Abstract
The replacement of the aromatic ring in bioactive compounds with saturated bioisosteres has become a popular tactic to obtain novel structures with improved physicochemical profiles. In this communication, we describe an efficient synthesis of 3,5-methanobenzo[b]azepine analogs and suggest them as isosteres of quinolones. Quinolones are heteroaromatic, flat rings and considered as privileged scaffolds. An isosteric version of this scaffold with more 3D character would offer new options to expand their use.
