Addition of methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-α-D-erythro-hexopyranosid-3-ulose (1) to acetonitrile in liquid ammonia at −50 to −60° in the presence of lithium amide gave, in high yield, crystalline methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-3-C-cyanomethyl-2-deoxy-α-D-arabino-hexopyranoside (2) exclusively. The proof of structure 2 is described. Debenzylidenation of 2 afforded the branched-chain cyano glycoside 3. Compound 3 was converted into its 3,4,6-tri-O-acetate (8) and 4,6-di-O-p-nitrobenzoate (9) derivatives. Catalytic hydrogenation of 3 over rhodium on alumina yielded methyl 3-C-2′-aminoethyl-2-deoxy-α-D-arabino-hexopyranoside which was characterized as its N-2,4-dinitrophenyl derivative (7).

Fully acetylated methyl β-D-hexopyranosides are oxidized by chromium trioxide in acetic acid to acetylated methyl 5-hexulosonates. Catalytic hydrogenation of these keto esters leads into the L-series. The corresponding a-D-glycosides are not oxidized in the same way, with the exception of methyl tetra-O-acetyl-α-D-idopyranoside. Both α- and β-anomers of the acetylated fnranosides are oxidized to aoetylated methyl 4-hexulosonates. The octaacetates of α- and β-lactose are similarly oxidized, the ring of the galactose moiety being opened. The methyl pyranoside of a branched-chain sugar, with no hydrogen atom on C5, is oxidized to a 4-keto ester, acetyl migration occurring from O4 to O5.

Abstract In the past, the reduction of rubber has been of special interest since Harries was of the opinion, based on his ideas on the constitution of rubber, that hydrorubber might possibly be distilled without decomposition in vacua, and therefore that its preparation would be of importance in explaining the constitution of rubber. Staudinger and Fritschi obtained a hydrorubber by catalytic reduction, which they considered to be a high molecular paraffin hydrocarbon; in the distillation it cracked and yielded low molecular cleavage products. It was concluded from this that rubber must also be a high molecular hydrocarbon. Contrary to this opinion, there was the evidence that the hydrorubber had the same appearance as rubber and dissolved readily in solvents like ether, and therefore showed essential differences from high molecular paraffins of known constitution as, for example, dimyricyl. Since hydrorubber has a branched chain, it might be thought that it differed from dimyricyl on this account. It was surprising, however, that in the reduction of butadiene rubber the hydrogenation product obtained likewise does not possess the physical properties of a high molecular paraffin hydrocarbon, although here properties similar to those of high molecular paraffins are to be expected, since a normal paraffin chain should result from the reduction of butadiene rubber. These problems were sufficient inducement for preparing hydrorubber in still another way. Berthelot had already many years ago converted rubber with hydriodic acid at an elevated temperature into paraffin hydrocarbons, which distilled above 350° without decomposition. One might assume, therefore, that there is perhaps in this substance the true hydrogenation product of rubber which was sought by Harries, whereas in catalytic hydrogenation the rubber micelle assumed by Harries is not completely split up.

Addition of methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-α-D-erythro-hexopyranosid-3-ulose (1) to excess nitromethane and 1 molar equivalent of sodium methoxide in methanol gave methyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2-deoxy-3-C-nitromethyl-α-D-ribo-hexopyranoside (2) and the arabino stereoisomer 3 in 63 and 22% yields, respectively. The proof of structure of the branched-chain deoxy nitro sugars is described. Debenzylidenation of the nitro sugars afforded the partially blocked nitro sugars 4 and 5. Catalytic hydrogenation of the latter or of 2 and 3 yielded the branched-chain aminodeoxy sugars 7 and 9 (7 characterized as its N-acetyl derivative and 9 as its N-2,4-dinitrophenyl derivative).

Abstract. Branched chain amino acids (BCAA), with vitamin B6 have been reported to improve fat metabolism and muscle synthesis. We hypothesized that supplementation with BCAA and vitamin B6 would result in more weight loss and improve body composition and blood markers related to cardiovascular diseases. Our aim was to determine whether the mentioned supplementation would affect weight loss, body composition, and cardiovascular risk factors during weight loss intervention. To this end, we performed a placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial in 42 overweight and obese women (BMI = 25–34.9 kg/m2). Taking a four-week moderate deficit calorie diet (–500 kcal/day), participants were randomized to receive BCAA (6 g/day) with vitamin B6 (40 mg/day) or placebo. Body composition variables measured with the use of bioelectrical impedance analysis, homeostatic model assessment, and plasma insulin, Low density lipoprotein, High density lipoprotein, Total Cholesterol, Triglyceride, and fasting blood sugar were measured. The result indicated that, weight loss was not significantly affected by BCAA and vitamin B6 supplementation (–2.43 ± 1.02 kg) or placebo (–1.64 ± 1.48 kg). However, significant time × treatment interactions in waist to hip ratio (P = 0.005), left leg lean (P = 0.004) and right leg lean (P = 0.023) were observed. Overall, supplementation with BCAA and vitamin B6 could preserve legs lean and also attenuated waist to hip ratio.
