Acetamidine in heterocycle synthesis

Abstract

Heterocycles represent the most important and diverse variety of natural products. Nowadays there are plenty of heterocycles that are known, the quantity is growing unexpectedly because of their synthetic uses and the enormous synthetic research. Heterocycles play an important role in many areas of sciences including biochemistry, medicinal chemistry and other areas of science. This field is growing and the acetamidines have gained an equally recognized position and have been developed as a common motif in organocatalysis. In this review article, we have concentrated on the synthesis of heterocycles using acetamidine.
