Structural relationship between demycarosyl-leucomycin-A
3 proposed through X-ray crystallography by Hiramatsu, et al. and leucomycin-A
3 was examined, and it was found that the hydroxyl group at the C-9 position on lactone of the latter underwent allylic rearrangement being transferred to the C-13 position in the former on mild hydrolysis of the latter with dilute hydrochloric acid. On the other hand, isoleucomycin-A
3, whose hydroxyl group at the C-13 position was transferred from C-9 in leucomycin-A
3 without liberation of mycarose portion, was obtained by warm acid treatment of leucomycin-A
3. Configuration on the C-9 position was determined by applying the benzoate or Mills' rule to leucomycin-A
3 and, from the present and previously reported results, the absolute structure of leucomycin-A
3 was elucidated.

The low temperature behavior of solutions of simple substances and pharmaceuticals was studied. The authors found noticeable changes in the macroscopic appearance of solutions during freezing of some substances which exhibited the eutectic behavior. Appearance changes were classified into four types : I) no change, II) slight increase in opacity, III) very noticeable formation of clear white spots due to eutectic crystallization with very slow rate of growth of spots, and IV) formation of spots with high rate of growth. The eutectic temperatures (T
e) were obtained from the temperature at which spots faded or disappeared. The collapsing temperatures (T
c) were also obtained from the observation during freeze drying, of the temperatures above which the frozen layer of the solution became puffed or collapsed. The electrical resistances of the specimens were measured during cooling and rewarming. These data were compared with each other to discuss the meaning of the changes in appearance during freezing and drying as follows. The formation of spots was due to crowds of eutectic crystal structures. T
c was observed at T
e for the substances which exhibited the eutectic behavior, and T
c for the substances which froze solid but in supercooled or super-eutectic states was supposed to be the temperature above which the frozen solution lost solidity.

In order to get useful information regarding the freeze drying process, macroscopic appearance during freezing and drying were observed on solutions of amino acids exhibiting eutectic behavior. The eutectic crystal structures were observed to take the form of white, densely opaque spots. The velocity of the eutectic crystallization was roughly estimated from the increase of the spots' size and number. The electrical resistance of the solution during freezing was also measured. There existed an optimum temperature range to promote the eutectic crystallization for each solute. Freeze drying of these substances produced very characteristic surfaces and interiors leaving behind the solute crystal portion of the eutectic crystal mixtures. The dried sample had a more concentrated shell, namely, considerable differences in concentration occured between the surface layer and the bulk.

The apparent specific volume (ASV) and the breaking strength (BS) of mixed systems were investigated in relation to the filling properties of the systems. Two inflection points were given on the BS vs. water content curves and on the ASV vs. water content curves. The air permeability method was adopted to examine the relationship between two inflection points and two critical points C
1 and C
2. The two inflection points were supported to be two critical points, because they were nearly consistent with those on the mean capillary diameter vs. water content curves. The changes of the extrusion weight and of the properties of mixed systems, with the lapse of time in the process of granulations, were discussed in relation to the changes of the particle compactness and of the breaking strength of mixed systems. In the extrusion type granulator, mixtures may first be compressed between basket wall and extruder, and then the powder bed may be deformed to be pushed out through holes in the basket wall by continued extrusive force.

The effect of properties of binder solutions on the apparent specific volume and the breaking strength of solid/binder solution mixed systems was investigated in relation to the filling properties of the mixed system. By the effect of additives, the apparent specific volume vs. amount of binder solution curves did not give a characteristic change as compared with the curve of powder/water mixed system. The work of adhesion between powder and binder solution decreased, the minimum apparent specific volume in Funicular-2 region decreased. The breaking strength of mixed systems may be composed of interparticle friction and interparticle adhesion force (tensile strength) by liquid pendular ring. The tensile strength (S) calculated from the equation S=(1-ε)σ AB/d
pg was compared with the strength found. It was supposed that the breaking strengths of mixed systems are multiplicable of interparticle friction and tensile strength. The higher the viscosity of binder solution, the larger the tensile strength. The effect of viscosity was minimized efficiently by the addition of detergent. In spite of the effect of properties of binder solutions, the critical points C
1 and C
2 were determined on the mean capillary diameter vs. amount of binder solution curves. It was also found that the extrusion weight of granules through extrusion type granulator was inversely proportional to the breaking strength of the mixed system.

The first ionization potential, I
P, of 10 aniline derivatives was estimated from the charge-transfer absorption spectra arizing in the 510-560 mμ region due to their interactions with p-chloranil. The relation of I
p to the rate of enzymatic acetylation, V
Ac, indicated that V
Ac, and possibly affinity to the enzyme, increased with an increase in charge-transfer ability of the anilines. But it was also found that V
Ac became greater with an increase in basicity of the anilines ; this was compatible with the theory for the usual organic acylation. Accordingly, whether or not the charge-transfer was actually concerned with the enzymatic reaction could not be determined from this study, except from the standpoint that organic ionic reactions were generally involved in the transfer of charge. The relation of I
P to pK
a was theoretically discussed.

Mechanism of drug absorption from micellar solution was studied through use of drugs which exist predominantly in micellar phase. Particular systems chosen were vitamin A acetate and vitamin A alcohol-Polysorbate-80. Contrary to the notion that the only form in which the drug penetrate the membrane is free drug, both vitamins, entrapped almost completely in micelles, were absorbed fairly well, but not as such, form the rat large intenstine. Disappearance of the vitamins from the perfusate proceeded by two phases, the rapid (initial 15 minutes perfusion period) and the slow phase (follwing 60 minutes period). In the former, extent of the absorption of the vitamins were dependent on the initial concentration of surface-active agent, whereas in the latter, no such tendency was observed. It was demonstrated that in the very early stage of absorption, vitamins solubilized in micelles are absorved onto the membrane, which being favored by the surface-active agent and in the slow phase, absorption now becomes rate-limited by the partition or release of the vitamins from adsorbed micelles to the mucosal layer of the membrane. Despite the large effective surface area, disappearance in the slow absorptive phase of the vitamins from the solution circulated through the small intestine was smaller compared with the large intestine.

1) Feeding of 5% taurine diet for 14 weeks caused marked reduction of the body weight increase in young mice of a hereditary hyperglycemic obese strain (KK). Exchange of the diet for control accelerated gain of the body weight in these animals for the subsequent 6 weeks. 2) Adult KK mice fed 5% taurine diet for 10 weeks demonstrated a slight but significant decrease of the initial body weight, mainly due to a reduction of the size of the abdominal fat pads, whereas such effects of long-term feeding of taurine were not observed in adult lean (BALB/C) and experimentally obese (GTG) mice. 3) Suppression of development of obesity was also produced in young KK mice by adding taurine to tap water in 1.0 and 0.5% for 20 weeks. The abdominal fat pads were decreased markedly in size at the high dose of taurine, as compared to those of controls. There was no difference in blood sugar and liver cholesterol between the treated and untreated groups. The long-term feeding of taurine did not cause any change in the fatty acid composition of lipid in the abdominal fat pads, but this treatment served to liver lipid pattern of composition similar to that from BALB/C mice. 4) Whole body macroautoradiography demonstrated that administered taurine-S
35 was accumulated largely in the liver, gall bladder, gastrointestinal walls, kidney and spleen. There was no significant difference in distribution pattern of taurine-S
35 between KK and BALB/C mice.

As an approach to an understanding of the membrane action of phenothiazines, the adsorption from solution was investigated using such adsorbents as carbon black (CB), graphite (GP), silica gel (SG) and polyethylene (PE), and relating the results with other physico-chemical and biological activities of the drugs. The adsorption isotherms by CB and GP were in accordance with Langmuir equation. In the case of SG, the phenomenon looked like a multilayer adsorption. Phenothiazines were considered to be classified into three groups according to the adsorbability by PE. The adsorbed amount was influenced by the molecular volume of R
10'N at 9-position, sulfoxide group at 5-position, and the bulkiness of substituent at 2-position. The adsorbed amount increased with pH of buffer solution between 5 and 8, and it was considered that pH had influence on the hydrophobic and hydrophilic balance of the molecule. The decrease in adsorption with addition of urea demonstrated that the adsorption of phenothiazines proceeded on the hydrophobic interaction. The adsorbability of phenothiazines by CB increased with the surface tension lowering of solution and also with the partition coefficient in CHCl
3-0.2
N HCl. It was shown that the adsorbability have relation to the neuroleptic and the haemolytic activities.

The transformation reactions, i.e., transguanylation and cyclization, of AET and APT were investigated with the potentiometric titration technique. Both reactions, which proceed probably through the similar intermediate, were promoted with the increasing amounts of alkali added initially. In the initial stage of the reaction, the transguanylation occupied larger part in the transformation of AET, as well as in APT. The half life of the conjugate base, which is an active species for the transguanylation, was increased linearly with the reciprocal of the initial concentration of the conjugate base. From the concentration dependence of the half life, measured in the addition of 0.5 equivalent alkali, it was deduced that the transguanylation is second order with respect to the isothiuronium salt. The Arrhenius plots of the rates in AET and in APT gave straight and parallel lines.

In order to understand the transformation metoclopramide, 4-amino-5-chloro-N-[2-(diethylamino)-ethyl]-2-methoxybenzamide (M), in the body, the excrements in the urine of rabbits after the oral administration were examined. As a result, the five transformation products were revealed together with the parent compound. The urine was adjusted to pH 11-12, followed by extracting with ethylene dichloride ; thus, unchanged M and the two transformation products were found in the organic layer : One of the transformates was an oxidation product of the primary amino group so that the reduction of this product resulted in the parent compond. The other was identified to be 4-amino-5-chloro-N-[2-(ethylamino)-ethyl]-2-methoxybenzamide corresponding to M deethylated. At pH 4-5, a compound which was preferably extracted into ethylene dichloride was confirmed as 4-amino-5-chloro-2-methoxy benzoic acid resulting form rupture of the acid amide bond. Water-soluble products, on the other hand, were established as N
4-glucuronide and N

The method of separatory determination of metoclopramide and its N
4-glucuronide and N
4-sulfonate, which are the major excrements in the urine and the bile of rabbits receiving metoclopramide, was established. Metoclopramide in the sample solution was extracted with chloroform under the condition of alkaline pH, and back-extracted with 1/15M KH
2PO
4 (pH 4.5). Metoclopramide in the aqueous layer was diazo-coupled in a brown test-tube which was used with a view to taking away the influence of light ; thus, a developed color was measured at 540 mμ. On the other hand, the separation of the glucuronide and the sulfonate from each other was carried out by utilizing the difference in stability between them, which are hydrolysed in an acid medium. Resulting metoclopramide was isolated and determined as above-mentioned. This method was applied to the urine and the bile of rabbits administered metoclopramide intravenously.

Of metoclopramide-N
4-glucuronide and -N
4-sulfonate, both of which were found as the major constituents in the bile after metoclopramide administration to rabbits, reabsorption from the intestine was studied to explore the possibility of the entero-hepatic circulation. Following the administration of the N
4-conjugates into the rabbit duodenum, the urinary constituents were quantitatively measured at various times over a period of 12 hours. In the case of the sulfonate, all recovered in the urine was found to be the sulfonate. The result suggests that this conjugate itself may be absorbed from the intestine without being hydrolysed. On the other hand, when the glucuronide was intraduodenally given, at least two features of urinary excretion were observed : One showed that the glucuronide accounts for more than 90% of the total recovered in 8 hours, and the other did that the proportion of it to the total decreases with time. From the examinations for the stability in the aqueous solution and for the urinary excretion after the intravenous administration, it was concluded that the glucuronide may be absorbed from the intestine not only in the parent compound, namely, metoclopramide resulting from the hydrolysis but in the intact form as well as the sulfonate.
