Intramolecular Heterocyclization of O-Propargylated Aromatic Hydroxyaldehydes as an Expedient Route to Substituted Chromenopyridines under Metal-Free Conditions

A concise and regioselective approach to the synthesis of chromenopyridine and chromenopyridinone derivatives was developed. The synthetic strategy relies on the O-propargylation of aromatic hydroxyaldehydes followed by reaction with propargylamine. The intramolecular cycloaddition reaction between the alkyne and azadiene, which is formed as an intermediate, furnished the desired skeletons.

Intermolecular heterocyclization of alkynones with 2-mercaptoacetaldehyde under metal-free conditions: synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted thiophenes
Vatansever, Erol Can; Kilic, Kubra; Ozer, Merve Sinem; KOZA, GANİ; Menges, Nurettin; Balcı, Metin (Elsevier BV, 2015-09-30)
A concise and regioselective approach for the synthesis of 2,3-disubstituted thiophene derivatives has been developed. The synthetic strategy relies on the reaction of an in situ generated 2-mercaptoacetaldehyde with various alkynones. Furthermore, we calculated the energy gap between the HOMO and the LUMO orbitals of all compounds and observed that the introduction of a strong electron-withdrawing group decreased the HOMO-LUMO energy gap.
Regioselective Synthesis of Benzo[h][1,6]- naphthyridines and Chromenopyrazinones through Alkyne Cyclization
Hoplamaz, Emre; KESKİN, SELBİ; Balcı, Metin (Wiley, 2017-03-17)
A regioselective approach to the synthesis of benzo[h][1,6]-naphthyridine and chromenopyrazinone derivatives was developed. The synthetic route to benzo[h][1,6]naphthyridines involves the N-propargylation of aromatic aminobenzaldehydes, followed by reaction with propargylamine in the presence of DBU (1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0] undec-7ene). For the synthesis of chromenopyrazine and chromeno-pyrazinone derivatives, the acetonitrile group was introduced to salicylaldehyde derivatives, and a DBU-promoted cyclizati...
Concise design and synthesis of pyridine-fused heterocycles via 6 pi- Azaelectrocyclization process of iminoalkyne derivatives
Sendil, Kivilcim; Keskin, Selbi; Balcı, Metin (Elsevier BV, 2019-11-15)
A concise and regioselective approach to the synthesis of pyridine-fused heterocycles and benzoxazepine derivatives was developed. Propargyl imines derived from aromatic aldehydes and propargyl amine underwent 6 pi-electrocyclization reactions at high temperatures in high yields to form pyridine-fused heterocycles. Application of the same methodology to aromatic imines having a hydroxyl group in the ortho position resulted in the formation of (benz)oxazepine derivatives. The formation mechanism of the produ...
Novel annulation reactions for the synthesis of substituted pyrroles darzens reaction of acyl phosphonates with α-bromo ketones : selective synthesis of cis- and transepoxyphosphonates
Emrullah, Mustafa; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Department of Chemistry (2009)
In the first part of this thesis, it is aimed to develope methods for the synthesis of trisubstituted pyrrrole derivatives. 2-Aminopyrrroles, alkoxy and sulfonyl substittitued pyrrole derivatives as well as pirolinones show interesting biological activities and are precursor of well know drugs. Although there is a number of methods for the synthesis of pyrroles, the synthesis of 2-aminopyrroles is limited to few works and is not widely known. Therefore, it is still an important goal in organic chemistry to ...
Selective synthesis of N-substituted pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazin-1(2H)-one derivatives via alkyne cyclization
Cetinkaya, Yasin; Balcı, Metin (2014-12-03)
A novel and efficient synthesis of N-substituted pyrrolo-pyrazinone derivatives has been developed. A trichloroacetyl group connected to the pyrrole ring was converted into the desired carboxamide derivatives. Promoted by NaH, the pyrrole carboxamide derivatives underwent a tandem reaction with propargyl bromide to afford pyrrolo-pyrazinones with high efficiency under very mild conditions. The mechanism for the formation of the products is discussed and supported by DFT calculations. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. ...
