Abstract
Pyrrole is one of the main five membered heterocyclic systems reported for its various chemotherapeutic activities. Subsequently, pyrroles have been highlighted as the important biologically active scaffolds. This review focuses on the synthesis, reactions and pharmacological activity associated with pyrroles, and its derivatives. Microwave-assisted reactions are also covered to understand green chemistry aspects of pyrrole and its derivatives. Various pharmacological applications are discussed critically to assess the importance of the compounds.
Keywords: Pyrroles, Microwave synthesis, Applications.

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
