The synthesis of new mono-, bi- and tri-heterocyclic carboxylic and phosphonic acid models are attracting the interest of research teams around the world due to the broad spectrum of activity they present. Indeed, these biomolecules constitute a class of compounds active in biochemistry, enzymology, medicine, agrochemical industry, and pharmacology. The Professors and Researchers, members of the Organic Chemistry Laboratory, aware of the importance of integrating the University into its socio-economic environment and of the interest in linking their fundamental research axes to the world of industry, have turned to themes, at the chemistry-biology interface, focused on the search for molecules with agrochemical, pharmaceutical, and therapeutic potential. In addition to these properties, these molecules have several reactive centers and can be involved in different reactions, very important steps in the formation of the organic chemist. This book covers key areas of heterocyclic chemis...

Facile and green synthetic approaches are important issues in organic synthesis. Green chemistry has become a motivational and inspirational tool for organic chemists to develop mild and benign pathways for the synthesis of biologically active compounds. The naturally available fruit juice as a biocatalyst in synthesis fulfills almost all the terms and conditions of green chemistry and attracted the interest of researchers. Fruit juice is also naturally occurring which are being used as biocatalyst in organic reaction and act as homogeneous catalysts for various selective transformations of simple and complex molecules. Now days aqueous extract of different fruit juice used as biocatalyst in the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds. This growing interest in fruit juice is mainly because of eco-friendly character, non-hazardous, easily available and cost effective. The purpose of this chapter is to look out present aspects of fruit juice in synthesis of potentially bioactive heterocyc...
