The cycloaddition reaction of 7-substituted 5H-benzocycloheptenes with singlet oxygen and the chemistry of the obtained endoperoxides were investigated. Reaction of carboethoxy-substituted endoperoxide with NEt3 gave a mixture of products; hydroxyketone, diketone, and carboethoxy-substituted keto-enol tautomers, whereas the reaction of methyl-substituted endoperoxide only formed a diketone under the same reaction conditions. Thermolysis, thiourea, and CoTPP reactions of the endoperoxides were also studied. The reaction mechanism and electronic effect of substituents were discussed.

Mechanistic Insights into the Reaction of N-Propargylated Pyrrole- and Indole-Carbaldehyde with Ammonia, Alkyl Amines, and Branched Amines: A Synthetic and Theoretical Investigation
Sari, Ozlem; Seybek, Ali Fatih; Kaya, Serap; Menges, Nurettin; ERDEM, SAFİYE; BALCI, METİN (Wiley, 2019-09-01)
The reaction of pyrrole- and indole-carbaldehydes having a propargyl group attached to the nitrogen atom with various amines was studied. The reaction with ammonia formed pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine and pyrazino[1,2-a]indole while the reaction with alkylamines such as methyl, ethyl, hexyl, and benzylamines formed the corresponding pyrazinone derivatives. Unexpectedly, the reaction with allylamine and propargylamine formed pyrazine derivatives in which the allyl and propargyl groups were removed from the molecule...
Cettaertalyst-Free Hydrogenation of Alkenes and Alkynes with Hydrazine in the Presence of Oxygen
Menges, Nurettin; Balcı, Metin (Georg Thieme Verlag KG, 2014-03-17)
A series of alkenes and alkynes was subjected to reduction with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol in the presence of oxygen. An efficient method was developed for the reduction of C-C double bonds and C-C triple bonds with diimide, generated in situ from hydrazine hydrate by oxidation with oxygen. The reduction process proceeded for 24-48 hours with high chemoselectivity and excellent yields. This reduction procedure offers synthetic advantages over metal-catalyzed hydrogenation as well as other systems.
Substituent Effects on the Ring-Opening Mechanism of Lithium Bromocyclopropylidenoids to Allenes
AZİZOĞLU, AKIN; Balcı, Metin; Mieusset, Jean-Luc; Brinker, Udo H. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2008-11-07)
The ring-opening reactions of lithium bromocyclopropylidenoids to allenes have been investigated computationally at the B3LYP/6-31 G(d) level of theory. Formally, two pathways can be considered: the reaction may either proceed in a concerted fashion or stepwise with the intermediacy of a free cyclopropylidene. In both cases, the loss of the bromide ion determines the kinetic of the reaction. The stability of the reactive intermediate, i.e., the carbene, is dependent on the substituent. Cyclopropylidenes bea...
Room Temperature Photocatalytic Oxidation of Carbon Monoxide Over Pd/TiO2-SiO2 Catalysts
Karakaş, Gürkan (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2013-12-01)
The photocatalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide over TiO2-SiO2 and Pd/TiO2-SiO2 catalysts was studied. The catalyst samples were synthesized by using sol-gel technique coupled with hydrothermal treatment and all samples were hydrothermally treated before calcination in air. The catalyst samples were characterized by XRD, BET and DRIFTS techniques. The photocatalytic activity of the samples was determined by using circulated batch photoreactor coupled with in line gas transmission FTIR cell charged with 2,00...
Development of new synthetic methodologies for the synthesis of unusual isocoumarin and indole derivatives:The chemistry of homophthalic acid
Özcan, Sevil; Balcı, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2007)
Many heterocyclic compounds containing nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur show wide range of physiological activities and their synthesis has always been attracted the interest of chemists. The aim of this research is to develop new synthetic methodologies leading to the synthesis of new derivatives of isocoumarines, indoles, isoquinolines, benzodiazepinones and quinazolines, which have been found to show important biological activities. Starting from homophthalic acid and bishomophthalic acid the corresponding ac...
