Abstract: | Photochemical reactions have been applied for the synthesis of complex targets in many examples recently. In many cases, these processes provide access to unique modes of reactivity or offer unrivaled increases in molecular complexity. The key-features of photochemical reactions include increased selectivity, conversion, and yield and are beneficial for industrial and “green” processes. Despite these advantages, however, photochemical reactions in chemical production or R and D processes are rare. Most technical processes are limited to commodity chemicals and have been developed decades ago. The application of photochemical reactions for the synthesis of fine chemicals, natural products, and pharmaceutically active compounds, has become very popular. Photochemical reactions are used for organic synthesis and this review article highlighted the syntheses of heterocycles. Photochemistry is particularly fascinating and afforded an exotic charm due to its unconventional nature. In this review, I have given a clear idea of applicability of photochemical irradiations for the synthesis of a number of seven and higher membered N-heterocycles. |
