    The antibacterial activities of 64 naphthyridine derivatives were tested. Ultimately, potassium 1, 4-dihydro-1-methyl-7-[2-(5-nitro-2-furyl) vinyl]-4-oxo-1, 8 -naphthyridine-3-carboxylate (677K) was selected as the most active compound. Compound 677K exhibited excellent antibacterial activities against either gram-positive or gram-negative bacteria in vitro. Furthermore, 677K exhibited high activities against experimental infection of streptococci, diplococci, or staphylococci in mice when administered orally. The activity on diplococcal infection in mice was higher than that of aminobenzylpenicillin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, sulfisomezole, and dihydroxymethylfuratrizine. The effect of 677K against experimental typhosis was small. Cross resistance was seen between 677K and DF, but not between 677K and NA.

    N-Demethylation of ρ-substituted dimethylaniline derivatives, N-methyl-N-alkylaniline derivatives and N-methyl-N-acylaniline derivatives was investigated. The rates of N-demethylation of several series of ρ-substituted dimethylaniline depended upon their lipid solubilities. The more lipid soluble the amine was, the more readily it was demethylated. The ρ-substituted dimethylanilines of high lipid solubilities revealed small Km and Ks values, whereas those of low lipid solubilities exhibited large Km and Ks values. N-Demethylation activity of the high lipid soluble ρ-substituted dimethylaniline was intensely stimulated by phenobarbital administration in comparison with that of the low lipid soluble p-substituted dimethylaniline. N-Demethylation of ρ-substituted dimethylaniline of low lipid solubility was inhibited more strongly than that of high lipid solubility by SKF 525-A, but this relation between lipid solubility and inhibitory rate was not observed in carbon monoxide inhibition. The studies on N-demethylation of N-methyl-N-alkylaniline derivatives revealed that the rate of N-demethylation did not always depend on the lipid solubilities of amines. It was suggested that steric hindrance about the nitrogen atom interfered with N-demethylation of N-methyl-N-alkylaniline derivatives. In the studies on N-demethylation of N-methyl-N-acylaniline derivatives, the difference of N-demethylation rate between N-methyl-N-propyonylaniline and N-methyl-N-benzoylaniline seemed to depend on the spectral change per P-450 rather than lipid solubility.

    The Diels-Alder reaction of 5-ethoxy-4-ethoxycarbonylmethyloxazole (I) with dienophiles was investigated. The stereochemistry of the addition products that had an exocyclic double bond was confirmed by the spectroscopic data. The reaction of I with maleic anhydride gave endo-(II) and exo-adduct (III), and the isomerization of II to 1II proceeded easily. The reaction of I with eight symmetrical dienophiles afforded the isomeric adducts. Similar treatment of asymmetrical dienophiles afforded the corresponding adducts, respectively. The stereochemistry of these adducts was discussed.

    The semiempirical SC F-MO-CI calculations were performed with the aid of the variable β-core procedure for a systematic investigation of the π-electronic structures and spectra of a series of pyrones and coumarins including sulfur derivatives. The calculated results on the π-π* transitions indicated several significant effects of the heteroatom replacement upon the polarization direction and oscillator strength. The calculated values of the singlet π-π* transition energies for the compounds excepting the thiothia-derivatives and the polarization directions of the lowest two π-π* transitions of coumarins and so on were found to be in good agreement with the observed results. Also, the changes in the π-electronic distribution in going from the ground to the lowest 1 (π, π*) and/or 3 (π, π*) state were in good correlation with a few experimental facts.

    The reaction product of diphenide (I) with potassium cyanide, previously described as 2'-cyanomethy1-2-biphenylcarboxylic acid (II), is in fact a phenanthrol derivative (V). The acid (II) is an intermediate in the reaction. These facts were provedby synthesis of II from I by an alternative, unambiguous method. In the last step of the synthesis, only boron tribromide is effective for hydrolysis of the ester (IX). This is the first time it has been employed as a hydrolyzing agent for an ester.
    In contrast to previous results, 9-phenanthrol (III) was found to be a product of the calcium salt of V.

    Imidazoline was benzoylated with 3, 5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride and sodium carbonate buffer by the usual Schotten-Baumann reaction to develop a deep red color. The reaction was carried out in the dark and the solution after addition of 3, 5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride to imidazoline was immediately brought to a slightly acidic or neutral pH by which the color developed. This coloration was applied for the determination of naphazoline in pharmaceuticals and the mechanism of this reaction was also investigated.

    Mechanism of the absorption of drugs from oil in water emulsions was studied in the rat large intestine. Synthesized esters of fatty acids and phthalic acid-0.1% Polysorbate 80 was chosen as the emulsion system, the oil/water volume ratio was varied from 0 to 1, and the absorption from emulsions of sulfapyridine, salicylamide, and of acetanilide was investigated using in situ recirculation and loop techniques.
    In the absorption of drugs having partition coefficients of larger than one, amount of drugs in aqueous phase rather than their concentrations was a critical factor for the absorption from oil in water emulsions.
    In the absorption of poorly oil-soluble drugs, drug absorption from emulsions was larger than the one from aqueous solutions when the overall volume of emulsions was kept constant, which suggested the importance of absolute volume of aqueous phase in the absorption of drugs from such systems.
    Usually drugs dissolved in oil were absorbed mainly via aqueous phase.

    Drug absorption from oily solutions was investigated by the rat large intestine using in situ re circulation technique. Three model drugs (acetanilide, sulfapyridine, and salicylamide) and three different kinds of oil (isopropyl palmitate, ethyl laurate, and diethyl phthalate) were chosen for absorption studies.
    It was found that in oily solution, drug absorption through the large intestinal membrane usually took place after being liberated from oil into the secreting fluid.
    In the absorption of a drug having oil/water partition coefficient of less than one, apparent enhancement in the absorption was observed. This was attributed to the small volume of secreting fluid (aqueous phase) and the local concentration build-up of a drug at the absorptive surface.
    Some comparisons have been made with the absorptive behavior of drugs from oil in water emulsions.

    Cysteine ethyl ester hydrochloride was as effective as cysteine in saving the life of X-irradiated (600 R) mice, regardless of whether it was given orally or intraperitoneally. However, the compound did not prolong the life of the animals who received higher dose (800 R) of X-rays.Notwithstanding rather weak effectiveness in radiation protection, cysteine ethyl ester will be useful because of its low toxicity; median lethal oral dose in mice was 35.8 mmoles/kg, while the radioprotective effect was observable in an oral dose of 2.0 mmoles/kg.

From the available data, a mechanism for the ring contraction was proposed. A most interesting finding is that formation of III does not involve an anomalous substitution as has been observed in the ring contraction of I to 1-phenyl-3-hydroxypyrazole-5-carboxylic acid (II) upon treatment with aqueous sodium hydroxide.

    The partition behaviors of amphoteric acids with pH were examined based on the theoretical considerations. The apparent partition coefficient, defined as the ratio of the activities of the acid in organic and aqueous phases, is maximal at the isoelectric point. When pK1, is much smaller than pK2, the apparent partition coefficient coincides with the true partition coefficient, defined as the ratio of the activities of the neutralform of the acid in the two phases, at this point. The former changes linearly with slopesof +1 and-1 in the region of pK1>>pH and pK2<<pH. By applying the method of Ang when the presence of the zwitter-ionic form can be excluded, it was demonstrated that the true partition coefficient can be determined exactly from this pH-partition curve, even if the ionization constants of the acid are not known. This method also gives the values of the two ionization constants, so it seemed to be available for determination of the ionization constants of acids, which are very slightly soluble in water.
    The partition coefficients of p-aminobenzoic acid, sulfonamide and sulfamonomethoxine were measured in an n-octanol/H2O system at 25°over a wide pH range. The variation of the partition coefficients with pH confirmed the above considerations well. The values obtained for the true partition coefficients and ionization constants agreed well with the results of others.

    The Diels-Alder reaction of 4-carboxymethyl-5-ethoxyoxazole (I) was investigated. First, the mechanism and the stereochemistry of the adducts in the course of the Diels-Alder reaction were discussed. Second, the reaction of I with asymmetrical dienophiles gave the substance that an electron attracting group was preferentially introduced at γ-position of pyridine nucleus. Finally, the reaction of I with maleic anhydride, fumaric acid, maleic acid and methacrylic acid afforded the decarboxylated compounds. The mechanism of these reaction was discussed.

    The effect of the long chain keto acid, which is one of the secondary products from oxidative deteriolation of lipids, on the enzyme activity was investigated in vitro. Cholinesterase and succinate dehydrogenase were inhibited more effectively by 12-keto oleic than by linoleic acid, whereas the inhibition of trypsin by linoleic acid was greater than that caused by 12-keto oleic acid. This fact may show that the enzyme inhibition 12-keto oleic acid is not merely due to nonspecific denaturation.
    The inhibitory effect of 12-keto oleic acid on acetylcholinesterase was not protected the presence of a-tocopherol, while the inhibition by linoleic acid was completely restored when a-tocopherol was added simultaneously. When both linoleic and 12-keto oleic acids were added at the same time, the synergistic inhibition was observed, which partially protected by a-tocopherol. hus the inhibition caused by 12-keto oleic is not only the reflection of the stimulation of lipid peroxidation induced by 12-keto oleic acid, but the specific irreversible interaction with enzyme protein.

    Reduction of (trifluoromethyl) quinolines by nucleophilic attack of hydride was studied. Sodium borohydride reduced only 3-(trifluoromethyl) quinoline to methyl derivative, while lithium aluminum hydride reduced other isomers to methylquinolines and 3-(trifluoromethyl) quinoline to 3-(difluoromethyl)-1, 2-dihydroquinoline. The mechanisms were proposed.

    Although the physical properties of sulfonamide derivatives have been investigated in detai1, those of sulfinamide derivatives have been left almost in ambiguity. This paper deals with the results obtained from the infrared spectra of 25 aromatic sulfinamide derivatives measured in both CHCl3solution and KBr disks.

    The molecular basis for the lowering action of chloroprmazine (CPZ) on the membrane permeability has not been cleared yet. The surface activity of CPZ itself has been thought to be ascribable to the permeability reduction for some time. However, Blei has demonstrated a marked decrease in the surface tension of solutions of CPZ in the presence of adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP), and suggested that the formation of CPZ-ATP complex of greater surface activity than CPZ alone is attributed to the reduction of membrane permeability. Hence, in the present work, the formation of complexes of CPZ with adenosine, adenosine-5'-monophosphate (AMP), and ATP has been investigated by the aid of ultraviolet absorption spectra.

    In a previous paper, a colorimetric method for the determination of urea nitrogen in blood and urine was presented on the basis of a color reaction of urea with diacetyl monoxime (DAM) in phosphoric acid solution in the presence of D-glucuronolactone (GL), which served to produce a photo-stable color and eliminate the sigmoidal nature of calibration curve observed usually in the DAM method. The method was then modified for the microdetermination and the automated determination of urea nitrogen in blood. These methods, however, required a relatively long heating time (40 min) to obtain an appropriate and constant intensity.
    In the course of study on the determination of urea in biological fluids, D-gluco-1, 4-3, 6-disaccharolactone (SL) was found to produce rapidly an intense color when added to the reaction mixture of urea with DAM in phosphoric acid solution. The developed color gradually faded in daylight, but the initial color became stable when GL was present in the reaction mixture. Then a simple, rapid and reliable method for the determination of urea nitrogen in blood was developed utilizing this finding.

    Petroleum crudes contain metal porphyrins which are known to poison catalysts when the petroleum is subjected to a catalytic hydrodesulfurization. During the course of our hydrodesulfurization studies, some preliminary investigations on the chromatographic separation of metal porphyrins were carried out, leading us to consider that a thin-layer chromatographic separation is superior and less time-consuming as compared with the paper chromatographic method. In the present note we shall report such a thin-layer chromatographic method with respect to the separation of synthetic tetraphenylporphin and its metal complexes.

    In connection with the biochemical studies on D-glucaric acid, a normal constituent of human urine which is derived from D-glucuronolactone, we developed a colorimetric method for the quantitative determination of this acid. Thus, D-glucaric acid separated from mammalian urines using ion-exchange column chromatography was oxidized with periodic acid to give glyoxylic acid, which was further converted into the intensely colored 1, 5-diphenyl-formazan and determined colorimetrically. During the course of our studies on D-glucaric acid a much more highly sensitive method was required for the accurate estimation of normal serum level of D-glucaric acid in mammals. The present paper deals with the fluorometric determination of D-glucaric acid which is based on the condensation of glyoxylic acid derived from D-glucaric acid with 4'-hydrazino-2-stilbazole to yield a highly fluorescent product using a modification of the procedure for the determination of α-oxo acids originally reported by Mizutani, et al.(Fig. 1).
