Abstract
Cinnamic acid and its phenolic analogues are natural substances. Chemically, cinnamic acids or the 3-phenyl acrylic acids, offer three main reactive sites: substitution on the phenyl ring, addition on the α ,β -unsaturation and reactions of the carboxylic acid. Owing to these chemical aspects, cinnamic acid derivatives received much attention in medicinal research as traditional as well as valuable scaffolds in recent synthetic bioactive agents. In the last two decades, there has been huge attention towards various cinnamoyl derivatives and their biological efficacy. This review provides a comprehensive literature compilation concerning the synthesis of various cinnamoyl acids, esters, amides, hydrazides and related derivatives and their biological activity evaluations against diseases such as tuberculosis and malaria, which are frequent in developing countries and cardiovascular diseases, which cause a high mortality rate worldwide. We envisage that our effort in this review contributes a much needed and timely addition to the literature of medicinal research.

Carbohydrates conversion in biofuels and bioproducts
Biomass pretreatment, hydrolysis, and saccharification of carbohydrates, and sugars bioconversion in biofuels and bioproducts within a biorefinery framework. Carbohydrates derived from woody biomass, agricultural wastes, algae, sewage sludge, or any other lignocellulosic feedstock are included in this issue. Simulation, techno-economic analysis, and life cycle analysis of a biorefinery process are ...read more
Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
