Free radical reactions have become increasingly important, as well as a very attractive tool, in organic synthesis within the last two decades, due to their powerful, selective, specific, and mild reaction abilities. Mn(OAc)(3) mediated oxidative free radical reactions have been extensively developed in the last twenty years. Numerous regio-, chemo-, and stereoselective synthetic methods have been developed in both inter- and intramolecular reactions, and have detailed the progress of Mn(OAc)., mediated oxidative free radical reactions since the end of the 19(th) century. The new literature about the new synthetic methods on Mn(OAC)(3) mediated carbon-carbon bond formation and carbon-oxygen bond formation reactions has not been extensively reviewed. The present paper summarizes the recent developments in oxidative free radical reactions mediated by Mn(OAc)(3.) Mn(OAc)(3) mediated reactions of conjugated systems (e.g., alkenes, alkynes, 1,3-alkadienes, 1,3-alkadiynes, 1-alken-3-ynes) with beta-dicarbonyl compounds, Mn(OAc)(3) mediated alkylation, such as the oxidative addition of an aldehyde or ketone to alkenes, Mn(OAc)3 mediated free-radical cyclization of alkenes with active methylene compounds in the presence of oxygen to afford the cyclic peroxides; lactone synthesis by the Mn(OAc)3 mediated oxidative addition of carboxylic acids to alkenes, Mn(OAc)(3) mediated cyclization of alpha-(methythio)acetamides, enamides, and beta-keto carboxamides to afford cyclic products,

The synthesis of hydroxymethyl containing cyclitol derivatives
Kaya, Nihal; Balcı, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2009)
Cyclitols have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years because of diverse biological activities exhibited by them and also synthetic usefulness in the synthesis of other natural compounds or pharmaceuticals. The presence of hydroxymethyl groups in many cyclitols units building natural products is also attracting a remarkable attention. In this study, novel synthetic strategies leading to cyclitol derivatives including hydroxymethyl groups were investigated and the syntheses of bis-homoinositol d...
Addition of carbonyl compounds to the cyclic olefins : synthesis of cyclitols
Altun, Yasemin; Balcı, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2008)
Cyclitols have attracted a great deal of attention in recent years owing to biological activities exhibited by them and also their usefulness in the synthesis of other natural products and pharmaceuticals. Carbasugars are also a derivative of cyclitols and they are cyclic monosaccharide analogues which posses CH2OH group in their structure. In this study, novel synthetic strategies leading to cyclitol derivatives were investigated and the synthesis of tetraol (72) and pentaol (73) derivatives containing CH2...
Use of NMR relaxometry to assess physicochemical characteristics of seeds and grains
Ünal, Kübra; Öztop, Halil Mecit; Alpas, Hami; Department of Food Engineering (2022-8)
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) relaxometry is a widely used characterization method for the analysis of physiological and biochemical changes in a huge variety of samples. Time domain NMR (TD-NMR) relaxometry provides structural analysis at low magnetic fields. It is basically relies on the relaxation times of proton signals coming from the entire sample. Thus, it provides quantification of water absorption and analyzing its distribution within the biological systems. In this dissertation, plant tissues a...
Bicyclic strained allenes : incorporation of an allene unit into alpha-pinene and benzonorbornadiene
Kılbaş, Benan; Balcı, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2009)
The synthesis of cyclic allenes with eight or less skeletal C-atoms, known as highly strained organic compounds, has for the past decades attracted increasing interest. The first part of study describes an investigation aimed at the incorporation of an allene unit into a natural compound, being α-pinene, by using β-elimination method. The two double-bond isomers 310 and 299b were synthesized as key compounds. Treatment of 310 with t-BuOK resulted in the formation of ketone 308 and diene 313. For the formati...
Synthesis of ferrocenyl cycloheptadienones
Açıkgöz, Canet; Zora, Metin; Department of Chemistry (2005)
Synthesis of seven-membered ring systems such as cycloheptadienones has attracted a great deal of attention in organic chemistry since they are present in a variety of biologically important molecules. Incorporation of the essential structures of such compounds with a ferrocene moiety instead of an aryl group could provide subtances with enhanced antitumor activities since some ferrocene derivatives have already proved to be active against a number of tumors. To develop a ferrocenyl-substituted seven-member...
