Utilization of Nitrogen and Oxygen Compounds as Building Blocks of some Heterocycles

Abstract

Since many decades, active heterocyclic compounds are one of the main topics of interest for the medicinal chemists as it displays a number of pharmacological activities. Nitrogen, sulphur and oxygen containing five and six membered heterocyclic compounds have occupied enormous significance in the field of medicinal chemistry. Medicinal or pharmaceutical chemistry is a scientific discipline at the intersection of chemistry and pharmacology involved with designing, synthesizing and developing pharmaceutical drugs. Medicinal chemistry involves the identification, synthesis and development of new chemical entities suitable for therapeutic use. Now with every possible bacterial infection, the research still on antimicrobial agent is continuously going on to develop new molecules.
