The synthesis of 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis-(p-cyanophenyl)-ethane was carried out with the condensation product of chloral and toluene as starting material. This product was converted, through the corresponding tetraacetate, to 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis-(p-aldehydophenyl)-ethane which in turn reacted with hydroxylamine to give the dioxime. The subsequent dehydration of the latter gave rise to the desired dinitrile. The corresponding dichloro derivatives of the oxime and nitrile were also prepared.


In pursuing our investigation out the antimony analogues of certain nitrogen ring-systems, we Lave now succeeded in obtaining derivatives of dilhydrostibacridines, of when some of the corresponding arsenic compounds have been studied recently by Gump and Stolzenburg. The starting material for the work was o -aminodiphenylmethane obtained from the corresponding nitro derivative when, in turn, was prepared from o -nitrobenzyl chloride and benzene by Taneseseu's modification of the Friedel-Crafts reaction.

The chemical composition and the 13C n.m.r. spectra of heparin oligosaccharides (essentially octasaccharides), having high affinity for antithrombin III and high anti-(Factor Xa) activity, prepared by three independent approaches (extraction, partial deaminative cleavage with HNO2 and partial depolymerization with bacterial heparinase), leading to different terminal residues, have been studied and compared with those of the corresponding inactive species. Combined wit chemical data, the spectra of the active oligosaccharides and of their fragmentation products afforded information on composition and sequence. The three types of active oligosaccharides were shown to have the common hexasaccharide core I-Aa-G-As*-Is-As, where I and alpha-L-idopyranosyl-uronic acid, Aa = 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranose, G = beta-D-glucopyranosyl-uronic acid, Is = alpha-L-idopyranosyluronic acid 2-O-sulphate, As = 2-deoxy-2-sulphamino-alpha-D-glucopyranose 6-O-sulphate. The fourth residue (As*) is an unusually substituted amino sugar resistant to mild deamination. The 13C spectra of the active species are characterized by signals from the above atypical amino sugar, the most evident of which is at 57.7 p.p.m. These signals, compared with those of appropriate synthetic model compounds, are compatible with the recently proposed 3-O-sulphation of the residue As* [Lindahl, Bäckström, Thunberg & Leder (1980) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 77, 6551-6555].

Antithrombin III (ATIII) and heparin cofactor II (HCII) are currently thought to be the most important protein mediators of the anticoagulant and antithrombotic activities of glycosamino-glycans. A simple, quantitative method for assessing the affinity of a protein for a sulphated polymer in the liquid phase, based on competition with immobilised heparin, has been developed. Using this technique, the binding of ATIII and HCII to a wide range of glycosaminoglycans and other sulphated polymers have been compared, and the contributions to binding of size, degree of sulphation and backbone structure of the polymers analysed.In the presence of the high protein concentrations found in plasma, unfractionated heparin inhibited the binding of ATIII to immobilised heparin with a Ki of 1 x 10-6. Binding was destroyed by N-desulphation. 1 Results with a range of low molecular weight (LMW) heparins and heparan sulphates are consistent with the view that they all contain the ATIII-binding sequence, but at a lower molar ratio than heparin. Highly sulphated synthetic polymers such as dextran sulphate bound ATIII by a different mechanism, which was molecular weight-dependent.The affinity of HCII for heparins increased markedly with heparin chain length. Binding was largely, but not entirely, mediated by sulphate residues. HCII bound to heparan and dermatan sulphates with lower affinities than to heparin, and to synthetic sulphated polymers with similar or higher affinities. Pentosan polysulphate (SP54) bound HCII as effectively as did heparin. Binding of HCII to dextran sulphate was highly dependent on molecular weight. The affinity of HCII for a sulphated polymer appears to depend both on its chain length and density of sulphation.Thus the profiles of binding of ATIII and HCII to glycosaminoglycans and other sulphated polymers are quite different. This technique is useful both for investigating the interactions of existing therapeutic anticoagulants and assessing new products.

AbstractStarting from disodium 5-cyanoisothiazoledithiolate som e new substituted derivatives of the tetrathiafulvalene and some metal 1,2-dithiolenes with at least an isothiazolo-ring have been prepared. From these com pounds a number of conductive cation radical salts have been obtained.
