We hereby report the first preparation of the 5,6-dihydro-4H-furo[2.3-c]pyrrol-4-one (3) and its derivatives starting from methyl 3-(methoxycarbonyl)furnan-2-acetate (8). The ester functionality connected to the methylene group was regiospecifically converted to the desired monohydrazide 9. Conversion of 9 into the acyl azide In followed by Curtius rearrangement gave the corresponding isocyanate derivative 11 (Scheme 2). Reaction of 11 with different nucleophiles produced urethane and urea derivatives (Scheme 3). Intramolecular cyclization reactions provided the target compounds (Scheme 5). Removal of the amine-protecting group formed the title compound 3.

Regioselective synthesis of the 3,4-dihydrofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidin-2(1H)-one skeleton: a new class of compound
Koza, Gani; Ozcan, Sevil; ŞAHİN, Ertan; Balcı, Metin (Elsevier BV, 2009-08-01)
We hereby report the first preparation of the 3,4-dihydrofuro[3,2-d]pyrimidin-2(1H)-one skeleton formed by two controlled Curtius rearrangements of the corresponding acyl azides, prepared from 2-(2-methoxy-2-oxoethyl)furan-3-carboxylate via the hydrazide. Rearrangement of the acyl azides followed by trapping by nucleophiles and intramolecular trapping provided the target compounds.
Enantioselective synthesis of 2-(2-arylcyclopropyl)glycines: Conformationally restricted homophenylalanine analogs
Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Sesenoglu, O; Ulku, D; Arici, C (Wiley, 2004-01-01)
Starting from simple aromatic aldehydes and acetylfuran, (E)-1-(furan-2-yl)-3-arylprop-2-en-1-ones (2) were synthesized in high yields. Cyclopropanation of the C=C bond with trimethylsulfoxonium iodide (Me3SO+I-) furnished (furan-2-yl)(2-arylcyclopropyl)methanones 3 in 90-97% yields. Selective conversion of cyclopropyl ketones to their (E)- and (Z)-oxime ethers 5 and oxazaborolidine-catalyzed stercoselective reduction of the C-N bond followed by separation of the formed diastereoisomers, furnished (2-arylcy...
Chemistry of the benzotropone endoperoxides and their conversion into tropolone derivatives: Unusual endoperoxide rearrangements
Guney, M; Dastan, A; Balcı, Metin (Wiley, 2005-01-01)
The chemistry of two bicyclic endoperoxides, obtained by photooxygenation of 2,3-benzotropone (= 5H-benzocyclohepten-5-one 5) and of its ethyl carboxylate derivative 15, was investigated with the aim of synthesizing the respective benzotropolone derivatives. The reaction of the endoperoxide 10 derived from 5 with thiourea gave the desired benzotropolone, i.e., 6-hvdroxy-5H-benzocyclohepten-5-one (11), in high yield (Scheme 1). On the other hand, the endoperoxide 16 derived from the ethyl carboxylate derivat...
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...
Novel enantioselective synthesis of both enantiomers of furan-2-yl Amines and amino acids
Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Sesemoglu, O; Ulku, D; Arici, C (Wiley, 2003-01-01)
A new enantioselective synthesis of furan-2-yl amines and amino acids is described, in which the key step is the oxazaborolidine-catalyzed enantioselective reduction of O-benzyl (E)- and (Z)-furan-2-yl ketone oximes to the corresponding chiral amines. The chirality of the furan-2-yl amines is fully controlled by the appropriate choice of the geometrical isomer of the O-benzyl oxime. Oxidation of the furan ring furnished amino acids in high yields.
