Abstract
Heterocyclic compounds have been synthesized by means of stoichiometric reagents under acidic or basic conditions. Recent progress of homogeneous transition-metal catalysis realizes a highly selective and atom-economical methodology for synthesis of heterocycles under neutral and mild conditions. This review highlights the recent advances in the area of ruthenium-catalyzed syntheses of heterocyclic compounds.
