Over the past decades, five and six member ring azaheterocyclic compounds have received considerable attention due to their important applications from pharmacological, industrial, and synthetic points of view. Nitrogen heterocycles derivatives, especially azine, diazine and diazols, were reported as valuable scaffolds in medicinal chemistry, showing variously biological activities such as antiviral and anticancer, antituberculosis and other antimicrobials, etc. On the other hand, these compounds are widely discussed nowadays for their applications in optoelectronics (fluorescent derivatives, chemosensors, logic gates), agriculture (growth regulators, pesticides, insecticides), etc. As part of our ongoing research in the field of azaheterocycles derivatives, we present herein some core results obtained by our group in the field of nitrogen heterocycles derivatives, focused on chemistry and their pharmacological and industrial potential applications. As far as for chemistry, our efforts were concentrated in the area of several classes of azaheterocycles namely diazols (imidazol and benzimodazol especially), fused and non-fused azine (and bis-azine), diazine (and bis-diazine), mono- and bis- indolizines, phenanthroline (1,10- 1,7- and 4,7-). Conventional (thermal heating) and nonconventional (microwave and ultrasounds) methods were used in the synthesis processes. For the pharmacological potential applications, our design was targeted on getting compounds with at least two biological activities, focused in the area of anticancer, antimycobacterial, anti-leishmaniasis, and other antimicrobials. For the industrial potential applications our research was focused on obtaining new chemical entities with fluorescent property, molecular devices (such as logic gates), chemosensors and growth regulators for plants, pesticides and insecticides and ionic liquids for synthetic uses.
