Abstract

Applications of flash vacuum pyrolysis to the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds published between 2000 and 2015 are described in six major sections with 150 literature references. The emphasis is on methods suitable for preparation of stable heterocyclic products in multi-gram quantities. Consideration of the relatively few reports of synthesis of three- and four-membered rings is followed by the largest single section on synthesis of five-membered rings, mainly those containing one or two nitrogen atoms. A further major section considers synthesis of six-membered ring products, again predominantly containing nitrogen, before final shorter sections on seven-membered, eight-membered and larger rings.
