Research Abstract |
WITH THE VIEW TO ELUCIDATING THE STEREOCHEMISTRY ON A COMPLEX STRUCTURE OF BIOLOGICALLY ACTIVE PLANT- AND ANINAL-CONSTITUENTS AND OF DRUG METABOLITES, A FOLLOWING JOINT PROJECT WAS CONDUCTED BY UTILIZING THE 270 MHz FT-NMR SPECTROMETRY. METABOLISM OF ALKALOIDS WAS ALSO INVESTIGATED. 1. METABOLISM OF TWO ALKALOIDS, STRYCHINE AND SCOPOLAMINE WAS STUDIED IN EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS. FIVE URINARY METABOLITES OF STRYCHININE IN RATS WERE ISOLATED AND IDENTIFIED BY COMPARISON WITH AUTHENTIC SAMPLES. IN VITRO METABOLITES OF STRYCHNINE AND SCOPOLAMINE FORMED WITH LIVER MICROSOMES OF RATS WERE DETERMINED, AND EFFECT OF INDUCERS OF DRUG METABOLIZING ENZYMES WAS EXAMINED. THE STRUCTURES OF FOUR URINARY METABOLITES OF SCOPOLAMINE IN RATS AND RABBITS WERE ELUCIDATED. 2. CHEMICAL EXAMINATIONS ON TANNINS AND RELATED COMPOUNDS IN VARIOUS BEVERAGE TEAS (3 SPECIES), COMMERCIAL RHUBARBS (4 SPECIES), FAGACEOUS PLANTS (6 SPECIES) IN JAPAN AND TAIWANESE MEDICINAL PLANTS (12 SPECIES) HAVE LED TO THE ISOLATION AND

CHARACTERIZATION OF TOTALLY 120 COMPOUNDS ABOUT 70 NEW TANNINGS. 3. THE ECHINODERMATA IN MARINE INVERTEBRATES WHICH IS RICH IN LIPIDS ATTRACTED A CONSIDERABLE ATTENTION AND, FROM THE STARFISH ACANTHASTER PLANCI, SIX CEREBROSIDES AND TWO DIHEXOSIDE TYPE GLYCOSPHINGOLIPIDS WERE NEWLY OBTAINED IN A PURE STATE AND CHARACTERIZED ON THE BASIS OF CHEMICAL AND SPECTROSCOPIC EVIDENCES. THE STEREOCHEMISTRY OF THE PHYTOSPHINGOSINE BASE WAS DETERMINED BY COMPARISON WITH THE SYNTHESIZED COMPOUND. 4. ASYMMETRIC SYNTHESIS OF PLATELET-ACTIVATING FACTOR (PAF) AND ITS ENANTIOMER BY USING BIOCATALYSTS WAS STUDIED. (1) ENZYME CATALYZED ASYMMETRIC HYDROLYSIS OF 1,3-DI-O-ACYL-2-O-BENZYLGLYCEROL AFFORDED OPTICALLY ACTIVE MONOACYLATE, WHICH WAS CONVERTED INTO 2,3-O-ISOPROPYRIDENE-sn-GLYCEROL. (2) MICROBIAL REDUCTION OF THE PRO-CHIRAL <alpha>-KETOESTER AFFORDED OPTICALLY PURE <alpha>-HYDROXYESTER, WHICH WAS CONVERTED INTO (+)-AND (-)-BATYL ALCOHOL, A KEY SYNTHETIC INTERMEDIATE FOR PAF. 5. NMR ANALYSIS HAVE BEEN MADE OF H-D EXCHANGE RATES OF TRYPTOPHAN INDOLE N-1 HYDROGENS IN CHEMICALLY MODIFIED LYSOZYMES. THE EXCHANGE RATES FOR TRYPTOPHAN RESIDUES REMOTE FROM THE MODIFICATION SITES ARE PERTURBED AND ARE RELATED TO THE LOCAL FLUCTUATIONS. THE CHANGE IN THE LOCAL FLUCTUATION DUE TO THE CHEMICAL MODIFICATION IS RELATED TO THE MINOR CHANGE IN THE LOCAL CONFORMATION. Less
