Modern Strategies For Heterocycle Synthesis

Heterocycles feature widely in natural products, agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and dyes, and their synthesis is of great interest to synthetic chemists in both academia and industry. The contributions of recent applications of new methodologies in C–H activation, photoredox chemistry, cross-coupling strategies, borrowing hydrogen catalysis, multicomponent and solvent-free reactions, regio- and stereoselective syntheses, as well as other new, attractive approaches for the construction of heterocyclic scaffolds are of great interest. This Special Issue is dedicated to featuring the latest research that is ongoing in the field of heterocyclic synthesis. It is expected that most submissions will focus on five- and six-membered oxygen and nitrogen-containing heterocycles, but structures incorporating other rings/heteroatoms will also be considered. Original research (communications, full papers and reviews) that discusses innovative methodologies for assembling heterocycles with potential application in materials, catalysis and medicine are therefore welcome.

Heterocycles are present in the molecular architecture of a wide variety of natural products and compounds with significant biological potency. The numerous heterocycles are employed as significant intermediates in the fields of synthetic organic chemistry, pharmaceuticals, and organic synthesis. This book summarizes the synthesis of different heterocycles using various synthetic methods, including green methods, and applications of heterocycles in various fields.

Heterocycles A must-read handbook on heterocycle chemistry with a focus on sustainability Heterocycles feature prominently in our daily life—they are essential for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and fine chemicals. More, numerous natural, bioactive products contain heterocyclic compounds. As a result, heterocyclic chemistry continues to be one of the most important areas of study in organic chemistry. Heterocycles provides an important reference on a wide range of topics relating to heterocyclic chemistry, with a heavy emphasis on sustainable methods and greener syntheses. The book describes state-of-the-art synthetic methods, such as photochemical reactions, dearomatization reactions, organocatalysis, transition metal catalysis, and biocatalysis. It also covers: Sustainable methods, like flow chemistry, mechanochemistry, and multicomponent synthesis Strategies for the synthesis of heterocyclic macrocycles and medium-sized rings Characterization of heterocyclic compounds Heterocycles is a useful reference for organic chemists, natural products chemists, catalytic chemists, and medicinal chemists in academia and industry.

This two-volume set presents exciting new developments in preparative heterocyclic chemistry with a special emphasis on the stereoselective synthesis of - or with the aid of - heterocycles. A wide range of modern methods and strategies for the construction and synthetic elaboration of versatile heterocycles is surveyed in depth by leading researchers in this field. Due to the high quality and up-to-date coverage of each chapter, this two-volume set provides a valuable overview of the different aspects discussed and will at the same time be highly inspiring for the expert synthetic organic chemist as well as the non-specialist reader.

A comprehensive overview of synthetic strategies for nonaromatic nitrogen heterocycles Nitrogen heterocycles are extremely widely distributed in nature, as well as in synthetic substances found in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials chemistry. With new structures and medicines that include these structures emerging yearly, and a vast new journal literature to describe them, anyone who wants to be effective in R&D needs to easily access a synthesis of the latest research. This state-of-the-art survey explores recent developments in the most widely used reactions, as well as completely new ones. Highlights the major modern synthetic methods known to obtain nonaromatic nitrogen heterocycles, and their practical applications Topics include enantioselective synthesis and catalysis, photocatalysis, biocatalysis, microwave-assisted synthesis, reactions of oximes and nitrones, and ionic liquids Discusses how to synthesize rings of specific sizes Covers sustainable synthetic approaches for obtaining salts Whether you are using nonaromatic nitrogen compounds as an academic researcher, a synthetic chemist in industry, or an advanced student, this book is an essential, up-to-date resource to support your work.

Keeping up with the advances in modern heterocyclic chemistry is essential for many of our colleagues in academia and industry. It is the aim of this series on "Stereoselective Heterocyclic Synthesis" to assist the chemical community in this respect by presenting a selection of exciting recent developments. As it was for the first two volumes (1997), the stereoselective synthesis of - or with the aid of - heterocycles is the common motif for all the chapters in this third volume. I am very glad that again leading researchers in this area have contrib- ed highly stimulating accounts with up-to-date coverage. "Stereoselective Heterocyclic Synthesis 111" features chapters on "Stereoselective Intramolecular J,3-Dipolar Cycloadditions" by I.N.N. Nambothiiri and A. Hassner giving an in depth survey of the generation and synthetic application of valuable 1,3-dipoles, "4-Acetoxy- and 4-Cyano-12-dioxanes in Synthesis" by C.J. Sinz and S.D. Rychnovsky presenting a comprehensive summary of the utility of the versatile title compounds in natural products synthesis, "The Synthetic Potential of Three-Membered Ring Aza-Heterocycles" by B. Zwanenburg and l? ten Holte highlighting the fascinating chemistry of aziridine and azirine carboxylic esters, and '(Synthesis of Medium-Sized Ring Lactams" by U. Nubbemeyer discussing a wide range of modern strategies for the stereoselective preparation of these important heterocycles

Presents a wide-ranging overview of essential topics and recent advances in MCR chemistry Heterocycles are a central component in natural product chemistry, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and material science. New synthetic methodologies integrating the sequencing of multicomponent reactions (MCRs) are today being used for the rapid synthesis of diversified heterocycles in just one step. Multicomponent Reactions towards Heterocycles presents an up-to-date summary MCR chemistry with a focus on the conjugation between modern synthetic methodologies and MCRs. Featuring contributions by leaders in the field, this comprehensive resource highlights applications of MCRs in natural products and intermediate synthesis, discusses current trends and future prospects in MCR chemistry, outlines novel multicomponent procedures, and more. The authors provide the practical information required for designing new reaction strategies and mechanisms, covering topics including MCR-based green synthetic methods, cyclization and cycloaddition reactions, heterocycle multicomponent syntheses in a continuous flow, catalytic alkynoyl generation, MCR synthesis of saturated heterocycles, and C–H functionalization and multicomponent reactions. Provides a thorough overview of heterocycles as input in multicomponent reactions Discusses recent advances in the field of MCR chemistry and progress in the synthesis and functionalization of heterocycles Demonstrates the use of MCRs to simplify synthetic design and achieve complexity and diversity in novel bioactive molecules Highlights examples of multicomponent polymerizations, target-oriented synthesis, and applications of MCR in medicinal chemistry Explains the methodology of using on-resin MCRs to produce heterocycle compounds Illustrating the key role of MCRs towards heterocycles in natural product synthesis, drug discovery, organic synthesis, and other applications, Multicomponent Reactions towards Heterocycles is required reading for synthetic chemists in academia and industry alike.
