The natural product fumagillol has been exploited as a stereochemically rich scaffold for the synthesis of a structurally unique, chemically diverse library with chemotypes distinctly different from the parent structure. Thus, fumagillol has been remodelled into a diverse array of isoindoles, isoquinolines, furans, mopholinones and benzoxazepines.
