Abstract
Heterocyclic chemistry forms an interesting and important part of organic chemistry. Microwave-assisted techniques were applied to design new environmentally benign syntheses of heterocycles for the undergraduate organic laboratory. To avoid toxic solvents, solid-phase synthesis and neat methods were applied. New procedures for the synthesis of seven unique heterocyclic compounds are simple, low cost, safe, and time sparing.
