The synthesis of natural products 2-(2,3-dibromo-4,5-dihydroxyphenyl)acetic acid (1) and 2-(2,6-dibromo-3,5-dihydroxyphenyl)acetic acid (2) and as well as their derivatives 25 and 26 were carried out by substitution, hydrolysis and demethylation reactions of the corresponding four benzyl bromides. The antioxidant potentials of benzylic acid-derived bromophenols were, for the first time, appraised by several outstanding bioanalytical methods. Besides these, we estimated the antioxidant effects which were studied using the methods of DPPH·, ABTS·+ scavenging activities, ferric (Fe3+) and cupric (Cu2+) ions and Fe3+-TPTZ reducing capacities. Benzylic acid-derived bromophenols were found as effective DPPH·, and …

Known 1,6-di(thiophen-2-yl)hexane-1,6-dione (2) and novel 1,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)heptane-1,7-dione (4) were obtained from the reactions of thiophene with the corresponding diacyl chlorides. Furthermore, compounds with furan and pyrrole units in place of thiophene units in compound 2 were obtained in the same way. Bromination of 2 and 4 gave bromides regioselectively. The reaction of each of the compounds 2 and 4 in HOAc medium yielded cyclocondensation products. In total, four known and eleven novel compounds were synthesized.
