Introduction
This book is based on courses we designed while teaching heterocyclic
chemistry courses in Egyptian Universities, in Libya and in Kuwait as well
as in Saudi Arabia for almost fifty years. Needless to say, that the course
material has changed several turns until we arrived at this framework.
Unfortunately all textbooks of organic chemistry and texts of chemistry
devoted to chemistry of heterocycles, with only perhaps one recent book,
describes the chemistry of only synthesized heterocycles but ignores dealing
with those made by nature, although no doubt that life only started when
algae could photosynthesise carbohydrates and the majority of these are
derivatives of either pyran or furan. r furan. In this text we will start with
chemistry of aromatic heterocycles and their nomenclature. Also a chapters
that demonstrating the existing role of heterocycles in chemical industry
basically as dye ingredients, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and catalyses
as well as other less familiar purposes are cited. Then shifted to heterocycles
manufactured by nature showing how nature since life beginning managed to
synthesis heterocycles in nature simple way swiftly and at ambient
temperature. By the end the brief chapter demonstrating green synthesis of
heterocycles will be described. We hope that we will be able to come to a
modern text that encourages chemistry in structures as well as researchers to
go back to this vital field.

Nomenclature of Heterocycles
1. Introduction
At the early days of heterocyclic chemistry no one predicted the potentiality of
this science and heterocycles at these days were given names indicating origin
like caffeine (1) extracted from coffee or and pyrrole (discovered in 1857) from
pyrolysate of bone and the name was derived from the Greek word that means
red referring to its color.

After a short period the need for systematic nomenclature become apparent
and Hanzsch1 and Widman2 have independently suggested the nomenclature
system that carry their names. The IUPAC nomenclature still approves this
method and the trivial names for ring systems shown in chart 1 were also
approved.3

2. If the ring contains more than one heteroatom of the same type the term
di, tri. and tetra. etc... is used to indicate the number of these atoms and
allocate number is used to indicate their place in the ring. The
heteroatom that would give next heteroatom and/or substituent least
number is given number l. Example:

**** Expressed by prefixing perhydro before name of unsaturated.
3. If two or more different heteroatoms are present, the one in higher place
in table 2 is indicated firstly and counting ring corners should start from
this atom then goes in the direction that gives the next atom the least
possible number. Example:

then written as prefixes in the form of the name in alphabetic order.

Aromaticity of fully Unsaturated
Heterocycles and its Reflect on The
Chemical Reactivity
2.1. Introduction
The term "Aromatic" was initially made to distinguish a group of coal tar
distillation products that has certain "Aromatic" oder. When it is said that a
compound is aromatic in character it is generally meant that this compound
although having multiple bonds it prefers to react by substitution rather than by
addition to keep its aromatic identity. This preference is a result of stabilization
that is inferred upon the aromatic system as a result of the existence of a
conjugated double bond system. Molecular orbital (M.O) theories predict extra
stabilization for a system that can be presented in more than one ground state
electronic distribution by moving in one plain, electrons form one part of the
molecule to the other part. According to Hckels systems with the number of its
-electron equals (4n + 2) in one cycle are aromatic in character and have extra
stabilization.7
Typical for aromatic systems is benzene (6 electrons) that can have two
contributing resonance forms (cf. 1).
Fully unsaturated five and six membered rings as well as some larger rings
are aromatic in the sense that they "tend" to react by substitution rather than
addition. This tendency varies from one system to other, as we will see later.
However, aromaticity in heterocycles differs than that in aromatic benzene
derivatives in several aspects. In fact we have several different situations for
cloud distribution that differ than the case of the cloud distribution in benzene
which is regarded as a regular hexagon with uniform distribution of electrons
so as the share of each carbon is unity. If we considered this situation as base
then for heterocycles we have the following cases.
M.K. Cyranski, T.M. Krygowski, A.R. Katritzky and P. von R. Schleyer, J. Org. Chem., 67,
1333 (2002).
We have a situation of six electrons for five corners and thus some of these
corners should have more than of unit electrons and for this reason these
molecules are called pi-excessive molecules. This ground state electronic
distribution. M.O. calculations for furan (2) and pyrrole (3) indicate that the ring
corners are electron rich as compared to those of benzene.8 9 10

2.4.2. Polycycles
a) Benzofused heterocycles:
Although benzofused heterocycles show bond alternations corresponding to
kekule structures (15-24), like naphthalene they prefer to react by substitution
rather than by addition while other criteria indicate that they can generally be
considered aromatics.
