Heterocycles are the most significant class of organic compounds

comprising a wide range of biological and pharmacological activities. In particular,

nitrogen and oxygen heterocycles are the important core structures, frequently found in

a large number of natural products and medicinally important molecules. Consequently,

great efforts have been made to develop direct methodologies for the synthesis

of these heterocycles including nanomaterial-catalyzed approaches. In this chapter, we

summarize the important synthetic methodologies for the synthesis of nitrogen and

oxygen-containing heterocycles involving nanomaterial catalyzed reactions. The

catalytic activity and the advantages of a variety of nanomaterials are described to

understand their importance as heterogeneous catalysts towards the synthesis of various

heterocyclic compounds.

Keywords: Heterogeneous catalysis, Nanocatalysts, Nanomaterials, Nitrogen heterocycles, Oxygen heterocycles.
