  • Patent number: 8624032
    Abstract: A method for producing libraries of structurally and stereochemically diverse molecules that can be screened for biological or chemical activity. A library of 91 heterocyclic compounds composed of 16 distinct scaffolds was synthesized through a sequence of phosphine-catalyzed ring-forming reactions, Tebbe reactions, Diels-Alder reactions, and, in some cases, hydrolysis to illustrate the methods. Three compounds inhibiting migration of human breast cancer cells are identified from the library.
