Seven and higher-membered oxygen heterocycles: Metal and non-metal

Abstract

The investigation of methods for the chemical synthesis is a growing area of interest due to increasing environmental issues. The use of catalysts in organic reactions has gained extensive interest. Metal and nonmetal catalysts provided a new improved alternative to traditional methods in modern synthetic chemistry. The aim of present review is to focus on the applications of metals and nonmetals for the synthesis of seven and higher-membered O-heterocycles.
