Six new N-acetylglycine amides and bisamides were prepared by reacting N-acetylglycine with different isocyanates including, hexamethylene diisocyanate, bis(4-isocyanatophenyl)methane, toluene 2,4-diisocyanate, 1,3-bis(2-isocyanatopropan-2-yl)benzene, phenyl isocyanate and 2-naphthyl isocyanate to furnish amides 1-6. The gelation ability of compounds (1-6) was investigated using fourteen different solvents including polar, non-polar organic solvents. Only compound 1 solidified toluene. Characterization of compounds (1-6) was done using spectroscopic methods, HRESI-MS, FTIR, 1H- and 13C-NMR. The morphology of toluene organogel (as xerogel) was determined through scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Background: Osteoporosis is detrimental to aged women’s health care. We previously reported that Hyuganatsu orange (Citrus Tamurana) contains active substances that inhibit osteoclast activities. Prior to conducting a human study, we sought to identify the biological active substance in the Hyuganatsu orange which suppresses osteoclast formation.Methods: We isolated five fractions from a Hyuganatsu orange extract according to molecular weight. Each fraction was tested to determine its suppressive effect on the formation of osteoclasts in rats. We also used high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), infra-red (IR), and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy to evaluate its chemical structure. Data was recorded as mean ± standard error of the mean. The Mann-Whitney test was used, and a p-value of <.05 was considered statistically significant.Results: The highest and lowest molecular weight fractions showed significant suppression activity on rat osteoclast formation (p < .05). The lowest molecular weight fraction was identified as hesperidin using thin layer chromatography. Additionally, IR absorption revealed that the highest molecular weight fraction was not a flavonoid. With regard to chemical structure, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy suggested that the highest molecular weight fraction had signals compatible with a polysaccharide such as galacturonic acid.Conclusions: Hyuganatsu orange contains a biological active substance other than hesperidin that may be a polysaccharide and may suppress osteoclast formation.Key Words: Citrus Tamurana, TRAP positive cell, Polysaccharides, Rat osteoclast cell, in vitro study
