The efficient synthesis of two new stereoisomeric 3-aminocyclooctanetriols and new halocyclitol derivatives of them starting from cis,cis-1,3-cyclooctadiene are reported. Reduction of cyclooctene endoperoxide, obtained by photooxygenation of cis,cis-1,3-cyclooctadiene, with zinc yielded a cyclooctene diol followed by acetylation of the hydroxyl group, which gave dioldiacetate by OsO4/NMO oxidation. The cyclooctane dioldiacetate prepared was converted to the corresponding cyclic sulphate via the formation of a cyclic sulphite in the presence of catalytic RuO4. Reaction of this cyclic sulphate with a nucleophilic azide followed by the reduction of the azide group provided the target, 3-aminocyclooctanetriol. The second key compound, bromotriol, was prepared by epoxidation of the cyclooctene diol with m-chloroperbenzoic acid followed by hydrolysis with HBr(g) in methanol. Treatment of bromotriol with NaN3 and the reduction of the azide group yielded the other 3-aminocyclooctanetriol desired. Hydrolysis of the epoxides with HCl(g) in methanol gave stereospecifically new chlorocyclooctanetriols.

Partial hydrolysis of per-O-acetyl- and per-O-benzoyl derivatives of 1,6-anhydro-β-D-glucopyranose with methanolic hydrogen chloride and hydrazine hydrate was investigated. The acyl group at C(3) is of substantial influence on the course of hydrolysis. The esterified hydroxyl group at C(3) was found to be most stable on acid hydrolysis with methanolic hydrogen chloride when compared with that at C(2), or C(4); on the other hand, this ester group is the most labile upon hydrolysis with hydrazine hydrate. Selectivity of the respective ester groups towards hydrolysis made it possible to prepare all variations of acetyl and benzoyl derivatives of 1,6-anhydro-β-D-glucopyranose.

Seventeen methanol extracts from different plant parts of five different Cassia species, including C. timorensis, C. grandis, C. fistula, C. spectabilis, and C. alata were screened against acetylcholinesterase (AChE). C. timorensis extracts were found to exhibit the highest inhibition towards AChE whereby the leaf, stem, and flower methanol extracts showed 94–97% inhibition. As far as we are aware, C. timorensis is one of the least explored Cassia spp. for bioactivity. Further fractionation led to the identification of six compounds, isolated for the first time from C. timorensis: 3-methoxyquercetin (1), benzenepropanoic acid (2), 9,12,15-octadecatrienoic acid (3), β-sitosterol (4), stigmasterol (5), and 1-octadecanol (6). Compound 1 showed moderate inhibition towards AChE (IC50: 83.71 μM), while the other compounds exhibited poor to slightly moderate AChE inhibitory activity. Molecular docking revealed that the methoxy substitution of 1 formed a hydrogen bond with TYR121 at the peripheral anionic site (PAS) and the hydroxyl group at C5 formed a covalent hydrogen bond with ASP72. Additionally, the OH group at the C3′ position formed an interaction with the protein at the acyl pocket (PHE288). This possibly explains the activity of 1 in blocking the entry of acetylcholine (ACh, the neurotransmitter), thus impeding the hydrolysis of ACh.

AbstractNineteen derivatives of coumarin were tested on the scavenging of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, hydroxyl and superoxide anion radicals. It was found that antioxidant activity exhibits only such coumarins that contain hydroxyl groups. The derivatives without hydroxyl group showed very low antioxidant effectiveness or they were ineffective. On the other hand, the greatest antioxidant effectiveness was exhibited by coumarin derivatives that contained hydroxyl groups in 6 or 8 position, whereas the effectiveness of derivatives with one hydroxyl group in 4, 5 or 7 position was very low. Based on scavenging of the above-mentioned radicals, it was found that the most effective scavengers were 7,8-dihydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (i.e. compound that contains two hydroxyl groups in 7 and 8 positions), (7,8-dihydroxy-2-oxo-2H-chromen-4-yl)acetic acid (this compound contains in addition to two hydroxyl groups in 7 and 8 positions also one hydroxyl group in the acidic residue), esculetin (6,7-dihydroxycoumarin) and 6,7-dihydroxy-4-methylcoumarin.

1. ADP-ribose is found in rat liver nuclei covalently bound to histone F1, to a non-histone protein, and to a small peptide. 2. A single unit of ADP-ribose, covalently bound to phosphoserine, was isolated from an enzymic hydrolysate of histone F1. ADP-ribose-bearing peptides were isolated from a tryptic digest of the histone. 3. It is proposed that the 1′-hydroxyl group of ADP-ribose is linked to the phosphate group of phosphoserine in histone F1. 4. The incorporation of 32P into ADP-ribose on histone F1 a parallels the DNA content through the cell cycle. An increased incorporation of the nucleotide into the other derivatives is observed during S phase. 5. It is suggested that the ADP-ribose derivative of histone F1 has a role in maintaining the G0 state and that one or both of the other derivatives is concerned with control of DNA synthesis.

1. The kinetics of the enzymic transfer of sulphate from adenosine 3′-phosphate 5′[35S]-sulphatophosphate to derivatives of l-tyrosine were investigated with a partially purified enzyme preparation from rat liver. 2. At pH7.5 and 37°C the Km values for l-tyrosine methyl ester and adenosine 3′-phosphate 5′[35S]-sulphatophosphate are 0.3mm and 8nm respectively. The Km value for either substrate is independent of the concentration of the other. The available data are consistent with the sulphation reaction proceeding according to a rapid-equilibrium random Bi Bi mechanism. 3. From the effect of pH on the Km and Vmax. values for l-tyrosine methyl ester, tyramine and N-acetyl-l-tyrosine ethyl ester it is concluded that the enzyme is specific for substrate molecules with a free and unprotonated amino group and an un-ionized hydroxyl group. 4. The only ionizing group that can be positively attributed to the enzyme appears to influence the binding of adenosine 3′-phosphate 5′[35S]-sulphatophosphate and has an apparent pK value of approx. 9.5. It is suggested that this group may be an essential thiol. 5. The enzyme is inhibited by iodoacetamide at pH7.5 and 30°C and this inhibition is prevented by the presence of adenosine 3′-phosphate 5′[35S]-sulphatophosphate but not by l-tyrosine methyl ester.


The recent discoveries of hydroxylysine, hydroxyvaline, and hydroxyaminobutyric acid, described in the earlier papers of this series, together with the discovery a few years earlier of hydroxyglutamic acid by Dakin, lead to the conception that there is to be found among the hydrolysis products of the proteins a hydroxyl derivative corresponding to every (or nearly every) nonhydroxyamino-acid that has been isolated. Yet, so far, the hydroxyl derivative of leucine, perhaps the most widely distributed hydrolysis product of the proteins, has not been discovered. In searching for such a substance, certain possibilities of chemical change must be taken into account. It is known that in the presence of hot solutions of strong acids, such as the 25 per cent. sulphuric acid used for the hydrolysis of proteins, hydroxy derivatives of long-chain substances tend to undergo isomeric change, with the wandering of the hydroxyl group from one position to another. Supposing, now, that hydroxyleucine exists among the hydrolysis products of proteins, and that the hydroxyl group is in the β position,

This chapter presents the equations and calculations for energy approximation. It establishes the estimates (261) and (262) of the Main Lemma (10.1) for continuous solutions; these estimates state that we are able to accurately prescribe the energy that the correction adds to the solution, as well as bound the difference between the time derivatives of these two quantities. The chapter also introduces the proposition for prescribing energy, followed by the relevant computations. Each integral contributing to the other term can be estimated. Another proposition for estimating control over the rate of energy variation is given. Finally, the coarse scale material derivative is considered.

 Incorporating selenium metal bonded to the pyridine nucleus was achieved by the reaction of selenium metal with 2-chloropyridine carbonitrile 1 in the presence of sodium borohydride as reducing agent. The resulting non isolated selanyl sodium salt was subjected to react with various α-halogenated carbonyl compounds to afford the selenyl pyridine derivatives 3a-f  which compounds 3a-d underwent Thorpe-Ziegler cyclization to give 1-amino-2-substitutedselenolo[2,3-b]pyridine compounds 4a-d, while the other compounds 3e,f failed to be cyclized. Basic hydrolysis of amino selenolo[2,3-b]pyridine carboxylate 4a followed by decarboxylation furnished the corresponding amino selenolopyridine compound 6 which was used as a versatile precursor for synthesis of other heterocyclic compound 7-16. All the newly synthesized compounds were established by elemental and spectral analysis (IR, 1H NMR) in addition to mass spectra for some of them hoping these compounds afforded high biological activity.

Background:: This article concentrates on the processes occurring in the medium around the cancer cell and the transfer of glycoside amides through their cell membrane. They are obtained by modification of natural glycoside-nitriles (cyano-glycosides). Hydrolysis of starting materials in the blood medium and associated volume around physiologically active healthy and cancer cells, based on quantum-chemical semi-empirical methods, is considered. Objective:: Based on the fact that the cancer cell feeds primarily on carbohydrates, it is likely that organisms have adapted to take food containing nitrile glycosides and / or modified forms to counteract "external" bioactive activity. Cancers, for their part, have evolved to create conditions around their cells that eliminate their active apoptotic forms. This is far more appropriate for them than changing their entire enzyme regulation to counteract it. In this way, it protects itself and the gene sets and develops according to its instructions. Methods:: Derived pedestal that closely defines the processes of hydrolysis in the blood, the transfer of a specific molecular hydrolytic form to the cancer cell membrane and with the help of time-dependent density-functional quantum- chemical methods, its passage and the processes of re-hydrolysis within the cell itself, to forms causing chemical apoptosis of the cell - independent of its non-genetic set, which seeks to counteract the process. Results:: Used in oncology it could turn a cancer from a lethal to a chronic disease (such as diabetes). The causative agent and conditions for the development of the disease are not eliminated, but the amount of cancer cells could be kept low for a long time (even a lifetime). Conclusion:: The amide derivatives of nitrile glycosides exhibit anti-cancer activity, the cancer cell probably seeks to displace hydrolysis of these derivatives in a direction that would not pass through its cell membrane and the amide- carboxyl derivatives of nitrile glycosides could deliver extremely toxic compounds within the cancer cell itself and thus block and / or permanently damage its normal physiology.
