Development of efficient routes to many kinds of fluorine-containing
heterocycles is an attractive area of research since these compounds are now widely
recognized as important organic materials for their potential use in medicinal and
agricultural scientific fields. This review survey research works on trifluoromethylsubstituted
fused bicyclic heterocycles and their corresponding benzo-fused analogues over
the last twelve years. Different approaches for the synthesis of such systems are discussed.
