A new and efficient method for the synthesis of 6-chloro-substituted 2-methylene-2,3-dihydro-1,4-oxazepines has been demonstrated. Upon treatment with N-chlorosuccinimide in acetonitrile, N-propargylic beta-enaminones underwent chlorination to afford alpha-chlorinated N-propargylic beta-enaminones, which was then subjected to electrophilic cyclization with zinc chloride in refluxing chloroform to yield 6-chloro-2-methylene-2,3-dihydro-1,4-oxazepines. It was shown for the first time that on N-propargylic beta-enaminone systems, alpha-chlorination exclusively preponderates over the formation of chloronium ion. The method was found to be general for a diversity of N-propargylic beta-enaminones and tolerated the presence of a wide range of aryl, heteroaryl and alkyl groups with electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents. The method was also applicable as the one-pot two-step process without isolating the intermediate alpha-chlorinated N-propargylic beta-enaminones. This operationally easy method may provide a rapid entry to a library of highly functionalized 6-chloro-2-methylene-2,3-dihydro-1,4-oxazepines with potential medicinal applications for human health.

Synthesis of thienopyridinones via hydrazide-alkyne cyclization
Cokol, Nalan Korkmaz; Erden, Kübra; Gunay, Furkan Melih; Dengiz, Çağatay; Balci, Metin (Elsevier BV, 2020-05-08)
A novel and efficient method for the synthesis of thieno[3,2-c]pyridinones have been developed. The synthetic strategy relies on the synthesis of halothiophene esters utilized as substrates for subsequent Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions. Hydrazinolysis of corresponding esters and following hydrazidealkyne ring closure transformations resulted in target thienopyridinones in good yields. It is also shown that pure hydrazine monohydrate is required to facilitate the hydrazide formations.
Selective one-pot synthesis of substituted pyrrole-3-phosphonates from alpha-cyanomethyl-beta-ketoesters
Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Tural, Servet (Elsevier BV, 2007-05-07)
A one-step synthesis of 5-alkoxypyrrole-3-phosphonates is presented starting from suitable alpha-cyanomethyl-beta-ketophosphonates. The key step in the synthesis involves a one-pot addition and heteroannulation sequence. The zinc perchlorate-catalyzed addition of alcohols to the nitrile carbon of alpha-cyanomethyl- beta-ketophosphonates followed by annulation furnished 5-alkoxypyrrole-3-phosphonates. The addition-annulation process is carried out in the presence of water and 4,5-dihydro-5-oxo-1H-pyrrole-3-p...
Synthesis of the possible carcinogenic dihydrodiol and diol epoxide of phthalazine
Ozer, G; Saracoglu, N; Menzek, A; Balcı, Metin (Elsevier BV, 2005-02-07)
Inverse-Diels-Alder reaction of dimethyl 1,2,4,5 -tetrazine-3,6-dicarboxylate with benzene cis-diol gave dihydrodiol coninini 2 the 1,4-dihydropyridazine ring. Attempts at oxidation of the dihydropyridazine ring with PIFA and MnO2, resulted in the formation of 5- and 5,6-dihydroxy-phthalazine derivatives. The oxidation of the dihydropyfidazine ring was achieved by way of photooxygenation. The phthalazine type dihydrodiol is unstable and easily undergoes aromatization. The Diels-Alder reaction of tetrazine w...
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 3-[(4-Nitrophenyl)thio]-Substituted 4-Methylene-1-pyrrolines from N-Propargylic beta-Enaminones
Korkmaz, Esra; Zora, Metin (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2020-04-03)
A facile and efficient method for the synthesis of 3-[(4-nitrophenyl)thio]-substituted 4-methylene-1-pyrrolines is described. When treated with 4-nitrobenzenesulfenyl chloride in refluxing acetonitrile, N-propargylic beta-enaminones produced alpha-sulfenylated N-propargylic beta-enaminones, which, in the presence of sodium hydride or cesium carbonate, underwent nucleophilic cyclization to afford 4-methylene-3-[(4-nitrophenyl)thio]-1-pyrrolines in good to high yields. It was shown for the first time that on ...
