An efficient strategy for the synthesis of complex small molecules from simple building blocks is presented. Key steps of the strategy include tandem Petasis and Diels-Alder reactions, and divergent complexity-generating cyclization cascades from a key dialdehyde intermediate. The methodology is validated through the synthesis of a representative compound set, which has been used in the production of 1617 molecules for the European Lead Factory.

Catalytic cross-coupling by transition metals has revolutionized the formation of C-C bonds in organic synthesis. However, the challenge of forming multiple alkyl-alkyl bonds in crowded environments remains largely unresolved. Here, we report the regioselective functionalization of olefins with sp-hybridized organohalides and organozinc reagents using a simple (terpyridine)iron catalyst.

DNA encoded library (DEL) synthesis represents a convenient means to produce, annotate and store large collections of compounds in a small volume. While DELs are well suited for drug discovery campaigns, the chemistry used in their production must be compatible with the DNA tag, which can limit compound class accessibility. As a result, most DELs are heavily populated with peptidomimetic and sp -rich molecules.

Synthesis and anticholinesterase activity of 18 previously unpublished indole- and tryptophan-derived compounds are disclosed. These sp3-rich compounds containing an indole structural unit exhibit selective submicromolar inhibition of human butyrylcholinesterase (hBChE). The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by 1H and 13C NMR, IR spectroscopy, and high-resolution mass spectrometry.

Here we report the successful construction of a novel, stereochemically diverse DNA-Encoded Chemical Library (DECL) by utilizing 24 enantiomerically pure trifunctional 2, 6- di-substituted piperazines as central cores. We introduce the concept of positional diversity by placing the DNA attachment at either of two possible sites on the piperazine scaffold. Using a wide range of building blocks, a diverse library of 77 million compounds was produced.
