Pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine is one of the isomers of pyrolodiazine family. Pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine possesses a bicyclic heteroaromatic structure that have 10 electrons. It has various biological importances in synthetic chemistry; therefore, many different approaches to generate this skeleton have been developed so far. In this study, our prior aim was to develop a new synthetic methodology for the formation of pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine moiety. In the first part of this focus, the starting compound, methyl 2-(2-methoxy-2-oxoethyl)-1-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylate was successfully synthesized, then the conversion of the ester group at the lower arm to the amine group was carried out. Heteroatom cyclization catalyzed by CuI afforded the desired substituted pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine structure. In the second part, it was aimed to synthesize new compounds with unusual structures which are not described in the literature; namely, as pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine N-oxide. In this direction, first pyrrole was submitted to Vilsmeier-Haack reaction to attach a formyl group at C-2. Substitution reaction then effectively gave 1-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde, which was a key molecule to synthesize the aldoxime. AuCl3 catalyzed cyclization of the corresponding oxime afforded pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine N-oxide. In the next step, Sonogashira coupling reactions were carried out to obtain terminal alkynes (RC≡CR') starting from 1-(prop-2-yn-1-yl)-1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde. The aim of this part was to study the effect of aryl groups to the activated alkyl functional group by a metal catalyst. In this case, unexpected oxime-oxime transformation was observed, which is unprecedented in the literature

Enantioselective Michael Addition of Nitroalkanes to Nitroalkenes Catalyzed by Chiral Bifunctional Quinine-Based Squaramides Kanberoğlu, Esra; Tanyeli, Cihangir (Wiley, 2015-10-26) A family of chiral bifunctional acid-/base-type quinine/squaramide organocatalysts is shown to be highly active promoters of the conjugate addition of 1-nitropropane to various trans-β-nitroalkenes. The cooperation of the quinine and the sterically encumbered squaramide moieties catalyzed the Michael addition reactions at 0 °C by using a catalyst loading of only 2 mol % to afford the 1,3-dinitro Michael adducts with excellent enantioselectivity and diastereoselectivity (up to 95 % ee and syn/anti isomers
Generation of acyl anion equivalents from acylphosphonates via phosphonate-phosphate rearrangement: A highly practical method for cross-benzoin reaction Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Reis, O; Igdir, AC; Esiringu, I; Eymur, S (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2005-12-09) Acylphosphonates are potent acyl anion precursors that generate acyl anion equivalents under the promotion of cyanide anion via phosphonate-phosphate rearrangement. These anions readily react with aldehydes to provide cross-benzoin products. In this way it is possible to synthesize a variety of aromatic-aromatic, aromatic-aliphatic, and aliphatic-aromatic benzoins. Moreover the reaction of benzoylphosphonate with potent electrophile 2,2,2-trifluoroacetophenone provided the corresponding aldehyde-ketone coup...
Naphthazarin-Polycyclic Conjugated Hydrocarbons and Iptycenes Dengiz, Çağatay; GUTIERREZ, Gregory D.; SWAGER, Timothy M. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2017-07-21) The synthesis of a set of naphthazarin-containing polycyclic conjugated hydrocarbons is described herein. Sequential Diels-Alder reactions on a tautomerized naphthazarin core were employed to access the final conjugated systems. Complete conjugation across the backbone can be achieved through complexation with BF2, as observed by (HNMR)-H-1 analysis and UV/vis spectroscopy. Precise synthetic control over the degree of oxidation of naphthazarin quinone Diels-Alder adduct 10 is additionally demonstrated and e...
Chemoenzymatic synthesis of chiral hydroxymethyl cycloalkenols Şenocak, Deniz; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Department of Chemistry (2004) Chiral cyclic alkenols with hydroxymethyl functionality are important structural units in many biologically active natural compouds such as prostaglandins, sesquiterpene antiviral agents, pentenomycins, xanthocidin, sarkomycin, etc. 1,3-cycloalkanediones are converted into bicyclic polyoxo derivatives with formaldehyde and trioxane in the presence of Lewis acid. Selective oxidation of the bicyclic compounds by using manganese(III)acetate followed by enzyme-catalyzed kinetic resolution afforded chiral bicycl...
