The direct reaction of 1, 5-dimethyl-(XIm), 5-methyl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo [3, 4-d]-pyrimidinium iodide (XIp), 1-methyl-(XIIm), and 1-phenyl-1H-pyrazolo [3, 4-d] pyrimidinium hydrogen sulfate (XIIp) with active methylene compound and ketone (NuH) were carried out. NuH used in this study were as follows : malononitrile (NuH-1), ethyl cyanoacetate (NuH-2), ethyl acetoacetate (NuH-3), ethyl benzoylacetate (NuH-4), acetylacetone (NuH-5), acetone (NuH-6), cyclopentanone (NuH-7), cyclohexanone (NuH-8), and acetophenone (NuH-9). Thus, XI was transformed into the 5, 6-disubstituted 1-methyl-(or 1-phenyl)-1H-pyrazolo [3, 4-b] pyridines (IX) by the direct reaction with NuH in butanol. Similar transformation took place in the reaction of XII with NuH yielding IX together with 5-amino-1-methyl (or 1-phenyl)-1H-pyrazole (XIV). These 1H-pyrazolo [3, 4-b] pyridines (IX) were also prepared by the Friedlaender synthesis with 5-amino-1-methyl (or phenyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxaldehyde (XV) and NuH in the presence of ethoxide ion. The three possible reaction mechanisms ; path A, B, and C, were proposed. And it might be concluded that the path A stood to reason than the path B or C for the ring transformation of XI and it was not clear which path of A, B or C, was the most suitable for the ring transformation of XII.

N, N-Dibromourethan (DBU) was prepared. The addition of DBU to styrene gave an anti-Markownikoff's adduct, (2). The orientation of the addition of DBU is thus similar to that of N, N-dichloro analogue (DCU) and opposed to that of N, N-dibromobenzenesulfonamide (DBBS). Reactions of DBU, DCU, and DBBS or N, N-dibromo-p-toluenesulfonamide with 1, 2-dihydronaphthalene were examined in which DBBS gave desired adduct, (5), in good yield whereas DCU and DBU gave no normal adduct but complex mixtures. Reaction of methyldihydronaphthalenes with these reagents gave similar results. Compound (2) was converted to 1-bromo-2-benzenesulfonamido (7), and 1-alkoxy-2-benzenesulfonamido-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydronaphthalenes (8 and 9).

The mechanism of absorption inhibitory effect of polysorbate 80 was investigated. The following observations were demonstrated. 1) No significant difference in the uptake of drugs by the muscles either in the presence or absence of polysorbate 80 could be demonstrated. 2) Succinylcholine chloride was used as a muscle relaxant, but no detectable difference in the absorption of isonicotinamide in the presence or absence of polysorbate 80 could be observed. Therefore the effect of polysorbate 80 on the contractility of the muscles was excluded. 3) There was a marked inhibition in the distribution rate of isonicotinamide from blood to muscle, and the extracellular spaces were greatly decreased by pretreatment with polysorbate 80. 4) Permeation of drug through muscle slices and the connective tissue permeability were significantly lowered in the presence of polysorbate 80. Therefore it can be concluded that the mechanism of the absorption inhibitory effect of polysorbate 80 was mainly due to its influence on the extracellular space and the connective tissue permeability.

Adenosine was allowed to react with t-butyl hypochlorite in a variety of conditions. Using limited amount of the chlorinating agent at low temperature (-70°) a monochloro compound (IIa) was obtained. The structure of IIa was tentatively assigned as N
6-chloroadenosine. When the chlorination was conducted at higher temperature using excess reagent in dimethylformamide (DMF), 8-chloroadenosine (IIIa) was obtained as the main product. The structure of IIIa was elucidated by ultraviolet, mass and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra together with their chemical reactivities. The chlorination of 2', 3', 5'-tri-O-acetyladenosine also afforded 8-chloro derivative (IIIb) which gave 8-chloroadenosine by the treatment with ammonia. When N
6-methyl or N
6-dimethyladenosine were chlorinated using t-butyl hypochlorite only in the former case N
6-chloro compound (IIc) was obtained. 8-Chloro-N

The Grignard reactions of 1-phthalazine-(V-0), 2-quinoxaline (VI-0), and 4-cinnolinecarbonitrile (VII-0) were carried out. Grignard reagent used in this study was as follows ; phenylmagnesium bromide, benzylmagnesium chloride, isopropylmagnesium bromide, ethylmagnesium bromide, and methylmagnesium iodide. When a mixture of V-0 and Grignard reagent in tetrahydrofuran (THF) was refluxed for 3 hr, 1-alkylphthalazine (Va), 4-alkyl-3, 4-dihydro-1-phthalazinecarbonitrile (Vc), 4-alkyl-1-phthalazinecarbonitrile (Vc'), 2-alkyl-1(2H)-phthalazinone (Vd), and 4-alkyl-3, 4-dihydro-3-(1-phthalazinyl)-1-phthalazinecarbonitrile (Ve) were formed together with 1-benzoylphthalazine (Vb-1), 1, 4-diethyl-phthalazine (Vf-4), 1, 2-dihydro-1, 1, 2-triethyl-phthalazine (Vg-4), and 3, 4-dimethyl-3, 4-dihydro-1-phthalazinecarbonitrile (Vh-5), although the yields of all products were small. The reaction of VI-0 in THF carried out under the same conditions as V-0 gave 2-alkylquinoxaline (VIa), 2-acylquinoxaline (VI-b), 3-alkyl-3, 4-dihydro-2-quinoxalinecarbonitrile (VIc), 3-alkyl-2-quinoxalinecarbonitrile (VIc'), and 1-alkyl-2 (1H)-quinoxalinone (VId) together with 2, 2' : 3', 2"-terquinoxaline (VIi), in very small yields. The reaction of VII-0 with phenylmagnesium bromide and methylmagnesium iodide in benzene gave only d type of the compound (1-phenyl-(VIId-1), and 1-methyl-4 (1H)-cinnolinone (VIId-5)), and did not isolate other type of the compound. These, a, b, and c type of the compounds were expected reaction products, and other, c', d, e, f, g, and h type of the compounds were unexpected products. Especially, e type of the compound was the product peculiar to the Grignard reaction of V-0, and d type of the compound was characteristic product of the Grignard reactions of the cyanobenzodiazines except 4-quinazolinecarbonitrile (IV-0) giving only a type of the compound. The possible mechanisms of the formations of a, b, c, c', d, and e type of the compounds were proposed.

Effects of surfactants on salicylamide absorption was investigated from the view point of the transmucosal fluid movement using the regular in situ recirculation perfusion technique with the rat small intestine. Surfactants used were polysorbate 80, Pluronic F 68 and Pluronic L 64, and they were dissolved in perfusates in appropriate concentrations. To obtain an accurate ratio of the fluid movement in the presence of surfactants, the cylinder method was developed originally in our laboratory, and validity of the method was demonstrated. Based on the results obtained concerning the effect of surfactants on the drug absorption, the effect of the surfactant on the transmucosal fluid movement was apparently demonstrated. Since extent of the affection was unnegligible, it was suggested that the factor of the transmucosal fluid movement should be taken into considerations as well as the effect of the entrapment of the drug in micelle of the surfactant when the effect of the surfactant on drug absorption would be studied. However, the mode of the affection was different from those brought about by osmotical change, and the surfactant inhibited only in the process of fluid absorption. Based on the difference in nature, the "water-molecule-holding"effect of the surfactant was considered and discussed.

The effects of increased glucose concentration in blood on the glucose effect proposed in our previous papers were studied with sulfisoxazole, metoclopramide, and sulfanilamide using the in situ recirculating perfusion method with perfusion solution having three different tonicities which were adjusted to hypertonic, isotonic, and hypotonic with sodium chloride or glucose. To achieve the purpose, alloxan-induced diabetic rats were introduced in the present study. No effect of the increase of glucose concentration in blood in the diabetics on the glucose effect was found, since the regression lines representing the relation between the transmucosal fluid movement and the drug absorption with the controls were overlapped to each other with those of the diabetics in both of the media. Simultaneously, the effects of diabetes on the transmucosal fluid movement and the absorption of the drugs were examined. The fluid movement and the absorption of the drugs in the diabetics were always significantly greater than in the controls in all of the experimental conditions. It is reasonable to understand that the increased drug absorptions might be based on only the increment in the transmucosal fluid inflow.

A homologous series of 1-O-acyl-D-glucopyranoses (acyl=caproyl, lauroyl, myristoyl, palmitoyl, or stearoyl) were obtained as the anomeric mixtures by condensation of the appropriate fatty acid chlorides with 2, 3, 4, 6-tetra-O-benzyl-α-D-glucopyranose, followed by catalytic hydrogenation : the α anomers were predominant in all the products. Their gas-liquid chromatographic and thin-layer chromatographic behaviors were examined to establish the linear relations of log rt
R or Rf values to the acyl chain-lengths. From the anomeric mixtures, their α anomer components were isolated as crystallines by repeated recrystallization. Column chromatographic separation of the acetylated anomeric mixtures furnished the pure acetates of both anomers. The infrared nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectral features were compared between the pairs of anomers.

Anodic oxidation of benzenesulfon-p-anisidide (I), benzenesulfon-p-toluidide (II), and N-methylbenzenesulfon-p-anisidide (III) were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and controlled potential electrolysis at a glassy-carbon anode in acetonitrile. I showed a single anodic wave in the absence of pyridine, and three anodic waves in the presence of pyridine. On electrolysis of I in the absence of pyridine, p-benzoquinone and benzenesulfonamide were formed. On electrolysis of I in the presence of pyridine, N, N'-dibenzenesulfonyl-N-(4'-methoxyphenyl)-5-methoxy-o-phenylenediamine (IV) and 1-(2-benzenesulfonamido-5-methoxyphenyl) pyridinium perchlorate (V) were obtained. Anodic oxidation of II in acetonitrile containing excess of pyridine gave N, N'-dibenzenesulfonyl-N-(p-tolyl)-5-methyl-o-phenylenediamine (VI) and N, N'-dibenzenesulfonyl-5, 5'-dimethyl-2, 2'-biphenyldiamine (VII). The formation of VI and VII was interpreted in terms of one-electron transfer followed by dimerizations of the free radical of II. On electrolysis of III in the presence of pyridine, 1-(N-methyl-3-benzenesulfonamido-6-methoxyphenyl) pyridinium perchlorate (VIII) was formed as the main product. The position of pyridination, which was ortho to the methoxy-group, was explained on the basis of steric factors.

To investigate the effect of the amount of a base on the absorption of drugs from the rectum, amount of rectal fluid and distribution region of a drug in the rectum after administration of a suppository were determined. The distribution region of a drug in the rectum increased in proportion to the volume of suppository, both in PEG and cacao butter base, The rectal fluid increased with increasing volume of the PEG base, but concentration of the base in rectal fluid was always about 30%, independent of the base volume, at 2 hr after administration. On the other hand, there was no detectable amount of the fluid but a little mucus in the rectum after administration of cacao butter suppository. The results of blood concentration studies showed that both the rate and extent of absorption of sparingly soluble sulfonamides were enhanced by the increasing amount of PEG and cacao butter base. The absorbability of water-soluble sulfonamide was reduced by the increased volume of PEG base, and a better absorbability of a soluble sulfonamide was obtained from cacao butter than from PEG base. The results of in vitro membrane permeation experiment with isolated gut segments served sufficiently to explain the influence of the amount of base on in vivo rectal absorption of sulfonamides. From the results of in vivo and in vitro experiments, it was concluded that rectal absorption of sulfonamides from increased base volume of suppository depended mainly on the increment of the distribution area, that is, absorption area in rectum.

Absorption characteristics of cephalosporins were investigated using in situ recirculation technique. Cephalexin as a fairly well absorbed cephalosporin, and cefazolin as a poorly absorbed one were selected as model compounds. Absorption of cephalexin was much faster in its isoelectric region than in alkaline pH. The pH-absorption profile was not consistent with the pH-partition behavior. The absorption of cephalexin was as much as 4.6 times of cefazolin. This difference could not be explained by the pH-partition hypothesis. The surface activities of cephalosporins were investigated and their contributions to the absorption characteristics were little. The transfer rate of cephalosporins from aqueous lecithin liposome dispersion was investigated. The membrane transfer rate of cephalexin was markedly faster than cefazolin and similar result was obtained when liposome was prepared from rat intestinal total lipids. The pH-profile of the transfer rate of cephalexin across the lipid bilayers was similar to the pH-absorption profile. It is suggested that liposomes prepared from total lipids of the intestine as well as lecithin liposomes are suitable and efficient models for investigation of the transfer of these drug molecules across the intestinal membrane.

Route dependence of area under blood (or plasma) concentration curve (AUC) of drug, or first-pass effect was considered based on a generalized perfusion model where drug is supposed to be disposed in liver and kidney. The results verified the Gibaldi's equation based on a three compartment model to describe the route dependence with hepatic blood flow and hepatic clearance. From this consideration, the equation to described and to predict the dose dependence of AUC with urinary excretion and only one blood concentration at a steady state during a constant infusion was proposed and verified experimentally. And further the correspondence of the generalized perfusion model to a multi-compartment mammillary model for AUC was discussed and the equation for the route dependence was proposed in the case in which drug circulates through enterohepatic system and is disposed in small intestine as well as in liver and kidney.

The recompression time dependencies of dynamic loss energy and of the maximum displacement of the upper punch on sorbed or hydrated and anhydrous three compounds of potato starch, dicalcium phosphate and glucose were studied. In every case of our experiments, a linear relationship was found to exist between dynamic loss energy and the maximum displacement of the upper punch. The gradient of the linear relationship expresses an amount of heat generation per unit viscous deformation (J/mm) in recompression and can be utilized as a parameter of solid medicament to evaluate its tablet compressibility. The values of those gradients were much influenced by the sorbed water in potato starch, but a little by the water of hydrated form in dicalcium phosphate and glucose.

Structural modification of the 3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl moiety (C moiety) of β-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl) ethylbenzene (1), which constitutes an essential part of phyllodulcin molecule, was attempted to clarify the relationship between the structure and sweet taste. The 4-methoxyl group of 1 being replaced with higher homologous alkoxyl groups such as an ethoxyl and a propoxyl group, the level of sweetness of these homologs was found to decrease with increasing number of methylenes in the alkoxyl group. β-(3-Hydroxy-4-methoxycyclohexyl) ethylcyclohexane (8) synthesized by reduction of both aromatic rings of 1 had a bitter taste. Aliphatic derivatives of 1 corresponding to the structure with the aromatic ring of the C moiety opened at the dashed line through a and b as shown in Table II, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, and 15 were synthesized. All of these compounds had a bitter taste except tasteless 15.

Structural modification of the phenyl moiety (A moiety) of β-(3-hydroxy-4-methoxyphenyl) ethylbenzene (I), which constitute an essential part of phyllodulcin molecules, was attempted to make the relationship between structure and sweet taste clearer. Twenty-four derivatives of A moiety of I were synthesized, the compound (II, IV, V, VI, X, XXII, XXIII, and XXVI) revealed sweet taste and the other compounds were tasteless. On the basis of these data, the taste of these compounds were discussed in connection with the stereochemical hindrance effect of substituents.

The isolation and characterization of the cardiotonic steroid constituents in the skin of the Japanese toad, Bufo vulgaris formosus BOULENGER, has been carried out. Three new types of bufotoxins in which the succinoyl, adipoyl, and pimeloyl groups are displaced for the suberoyl residue of the so-called"bufotoxin, "were separated and identified. In addition, the occurrence of bufogenin 3-sulfates and analogous conjugates of cardenolide named cardenobufotoxin was also demonstrated. The ethanolic extract of the skin obtained from 1800 toads was separated by chromatography on Amberlite XAD-2 resin, silica gel, and Sephadex LH-20, followed by highperformance liquid chromatography to provide new cardiotonic steroid conjugates. The structures of these substances were elucidated to be resibufogenin 3-succinoylarginine ester (Id), gamabufotalitoxin homologs (IIg, IIk, IIn, IIp), bufalitoxin homologs (IIIc, IIIe, IIIg, IIIi), cinobufotoxin homologs (IVc, IVe, IVg, IVl), arenobufotoxin (Vd), cinobufotalitoxin (VIb), cardenobufotoxins (VIIId, VIIIf), bufogenin 3-sulfates (IIq, IIIj, Ve, VIId), and sarmentogenin 3-sulfate (VIIIg) by degradative and synthetic means.

We have newly synthesized a series of N-[(N-nitrosoarylamino) methyl] succinimides, disclosing their syn and anti equilibria in a state of solution. It has been found that these nitrosoamines are capable of furnishing aromatic diazotates in basic media. By allowing the generating aromatic diazotates to react in situ, azo-couplings and triazene formations have been provided. The nitrosoamines behaved in acidic media to suffer a migration of the nitroso group similarly to the Fischer-Hepp migration.

A fluorometric method is presented for the assay of dopamine-β-hydroxylase activity in human serum. This is based on the enzymatic conversion of β-phenylethylamine under the optimum conditions to phenylethanolamine, which is then oxidized to benzaldehyde and determined fluorometrically by means of the previously established method for selective determination of aromatic aldehydes with 1, 2-diaminonaphthalene. The method is readily performed and is suitable to assay a large number of samples at the same time with 10μl of sample.

As part of a study on the steric aspects of the partial agonist activity of phenylazabicycloalkane analgetics, the title compound (A), a skeletal isomer of the known partial agonist (I), was synthesized. The keto ester (IV) was converted to the lactam (VIII) either by hydrogenation of the oxime (V) or by reductive amination. VIII gave A bearing various substituents. Alternatively, A was obtained from the unsaturated amine (XVI) via the bridged aziridine (XVII). Generally, no discernible analgetic activity was observed for A. However, the two N-methyl compounds (Xf and XIc) exhibited narcotic antagonist activity on the order of I and pentazocine. The simple N-methyl-3-phenylpiperidines (II), a prototype of both I and A, also showed comparable antagonist activity. These results support the idea that the N-methylphenethylamine fragment in I is responsible for its antagonist activity. Replacement of the N-methyl group of Xf by an allyl and a propyl group conferred increased antagonist activity. This shift of the potency parallels that observed for II previously.

In order to explore a new cleavage method for an arabinoside or a galactoside linkage which attaches to a triterpenoidal or a steroidal aglycone, a photochemical method has been investigated. It has been found that glycoside linkages in 2'-keto-arabinoside and 2'-keto-galactoside derivatives of triterpenoids and a steroid are cleaved upon photolysis to furnish their aglycones in their oxidized forms. In addition, it has been shown that, through the present photochemical procedure, an arabinoside linkage in ziyu-glycoside II (8), which has been known to give an artifact aglycone upon ordinary acid hydrolysis, is cleaved while its acid-labile moiety in the aglycone part is left unchanged.

Percutaneous absorption of α-olefin sulfonate (AOS) was investigated in rats by using
14C-labeled compound. The solution of
14C-AOS was applied to the dorsal skin under various conditions : (a) the intact skin dried naturally after application, (b) the intact skin wiped off 0.5 hr after application, (c) the intact skin wiped off 1.5 hr after application, (d) the intact skin with a plastic cup containing
14C-AOS solution and (e) the damaged skin without the stratum corneum dried naturally after application. When rats were applied with 0.5 ml of a 0.2% solution of
14C-AOS under the condition of (a), the recoveries of radioactivity were 0.33% in the urine, 0.08% in the bile and 0.21% in the main organs at 24 hr after application. It was thus estimated that the total amount absorbed through the skin was about 0.6% of the applied dose. Comparing the results obtained under the conditions of (a), (b) and (c), the percutaneous absorption of
14C-AOS applied on the skin was almost finished by 1.5 hr after application. The excretion of radioactivity into the urine and bile was approached to the highest rate around 3-6 hr, then gradually decreased, and continued even 70-90 hr after application. When a 0.02% solution of
14C-AOS was always in contact with the skin under the condition of (d), a small amount of the surfactant was continuously absorbed from the skin. On the other hand, when the skin was damaged and
14C-AOS was applied on it under the condition of (e), a greater amount of radioactivity was excreted into the urine and bile, and the recoveries were 36.26% in the urine, 1.83% in the bile and 12.28% in the main organs 30 hr after application, being about 50% in total.

Following the previous study on deethylation of p-nitrophenetole with rabbit liver microsomes, demethylation of p-nitroanisole was analogously investigated, using reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) and NADH plus NADPH as the cofactor. It was found that this reaction proceeded well with NADH as well as NADPH, and this NADH-dependent demethylation was different from those of other two systems. For example, optimum pH was 6.0 in the NADH system, but was 7.4 in the NADPH or NADH plus NADPH system, and the reaction was inhibited by CO in the NADPH or NADH plus NADPH system, but not in the NADH system. Furthermore, KCN did not inhibit the demethylation in any one of three systems at 10
-4M. These results were just the same as obtained in the deethylation of p-nitrophenetole and suggested also a possible involvement of a new type of NADH-dependent oxygenase which was different from cytochrome P-450 and cyanidesensitive factor, in the demethylation of p-nitroanisole with rabbit liver microsomes. The NADPH-and NADH plus NADPH-dependent demethylations, on the other hand, were assumed to be catalyzed by the enzyme system involving cytochrome P-450.
