Cyclitols have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years because of diverse biological activities exhibited by them and also synthetic usefulness in the synthesis of other natural compounds or pharmaceuticals. The presence of hydroxymethyl groups in many cyclitols units building natural products is also attracting a remarkable attention. In this study, novel synthetic strategies leading to cyclitol derivatives including hydroxymethyl groups were investigated and the syntheses of bis-homoinositol derivative 127 and hydroxymethyl containing conduritol derivative 137 were achieved successfully. For the synthesis of bishomo-chiro-inositol (127), lactone derivative 132 was synthesized as key compound. The molecule was functionalized with the use of photooxygenation and epoxidation reactions to get target stereochemistry. For the synthesis of hydroxymethyl containing conduritol 137, hydroxymethyl substituted p-benzoquinone derivative 136 was synthesized as a key compound. Bromination of related double bond, reduction of carbonyl groups and the following substitution of bromine atoms form the basis of our strategy. As a result we enabled to synthesize novel cyclitol derivatives stereoselectively by using commercially available starting compounds and well known reactions.

The development of the novel synthesis for conduritols
Cantekin, Seda; Balcı, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2006)
Conduritols have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years owing to biological activities exhibited by them and also their usefulness in the synthesis of other natural products and pharmaceuticals. Conduritols show interesting inhibitor activity for some glycosidases and serve as important intermediates in the synthesis of inositols. In this study, novel synthetic strategies leading to highly functionalized cyclohexene derivative containing an aromatic ring, namely phenyl-substituted conduritol wa...
Synthesis of ferrocenyl cycloheptadienones
Açıkgöz, Canet; Zora, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2005)
Synthesis of seven-membered ring systems such as cycloheptadienones has attracted a great deal of attention in organic chemistry since they are present in a variety of biologically important molecules. Incorporation of the essential structures of such compounds with a ferrocene moiety instead of an aryl group could provide subtances with enhanced antitumor activities since some ferrocene derivatives have already proved to be active against a number of tumors. To develop a ferrocenyl-substituted seven-member...
Studies on the reaction of acyl phosphonates with aldehydes in the presence of proline
Yalçınkaya, Hatice; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Department of Chemistry (2009)
Acyl phosphonates are interesting precursors for the synthesis of biologically active compounds. In the first part, the acyl phosphonates are synthesized starting from the corresponding acyl chloride. The acyl chlorides are converted into acyl phosphonates by using trialkylphosphites. The reaction of acyl phosphonates with aldehydes in the presence of proline furnished not the suggested aldol products via proline catalyzed aldol reaction but bicyclic products via one pot tricomponent 1,3-dipolar cycloadditi...
Addition of carbonyl compounds to the cyclic olefins : synthesis of cyclitols
Altun, Yasemin; Balcı, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2008)
Cyclitols have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years owing to biological activities exhibited by them and also their usefulness in the synthesis of other natural products and pharmaceuticals. Carbasugars are also a derivative of cyclitols and they are cyclic monosaccharide analogues which posses CH2OH group in their structure. In this study, novel synthetic strategies leading to cyclitol derivatives were investigated and the synthesis of tetraol (72) and pentaol (73) derivatives containing CH2...
Oxidative ring opening reactions of a-hydroxy ketones
Aybey, Ayşe; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Department of Chemistry (2008)
Chiral polyfunctionalized 1,5-dicarbonyl compounds are important synthetic intermediates and starting materials for many biologically active compounds so their synthesis has a great importance in the literature. In the first step, 1,3-cyclohexandione and other b-diketone derivatives are protected under acid catalyzation and their corresponding b-keto enol ether derivatives are obtained. These b-keto enol ethers are then converted to a-acetoxy enones in racemic form by Mn(OAc)3 mediated oxidation. Enzymatic ...
