Abstract: Nitrogen based heterocycles display an impressive repertoire of biological activities, including
antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-tuberculosis, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-viral, anti-HIV, anticancer,
anti-helminthic, and other pharmacological activities. Numerous novel nitrogen-based heterocycles
have been synthesized, which showed various physiological properties, and their application in
medicinal chemistry is ever-growing. The present review will provide an in-depth view of Nheterocyclic
compounds that showed biological activities in the last 5 years (2017-2021). This review
article will be helpful for the structural design of effective and sustainable N-heterocyclic drugs against
diseases with minimal side effects.
