Melicopine, melicopidine, and melicopicine are each oxidized by nitric acid to the same acid, C11H9O3N. Decarboxylation gives 1-methyl-4-quinolone (I) and the acid is shown to be 1-methyl-4-quinolone-3-carboxylic acid (II). The 3- and 6- mononitro-, 3,6-dinitro-, and 2-hydroxy-3,6-dinitro- derivatives of 1-methyl-4-quinolone have been prepared and the orientation of the substituents established by oxidation of the hydroxydinitro- compound to 5-nitro-N-methylanthranilic acid. 1-Methy1-4-quinolone-3-carboxylic acid is readily converted to a tetrahydro- derivative. The carboxyl groups in II and in the tetrahydro- acid are reduced by zinc and hydrochloric acid to methyl groups.

A series of compounds related to 1,2-dichloro-4-benzenesulfonamido-5-nitrobenzene has been synthesized. These included derivatives in which ionizable groups had been placed in the para position of the benzenesulfonamido portion to confer on the compounds water solubility at physiological pH. Thus, carboxyl and quaternary ammonium groupings were introduced in this position. Water solubility was also conferred by introduction at the same position of non-ionizable groups such as polyhydroxyalkylamido groups. Additional relatives of the parent compound in which the chlorine atoms were replaced by methyl groups, and in which para-substituted benzenesulfonamido groups replaced those in the 4 and 5 positions, were synthesized. These compounds were tested for their ability to cure permanently the spontaneous mammary cancers of two strains of mice. All compounds were tested in combination with 1,2-dimethyl-4-(p-carboxyphenylazo)-5-hydroxybenzene. The most active substance found was 1,2-dichloro-4-(p-carboxybenzenesulfonamido)-5-nitrobenzene.

Data derived from the 13C n.m.r. spectra of seven neutral cis-dimethylplatinum(II) derivatives of the type cis-(CH3)2PtL2 and cis-(CH3)2Pt(L—L) (where L and L—L are neutral donors) are discussed and compared with data derived from the 1H n.m.r. spectra of the complexes. Simultaneous variations in L or L—L reveal that the n.m.r. trans-influence rather than the n.m.r. cis-influence is dominant. The suggestion that the n.m.r. cis- and trans-influences may be additive is discussed. In contrast with data obtained by other workers, it is shown that the 1JCH values of the platinum methyl groups are essentially insensitive to variations in the remaining ligands.

Several 5-cinnamoyl- and 5-(ethoxycarbonyl)-6-styryl derivatives of 4-aryl-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-ones were obtained and their physicochemical properties were investigated. The introduction of alkyl substituent in position 1 of dihydropyrimidine ring was shown to promote the Claisen-Schmidt reaction on acetyl group only; without the alkyl both acetyl and 6-methyl groups participate in the reaction.

The method of Kouklovsky and coworkers for the enantioselective alkylation of cyclic N-naphthoyl derivatives of amino acids was used to introduce a 13C label into one of the two enantiotopic methyl groups of 2-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) by retentive alkylation of L-alanine with 13CH3I. Conditions were identified for optimization of yield and enantiomeric purity, and the absolute configuration of the labelled product was established.

Revised structures for 4-bromohexahydroechinulin and 6-nitrohexahydroechinulin have been established using 13C nmr spectroscopy. For this purpose the substituent parameter for the nitro group at a site flanked by two methyl groups has been measured. Inconsistencies in previous data on alkyl indoles in comparison with hexahydroechinulin suggested a reassignment of the C4 and C6 signals in 5-methylindole, which we have proven by single frequency spin-decoupling experiments. The original data on methyl indoles has been retabulated to include the above reassignments and others recently reported by Gribble et al. A more consistent and reliable set of methyl substituent parameters is thereby obtained.

Carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, in contrast to 1H n.m.r. spectroscopy, has been shown to provide a clear distinction in a variety of nitrogen heterocyclic systems between O-methyl and nuclear N-methyl groups. Methoxy groups were found to occur in the range δ�53.20-61.87, nuclear N-methyl groups at 34.29-49.62, and methylthio groups at 12.35-14.55 for the compounds examined in (D)chloroform. Data for N- and O-methyl derivatives of pyridin-2- and -4-ol,* the corresponding pyrimidines, and some sulfur analogues have been compared with those for the unmethylated parent compounds.
