Methylation of 3', 5'-di-O-trityluridine (I) gave a mixture of two compounds, which was detritylated and then separated to give N
3, 2'-O-dimethyluridine (V) and 2'-O-methyluridine (VI). After treatment of the above mixture with ethanolic ammonia, the reaction products were detritylated and separated to give V and 2'-O-methyl-cytidine (VII). By a similar method 3'-O-methyl nucleosides were obtained from 2', 5'-di-O-trityluridine (II). The relative rates of acidic hydrolysis of uridine, VI, and 3'-O-methyluridine have been determined and were shown to obey first order kinetics. Introduction of a methoxyl function at the 2'- or 3'-position of uridine enhances the stability of the glycosyl linkage to acid hydrolysis.

1) The model of absorption of drug in micellar solution from the intestine is proposed. According to this model, the relationship between concentration of the surfactant and absorption rate constant of the drug was derived. The calculated values of the absorption rate constants from the equation were compared with the experimentally observed values.2) The determination of absorption rate constant was carried out by the perfusion of salicylamide solutions containing polysorbate-80 in various concentrations through the rat small intestine in situ. 3) The experimental results indicate that there is a quite agreement between the observed value and the calculated value.

A short step synthesis of estradiol was presented. 1-Vinyl-6-methoxy-1-tetralol (I) was condensed with 2-methyl-1, 3-cyclopentanedione (II)in the presence of Triton B to give dl-3-methoxy-8, 14-secoestra-1, 3, 5(10), 9-tetraene-14, 17-dione (III) which was converted by phosphorus pentoxide into the known dl-3-methoxyestra-1, 3, 5(10), 8, 14-pentaen-17-one(IV). The ketone (IV) was treated with sodium borohydride in methanol, yielding dl-3-methoxyestra-1, 3, 5(10), 8, 14-pentaen-17β-ol(V). Catalytic hydrogenation of this compound over Raney nickel was found to be stereospecific, yielding dl-3-methoxyestra-1, 3, 5, (10), 8-tetraen-17β-ol(VI). This compound was subjected to K-NH
3reduction to give dl-estradiol 3-methyl ether (VII).Racemic V was resolved through its 17 l-menthoxyacetate and d-estradiol 3-methyl ether obtained by the above series of reactions was identical with the material of natural origin. dl-Equilenin 3-methyl ether was prepared from dl-3-methoxyestra-1, 3, 5(10), 8-tetraen-17β-ol (VI) by oxidation with Jones' reagent at one step.

During the course of the synthesis of 18-methylestradiol 3-methyl ether, steric effect caused by the methyl group at 18-position was observed. It was found that ethylenediamine was a good solvent for the ethynylation reaction of the hindered ketone. Racemic and optically active 17β-hydroxy-13β, 17α-diethylgon-4-en-3-one were synthesized from 1-vinyl-6-methoxy-1-tetralol and 2-ethyl-1, 3-cyclopentanedion. The dextrorotatory diethylgonenone as well as the corresponding racemic diethylgonenone showed strong anabolic activities, whereas the levorotatory compound had no biological activity.

The steric effect of the 13-isopropyl group over 17-position was observed in every kind of reactions in this series. Both II and dl-17α-ethyl-18, 18-dimethyl-19-nortestosterone (XX) showed almost no anabolic and androgenic activity.

Degradations of allosecurinine (III) gave the N-acetyl amino-lactone (IX), lactam-car-binol C (XIII), quinolizidine C (XVI), tetrahydroallosecurinine (XVIII) and compound (XIX). Identifications of the former three compounds (IX), (XIII) and (XVI) with the corresponding synthetic specimens provided a definite proof for the relative configuration of allose-curinine (III).

α-Ben-zyloxycarbonyl-D-phenylalanyl-N
G-nitro-D-arginine served as a key intermediate for the synthesis of these isomers. Melanocyte-stimulating activities of these compounds were examined using the frog-skin from Rana pipiens. It was found that II possessed the activity identical to that of L-histidyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-arginyl-L-tryptophylglycine (I). The peptides (III) and (IV) were both inactive.
