The most efficient diversity generating approaches to heterocycles are combinations of a multicomponent (MCR) with a cyclization reaction, for example, by Ugi-deprotection-cylization (UDC) protocols. If the desired post-Ugi reaction requires more than one deprotection, for example of two initially protected Ugi-reactive groups, or if it requires additional activation, for example, by an Ugi-activation-cyclization (UAC), either the isolation of intermediates or a sequential process or both become necessary. A recently introduced convertible isonitrile reagent allows a mild and chemoselective in situ post-Ugi activation of the isonitrile-born carboxylate with simultaneous deprotection of the nucleophilic amine, that is, liberation and activation of two Ugi-reactive groups, if desired also under subsequent lactam formation. This is exemplified by the synthesis of peptide-peptoid diketopiperazines.
