Kanova, Nilay
Heterocyclic compounds are a momentous area of synthetic organic chemistry because of their existence in bioactive molecules. Pyrroles, which are one of the most important classes of heterocyclic compounds, have great importance in pharmaceutical chemistry due to their biological activities. Having these characteristics makes them drawn attention of most chemists to develop new methodologies for the synthesis of pyrroles. Recently, the cyclization of Npropargylic β-enaminones has been used for the synthesis of heterocyclic compounds, especially pyrroles. In this study, we have investigated the synthesis of new 2-acetylpyrrole derivatives which may have potential biological activities. Various pyrrole derivatives have been synthesized with two unprecedented way which are synthesis method from 1,4- oxazepines and one-pot two-step synthesis method from N-propargylic βenaminones. Firstly, α,β-alkynic ketone derivatives have been synthesized via Sonogashira coupling reaction between benzoyl chlorides and terminal alkynes. After synthesizing α,β-alkynic ketone derivatives, N-propargylic β-enaminone derivatives vi have been synthesized by the conjugate addition between propargylamine and the corresponding α,β-alkynic ketones. Secondly, the cyclization of N-propargylic β-enaminones have been carried out for the synthesis of 2-methylene-2,3-dihydro-1,4-oxazepines. A number of 2- methylene-2,3-dihydro-1,4-oxazepine derivatives have been synthesized in the presence of ZnCl2. Lastly, we have investigated the synthesis of 2-acetylpyrroles by using 1,4- oxazepines and N-propargylic β-enaminones as starting materials. We have achieved that the synthesis of the mentioned pyrroles via two original synthesis procedures. In the light of these two methods, 19 novel pyrrole derivatives have been synthesized.

In this thesis, a new methodology for developing of 2,3-disubstituted thiophenes was developed. This methodology utilizes readily available compounds in a two-step synthesis to provide a facile access to the 2,3-disubstituted thiophenes. In the...
Synthesis of Functionalized Novel alpha-Amino-beta-alkoxyphosphonates through Regioselective Ring Opening of Aziridine-2-phosphonates
Polat-Cakir, Sidika; Beksultanova, Nurzhan; Doğan, Özdemir (Wiley, 2019-11-01)
Aziridines are highly useful compounds as building blocks for the synthesis of important organic compounds. Amino acid synthesis by aziridine ring opening reaction is a good example to the use of aziridines. Although this reaction is studied by many groups, the synthesis of amino phosphonic acids is less explored. In this study, we have carried out the ring opening reaction of aziridinyl phosphonates with a variety of alcohols including the more functional propargylic and allylic alcohols. These reactions p...
