Supramolecular chemistry is an emerging field of chemistry which has attracted much attention in recent years as a result of its broad applicability in many areas. Thus, the design of functional supramolecular systems is strongly in demand in this field. For this purpose, we have developed novel phenylethynyl-BODIPY oligomer series which have absorption and emission maxima at the red part of the visible region of electromagnetic spectrum. Careful design to assemble the decyl groups to the system allowed us to dissolve the molecules in organic solvents easily. That`s why, not only we could characterize the molecules, but also spectroscopic and photopysical properties of them were investigated. As expected, as the number of repeating units “n” increase, peak absorption and emission wavelengths are shifted to the red end of the visible spectrum, with smaller increments as “n” increases. Consequently, these rigid rod like overall arrangement of oligomers could lead to applications as functional building blocks.

Ion sensing and molecular logic in supramolecular systems Coşkun, Ali; Akkaya, Engin Umut; Department of Chemistry (2007) Supramolecular chemistry is an emerging field of chemistry which has attracted much attention in recent years as a result of its broad applicability in many areas. Thus, the design of functional supramolecular systems is strongly in demand in this field. For this purpose, we have developed ratiometric fluorescent chemosensors for ion sensing and mechanically interlocked structures for their application in molecular logic. In the first part, we report a novel dimeric boradiazaindacene dye which can be conver...
Design and synthesis of near-ir emitting fluorescent chemosensors for transition metal ions Kütük, İlker; Akkaya, Engin Umut; Department of Chemistry (2008) Supramolecular chemistry is an emerging field of chemistry which has attracted much attention in recent years as a result of its broad applicability in many areas. Thus, the design of functional supramolecular systems is strongly in demand in this field. For this purpose, we have developed near-IR emitting ratiometric fluorescent chemosensors for transition metal ions. Judicious placement of dithiodioxaazamacrocycles on the BODIPY chromophore generates this chemosensor which is selective for Hg(II) ions and...
Synthesis of linkers and mediators for electrochemical reactor design and enantiopure synthon preparation Akbaşoğlu, Naime; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Department of Chemistry (2009) The thesis subject is mainly involved in Green Chemistry approach. Thiophene, furan and pyridine carboxaldehydes were chosen as starting compounds and vinylation and allylation with Grignard reaction afforded the corresponding racemic heteroaryl substituted allylic and homoallylic alcohols. Subsequent resolution with enzymes (PS-Amano II, Lipozym and Novazym 435) gave enantiomerically enriched alcohols with the e.e. values varied between 65 and 99%. The absolute configurations of all substrates are known. A...
Rational design of ratiometric chemosensor via modulation of energy donor efficiency Guliyev, Ruslan; Akkaya, Engin Umut; Department of Chemistry (2008) Rational design of fluorescent chemosensors is an active area of supramolecular chemistry, photochemistry and photophysics. Ratiometric chemosensors are even more important, as they have an internal system for selfcalibration. In order to develop a new methodology for a ratiometric chemosensor design, we proposed coupling of energy transfer phenomenon to ion sensing. In this study, we targeted energy transfer cassette type chemosensors, where the efficiency of transfer is modulated on the donor side, by met...
Acyl Azides: Versatile Compounds in the Synthesis of Various Heterocycles Balcı, Metin (Georg Thieme Verlag KG, 2018-04-01) Carbon-nitrogen bond formation is one of the most important reactions in organic chemistry. Various synthetic strategies for the generation of C-N bonds are described in the literature. For example, primary amines can be easily synthesized by the thermal decomposition of an acyl azide to an isocyanate, i.e. the Curtis rearrangement, followed by hydrolysis; the Curtius rearrangement has been used extensively. Furthermore, the advantage of the Curtius rearrangement is the isolation of acyl azides as well as t...
