2- The naming of the prefix of fused (less
prior) heterocycles is given as such:
Furan = furo
Thiophene = thieno
Pyridine = pyrido
Pyrrole = pyrrolo
Imidazole = imidazo
Quinoline = quino
3- Determination of the sides of fusion
for both sides of the two fused
heterocycles as such:
l a- The side of fusion with the parent ring is
numbered alphabetically and the letter of fusion
is placed between square brackets at its end.
