Abstract
Recent developments in the microwave-assisted synthesis of carbo- and heterocyclicsystems are reviewed with the focus on diversity-oriented cycloaddition reactions. Ineed, these reactions represent one of the most important endeavors in chemistry and are of considerable interest in the synthesis of carbo-and heterocyclic compounds from simple unsaturated systems, and allow the creation of more than two bonds in one step. This review summarizes recent literature (2006-2013) on advances regarding [3+2], [4+2] and [2+2] cycloadditions including their miscellaneous version. Advantages of microwave dielectric heating are highlighted by comparison with conventional thermal conditions. In particular, we describe here the microwave effect, reaction media including solvent-free transformations and more ecological processes in the context of green and environmentally benign chemistry.
Keywords: [2+2] cycloaddition, 1, 3-dipolar cycloaddition, carbocycles, diels-alder, green catalysis, green chemistry, heterocycles, microwave synthesis.

Carbohydrates conversion in biofuels and bioproducts
Biomass pretreatment, hydrolysis, and saccharification of carbohydrates, and sugars bioconversion in biofuels and bioproducts within a biorefinery framework. Carbohydrates derived from woody biomass, agricultural wastes, algae, sewage sludge, or any other lignocellulosic feedstock are included in this issue. Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
