Editorial: Green Synthesis of Heterocycles

Synthesis of saturated N-heterocycles.

Saturated N-heterocycles are prevalent in biologically active molecules and are increasingly attractive scaffolds in the development of new pharmaceuticals. Unlike their aromatic counterparts, there are limited strategies for facile construction of substituted saturated N-heterocycles by convergent, predictable methods. In this Synopsis, we discuss recent advances in the synthesis of these comp...

Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of Biologically Relevant Heterocycles

Synthesis of oxygen heterocycles via alkynyltungsten compounds*

This short review article covers some useful applications of alkynyltungsten compounds to the syntheses of complex lactones. Two types of cyclizations will be emphasized: (1) cycloalkenylation of tungsten-alkynol compounds with aldehydes to give α-alkylidene oxacarbeniums, further leading to α-alkylidene lactones and (2) intramolecular [3+2]-cycloaddition of epoxides to give bicyclic lactones. ...

Synthesis of Some Quinazoline Derivatives Functionalized with3-Heterocycles Side Chain

Utilization of benzoxazinone for synthesis quinazolinone derivatives with 3-heterocycle side chain. treatment of benzoxazinon 1 with cyano acetohydrazide or thionocarbohydrazide gave the quinazolinone derivatives 2 or 12. quinazolinone 2 has been utilized as synthon for new  pyridinone, oxazet, thiazole, thiazolidinone and quinazolinone derivatives. Thiosemicarbazide and thiosemicarbazone deriv...
