Abstract
Synthetic routes towards highly substituted eight membered ring heterocycles fused to aryl rings such as the dibenzo[b,f]azocine system are still lacking. Herein, we present a convenient convergent synthetic route towards this heterocyclic class of compounds with possible variations at positions 4, 7, and 11. One member of a library of dibenzo[b,f]azocines with different substituents at position 11 was identified to inhibit protein kinase A activity (IC50 = 122 μM) but not protein kinase C.
