New Synthetic Methodology For Construction Of The 3,4-Dihydroquinolin-2-One Skeleton, Çağatay Dengi̇z, Meti̇n Balci

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

We hereby report a new method for preparation of 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(2H)-one starting from the methyl 2-(2-carboxyethyl)benzoic acid. The acid functionality, adjacent to the methylene, was regiospecifically converted to the desired methyl ester and the remaining acid functionality was transferred into acyl azide. Curtius rearrangement of acyl azide followed by trapping with aniline and alcohols provided the corresponding urea and urethane derivatives. Hydrolysis of methyl ester groups gave the acids. Ring closure in the presence of thionyl chloride resulted in the formation of the 3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(2H)-one skeleton.

Synthesis Of Fused Tetrazolone Derivatives, Sevi̇l Özcan, Zeynep Ekmekçi̇, Berk Müjde, Meti̇n Balci Jan 2013

Synthesis Of Fused Tetrazolone Derivatives, Sevi̇l Özcan, Zeynep Ekmekçi̇, Berk Müjde, Meti̇n Balci

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

New fused tetrazolone derivatives were synthesized using homophthalic and maleic anhydrides. Treatment of anhydrides with trimethylsilyl azide opened the lactone rings and formed the corresponding intermediates, which bore 1,3-dipole and dipolarophile functionalities in ortho positions. The intermediates partially underwent internal 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to produce fused tetrazolone derivatives. When the carbonyl groups in anhydride were not conjugated with any double bond, then a triazine-fused tetrazolone derivative was formed.


Molecular Mechanism Of Diels--Alder Reaction Between (E)-3,3,3-Trichloro-1-Nitropropene And Cyclopentadiene: B3lyp/6-31g(D) Computational Study, Radomir Jasinski, Andrzej Baranski Jan 2013

Molecular Mechanism Of Diels--Alder Reaction Between (E)-3,3,3-Trichloro-1-Nitropropene And Cyclopentadiene: B3lyp/6-31g(D) Computational Study, Radomir Jasinski, Andrzej Baranski

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Analysis of reactivity indexes supports the polar character of the reaction between (E)-3,3,3-trichloro-1-nitropropene and cyclopentadiene. This is confirmed by the analysis of electronic properties of transition complexes involved in the reaction paths using the B3LYP/6-31G(d) algorithm. The transition state's asymmetry is large, but it is insufficient to provoke a zwitterionic reaction mechanism. Attempts to find a heterocyclic intermediate 7 in the reaction path ultimately leading to 5-endo-nitro-6-exo-trichloromethylnorbornene 3 have been unsuccessful.

Dft Study Of Tautomerism In Aklavinone, Burhan Lemi̇ Türker Jan 2013

Dft Study Of Tautomerism In Aklavinone, Burhan Lemi̇ Türker

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Aklavinone has an anthraquinone-based chromophore and its backbone highly resembles the kernel of some anthracycline antibiotics that possess anticancer activity, e.g., daunomycin. Since aklavinone's structure possesses many --OH groups and 2 keto groups, it is quite probable that certain tautomeric equilibria may occur. Presently, aklavinone prototropic tautomers possessing embedded anthraquinone moiety have been investigated quantum chemically by using density functional theory at the levels of RB3LYP/6-31G(d) and RB3LYP/6-31G(d,p). Additionally, IR spectra of the tautomers were calculated. Moreover, the phenolate ions obtained from the most stable tautomer in water were considered, and the protonation of this tautomer at various possible sites …
