Description
This volume of
Progress in Heterocyclic Chemistry(PHC) is the thirteenth annual review of the literature, covering the work published
on important heterocyclic ring systems during 2000. In this volume there are two specialized reviews. The first, by H. Ila, H. Junjappa
and P.K. Mohanta, covers their work on annulation using ∝-oxoketene dithioacetals, a synthetic method that provides useful routes
to an impressively wide range of fused heterocycles. The second, by R. N. Warrener, is on the synthesis of fused 7-azanorbornanes.
The 7-azanorbornane structural unit is incorporated into a series of elegant polycyclic molecules with rigid geometry.
The subsequent
chapters, arranged by increasing heterocycle ring size, review recent advances in the field of heterocyclic chemistry with emphasis on
synthesis and reactions.
