Chlorination of 6-chloro-4-cyclohexylresorcinol in ether solution with sulfuryl chloride results in the formation of an unstable intermediate, instead of the 2, 6-dichloro compound, and the recrystallization of the intermediate from benzene gives a white substance (I), m.p. 140-141.5° (decomp.), which shows a formula of C

6, possessing one mole of benzene and showing a phototropy. The crystals become tinted pink when directly irradiated by sunlight, and the melting point decreases in croportion to the duration of irradiation, finally yielding yellowish brown to brown prystals of m.p. 82-88°. The pink crystals of m.p. 131-133°, obtained by 18 minutes' irradiation, completely returned to the white substance after 24 hours, showing an m.p. 140-141.5°, but those that have changed to brown do not change color or return to the original white substance even after standing in the dark for some period. (I), when dried at 80° for 24 hours, in vacuum, or heated to over 70° for 1.5 hours, changes to a compound possessing a formula of C

In order to obtain 2, 6-dichloro-4-cyclohexylresorcinol, 6-chloro compound was chlorinated with sulfuryl chloride but, instead of the objective compound, an unstable intermediate was obtained and its properties were studied. The intermediate shows phenolic properties but is totally different from chloroalkylresorcinols. Its absorption spectrum showed that the absorption curve has shifted to a longer wave-length range compared to those of 6-chloro- or 2, 6-dichloro-4-cyclohexylresorcinol. The compound yields a precipitate with methanolic silver nitrate solution which is not the case with the 6-chloro or 2, 6-dichloro compound. Methylation with diazomethane gives a monomethyl ether which no longer shows phenolic properties and which, by catalytic reduction, liberates one mole of chlorine and resumes the phenolic properties. Methylation of the latter yields 6-chloro-4-cyclohexylresorcinol dimethyl ether whose dehalogenation and subsequent permanganate oxidation give β-resorcylic acid dimethyl ether.

Chlorination of 6-chloro-4-cyclohexylresorcinol with sulfuryl chloride gives an unstable intermediate (I), possessing one phenolic hydroxyl radical. Its methylation with diazomethane, followed by catalytic reduction results in the formation of a mono-methyl ether (V) of 6-chloro-4-cyclohexylresorcinol. In order to determine the relative positions of the phenolic hydroxyl and the methoxyl group in (V), various reactions were carried out from which (V) was assumed to be 6-chloro-4-cyclohexylresorcinol-3-methyl ether, showing the phenolic hydroxyl to be present in the 1-position and the methoxyl at 3-position.

Even in compounds with even-numbered carbons, α-picoline, γ-picoline and 2, 3, 6-collidine are formed, but not β-picoline and 1, 3, 6-collidine. The present workers succeeded in obtaining pyridine as well as β-picoline and 3, 5-lutidine by the addition of methanol in the mixture of (I) and (II). Various catalysts were tried and Cd-phosphate, -chromate, -tungstate, -titanate and -vanadate were found to give the best yields of pyridine, with Fuller's earth used as the carrier. The best temperature range was found to be 350-425°, molar ratio of (I), (II) and MeOH at 1:1:1, the highest yield of (IV) being 23.7% calculated from the amount of (I) used.

It was found that, starting with industrially obtainable butyric acid,
p-methoxy-α-hydroxybutyrophenone and
p-methoxy-α-acetoxybutyrophenone were prepared after several processes, to which anisole was condensed, with conc. sulfuric acid as the condensing agent, to yield α, α-dianisyl-β-butanone. The preparation of 4, 4′-dihydroxy-α, β-diethylstilbene, which possesses an estrogenic activity, starting with butyric acid and using the above butanone as the intermediate, was successfully concluded. Condensation of anisole to α, α-dianisyl-β-ethylbutanol, obtained by reacting ethylmagnesium bromide to α, α-dianisyl-β-butanone, with conc. sulfuric acid as the condensing agent, resulted in the formation of 4, 4′-dimethoxy-α, β-diethylstilbene.

It was assumed that the preparation of testosterone via 3-hydroxy-17-amino-
Δ5, 6-androstene was advantageous and therefore, Leuckart reaction was applied to
trans-dehydroandrosterone by which 3-hydronxy-17-formamino-
Δ5, 6-androstene was obtained in approximately 90% yield dy a hitherto unknown method. Its oxidation yielded 3-keto-17-formamino-androstene.

It was assumed that the monochloro compound (I), m.p. 193-194°, obtained from
dl-
threo- and
dl-
erythro-1-phenyl-2-aminopropane-1, 3-diol hydrochloride is the
threo compound. Acetylation (II) of this monochloro compound, followed by saponification (III→IV), yielded an
N-acetyl
erythro compound (V). The mechanism of this reaction was assumed to be one example of a participation of acyl group in replacement reaction, probably via oxozalidinium compound (III). By the reactions described in the Reports I and II, it has become possible for a reciprocal inversion to occur between an
erythro and a
threo compound, as shown in the accompanying Tables.

It was assumed that the monochloro compound (II), m. p. 201-202°, obtained by the respective application of thionyl chloride to L(-)-ephedrine and L(+)-ψ-ephedrine was the
threo compound, and the mechanism of the ethylenimine cyclization and its cleavage are discussed. It was considered essential that the reaction which yielded
N-acetyl L-ephedrine by the acetylation and saponification of this monochloro compound had to pass through an oxazolidinium compound. An advantageous rearrangement process whereby L (+)-ψ-ephedrine or a mixture of L(+)-ψ-ephedrine and L(-)-ephedrine was led to L(-)-ephedrine has been described.

Matsukawa has already reported that acetylation of γ-aceto-γ-chloropropyl alcohol (V) with acetic anhydride gave three isomers, 2-methyl-2-acetoxy-3-chlorotetrahyd-rofuran (VIII), 2-methyl-2-hydroxy-3-acetyl-3-chlorotetrahydrofuran (II) and γ-aceto-γ-chloropropyl acetate (VI). However, authors confirmed from infrared absorption spectra that only (VI) would be obtained in this case. In a similar manner, the compound, obtained by the treatment of (V) with benzoyl chloride, is not 2-methyl-2-hydroxy-3-benzoyl-3-chlorotetrahydrofuran (XIII) but γ-aceto-γ-chloropropyl benzoate (XVIII). Following the procedure for α-aceto-γ-acetoxypropyl [2-methyl-4-aminopyrimidyl-(5)]-methyl-dithiocarbamate (VII), SB
1 (IV) was synthesized from α-aceto-γ-benzoxypropyl [2-methyl-4-aminopyrimidyl-(5)]-methyl-dithiocarbamate (XIV) obtained from (XVIII)

An almost pure α-aceto-γ-hydroxypropyl [2-methyl-4-aminopyrimidyl-(5)]-methyl-dithiocarbarnate (VI) is obtained in an approximately quantitative yield by standing the aqueous solution of ammonium [2-methyl-4-aminopyrimidyl-(5)]-methyl-dithiocarbamate-(I), obtained by the condensation of CS

4)
2S, or (NH
4)HS to 2-methyl-4-amino 5-aminomethylpyrimidine (IX), with the addition of an aqueous solution of γ-aceto-γ-chloropropyl alcohol (V). In this case, the use of
O-acetate (II) or
O-benzoate (VII) in place of (V) results in exactly the same reaction taking place to yield α-aceto-γ-acetoxy(or benzoxy)-propyl [2-methyl-4-aminopyrimidyl-(5)]-methyl-dithiocarbamate (III or VIII). The same result can be obtained by reacting together (V), (II) or (VII) with (IX), CS
2 and NH
3, but it seems more appropriate to assume that this reaction occurs by way of (I) as an intermediate.

A new colorimetric method for the determination of
m-aminophenol present in sodium
p-aminosalicylate (PAS) has been devised. To a neutral solution containing 1mg. PAS and less than 50 γ of
m-aminophenol in 1cc. of solution are added 0.2cc. of 27% ammonia water and 0.6cc. of 35% formaldehyde solution and, after about 5 minutes, 0.1cc. of quinone imide reagent (0.1% butanolic solution of 2, 6-dichloroquinone monochlorimide) is added. This mixture is diluted with distilled water to 5cc., shaken thoroughly and allowed to stand for 1.5hours. The extinction of this colored solution at 590 mμ is measured. The concentration of
m-aminophenol in the sample solution is obtained by comparison with the extinction of a standard solution of PAS and
m-aminophenol. When the amount of
m-aminophenol in the sample is less than 5 γ against 1mg. of PAS, the sample solution is so adjusted as to contain 10mg. of PAS in 1cc. of solntion. In this case, 1.4cc. of formaldehyde solution is used, instead of 0.6cc., to minimize the effet of PAS on the coloration of
m-aminophenol.
