Reaction optimization studies identified room temperature as well as microwave-mediated procedures, providing moderate to good yields (57-88%) in the thiophenol-mediated epoxide opening and intramolecular aldol reaction. In addition, the isolation of a key intermediate and in situ NMR studies supported the mechanistic hypothesis. The bicyclic ring products occupy novel chemical space according to ChemGPS and Chemaxon chemical diversity and cheminformatics analyses. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd. date: 2010-07-31 date_type: published publication: Tetrahedron volume: 66 number: 31 pagerange: 5852 - 5862 refereed: TRUE issn: 0040-4020 id_number: 10.1016/j.tet.2010.04.112 pmcid: PMC2925319 pmid: 20798897 citation: Hammill, JT and Contreras-García, J and Virshup, AM and Beratan, DN and Yang, W and Wipf, P (2010) Synthesis and chemical diversity analysis of bicyclo[3.3.1]non-3-en-2-ones.
