In this present paper, we report the efficient, regioselective one-pot synthesis of 5-alkoxy and 5-alkylsulfanylpyrrole-3-carboxylates in high yields via the zinc perchlorate-catalyzed addition of alcohols and thiols to the nitrile carbon of alpha-cyanornethyl-beta-ketoesters followed by annulation. The addition-annulation process is undertaken in aqueous solution to give 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-1H-pyrrole-beta-carboxylates (pyrrolinones) in good yields. These 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-1H-pyrrole-3-carboxylates are also obtained by the hydrolysis of 5-alkoxypyrrole-3-carboxylates.

A novel one-pot, three-component reaction for the synthesis of isocoumarin-condensed pyrazoles
OZCAN, Sevil; Dengiz, Çağatay; DELIOMEROGLU, Murat K.; ŞAHİN, Ertan; BALCI, METİN (Elsevier BV, 2011-03-30)
The one-pot, three-component reaction of substituted homophthalic anhydrides with hydrazine in DMF as solvent and reactant, at reflux temperature, afforded isochromeno[3,4-c]pyrazole-5(2H)-one derivatives in high yields. The mechanism and roles of the substrates were investigated and it was found that cyclic hydrazides were formed as intermediates.

ERGUN, Merve; Dengiz, Çağatay; OZER, Merve Sinem; ŞAHİN, Ertan; BALCI, METİN (Elsevier BV, 2014-09-02)
We report herein the synthesis of a novel class of compounds, ethyl 4-oxo-4H-furo[3,2-c]pyran-6-yl carbonate, (7E)-7-[(dimethylamino)methylene]-4H-furo[3,2-c]pyran-4,6(7H)-dione, 5-oxo-N-phenyl-2,5-dihydro-4H-furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-4-carboxamide,and 5-oxo-N-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-thieno[3,2-b] pyrrole-4-carboxamide starting from the corresponding acid derivatives. Intramolecular cyclization in the presence of thionyl chloride formed the target fused ring systems. Additional transformation was seen in the cycliza...
A novel synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles and isoxazoles
KIVRAK, Arif; Zora, Metin (Elsevier BV, 2014-01-28)
A novel synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles and isoxazoles is described by utilizing the reactions between amidoximes and alpha,beta-alkynic aldehydes and/or ketones. Conjugate addition products, obtained from amidoximes and alpha,beta-alkynic aldehydes and/or ketones, afford 1,2,4-oxadiazoles and isoxazoles when treated with bases and acids, respectively. 1,2,4-Oxadiazoles can also be synthesized directly from amidoximes and alpha,beta-alkynic aldehydes in a one-pot manner under basic conditions. The reactions ...
An effective new synthesis of 2-aminopyrrole-4-carboxylates
Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Emrullahoglu, M (Elsevier BV, 2005-10-31)
Efficient syntheses of 2-aminopyrroles are presented starting from beta-dicarbonyl compounds, bromoacetonitrile, and amines. Alkylation of beta-dicarbonyl compounds with bromoacetonitrile furnished alpha-cyanomethyl-beta-dicarbonyl compounds. The condensation reaction of alpha-cyanomethyl-beta-dicarbonyl compounds with amines catalyzed by p-TsOH affords the corresponding enamines in good yields. Base catalyzed cyclization via the addition of an amine moiety to the carbon-nitrogen triple bond of nitrile furn...
Synthesis of chiral acetoxy lactones via the Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of cyclic aromatic acetoxy ketones
Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Aybey, Asuman (Elsevier BV, 2008-12-01)
The alpha-acetoxylation of indanones and tetralones by using Mn(OAc)(3) followed by the enzyme catalyzed kinetic resolution of acetoxy ketones furnished both of the enantiomers of alpha-acetoxy ketones in good chemical and optical yields. The Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of alpha-acetoxy ketones with m-CPBA, CF(3)SO(3)H, and CH(2)O(2), at rt gives the corresponding lactones without racemization. The acetoxy ketone moiety migrates selectively in order to form lactones. The mild hydrolysis of lactones affords ph...
