Series of homoconjugated push-pull chromophores and donor-acceptor (D-A)-functionalized spiro compounds were synthesized, in which the electron-donating strength of the anilino donor groups was systematically varied. The structural and optoelectronic properties of the compounds were investigated by X-ray analysis, UV/Vis spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and computational analysis. The homoconjugated push-pull chromophores with a central bicyclo[4.2.0]octane scaffold were obtained in high yield by [2+2] cycloaddition of 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-p-benzoquinone (DDQ) to N,N-dialkylanilino-or N,N-diarylanilino-substituted activated alkynes. The spirocyclic compounds were formed by thermal rearrangement of the homoconjugated adducts. They also can be prepared in a one-pot reaction starting from DDQ and anilino-substituted alkynes. Spiro products with N, N-diphenylanilino and N,N-diisopropylanilino groups were isolated in high yields whereas compounds with pyrrolidino, didodecylamino, and dimethylamino substituents gave poor yields, with formation of insoluble side products. It was shown by in situ trapping experiments with TCNE that cycloreversion is possible during the thermal rearrangement, thereby liberating DDQ. In the low-yielding transformations, DDQ oxidizes the anilino species present, presumably via an intermediate iminium ion pathway. Such a pathway is not available for the N, N-diphenylanilino derivative and, in the case of the N, N-diisopropylanilino derivative, would generate a strained iminium ion (A1,3 strain). The mechanism of the thermal rearrangement was investigated by EPR spectroscopy, which provides good evidence for a proposed biradical pathway starting with the homolytic cleavage of the most strained (CN)C-C(CN) bond between the fused four-and six-membered rings in the homoconjugated adducts.

Self-condensation reactions of acyl phosphonates: synthesis of tertiary O-protected alpha-hydroxyphosphonates EYMUR, SERKAN; Gollu, Mehmet; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2014-01-01) The self-condensation reaction of benzoyl dialkyl phosphonates was developed using cyanide ion as catalyst, affording versatile tertiary O-protected alpha-hydroxy phosphonates in moderate yield.
One-step synthesis of hierarchical [B]-ZSM-5 using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as mesoporogen Yalcin, Busra Karakaya; İpek Torun, Bahar (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2020-01-01) One-step facile synthesis of boron containing ZSM-5 microspheres is developed using 1,6-diaminohexane as the structure-directing agent and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as the mesoporogen. High boron incorporation up to Si/B ratio of 38 is achieved and evidenced by the stretching vibrations of B-O-Si at 667 cm(-1) and 917 cm(-1) using Fourier-transform infrared spectra. The morphology of the crystals resembles berry-like spheres with sizes approximately 15 mu m, which is composed of aggregated nanocrystals...
Synthesis of novel chiral bisoxazoline ligands with a norbornadiene backbone: use in the copper-catalyzed enantioselective Henry reaction Delikus, Rabia; Cakir, Emine; DEMİREL, NADİR; Balcı, Metin; KARATAŞ, BETÜL (The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey, 2016-01-01) Novel chiral bisoxazoline ligands based on norbornadiene were synthesized and used for the asymmetric Henry reaction. Various aromatic aldehydes were converted into chiral beta-nitro alcohols with high yields and moderate to acceptable enantioselectivities under the optimized reaction conditions.
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN CATHODIC PEAK POTENTIALS AND THEORETICALLY CALCULATED LUMO ENERGIES OF SOME 2-PHENYL BENZOXAZOLE DERIVATIVES GULLU, M; YALCIN, I; SENER, E; TURKER, L; CELEBI, N; Akbulut, Ural (Wiley, 1994-03-01) Cathodic peak potentials (E(p,c)) of twentyseven microbiologically active 2-phenyl-benzoxazole derivatives containing both electron withdrawing and electron donating groups on benzoxazole kernel and on phenyl moiety were measured by cyclic voltammetry in acetonitrile. The E(p,c) values were in the range of -2.8 V to -3.10 V except for those compounds which contained -NO2 substituent at position-5. Those benzoxazole derivatives possessing a NO2 group all had substantially lower reduction peak potentials, ran...
Preparation and characterization of a new CdS-NiFe2O4/reduced graphene oxide photocatalyst and its use for degradation of methylene blue under visible light irradiation Bagherzadeh, Mojtaba; Kaveh, Reyhaneh; Özkar, Saim; AKBAYRAK, SERDAR (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2018-10-01) In this paper, CdS nanoparticles as a visible light active photocatalyst were coupled by NiFe2O4 and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to form CdS-NiFe2O4/rGO nanocomposite by facile hydrothermal methods. The CdS-NiFe2O4/rGO nanocomposite shows enhanced photocatalytic activity for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under visible light illumination. In addition to improved photocatalytic performance, this prepared nanocomposite shows increased photostability and is magnetically separable from the aqueous medi...
