A wealth of unique enantiopure polycyclic alkaloid-like scaffolds can be prepared on a multigram scale in only a few steps from a common, commercially available intermediate. The attached nitromethyl group can then be used to construct highly diverse functionalized libraries suitable for screening against biological targets of interest. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd.
