Thiazoles have attracted much synthetic interest due to their wide variety of biological properties and are important members of heterocyclic compounds. In recent years, studies on the synthesis of thiazole compounds have been increasing because of the properties of this core. In particular, the hybrid structures in which the thiazole ring and the other nuclei are linked have gained popularity. Hybrid structures are formed by the combination of different groups of chemical reactivity and biological activity characteristics. In this review, we highlight recent developments related to hybrid structures containing a thiazole core, recently developed as anticancer, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-tubercular, antialzheimer and antidiabetic compounds.

Indole and its derivatives have engaged a unique place in the chemistry of nitrogen heterocyclic compounds. The recognition of the plant growthhormone, heteroauxin, the significant amino acids, tryptamine & tryptophan and anti-inflammatory drug, indomethacine are the imperativederivatives of indole which have added stimulus to this review work. Isatin (1H-indole-2,3-dione), an indole derivative of plant origin. Althoughit is a naturally occurring compound, but was synthesized by Erdmann and Laurent in 1840 before it was found in nature. Isatin is a versatileprecursor for many biologically active molecules and its diversified nature makes it a versatile substrate for further modifications. It is concernedin many pharmacological activities like anti-malarial, antiviral, anti-allergic, antimicrobial etc; isatin and its derivatives have been also found todemonstrate promising outcomes against various cancer cell lines.

This review article is focused on the synthesis of compounds with quinazolinones and benzo di/triazepine scaffolds. These invaluable derivatives are of great interest in medicinal and pharmaceutical studies because of their important biological properties. Quinazolinones have diverse applications due to their antibacterial, analgesic, antiinflammatory, antifungal, antimalarial, antihypertensive, CNS depressant, anticonvulsant, antihistaminic, antiparkinsonism, antiviraland and anticancer activities. On the other hand, pharmacological properties of benzodiazepines include antianxiety, anticancer, anticonvulsant, antagonists of cholecystokinin receptors (CCK), antileishmanial, sleep-inducing muscle relaxant and several other useful and interesting properties. As an example, three main categories of drugs, namely anxiolytics, sedative hypnotics (sleep inducers) and anticonvulsants are constructed by 1,4-benzodiazepines. Finally, benzotriazepines are believed to possess various pharmacological properties such as antipsychotic and antitumor activities. Hence, this review is divided into three major sections, considering quinazolinones, benzodiazepines and benzotriazepines. In the first section, we take a brief look at various approaches towards synthesis of substituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones and 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones. Also in this section, we try to give an overview of the synthetic routes and strategies recently reported for the generation of various classes of substituted 4(3H)-quinazolinones and 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones. Accordingly, quinazolin-4(3H)-ones, were subdivided into three major classes: 2-substituted, 3-substituted and 2,3-disubstituted-quinazolinones. 2,3- dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones also were subdivided into six sub-categories: 2-monosubstituted, 2,2- disubstituted, 2,3-disubstituted, 1,2,3-trisubstituted, 2,2,3-trisubstituted 2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones and boron-containing quinazoline-4(1H)-ones. In the other two sections, we cover the literature related to synthesis of benzo di/triazepine. The most recent developments are highlighted with a special emphasis on new synthetic routes based on isatoic anhydride as starting material.

3-Amino-1,2,4-triazines are considered versatile compounds for its significance as building blocks in synthetic and pharmaceutical chemistry. The synthesis, chemical reactivity, and applications of substituted 1,2,4-triazines bearing an amino group were described in this review. The presence of the amino group at position 3 exhibited unique reactivities towards carbonitrile, carbonyl and isothiocyanate reagents. The reactions were divided into several categories, depending on the other substituents on the 1,2,4-triazine ring. In this review, relevant and appropriate applications of the synthesized, isolated, and condensed heterocycles derivatives were reported.

Marine and terrestrial environments are rich sources of various bioactive substances, which have been used by humans since prehistoric times. Nowadays, due to advances in chemical sciences, new substances are still discovered, and their chemical structures and biological properties are constantly explored. Drugs obtained from natural sources are used commonly in medicine, particularly in cancer and infectious diseases treatment. Naphthyridines, isolated mainly from marine organisms and terrestrial plants, represent prominent examples of naturally derived agents. They are a class of heterocyclic compounds containing a fused system of two pyridine rings, possessing six isomers depending on the nitrogen atom’s location. In this review, biological activity of naphthyridines obtained from various natural sources was summarized. According to previous studies, the naphthyridine alkaloids displayed multiple activities, i.a., antiinfectious, anticancer, neurological, psychotropic, affecting cardiovascular system, and immune response. Their wide range of activity makes them a fascinating object of research with prospects for use in therapeutic purposes.

 Incorporating selenium metal bonded to the pyridine nucleus was achieved by the reaction of selenium metal with 2-chloropyridine carbonitrile 1 in the presence of sodium borohydride as reducing agent. The resulting non isolated selanyl sodium salt was subjected to react with various α-halogenated carbonyl compounds to afford the selenyl pyridine derivatives 3a-f  which compounds 3a-d underwent Thorpe-Ziegler cyclization to give 1-amino-2-substitutedselenolo[2,3-b]pyridine compounds 4a-d, while the other compounds 3e,f failed to be cyclized. Basic hydrolysis of amino selenolo[2,3-b]pyridine carboxylate 4a followed by decarboxylation furnished the corresponding amino selenolopyridine compound 6 which was used as a versatile precursor for synthesis of other heterocyclic compound 7-16. All the newly synthesized compounds were established by elemental and spectral analysis (IR, 1H NMR) in addition to mass spectra for some of them hoping these compounds afforded high biological activity.
