Recent Methods for Synthesis of Coumarin Derivatives and Their New Applications

Abstract

Heterocycles have diversified applications in various fields viz. pharmacy, medicine, dyestuff, and polymer. There is a persistent need of upgrading the information related to heterocyclic compounds, which play a significant role in biochemical reactions in living cells. There is a whole range of heterocycles/fused heterocycles with one/two heteroatoms with diverse applications. The momentum gained for the synthesis of new heterocycles testifies to their significance. The challenges in synthesizing new heterocycles and also its properties that increase their applications stimulate research in heterocycles. In this book, we will be discussing chemical strategies for the synthesis of the spectrum of heterocycles and their relevant applications in pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and material science. The green synthetic approach is an eco-friendly method conferring a unique way of looking into the chemistry involved in synthesis to minimize/eliminate waste, decrease consumption of energy, and usage of green solvents. Green synthetic approaches for synthesizing spectra of heterocyclic scaffolds will also be elaborated. Overall this book hopes to explore the green synthetic approach and advanced synthetic techniques for the synthesis of a wide spectrum of heterocycles and their applications in various fields.
