Thiamic acid, 3-(1, 2-dicarboxyethyl)-4-methyl-5-(2-hydroxyethyl) thiazolium chloride, and an inner salt of its hydroxide were prepared from aspartic acid and 3-chloro-5-hydroxy-2-pentanone via thiazolidine-2-thione, tetrahydrofuro [2, 3-d] thiazole-2(3H)-thione, and 4-thiazoline-2-thione. Some related compounds are also synthesized. The structure of thiamic acid was confirmed by their ultraviolet spectra.

On the basis of chemical behavior and infrared data, we prefer the correct structures of these two being 3, 5-diacety 1-2H-pyran-2, 4, 6 (3H, 5H)- trione (V) and 1-phenyl-3, 5-diacety1-2, 4, 6-piperidinetrione (VI) respectively.

Major metabolic pathways of two series of alkylaryl ethers, i.e. 2-alkoxy-5-nitro-anisoles and alkyl p-nitrophenyl ethers, were investigated in vivo with rabbits. It was confirmed that aryl ethers of methyl or ethyl were dealkylated quickly, but of butyl or of isoamyl only with slow rate and metabolized mainly through penultimate hydroxylation pathway. Propylaryl ethers, on the other hand, behaved very differently, producing ω-oxidation product together with dealkylation and penultimate hydroxylation products. Demethylation rate of the methoxyl group attached to the meta position of nitro-substituent in 2-alkoxy-5-nitroanisoles was held nearly constant over a series of compounds.

As part of the systematic studies on imidazole derivatives as chelating agents, four azoimidazoles having an ortho-hydroxy group, a dimethylamino group, or both groups were prepared from 4(5)-amino-5(4)-methylimidazole as a diazo component and 2-naphthol, p-methoxyphenol, N, N-dimethylaniline, and N, N-dimethyl-m-aminophenol as coupling components : 1-[4(5)-methyl-5(4)-imidazolylazo]-2-naphthol ; 2-[4(5)-methyl-5(4)-imidazolylazo]-4-methoxyphenol ; 4(5)-methyl-5(4)-(p-dimethylaminophenylazo) imidazole ; 3-dimethylamino-6-[4(5)-methyl-5(4)-imidazolylazo] phenol. The reactions of the azo derivatives with various metal ions were studied by spot tests in acid, neutral, and alkaline solutions. All the azo derivatives react with metal ions, such as Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Pd(II) and Pb(II), to give intensely colored chelates which are usually extracted into chloroform or iso-amyl alcohol. These results indicate that the azoimidazoles can be used as metallochromic indicators or as extractants for determinations of metal ions by chelatometric titrations or by solvent extractions.

Spectrophotometric and potentiometric investigations of the acid-base equilibria of the following azoimidazoles in aqueous media were carried out with a view to get some basic knowledge for their applications to chelatometric titrations as metallochromic indicators and for the calculations of the stability constants of their metal chelates : 1-[4(5)-methyl-5(4)-imidazolylazo]-2-naphthol ; 2-[4(5)-methyl-5(4)-imidazolylazo]-4-meth-oxyphenol; 4(5)-methyl-5(4)-(p-dimethylaminophenylazo) imidazole ; 3-dimethylamino-6-[4(5)-methyl-5(4)-imidazolylazo] phenol. pH Titrations of these azoimidazoles in 50v/v% dioxane-H

Studies on the absorption and excretion of CHS-Na in rabbit and human are reported in this paper. The urinary excretion rate of CHS-Na was determined after oral administration to rabbit, and the absorption rate was calculated from the excretion data. And the absorption of CHS-Na was studied after oral administration with the compounds such as caffeine, theophylline, theobromine, albumin, casein, and citric acid, and it was suggested that the absorption of CHS-Na was accelerated in the presence of caffeine and citric acid.

The absorption of CHS-Na, saccharin, or dulcin from the stomach and the small intestine of the anesthetized rat was measured. CHS-Na was very poorly absorbed, while dulcin showed the greatest absorption rate. The absorpton of CHS-Na was considerably reduced in rat and rabbit anesthetized with pentobarbital . The same results were obtained in the absorption of tolazoline, but were not in that of salicylamide. These results suggest that the decreasing in the absorption of CHS-Na or tolazoline in situ depends mainly upon the anesthetic effect of pentobarbital. And the absorption of CHS-Na was measured in the presence of other compounds. The samll intestinal absorption of CHS-Na was measured in the presence of other compounds. The small intestinal absorption of CHS-Na was accelerated by the addition of caffeine or citric acid to it.

From human urine, the metabolite was isolated as a benzoyl derivative and was quantitatively estimated. In rabbit, however, any metabolite of CHS-Na was not found in our experiment.

Since removal of benzyl group by hydrolysis had already afforded magnolamine (I), a modified total synthesis of stereoisomeric mixture of magnolamine has been accomplished.

Ethyl acetate was found to be an excellent solvent for this oxidation. Removal of protective groups from III afforded crystalline 3-ketoglucuronic acid (VII). The intermediate substance (III) underwent stereo-selective reduction by the action of lithium aluminum hydride to produce 1, 2-O-isopropylidene-D-allofuranose.

Periodate oxidation of 3-ketoglucuronic acid indicated the presence of hemiacetal ring structure and in consequence the uronic acid was assigned as 3-keto-D-glucopy-ranuronic acid (III), which on treatment with cation resin in methanol gave methyl furanoside (V). Enolization of 3-ketoglucuronic acid between C-2 and C-3 was confirmed by conversion of the Keto-acid into the corresponding enol ether, namely methyl 3-O-methyl-D-glucopyranoenediol-(2, 3)-uronate (VIII). Equilibrium between keto-and enol from of this keto-sugar in an aqueous solution was, however, found to be inclined predominantly to the keto-form (III) by means of polarography.

Hydrogenolysis of N-acylaminomethyl and additionally N-arylsulfonamidomethyl compounds attached to a variety of amines, not only under conditions with Raney nickel catalyst under high hydrogen pressure, but also, in some cases, under those with palladium-on-charcoal catalyst under ordinary hydrogen pressure, was investigated in a view of the factors affecting the rate. Solvent and variation in the structure were recognized to be major rate-determining factors. Comparison of the rates of a large number of the compounds indicates that the hydrogenolysis is more facilitated with increase of electron density at amine nitrogen and decrease of that at each acylamino and sulfonamido nitrogen. The reaction scope was established and the application in N-methylation of amine was generalized.

Some derivatives of L-ascorbic acid (L-AsA), including a monoester of the endiol group, were studied for their antiscorbutic activity in guinea pigs. Among them 2-O-benzoyl-L-AsA was found to have almost the same activity as that of L-AsA, i.e. even the oral dose equimolar to 1mg. of L-AsA/animal/day might be effective to prevent the development of scurvy. 2, 6-Di-O-benzoyl-L-AsA and 3, 5, 6-tri-O-benzoyl-L-AsA were shown to be less active antiscorbutically, may be one-tenth or below, than L-AsA.
