversity-oriented synthesis. Herein, we provide a thorough account of our work combining two-directional synthesis with diversity-oriented synthesi...

A diversity-oriented synthesis strategy enabling the combinatorial-type variation of macrocyclic peptidomimetic scaffolds.

Macrocyclic peptidomimetics are associated with a broad range of biological activities. However, despite such potentially valuable properties, the macrocyclic peptidomimetic structural class is generally considered as being poorly explored within drug discovery. This has been attributed to the lack of general methods for producing collections of macrocyclic peptidomimetics with high levels of s...

Radical aryl migration enables diversity-oriented synthesis of structurally diverse medium/macro- or bridged-rings

Medium-sized and medium-bridged rings are attractive structural motifs in natural products and therapeutic agents. Due to the unfavourable entropic and/or enthalpic factors with these ring systems, their efficient construction remains a formidable challenge. To address this problem, we herein disclose a radical-based approach for diversity-oriented synthesis of various benzannulated carbon- and...
