A "build/couple/pair" pathway for the systematic synthesis of structurally diverse small molecules is presented. The Petasis 3-component reaction was used to synthesize anti-amino alcohols displaying pairwise reactive combinations of alkene moieties. Upon treatment with a ruthenium alkylidene-catalyst, these dienes selectively underwent ring-closing metathesis reactions to form 5- and 7-membered heterocycles and cyclic aminals via a tandem isomerization/N-alkyliminium cyclization sequence.

A high-yielding, stereoselective and extraordinarily complexity-generating Petasis 3-component/intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction has been developed. In combination with ROM-RCM, rapid access to complex sp-rich heterocyclic scaffolds amenable to subsequent functionalization and library synthesis is provided.

A build/couple/pair strategy for the synthesis of complex and densely functionalized small molecules is presented. The strategy relies on synthetically tractable building blocks (build), that is, diversely substituted hydrazides, α-hydroxy aldehydes, and boronic acids, which undergo Petasis 3-component reactions (couple) to afford densely functionalized anti-hydrazido alcohols. The resulting scaffolds can subsequently be converted via chemoselective cyclization reactions (pair), including intramolecular Diels-Alder or Ru-alkylidene catalyzed ring-closing metathesis, into sets of structurally diverse heterocycles in good yields in only 3-4 steps.

An application of readily available hydrazides in the Petasis 3-component coupling reaction is presented. An investigation of the substrate scope was performed to establish a general, synthetically useful protocol for the formation of hydrazido alcohols, which were selectively converted to oxazolidinone and oxadiazolone ring systems through triphosgene-mediated cyclization reactions.
