The efficient synthesis of gala-, epi-, neo-, and muco-quercitols and some brominated quercitols starting from cyclohexa-1,4-diene is reported. Treatment of the dibromide, obtained by the addition of bromine to cyclohexa-1,4-diene, with m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) yielded the dibromoepoxide, which was successfully converted to the desired dibromodiol by treatment with sulfuric acid. The resulting diol was reacted with 2,2-dimethoxypropane to give the dibromoketal. Hydrogen bromide elimination with NaOMe gave the key compound methoxyketal, rel-(3aS,5R,7aS)-5-methoxy-2,2-dimethyl-3a,4,5,7a-tetrahydrobenzo[d][1,3]dioxole. The second key compound, an isomeric methoxyketal, was prepared by ketalization of 4,5-dibromocyclohexane-1,2-diol with dimethoxypropane followed by the reaction with NaOMe. Deprotection of ketal functionality with sulfuric acid followed by acetylation with acetic anhydride in pyridine resulted in the formation of diacetate rel-(1S,2R,5R)-5-methoxycyclohex-3-ene-1,2-diyl diacetate. Epoxidation of the double bonds in isomeric methoxy diacetates and cis-hydroxylation followed by epoxide-opening and deprotection resulted in the formation of various quercitol derivatives. The inhibition activity of eleven quercitols, methoxyquercitols and bromoquercitols was tested against alpha-glycosidase.

Stereoselective Synthesis of Bishomo-inositols as Glycosidase Inhibitors
Baran, Arif; Balcı, Metin (2009-01-02)
For the synthesis of various bishomo-inositol derivatives, 1,3,3a,7a-tetrahydro-2-benzofuran was used as the key compound. For further functionalization of the diene unit, the diene was subjected to photooxygenation, epoxidation, and cis-hydroxylation reactions. The endoperoxide linkage was cleaved by thiourea. The remaining double bond was subjected to epoxidation and cis-hydroxylation reactions. The epoxide rings and tetrahydrofuran rings formed were opened by acid-catalyzed reaction with sulfamic acid.

Monodisperse nickel nanoparticles supported on SiO2 as an effective catalyst for the hydrolysis of ammonia-borane
Metin, Onder; Özkar, Saim; Sun, Shouheng (2010-09-01)
Monodisperse Ni nanoparticles (NPs) have been synthesized by the reduction of nickel(II) acetylacetonate with the borane-tributylamine complex in a mixture of oleylamine and oleic acid. These Ni NPs are an active catalyst for the hydrolysis of the ammonia-borane (AB, H3N center dot BH3) complex under ambient conditions and their activities are dependent on the chemical nature of the oxide support that they were deposited on. Among various oxides (SiO2, Al2O3, and CeO2) tested, SiO2 was found to enhance Ni N...
Stereoselective synthesis of deoxycarbaheptopyranose derivatives: 5a-carba-6-deoxy-alpha-DL-galacto-heptopyranose and 5a-carba-6-deoxy-alpha-DL-gulo-heptopyranose
Kishali, Nurhan Horasan; Dogan, Dilem; ŞAHİN, Ertan; GÜNEL, ASLIHAN; KARA, Yunus; Balcı, Metin (2011-02-11)
Two new deoxycarbaheptopyranoses, 5a-carba-6-deoxy-alpha-DL-galacto-heptopyranose and 5a-carba-6-deoxy-alpha-DL-gulo-heptopyranose were prepared starting from cyclohexa-1,4-diene. The addition of dichloroketene to cyclohexa-1,4-diene followed by the subsequent reductive elimination and Baeyer-Villiger oxidation in turn led to the formation of a bicyclic lactone. Reduction of the lactone moiety followed by acetylation gave a diacetate with cis-configuration. The introduction of additional acetate functionali...
Stereoselective synthesis of optically active cyclitol precursors via chemoenzymatic method and synthesis of a nucleoside precursor
Oğuzkaya, Funda; Tanyeli, Cihangir; Department of Chemistry (2006)
α'-acetoxylation of α,ß-unsaturated cyclic ketones was adjusted via Mn(OAc)3 in regioselective manner. Then, PLE hydrolysis was carried out so as to afford enantiomerically enriched α'-acetoxylated and α'-hydroxylated cyclic compounds. From our knowledge about the literature and previous works dealing with α'-hydroxylated products which are easily racemized, protection was directly adjusted via acetylation so as to prevent this possibility. Resulting enantiomerically enriched products were subjected to Upjo...
Stereospecific synthesis of a new class of aminocyclitol with the conduramine D-2 configuration
Kelebekli, Latif; Celik, Murat; Sahin, Ertan; Kara, Yunus; Balcı, Metin (Elsevier BV, 2006-09-25)
A new aminocyclitol derived from bicyclo[4.2.0(1,6)]octane was synthesized starting from cyclooctatetraene. Photooxygenation of trans-7,8-diacetoxy-bicyclo[4.2.0]octa-2,4-diene afforded a bicyclic endoperoxide. Reduction of the endoperoxide with thiourea followed by a palladium-catalyzed ionization/cyclization reaction gave an oxazolidinone derivative. Oxidation of the double bond in the oxazolidinone with KNlnO(4) followed by acetylation gave the oxazolidinone-tetraacetate whose exact configuration was det...
