Over the past few decades, pi-conjugated small organic fluorophores have received considerable attention from both academia and industry because of their potential applications in various fields like biological labeling, environmental analysis, optoelectronics etc. Among organic fluorophores, fluorescent heterocyclic compounds like thiazole and pyridine based heterocycles are an important structural motifs of fluorescent molecules and can be utilized to construct the wide variety of multifunctional materials and chemosensors. Further, it is easy to construct donor(D)-acceptor(A) type thiazole...

The carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond formation reactions are considered as important transformations in synthetic organic chemistry. They are effectively used in the synthesis of natural products and pharmaceutically important compounds. In the present study, attempts have been made to develop green and sustainable synthetic methodologies for the construction of carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bonds.

Nitrogen and sulfur heterocycles are recognized as "privileged medicinal scaffolds" because these compounds are found in a wide variety of bioactive natural products and pharmaceuticals. Among them, azoles (1,2 and 1,3-azoles) have been considered as an 'important structural motif' in a huge number of natural products and also in medicinally valuable compounds. Because of their broad based utility, efforts to develop green and sustainable synthetic methodologies for the synthesis of 1,2 and 1,3-azoles are on the ever-increasing trend in synthetic organic chemistry. In the present study,...
