Alkylation of 7-ethyl-4-(4-ethylphenyl)-2,3-dibromo-1-naphthol (I) with ethyl esters of ω-bromoalkanoic acids XX-XXIII in a non-aqueous medium gave the 1-substitution derivatives II, IV, VI and VIII which were hydrolyzed to the acids III, V, VII and IX. The acid III was used for syntheses of the esters X-XIII and amides XIV-XVIII. Compounds II-XVIII exhibited moderate antineoplastic effects in animals with transplanted tumours; best results were observed with the compound II.

The reaction of five amphipathic-type thioesters, CH3(CH2) m COS(CH2) n COONa (m + n = 12), with cysteine hexyl, butyl, and ethyl esters were studied in aqueous medium. Compounds with the thioester group in close proximity to the carboxylate moiety (m = 10, n = 2) afforded amides in almost quantitative yield, whereas no reaction proceeded by using compounds with the thioester group distant from the carboxylate. In contrast, no clear difference in yield was observed among the five amphipathic-type thioesters upon reaction with valine hexyl ester. The results indicate that the reaction is affected by both the position of the thioester group and the hydrophilic/hydrophobic properties of the amino acid side chain.

Hydroxy derivatives I, II, III, XVII and XX were oxidized to give the respective aldehydes IV, V, VI, XVIII and XXI which were further converted by Wittig-Horner reaction into unsaturated methyl and ethyl esters. Removal of the acetal protecting group in position 3 afforded methylesters X, XXIV and XXXVI and ethyl esters XIV, XXV and XXXVII. Compounds XXIV, XXV, XXXVI and XXXVII were converted into the corresponding hemisuccinates XXVIII, XXIX, XL and XLI and β-D-glucosides XXXII, XXXIII, XLIV and XLV.

SUMMARY:The anticonvulsant activity of the ethyl esters of the major valproic acid metabolites was assessed against minimal pentylenetetrazol seizures in adult male ICR mice. The ethyl ester 3-hydroxy-propylpentanoic acid was found to possess significant anticonvulsant activity.

Alkylation of heterocyclic bases with azidomethyloxirane (I) under basic catalysis with potassium or cesium carbonate afforded N-(3-azido-2-hydroxypropyl) derivatives II. Hydrogenation of these compounds over palladium on carbon gave the corresponding 3-amino-2-hydroxypropyl derivatives III. The same compounds III were prepared by alkylation of heterocyclic bases with phthalimidomethyloxirane (VII) in the presence of cesium carbonate and subsequent reaction of the formed N-(3-phthalimido-2-hydroxypropyl) derivatives VIII with hydrazine. The phthalimido derivatives VIII are easily hydrolyzed already in weakly alkaline aqueous medium to give 9-[3-(o-carboxybenzoylamino)-2-hydroxypropyl] derivatives IX and X.
