A new generation of saturated benzene mimetics, 2-oxabicyclo2.1.1hexanes, was developed. These compounds were designed as analogues of bicyclo1.1.1pentane with an improved water solubility. Crystallographic analysis of 2-oxabicyclo2.1.1hexanes revealed that they occupy a novel chemical space, but, at the same time, resemble the motif of meta-disubstituted benzenes.
