Four-Membered Heterocycle Synthesis offers a comprehensive approach to these unstable organic compounds, providing a systematic introduction to the synthesis and reactions of all common four-membered heterocycles and illustrating different methods to prepare specific four-membered heterocycles. Four-membered heterocyclic compounds are known as a class of unstable organic compounds because of their strain characteristics, which make them very beneficial as precursors for the formation of a broad range of complex heterocyclic molecules and for synthetic elaboration.
