Abstract
The small-sized cyclic imides and amides have been for a long time known as convenient models for study of numerous biochemical processes. In addition, owing to the structural resemblance with their naturally occurring analogues, biological activity has been documented for a number of these compounds. Recent development of the experimental and especially high-level theoretical structural methods has provided new evidences for their structure and properties. The present review aims to summarize the vibrational, structural and combined data published during the last decade on selected five- and six-membered ring imides and derivatives thereof, in the attempt to update the existing knowledge for this class of compounds. As an exceptionally suitable and thoroughly studied model system that has also been a subject for research to the authors for quite some time, the vibrational-structural results for sulfobenzimide (saccharin) and its compounds are also reviewed. The inferences are designed to be applied to other, less-studied imide systems. In spite of the recent vast progress of the analytical methods, simultaneous use of vibrational and diffraction experimental/theoretical results has proven to be far more reliable for better structural interpretation than any of these alone.

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
