Fluoro Nitro Amine pyridines : Research and Development. Heterocyclic compounds are probably the largest and most varied family of molecular fragments used by chemists for organic synthesis.

What is a Heterocyclic building block? A heterocyclic compound or ring structure is a cyclic compound that has atoms of at least two different elements as members of its ring(s). Heterocyclic chemistry is the branch of organic chemistry dealing with the synthesis, properties, and applications of these heterocycles.

Heterocyclic compounds are probably the largest and most varied family of molecular fragments used by chemists for organic synthesis.

Building block is a term in chemistry which is used to describe a virtual molecular fragment or a real chemical compound the molecules of which possess reactive functional groups. Building blocks are used for bottom-up modular assembly of molecular architectures: nano-particles, metal-organic frameworks, organic molecular constructs, supra-molecular complexes. Using building blocks ensures strict control of what a final compound or a (supra)molecular construct will be
