Special Issue Information

Rearrangements in heterocyclic chemistry are a fascinating area of research that involves the transformation of heterocyclic compounds into different isomers or rearranged products. These reactions have both synthetic and mechanistic significance, as they can provide access to new and diverse chemical structures, and shed light on the underlying mechanisms that govern chemical transformations in heterocyclic systems.

Some of the more well-known rearrangement reactions include the Beckmann rearrangement, the Claisen rearrangement, and the Curtius rearrangement, each of which involves the migration of functional groups within the heterocyclic ring. Other rearrangements involve changes in ring size or the formation of new bonds between heterocycles.

Research in this field is ongoing, and there are many exciting opportunities for scientists to contribute new insights and advance our understanding of these complex reactions. We invite researchers from around the world to submit their work on rearrangements in heterocyclic chemistry, and join us in exploring this fascinating area of study.
