JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAqueous solution of ammonium carbonate, sodium carbonate, ammonia water, or sodium hydroxide was added to the aqueous solution of cadmium nitrate (tetrahydrate) and cadmium carbonate or hydroxide so formed was submitted to pyrolysis. With the four kinds of cadmium oxide (CdO (I), (II), (III), (IV)) thereby obtained, bulk density, surface area, and reduction velocity with hydrogen were examined, and the oxide was used as a catalyst in the catalytic vapor-phase decomposition of isopropyl alcohol. It was thereby found that CdO (I), obtained by the pyrolysis of cadmium carbonate prepared with ammonium carbonate as the precipitation agent, had the largest surface area, was the most active in reduction with hydrogen, and dehydrogenation of the alcohol was the most efficient. On the other hand, CdO (IV), obtained by pyrolysis of cadmium hydroxide prepared with sodium hydroxide as the precipitation agent, had the smallest surface area, was consequently most inactive in reduction with hydrogen, and dehydrogenation ability of the alcohol was the smallest.View full abstractDownload PDF (1318K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSCrude drugs and plants, numbering 229 kinds, were examined for principles having uterus contracting action and it was found that an extract of Lespedeza bicolor var. iaponica NAKAI (family Leguminosae) showed a comparatively strong action. From the result of various tests, the active principle of this plant was assumed to be an alkaloid and the principle was extracted y the usual method, affording white prisms melting at 47-48°. A molecular formula of C12H16N2 was given for this substance from elemental analyticalvalues and molecular weight determination. There has been no report of identification of this kind of a substance fro the Lespedeza sp. and the substance was tentatively named alkaloid L.
Ultraviolet absorption spectrum and various tests indicated the alkaloid L to possess an indole ring and a side chain of dimethylaminoethyl group was assumed to be attached to its 3-position. The alkaloid L was therefore derived to its methiodide and it was found that this methiodide was identical with N, N-dimethyltryptamine methiodide in respect to its melting point, elemental analyses, and infrared absorption spctrum. Therefore, the alkaloid L would be N, N-dimethyltryptamine. A dose of 50mγ/cc. of this alkaloid contracted excised uterus of a hamster. The effect of N, N-dimethyltryptamine on the tryptophan demand of Lactobacillus arabinosus, with tryptophan as the essential growth factor, was examined by microbiological assay but no effect was found to be exerted on fungal growth.View full abstractDownload PDF (601K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSFor the purpose of preparing cycleanine (I), an attempt was made to cyclize the Schiff base (VII) by the Pomeranz-Fritsch reaction to 1-(4-bromobenzyl)-6, 7-dimethoxy-8-hydroxyisoquinoline (VIII) but instead of the anticipated substance (VIII), 6, 7-dimethoxy-8-hydroxyisoquinoline (IX) was obtained, formed by the liberation of the p-bromobenzyl group. The structure of (IX) was confirmed by the formation of anhalidine (2-methyl-6, 7-dimethoxy-8-hydroxy-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydroisoquinoline) (XI) by reduction of its methiodide (X) with tin and hydrochloric acid.
In connection with the foregoing, it was found that the Bischler-Napieralski reaction starting with N-formyl-3, 4-dimethoxy-5-benzyloxyphenethylamine (XIX) gave 6-benzyloxy-7, 8-dimethoxy-3, 4-dihydroisoquinoline (XX), and that the reduction and debenzylation of its methiodide (XXI) afforded 2-methyl-6-hydroxy-7, 8-dimethoxy-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrahydroisoquinoline (XXIII), an isomer of (XI).View full abstractDownload PDF (966K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSA total of 73 kinds of compounds, including 11 derivatives of alkylcoumarin, 2 of 2-thiocoumarin, 3 of oxocoumarin, 4 of 6-nitrocoumarin, 14 of aminocoumarin, 9 of hydroxycoumarin, 9 of carboxylic acid, 9 of naphthopyrone, and 12 of coumarin homologs were prepared and their structure-activity relationship was examined by screening the activity of body temperature depression with albino rats. In general, almost all coumarin derivatives showed the activity and coumarin itself had a comparatively strong effect. In methylcoumarin derivatives, the effect was generally stronger when the methyl group was in the α-pyrone ring than in the benzene ring. In 3-alkylcoumarin derivatives, methyl and propyl derivatives had strong activity, while ethyl and butyl derivatives had weaker action. Saturation of the double bond in 3-4 position in coumarin and 4-methylcoumarin with hydrogen decreased the effect, the change of the ketone group in 2-position to thione group failed to show any change in effect, and introduction of a nitro or amino group in 6-position decreased the effect, the amino group being affected less. However, its acetylated or benzoylated compounds had only a weak effect. In general, derivation of the amino group to its hydrochloride increased the effect. Introduction of a carboxyl in the 3-position increased toxicity, while this group in 4- or 6-position decreased both the toxicity and effect. Oxocoumarin, hydroxycoumarin, and naphthopyrone derivatives had only a weak effect. The change of α-pyrone to γ-pyrone ring to form chromone left majority of the effect intact but the effect was very weak in isocoumarincarboxylic acid derivatives, coumarinic acid, phthalide, coumarone, 2-acetylcoumarone, coumarane, coumalinic acid, chelidonic acid, and diethyl chelidonate.View full abstractDownload PDF (1065K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAmine derivatives of sugars and polyhydric alcohols were prepared and their utility as the protective coating agent was examined. The amine derivatives of sugars were prepared either by refluxing glucose, xylose, or lactose with various amines in alcohol or by the application of various amines to sucrose, dextrin, and mannitol p-toluenesulfonates. Of these various amine derivatives, dodecylamine N-lactoside and N-xyloside were the only ones that possessed resistance to water, solubility in gastric juice, and ability to form a membrane. These were used as a coating on starch-lactose tablets and their resistance to water and solubility in gastric juice were tested by measuring the duration of disintegration in distilled water and simulated gastric fluid. Both derivatives were found to be excellent agent for a protective coating.View full abstractDownload PDF (638K) -

Released on J-STAGE: February 19, 2010
JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe Formosan cobra venom was purified by fractional precipitation with acetone, ammonium sulfate, and ethanol, and a homogeneous substance, assumed to be lecithinase, was obtained. Its minimum lethal dose in mouse was 12-13γ/g. and its lecithinase action was approx. 16 times that of the crude venom. Its molecular weight was calculated as 28, 500 (osmotic pressure method). Aspartic acid was detected as the N-terminal amino acid and aspartic acid, glutamic acid, and glycine as the C-terminal acid. C terminal aspartic and glutamic acids are present as asparagine and glutamine, and the carboxyl group in the β-position in the N-terminal aspartic acid is thought to be present as an amide form or in peptide bonding. From the result of determination of these terminal amino acids, the peptide chain constituting the leci thinase is assumed to bebranched. The composite amino acids of the lecithinase are shown in Table III from which it can be seen that all the nitrogen in the lecithinase are only from these amino acids. Since the lecithinase gives a weak positive Molish reaction, presence of a sugar component can be assumed but the amount must be very small since the lecithinase is composed almost entirely of these amino acids.
Comparison of these results with the properties of crotoxin obtained by Fraenkel-Conrat and others indicate difference in the terminal amino acids and amino acid composition and, therefore, the lecithinase-active substance in crotoxin must have a different structure from the lecithinase in Formosan cobra venom.View full abstractDownload PDF (958K) -

As a result, N, N-dimethylcoclaurine hydromethine (VII) was identified as the phenolic base. The nonphenolic base was examined by paper chromatography and it was found to be a mixture of several decomposed bases, which could not be isolated into each unity. From the Rf values, however, the presence of N, O-dimethylarmepavine hydromethine (V) was assumed. It follows that in this reaction, Emde decomposition occurs besides the ordinary cleavage of the ether oxygen forming the diphenyl ether linkage and the base is decomposed to the methyl hydromethine stage.View full abstractDownload PDF (478K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSBenzaldehyde phenylhydrazone and acetaldehyde phenylhydrazone reacted with formamide when they were heated to form chiefly 1-phenyl-1, 2, 4-triazole and the corresponding N-alkylformamide The reaction of benzaldehyde azine and formamide afforded 1, 2, 4-triazole and N-benzylformamide. In these reactions, it appears that an intermediate of hydrazine or formylhydrazine is formed during the course of triazole formation and cleavage reaction occurs at the =C=N- bond with reductive condensation.View full abstractDownload PDF (377K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSDetermination of calcium content in the casein coagulated by rennet or pepsin indicated that the amount of calcium bonded increases in proportion to pH when the application of the two enzymes to milk is made within the range of isoelectric point of casein to pH 7.0, with smaller content in milk serum. In the milk of same pH, coagulation time changes with the strength of enzyme activity but the content of calcium in coagulated casein remains constant. Calcium in coagulated casein dissolves out reversibly by acidification and there is no great variation of pH in the course of milk coagulation by the two enzymes. Ultraviolet absorption spectra of coagulated casein by the two enzymes and that of natural casein were measured. There was no difference among the three at pH 2.0 but at pH 11.0, the absorption band of the coagulated casein at around 276-290mμ was different from that of natural casein.View full abstractDownload PDF (641K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSSpecific gravity and dielectric constant of polyethylene glycol and allied substances were measured. The specific gravity of a mixture of polyethylene glycol and water, and of glycerol and water increases with increasing concentration (Fig. 2), and the maximum value of specific gravity of polyethylene glycol-water system was at 60-70% concentration (Fig. 1). It is therefore assumed that the mixture of polyethylene glycol and water is in strongest association in this concentration range.
Measurement of dielectric constant was made by the phase compensation method, using the cell shown in Fig. 4. By plotting the dielectric constant against concentration, the curve shown in Fig. 3. was obtained. The dielectric constant-concentration curve was almost straight for the polyethylene glycol 400-water and of glycerol-water mixtures, indicating that association is unlikely in these cases. A specific curve was seen in polyethylene glycol-water mixture in the range of 50-90% concentration. From this fact, polyethylene glycol-water mixture is in association at 50-90% concentration and it becomes the maximum at around 60%.View full abstractDownload PDF (361K) -
