Natural products are a major source of biological molecules. The 3‐methylfuran scaffold is found in a variety of plant secondary metabolite chemical elicitors that confer host‐plant resistance against insect pests. Herein, the diversity‐oriented synthesis of a natural‐product‐like library is reported, in which the 3‐methylfuran core is fused in an angular attachment to six common natural product scaffolds—coumarin, chalcone, flavone, flavonol, isoflavone and isoquinolinone. The structural diversity of this library is assessed computationally using cheminformatic analysis. Phenotypic high‐throughput screening of β‐glucuronidase activity uncovers several hits. Further in vivo screening confirms that these hits can induce resistance in rice to nymphs of the brown planthopper  Nilaparvata lugens . This work validates the combination of diversity‐oriented synthesis and high‐throughput screening of β‐glucuronidase activity as a strategy for discovering new chemical elicitors.
