The charge-transfer complex formed by the interaction between the electron acceptor, p-chloranilic acid and an electron donor diethylcarbamazine was adopted for the assay of the drug in pure powder and in tablets. In dioxane-chloroform medium, chloranilic acid was found to form a 1 : 1 molecular complex with diethylcarbamazine with maximum absorption band at 540 nm. At 540 nm, the absorbance was linear (γ=0.9999) over the concentration range of 10-400 μg/ml. The pertinent equilibrium constants and molar absorptivities were calculated at different temperatures using the Scott equation and were found to decrease with increase in temperature. The free energy change (ΔG°) and the enthalpy of formation (ΔH°) as well as the entropy (ΔS°) were determined for the various interactions. The proposed method has been conveniently applied in the analysis of commercially available diethylcarbamazine citrate tablets with good accuracy and precision.

A series of Al, Ti, Zn and Zr compounds, i.e., their metal alkoxides, organic acid and enolate salts, halid and oxide, were evaluated as intramolecular transesterification catalysts for the thermal depolymerization reaction of poly(L-lactic acid) oligomer resulting in LL-lactide, meso-lactide and DD-lactide by gas chromatography using a β-cyclodexstrin chiral stationary phase capillary column. The activity of the intramolecular transesterification compared with that of stannous 2-ethylhexanoate was in the following order : Sn>Zn>Zr>Ti>Al.

A novel series of indolebutyric acids with varying benzoyl substituents were synthesized to develop nonsteroidal inhibitors of steroid 5α-reductase. We previously reported the discovery of a novel nonsteroidal 5α-reductase inhibitor, FR119680, which had an IC
50 value of 5.0 nM against the rat prostatic enzyme. However, this compound was not strongly active against the human prostatic enzyme. By further study of the structure-activity relationships we succeeded in producing the strongly active compound, FK143, 4-[3-[3-[bis(4-isobutylphenyl)-methylamino]benzoyl]-1H-indol-1-yl]butyric acid, with an IC
50 value of 1.9 nM against the human enzyme. FK143 also has in vivo inhibitory activity against the castrated young rat model and it should therefore be an extremely useful agent for the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

To prevent temperature-dependent gel-sol transformation of an o/w emulsion type new vehicle system for a soft gelatin capsule, which may be available for both preclinical and clinical trials, the basic new vehicle formulation (PEG 400 : purified water : medium chain triglyceride : polyoxyethylene (20) cetylether=77 : 10 : 10 : 3) was modified by partially (1, 2 or 3%) replacing PEG 400 with PEG 6000 or PVP K30.When 2 or 3% of PEG 400 was replaced with PEG 6000, temperature-dependent gel-sol transformation was prevented at temperatures below 40 °C, and the vehicle appeared to be stable during 8 weeks of storage at 4 to 40 °C; the particle size distribution remained unchanged. When 1% of PEG 400 was replaced with PEG 6000, gel-sol transformation was not prevented, though phase separation was not observed at sol state, and the particle size distribution was shifted to be in a larger particle size range after 2 weeks of storage.When PEG 400 was partially (1, 2 or 3%) replaced with PVP K30, temperature-dependent gel-sol transformation was not prevented and, after 2 weeks of storage at 40 °C, the particle size distributions of the vehicles were shifted to be in a larger particle size range and the vehicles were separated into two layers.These results suggested that a small amount of PEG 6000 plays an important role in preventing temperature-dependent gel-sol transformation of our developed vehicle system.

The synthesis of acetomycin and related analogs was investigated. Acetomycin was synthesized from diethyl allyl(methyl)malonate in 6.5% yield over 18 steps. The total number of steps was improved compared to our previous synthesis; i.e., four steps shorter, and the total yield was 4.5% greater than the previous synthesis. Acetomycin analogs with benzoyloxy and pivaloyloxy groups, instead of an acetoxy group at the 5-position of the γ-butyrolactone ring were designed as esterase-resistant models and prepared similarly.Although they showed a similar level of cytotoxicity as acetomycin in vitro, they were not resistant to porcine liver esterase, and lost cytotoxicity in vivo.

Deoxygenation reaction of steroidal 16, 17-ketols 1, 2 and 6 as well as their silyl ethers 3 and 7 and 16- and 17-iodoketone analogs 11, 12, and 14 with trimethylsilyl iodide (TMSI) or HI under various conditions was examined. The results indicate that the deoxygenation producing 16- and 17-ketones 9 and 8 proceeds through multiple reaction pathways; a direct iodination of a siloxy group of the ketol silyl ethers by iodide ion to give the iodoketones (path b), addition of TMSI to a carbonyl group of the ketol silyl ethers to yield diiodo derivatives 22 and 23 through iodo-bis-TMS compounds 20 and 21 (path a), and cleavage of ether bond of dimers 15-18 initially produced are, at least, involved. In these sequences, rearrangement of the 16-ketols 1 and 2 to the 17β-ketol 6 also plays a significant role. The yields of the ketones 9 and 8 and their relative amounts would be dependent on the relative importance of each pathway in the reaction.

To search for recemization-free coupling conditions for peptides having N-alkylamino acids at the carboxy-termini, a model coupling using Boc-Phe-MeAla-OH (MeAla, N-methylalanine) and H-Phe-OBzl was studied. When benzotriazolyl-N-oxytris(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate or O-(7-azabenzotriazol-1-yl)-1, 1, 3, 3, -tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate was employed as a coupling reagent, no additives so far examined could sufficiently suppress the racemization of the carboxy-terminal MeAla residue. Though N-hydroxy compounds were not satisfactorily effective also in 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (WSCI)-mediated coupling, CuCl
2 could eliminate the racemization of MeAla in the coupling with WSCI even at room temperature.

Amphiphilic terpolymer xerogels were prepared from N-isopropyl acrylamide, acrylic acid, and n-dodecyl acrylamide by both chemical redox initiated polymerization and γ-irradiation polymerization. The swelling equilibrium and swelling kinetics of amphiphilic xerogels prepared by these two polymerization methods were compared. Drug release behavior was also compared using 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) as a model drug, in order to elucidate the effect of polymerization method. γ-Irradiation polymerization provided amphiphilic terpolymer xerogels which exhibited slower swelling and drug release than chemical redox initiated polymerization.

The synthesis and biological evaluation of the dicarba-closo-dodecaborane (carborane) derivatives of retinoids are described. Retinoidal activity was examined in terms of the differentiation-inducing ability toward human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells. High retinoidal activity (agonist or antagonist for the retinoid receptor RAR) requires a carboxylic acid moiety and an appropriate hydrophobic group located at a suitable position on the molecule. 4-[4-(1, 2-Dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl)phenylamino]benzoic acids and 4-[3-(1, 2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboran-1-yl)phenylamino]benzoic acids showed potent agonistic activity at concentrations of 10
-8-10
-9 M. The results indicate that carboranes are applicable as the hydrophobic moiety of biologically active molecules.
