Heterocyclic compounds are indispensable organic structures because of their promising potentialapplications in medicinal, pharmaceutical and other related fields of chemistry. Exploring theseheterocyclic compounds by evaluating metal nanoparticles as efficient nanocatalysts have attractedthe researchers over the past decades, due to their stability, recyclability, reusability rather thanconventional catalysts. Most of the nano-catalyzed organic reactions are taking place in benign andunder green conditions. In this mini-review, we have documented synthesis of some of the recentN-containing heterocyclic compounds by utilizing advanced nanoparticles as effective catalysts. Ithas been concluded that exercising these nanocatalysts for the synthesis of N-containing heterocycliccompounds not only enhanced the yield of the product but has extensively increased the selectivity ofthe desired products via greener approach.
