The primary structure of enduracidin, a cyclodepsipeptide antibiotic, was estimated by the determination of the amino acid sequence, optical isomers of each amino acid, and lactone structure. The result is that the enduracidin has a macro-ring lactone structure which is composed of 16 amino acids, and has a side chain aspartic acid which is connected to a fatty acid by an amide bond. The tentative structure is shown in Fig. 7.

Consequently, the structural difference between enduracidins A and B was proved to be present in their unsaturated fatty acid moieties, and their full structures were assumed to be as shown in Fig. 10.

Various methanesulfonic acid derivatives of p, p'-diaminodiphenylsulfone (Da), which are represented as [chemical formula], were synthesized and their hydrolysis rates in vitro were investigated. The two methanesulfonic acid groups were hydrolyzed by steps in consecutive first-order reactions. The first hydrolysis rate was larger than the second rate in any of the derivatives. The electron-donating groups facilitate and the electron-withdrawing groups retard the hydrolysis. When R is HOCH
2 (CHOH)
4 (promin), phenyl, p-chlorophenyl, or p-nitrophenyl, the hydrolysis rate was pH-dependent and faster in the acidic region. The general acid catalysis by buffer constituents was studied in detail with promin. As a biopharmaceutical indication on the retardation of free Da liberation, kinetic induction period and the rate of accumulation in vitro were evaluated. Result from promin indicated that the liberation of parental Da in vivo is strikingly slow and a large part of therapeutic dose of promin, which is markedly larger than that of parental Da, may possibly be wasted in an ineffective form. The derivatives substituted with Me or Et have fast hydrolysis rate and these may be better in the avaliability of parenteral Da compared to promin.

4 were isolated. When 0.2% (w/v) chloroform solution of I was heated with the equal volume of HClO
4 under nitrogen stream for 30 min at 60-65°, the steric isomers (m/e=272) of 17-methyl-18-norandrost-4-en-3-one (III) were obtained from the organic layer. The deep-green acid layer gave the mixture of 17-methyl-18-norandrosta-4, 13 (17)-dien-3-one (IV) and 17-methyl-18-norandrosta-4, 13 (14)-dien-3-one (V). Standard specimens of IV and V gave easily the similar absorption spectra to that (Fig. 1) due to I, when they were dissolved in the dichloromethane solution saturated with HClO
4. The dienones, IV and V, also gave the same spectra even in the moderately acidic conditions where I still remained inert. Partially hydrogenated product (III), on the contrary, failed to show any visible light absorption in the acid medium. It seems that the isomeric olefins, IV and V, are the intermediates in the present chromogenic reaction and the carbonium ions (VIII) formed by the protonation of them may play an essential part in producing the chromophore.

When epitestosterone (17α-hydroxyandrost-4-en-3-one) (I) was heated with formic acid, 17-methyl-18-norandrosta-4, 13 (17)-dien-3-one (III) and 17-methyl-18-norandrosta-4, 13 (14)-dien-3-one (IV) were formed, besides the 17α-formate of I. Kagi-Miescher reaction of I, III, and IV gave almost identical absorption spectra (Fig. 3). The olefinic products, III and IV, were, contrary to the original substrate (I), so sensitive that the bathochromic absorption was noticeable already at the first stage of this reaction without any heating. Although any increase in intensity was never observed on boiling in this case, a remarkable hyperchromic change at the wave-length (580 nm) of the maximum absorption was noticed at the second stage of the reaction, in which bromine molecules are the regular additive. It seems in the Kagi-Miescher chromogenic reaction that the possible intermediates, III and IV, including their protonated carbonium ions are oxidized mainly by bromine molecule to produce the characteristic chromophore in an acid medium.

On thermal treatment, the latter methiodide was converted into the former. Methiodides, IV, XI, Xa, and Xb were reduced with lithium-liquid ammonia giving the 10-membered ring lactam (XII) in 4%, 52%, 81%, and 82% yields, respectively. When treated with sodium amalgam, Xa gave XII in 59% yield, which, on reduction with lithium aluminum hydride, yielded XIII.

On nitration of 9-phenylxanthylium salt (I) with a mixed acid, 9-mononitrophenyl-xanthylium salt was obtained in 99% yield. The treatment of 9-phenylthioxanthylium salt (II) in the same condition gave a dinitrated product. Various nitration conditions were examined to obtain a mononitrated product. In order to determine the positions of the nitro group, various derivatives of I and II were synthesized. On the other hand, acetamido compounds derived from mononitrated I was separated into two isomers. It was thus proved that they were 9-(m-acetamidophenyl) xanthene (IVa) and 9-(p-acetamidophenyl) xanthene (IVb) in the ratio of 4.5 to 1.0, while mononitrated II gave 9-(m-acetamidophenyl) thioxanthene (XVa) and 9-(p-acetamidophenyl)-thioxanthene (XVb) in the ratio of 1.0 to 1.25. These results were particularly surprising in view of the fact that II was nitrated much easier than the oxygen analog I and also the p-nitro derivative was formed more than the m-nitro derivative.

Spectral data and chemical evidences reveal that the positions of the hydroxyl groups are C-6 in XI and C-4b in XII. The cis B/C ring juncture in XI is determined by observation of the nuclear Overhauser effect between 10b-Me and 4b-H. The formation pathways of XI and XII are examined and deduced to be the photoinduced intramolecular alkylation on carbon in the enamine system with olefin.

A new isoflavone, licoricone, C
22H
22O
6, mp 250-251°, was isolated from the root of Glycyrrhiza uralensis FISCH, et DC. The chemical structure of licoricone was studied spectroscopically to lead a partial formula (VII). Finally an X-ray crystallographic analysis of its monobromoacetate (VIII) was undertaken to formulate licoricone as I.

On the basis of ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) evidence, 3-phenyl-1, 2, 4-triazolin-5-one and its N-methyl derivatives were all shown to exist as the oxo forms, except the 2-methyl derivative which existed as the hydroxy form. Similarly, UV data showed the predominance of the thione forms of 3-phenyl-1, 2, 4-triazoline-5-thione and its N-methyl derivatives. The syntheses of the N-methyl derivatives of the triazolines used in the present study were described.

In a comparison of the percutaneous absorption of
22Na+ with that of
36Cl-, zinc-EDTA-
65Zn, ferric-EDTA-
59Fe, ferric-tiron-
59Fe or ferric-chromotropic acid-
59Fe by the"double isotopic method, "it was demonstrated that water-soluble substances added simultaneously to absorption or hydrophilic ointment were absorbed at widely different rates through hair-clipped mouse skin. These results suggest that water-soluble substances added to an emulsion-type ointment may be absorbed through the skin into the body not as emulsified particles themselves but as solution or particles ultimately free of ointment base. It was also demonstrated that percutaneous absorbability of ferric-chromotropic acid-
59Fe was significantly lower than that of ferric-tiron-
59Fe when a comparison of the rates of absorption of these two radioactive compounds was made indirectly by using the absorption rate of
22Na+ added simutlaneously with each
59Fe-chelate compound to the absorption ointment as a standard. Thus, it was inferred that, when other conditions are similar, the percutaneous absorbability of water-soluble substances from emulsion-type ointment through mouse skin may be decreased with an increase in molecular size.

Four diterpenoids were isolated from the dried leaves and stems of Isodon japonicus HARA. Two of them were shown to be identical with the known isodonal (2) and epinodosin (3). Spectroscopic investigation and a chemical conversion into epinodosin dihydroderivative (10) established the structure and absolute configuration of sodoponin as 11. The structure and absolute configuration of epinodosinol were elucidated as 16, on the basis of spectroscopic data and some chemical evidence. Finally, sodoponin (11) was converted into epinodosinol (16), which confirmed their structures unequivocally.
