Aminothiaindanone as an Accessible Scaffold for a Three-Point Chemical Diversity

Aminothiaindanone heterocycle appears to be a scaffold of interest in medicinal chemistry. To increase the chemical diversity in this series, the introduction of three-point chemical diversity on the cyclopenta[b]thiophen-4-one scaffold was explored. About thirty newly functionalized thiophene-containing bicycles were obtained using various chemical reactions, paving the way for novel possibilities in medicinal chemistry projects.
