Abstract
The development of new strategies for the synthesis of fused heterocycles has remained a highly attractive but challenging proposition. An overview of the application of microwave irradiation in the synthesis of fused five-membered heterocyclic compounds containing two nitrogen atoms is presented, focusing on the developments in the past 5–10 years. This contribution covers the literature concerning the total synthesis of fused five-membered N,N-heterocycles.
