Abstract
Molecules containing bridged bicyclic systems, such as the (7-hetero)bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ring system, are interesting synthetic targets because these systems are present in many molecules with biologically relevant activity. Common precursors for these sytems are the (7-hetero)nobornadienes. This review covers the different approaches used in the last ten years for the synthesis of (7-hetero)norbornadienes through Diels-Alder (D-A) cycloaddition between cyclic dienes and alkynes. The review also shows the synthetic applications of these [2.2.1]bicyclic systems as intermediates in the preparation of other relevant molecules.
Keywords: Alkyne dienophile, 7-azanorbornadiene, N-Boc-pyrrole, cyclopentadiene, furan, norbornadiene, 7-oxanorbornadiene, Diels-Alder cycloaddition.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
