Oxidation of 19β,28-epoxy-18α-oleanan-3-one (1) with chromium(VI) oxide in acetic acid leads to the formation of the 1β,3β;19β,28-diepoxy-3-hydroxy-1,2-seco-18α-oleanano- 2,1α-lactone (2). Its structure follows from spectral data, molecular modelling. Lactone 2 was converted to its acetate 3, methyl 19β,28-epoxy-1,3-dioxo-1,2-seco-18α-oleanan-2-oate (4) and to the stereoisomers at C(3) of methyl 1,3;19β,28-diepoxy-1-oxo-1,2-seco-18α-oleanan-2-oate (6 and 7) and dimethyl 19β,28-epoxy-3-hydroxy-1,2-seco-18α-oleanan-1,2-dioate (8 and 9). Lactone 2 reacts slowly with diazomethane which is indicative for its equilibrium with a small amount of free acid. Alkaline hydrolysis of compound 2 leads to compounds 8 and 9; the reaction involves hydride transfer of a Cannizzaro reaction type. A high rotational barriers were found in compounds 8 and 9. A combination of NMR methods and molecular modelling revealed that most sterically hindered bond in both compounds is the C(1)-C(10) single bond.

The D-glucolipid designated as ustilagic acid was shown to be a mixture of partially acylated derivatives of a di-D-glucosyl-dihydroxyhexadecanoic acid. The dihydroxyhexadecanoic acid was named "ustilic acid" and its di-D-glucosyl derivative was termed "glucoustilic acid". Alkaline hydrolysis of ustilagic acid yielded glucoustilic acid, acetic acid, dextro-β-hydroxy-n-caproic acid, dextro-β-hydroxy-n-caprylic acid and a small amount of n-caproic acid. The β-hydroxy-acids were characterized as dextro-β-hydroxy-n-caprohydrazide, m.p. 131–132°C., [α]D + 15.9° (water), and dextro-β-hydroxy-n-caprylhydrazide, m.p. 127–128°C., [α]D + 12° (water). Ustilic acid, m.p. 114–115°C., [α]D − 6.3° (methanol), yielded a methyl ester, m.p. 80−81.8°C, [α]D − 0.2 (chloroform). The methyl ustilate formed a di-phenylurethane derivative, m.p. 76–77°C. The infrared spectra of crystalline and amorphous samples of ustilagic acid are given. The specific rotation of glucoustilic acid, [α]D − 11° (methanol) was that expected of β-D-glucosides and the infrared spectrum of this substance showed a marked resemblance to that of methyl-β-D-glucopyranoside.

Cooking Conditions

Untreated and hot water-treated birch (Betula pendula) sawdust were cooked by the oxygen-alkali method under the same cooking conditions (temperature = 170°C, liquor-to-wood ratio = 5 L/kg, and 19% sodium hydroxide charge on the ovendry sawdust). The pretreatment of feedstock clearly facilitated delignification. After a cooking time of 90 min, the kappa numbers were 47.6 for the untreated birch and 10.3 for the hot water-treated birch. Additionally, the amounts of hydroxy acids in black liquors based on the pretreated sawdust were higher (19.5-22.5g/L) than those in the untreated sawdust black liquors (14.8-15.5 g/L). In contrast, in the former case, the amounts of acetic acid were lower in the pretreated sawdust (13.3-14.8 g/L vs. 16.9-19.1 g/L) because the partial hydrolysis of the acetyl groups in xylan already took place during the hot water extraction of feedstock. The sulfur-free fractions in the pretreatment hydrolysates (mainly carbohydrates and acetic acid) and in black liquors (mainly lignin and aliphatic carboxylic acids) were considered as attractive novel byproducts of chemical pulping.

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.

Acids IIa-c were prepared by reactions of (4-fluoro-2-iodophenyl)acetic acid with 4-methoxythiophenol, 4-ethoxythiophenol and 4-(ethylthio)thiophenol and cyclized with polyphosphoric acid in boiling toluene to dibenzo[b,f]thiepin-10(11H)-ones IIIa-c. Reduction with sodium borohydride afforded the alcohols IVa-c which were treated with hydrogen chloride and gave the chloro derivatives Va-c. Substitution reactions with 1-methylpiperazine resulted in the title compounds Ia-c out of which the methoxy derivative Ia was transformed by demethylation with boron tribromide to the phenol Id. Compounds Ia-d are very potent neuroleptics exhibiting a clear prolongation of the central depressant and some prolongation of the cataleptic activity.

Kinetics of formation of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles from 24 substitution derivatives of O-benzoylbenzamidoxime have been studied in sulphuric acid and aqueous ethanol media. It has been found that this medium requires introduction of the Hammett H0 function instead of the pH scale beginning as low as from 0.1% solutions of mineral acids. Effects of the acid concentration, ionic strength, and temperature on the reaction rate and on the kinetic isotope effect have been followed. From these dependences and from polar effects of substituents it was concluded that along with the cyclization to 1,2,4-oxadiazoles there proceeds hydrolysis to benzamidoxime and benzoic acid. The reaction is thermodynamically controlled by the acid-base equilibrium of the O-benzylated benzamidoximes.

A new series of amino acid derivatives of quinolines was synthesized through the hydrolysis of amino acid methyl esters of quinoline carboxamides with alkali hydroxide. The compounds were purified on silica gel by column chromatography and further characterized by TLC, NMR and ESI-TOF mass spectrometry. All compounds were screened for in vitro antimicrobial activity against different bacterial strains using the microdilution method. Most of the synthesized amino acid-quinolines show more potent or equipotent inhibitory action against the tested bacteria than their correspond esters. In addition, many of them exhibit fluorescent properties and could possibly be utilized as fluorophores. Molecular docking and simulation studies of the compounds at putative bacterial target enzymes suggest that the antimicrobial potency of these synthesized analogues could be due to enzyme inhibition via their favorable binding at the fluoroquinolone binding site at the GyrA subunit of DNA gyrase and/or the ParC subunit of topoisomerase-IV.

Hydrolysis of the methyl ester (±)-threo-methyl phenidate afforded the free acid in 40% yield,viz.(±)-threo-ritalinic acid, C13H17NO2. Hydrolysis and subsequent crystallization were accomplished at pH values between 5 and 7 to yield colourless prisms which were analysed by X-ray crystallography. Crystals of (±)-threo-ritalinic acid belong to theP21/nspace group and form intermolecular hydrogen bonds. An antiperiplanar disposition of the H atoms of the (HOOC—)CH—CHpygroup (py is pyridine) was found in both the solid (diffraction analysis) and solution state (NMR analysis). It was also determined that (±)-threo-ritalinic acid conforms to the minimization of negativegauche+–gauche−interactions.
