Funded Activity Summary

Diene regenerative Diels-Alder reactions to access chemical scaffolds. This project aims to develop methods and strategies that allow rapid access to biologically active chemical scaffolds based on natural products. Natural products and their analogues are vital starting points for drug discovery as they provide unique chemical diversity. Without efficient methods for their production, it is not possible to exploit this diversity. This project will develop an efficient, modular strategy that will allow the preparation of a wide range of chemicals in a timely manner. Restoring access to potent biologically active materials is expected to generate chemical probes and lead to molecules that could have biomedical value.
