RECENT ADVANCES IN (HETERO)CYCLIZATIONS OF N-VINYLAZOLES

Abstract
Recent advances in chemistry of N-vinylazoles are surveyed in this microreview, including results published in the last decade. In particular, reactions involving double bond of N-vinylazoles and formation of new cycles are discussed. These transformations include cycloadditions, cyclopropane syntheses, and heterocyclizations based on the CH activation.
Keywords
