Applications of MCR-Derived Heterocycles in Drug Discovery

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Synthesis of Heterocycles via Multicomponent Reactions II

Part of the book series: Topics in Heterocyclic Chemistry ((TOPICS,volume 25))

Abstract

Heterocyclic structures are an integral part of numerous drugs and natural products and there is a considerable interest in efficient methods for their synthesis. A variety of multicomponent reactions (MCRs) provide access to heterocyclic structures such as isocyanide based MCRs, dicarbonyl derivative and cycloaddition MCRs. MCR-derived heterocycles are typically prepared in few, versatile and atom efficient synthetic steps and exhibit anticancer, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.
