The contents of this dissertation are divided into three Sections. (Section A, B & C). Section A includes introduction and overview on Copper catalyzed cascade reactions describing the detailed definitions of Cascade reactions and differentiation of cascade reactions. This section intern includes variety of copper catalyzed cascade reactions which involves the formation of two, three and four new bonds. A variety of interesting miscellaneous copper catalyzed cascade reactions was also described. Section B contains two parts. In part I, the syntheses of diverse heterocyclic compounds using 2-halobenzamide derivatives were compiled from the literature. In part II, the Syntheses of spiro isoindolinone-indolines and 1,2-disubstituted indoles from 2-iodobenzamide derivatives were described. Finally, Section C contains three parts. In part I, the syntheses of diverse heterocyclic compounds using 2-halobenzylcyanide derivatives were compiled from the literature. In part II, a copper catalyzed cascade approach for the synthesis of Dibenzo1,8-naphthyridine derivatives was described. In part III, copper catalyzed cascade approach for the synthesis of 2-Aryl-3-cyanobenzofurans and Dibenzo[b,f]oxepine-10-carbonitrile derivatives was described.

The copper catalyzed cascade synthetic protocol described in this dissertation was applied to 2-halobenzamides and 2-halobenzylcyanides, respectively, to synthesize diverse heterocyclic compounds which includes 1,2- disubstituted Indoles, Isoindolinone derivatives and spiro isoindolinone-indoline derivatives with respect to 2-halobenzamides and benzofurans, oxepin derivatives and 1,8-naphthyridine derivatives with respect to 2-halobenzylcyanides. The reactions involved in this protocol for the syntheses of these heterocycles were Ullmann coupling, Sonagashira coupling, Hydro amination, Hydro amidation, Oxa-Michael addition, Knoevenagel condensation and oxidation.
