: Microwave-assisted organic synthesis has been perceived as one of the most powerful and sustainable tools to accomplish expeditious organic synthesis through a greener way on account of its specific features including targeted heating, reaction homogeneity, rapidity, possible modifications of activation parameters, improved selectivity, yield and purity, along with simpler work-up. Another rapidly growing field for the development of green and sustainable protocol is the application of the magnetic nanocatalysts. They not only meet the need for facile recovery from the reaction media after completion of a reaction but also provide the best attributes of nanotechnology along with the elimination of auxiliary substances and catalyst loss, thereby, making the overall process clean, fast and cost-effective. Thus, the amalgamation of magnetic nanocatalysts and microwave irradiation present an ideal blend for the development of sustainable methods in synthetic organic chemistry. Amidst various bond forming reactions, carbon-carbon (C–C) and carbon-heteroatom (C-X, where X= O, N, S) bond formations are essentially used to devise privileged molecular scaffolds for synthetic organic and medicinal chemistry. This review gives a succinct overview of the synthesis and application of various modified magnetic nanocomposites as task-specific catalysts for microwave assisted C-C and C-X bond formation reactions in recent years.

Multi-Component Reactions (MCRs) have emerged as an excellent tool in organic chemistry for the synthesis of various bioactive molecules. Among these, one-pot MCRs are included, in which organic reactants react with domino in a single-step process. This has become an alternative platform for the organic chemists, because of their simple operation, less purification methods, no side product and faster reaction time. One of the important applications of the MCRs can be drawn in carbon- carbon (C-C) and carbon-heteroatom (C-X; X = N, O, S) bond formation, which is extensively used by the organic chemists to generate bioactive or useful material synthesis. Some of the key carbon- carbon bond forming reactions are Grignard, Wittig, Enolate alkylation, Aldol, Claisen condensation, Michael and more organic reactions. Alternatively, carbon-heteroatoms containing C-N, C-O, and C-S bond are also found more important and present in various heterocyclic compounds, which are of biological, pharmaceutical, and material interest. Thus, there is a clear scope for the discovery and development of cleaner reaction, faster reaction rate, atom economy and efficient one-pot synthesis for sustainable production of diverse and structurally complex organic molecules. Reactions that required hours to run completely in a conventional method can now be carried out within minutes. Thus, the application of microwave (MW) radiation in organic synthesis has become more promising considerable amount in resource-friendly and eco-friendly processes. The technique of microwaveassisted organic synthesis (MAOS) has successfully been employed in various material syntheses, such as transition metal-catalyzed cross-coupling, dipolar cycloaddition reaction, biomolecule synthesis, polymer formation, and the nanoparticle synthesis. The application of the microwave-technique in carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond formations via MCRs with major reported literature examples are discussed in this review.

Over the years, microwave-assisted organic synthesis (MAOS) became a commonly applied mainstream tool for the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds. The broad range of emerging applications in this field is mainly due to the significant contribution of MAOS to the development of ecofriendly processes. Various transformations have been developed for the synthesis of N-heterocycles under microwave conditions, including fast and selective processes. Tandem reactions involving greener reaction media, solvent-free conditions, and solid-phase synthesis are of exceptional interest in this area. In most transformations, microwave conditions dramatically enhanced reaction rates, as well as provided improved yields. This account highlights the most recent advancements in MAOS-based tandem processes for the synthesis of N-heterocycles.

: Aziridines are the saturated three-membered cyclic amines that constitute an important group of synthetic intermediates. These could act as a precursor for diverse organic compounds owing to the reactivity due to the ring strain associated with them. The outstanding property of aziridines is their high reactivity towards various nucleophilic and electrophilic reagents to acquire more stable ring-opened or ring-expanded amines that could be obtained from the release of strain energy intrinsic in a small ring. As such, aziridines could be used in the synthesis of 4-7 membered heterocycles of biological and industrial significance, such as azetidines, imidazoles, thiazoles, pyrazines, pyrimidines, benzothiazines, benzodiazepines, etc. Earlier synthesis of aziridines was considered a laborious task due to their instability. However, various synthetic approaches leading to the formation of aziridines are now available in the literature. Recently, green, cost-effective and approaches based on simpler work-up for these reactions have attracted researcher's attention. This review article deals with synthetic routes of aziridines and aziridine applications in organic synthesis.
