Volume 25 of Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry comprises six chapters. Three of them update contributions in earlier volumes of the series Isoxazole Chemistry Since 1963 by B. J. Wakefield and D. J. Wright extends the review of isoxazole chemistry which appeared in Volume 2 by N. K. Kochetkov and S. D. Sokolov. J. W. Bunting s contribution Heterocyclic Pseudobases extends and considerably expands on the review of the same name by D. Beke in Volume 1 of the series. The Literature of Heterocyclic Chemistry, Part II (A. R. Katritzky and P. M. Jones) is a sequel to The Literature of Heterocyclic Chemistry (by A. R. Katritzky and S. M. Weeds) in Volume 7 which surveyed and classified monographs and reviews on the subject for the period 1945-1965. 

The seventh volume of Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry includes surveys of four groups of heterocyclic compounds furans (P. Bosshard and C. H. Eugster), dithiolium salts (H. Prinzbach and E. Futterer), 1,3,4-oxadiazoles (A. Hetzheim and K. Mockel), and diquinolylme-thanes (G. Scheibe and E. Daltrozzo). Further chapters deal with applications of mass spectrometry to heterocycles (G. Spiteller), an area which has expanded very rapidly of late, and the halogenation of heterocycles (J. J. Eisch). Finally, a summary is given of reviews in the heterocyclic field, classified by subject (A. R. Katritzky and S. M. Weeds), which it is hoped may be of assistance in literature surveys.
