Fused heterocylic compounds is a heterocylic compound (eg. Furan) fused with another ring which can be either a carbon ring (benzene) or can be fused with another heterocylic ring(Pyridine,Pyrrole,...etc). Fused heterocyclics can be either 2 fused rings,3 rings or more.
From the famous examples on fused heterocylic compounds:
-Heroin
-Indole
-Morphine
-Carbazole
Heterocyclic compounds may be aromatic (3 double bonds in the cyclic structure) or nonaromatic.
Some organic molecules contain rings of atoms. The atoms of the ring may be all carbons, or contain an element such as S, N, O, P, etc. We call the compounds heterocyclics if these elements are part of a ring. For example, THF is a molecule that is heterocyclic, has 4 carbons and an O to make a 5 membered ring. Dioxin has 2 Oxygens and 4 carbons. These heterocyclic compounds display some wonderful reactions. Heterocyclic chemistry still follows the rules of organic chemistry, but other atoms are involved. Dr Jim Romano CEO Orgoman.com
Carbon is the element that is present in all four main classes of organic compounds: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids.
Yes, aromatic compounds can belong to other classes of compounds. For example, they can be part of heterocyclic compounds, where the aromatic ring contains atoms other than carbon, such as nitrogen, oxygen, or sulfur. Additionally, aromatic compounds can also be functionalized to form compounds like alcohols, aldehydes, or acids while retaining their aromatic character. This versatility makes aromatic compounds integral to a wide range of chemical classes.
Guanine is one of the four main nucleobases found in DNA and RNA, and it pairs with cytosine. It is a heterocyclic compound consisting of a fused pyrimidine-imidazole ring system. Within a DNA double helix, guanine forms hydrogen bonds with cytosine on the opposite strand.
A benzazepine is any of the class of heterocyclic compounds consisting of a benzene ring fused to an azepine ring.

The benefits of heterocyclic compounds are that the molecules form cycles that bond. Heterocyclic compounds are a common ingredient in medications or drugs.
