Abstract: We study planar noncommutative theories such that the spatial coordinates ${hatx}_1$, ${hatx}_2$ verify a commutation relation of the form: $[{hatx}_1,{hatx}_2]=iheta({hatx}_1,{hatx}_2)$. Starting from the operatorial representation for dynamical variables in the algebra generated by ${hatx}_1$ and ${hatx}_2$, we introduce a noncommutative product of functions corresponding to a specific operator-ordering prescription. We define derivatives and traces, and use them to construct scalar-field actions. The resulting expressions allow one to consider situations where an expansion in powers of $heta$ and its derivatives is not necessarily valid. In particular, we study in detail the case when $heta$ vanishes along a linear region. We show that, in that case, a scalar field action generates a boundary term, localized around the line where $heta$ vanishes.
