N2 - A novel enantioselective approach to the synthesis of a compound collection inspired by natural pyrrolizidine alkaloids was developed, employing an enantioselectively catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition as the key step. The cycloadducts were obtained with excellent enantio- and diastereoselectivity. Biological evaluation of the resulting compound collection revealed that the compound class has multiple bioactivities, including activity against Plasmodium falciparum 3D7 and inhibition of Hedgehog signaling.
