Summary:The simple preparation and functionalization of oxa/aza heterocycles requires new and efficient starting materials to be discovered so that regioselective methodologies with a wide range of applications in organic synthesis can be developed. With this in mind, β‐enamino diketones have emerged as a suitable building block for preparing the most diverse (poly)heterocyclic systems, through cyclocondensation or cycloaddition reactions. This review compiles all the reactions that have been conducted using these starting materials, ever since they were first disclosed in 1980. β‐Enamino diketones have risen as suitable starting materials for the construction of the most diverse classes of heterocycles through classical [3+2] and [3+3] cyclocondensation reactions with NN‐, NO‐ and NCN‐ dinucleophiles. This review gathers all reported works since its disclosure in the 80's and aspects like reactivity and selectivity are discussed thoroughly.
