    Notes: Abstract A gradient high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed to determine degradation products of adinazolam mesylate in a sustained release tablet formulation. Sample preparations were chromatographed on a YMC-Basic column using a formate buffer/acetonitrile gradient with absorbance detection at 254 nm. Adinazolam mesylate was found to degrade at high relative humidity and temperature to form a major product, the 6-aminoquinoline analog, plus numerous other compounds. Five of these compounds were identified and their structures indicate that the solid-state degradation of adinazolam, in the presence of sufficient moisture, involves not only a hydrolytic mechanism, but also an oxidative mechanism. Potential process impurities were resolved from the drug and degradation products. Recovery was near 100% over the 0.5 to 10% range for the major degradate (6-aminoquinoline) and over the 0.5 to 1% range for the other analytes. The method was applied to tablet samples stressed at high relative humidity and temperature. The relative standard deviation of the assay for the 6-aminoquinoline was less than 2% and less than 13% for the minor components. Calculated mass balances (sum of adinazolam plus degradation products in the degraded tablet divided by the same sum in the undegraded tablet) were less than 100% and were dependent on the extent of degradation in the tablet. The average mass balance result obtained for samples that were an average of 9.5% degraded was 95.0 ± 1.5%. It is possible that the decrease in mass balance with increase in percent degradation may be explained by the formation of many components at trace levels due to degradation by various permutations of hydrolytic and oxidative reaction pathways.

    Notes: Abstract Pancreatic thread protein (PTP) forms double helical threads in the neutralpH range after purification, undergoing freely reversible,pH-dependent globule-fibril transformation. The purified bovine PTP consists on SDS gels of two carbohydrate-free polypeptide chains (Grosset al., 1985). Plasma desorption mass spectrometry and amino acid sequence analysis now confirm that bovine PTP contains two disulfide-bonded polypeptides, an A chain of 101 amino acid residues with a molecular weight of 11,073 and a B chain of 35 residues with a molecular weight of 3970. The intact protein exhibits a molecular weight of 15,036, agreeing 〉99.9% with the molecular weight calculated from the sequence. The B chain sequence was determined by gas-phase Edman degradation of the intact polypeptide. The A chain sequence was determined from overlapping peptides generated by cleavage at lysyl, tryptophanyl, and aspartyl-prolyl residues. Based upon the bovine PTP cDNA structure, the two chains of the protein result from cleavage of a single polypeptide with removal of a dipeptide between the NH2-terminal A chain and COOH-terminal B chain. Comparison of bovine PTP with other proteins reveals significant structural relatedness with the single-chain homologues from human and rat pancreas and with the motif associated with Ca2+-dependent carbohydrate recognition domains. The physiological role of PTP has not yet been resolved. The protein is present in very high concentration in pancreatic secretion and it has been detected in brain lesions in Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome and in regenerating rat pancreatic islets. The present results provide a firm protein base for ongoing molecular, physical-chemical, and structure-function studies of this unusual protein.

    Notes: Abstract Three alkaloids—two minor decahydroquinolines (DHQs) and a major quinolizidine—were detected in an extract of a Brazilian myrmicine ant (Solenopsis (Diplorhoptrum) sp. picea group). One DHQ (3) was identical to a known frog-skin alkaloid, cis-195A (cis-5-methyl-2-propyldecahydroquinoline), while the second DHQ, an isomer of 3, designated 195J, was assigned a tentative cis-2-methyl-5-propyldecahydroquinoline structure (2) based on mass and infrared spectra. The third alkaloid proved identical to the frog-skin alkaloid 195C, for which a structure had not been previously proposed. Mass and infrared spectral analysis, including chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry, indicated a 4-methyl-6-propylquinolizidine structure (1) for 195C. The four possible diastereomers were synthesized and the (6Z,10E)-4-methyl-6-propylquinolizidine diastereomer (1b) was identical to the natural alkaloid. Skin extracts of a population of a Madagascan mantelline frog contained, among other alkaloids, minor amounts of the same alkaloid triad 1–3 with 1 again predominating. The common occurrence of alkaloids 1–3 in both ant and frog supports the hypothesis that ants are a likely dietary source for sequestered frog-skin alkaloids and brings to six, the alkaloid classes common to ant and frog.

    Notes: Abstract The characterization of site-specific glycosylation is traditionally dependent on the availability of suitable proteolytic cleavage sites between each glycosylated residue, so that peptides containing individual glycosylation sites are recovered. In the case of heavily glycosylated domains such as theO-glycosylated mucins, which have no available protease sites, this approach is not possible. Here we introduce a new method to gain site-specific compositional data on the oligosaccharides attached to a single amino acid. Using a model glycopeptide from a mutant human albumin Casebrook, glycosylated PTH-Asn was recovered after sequential solid-phase Edman degradation, subjected to acid hydrolysis and the sugars were identified by high performance anion exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection. The PTH-Asn(Sac) derivative was further characterized by ionspray mass spectrometry. Comparison between an endoproteinase Glu-C glycopeptide and a tryptic glycopeptide showed that the oligosaccharide attached to Asn494 was stable after at least 10 cycles of Edman degradation.

    Notes: Several N-vinylarylamines have been prepared by direct N-vinylation of arylamine salts with acetylene at atmospheric pressure. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of the various N-vinylarylamines were recorded and chemical shift assignments were made for the first time. The vinyl protons of the enamines generally exhibit an ABX pattern. The electron-rich monomers are sensitive to acid-catalyzed hydrolysis in a wet solvent. Polymerizations of the monomers were carried out at low temperatures with phosphorous pentafluoride as an initiator. It was found that PF5 generated directly from thermal decomposition of p-chlorobenzenediazonium hexafluorophosphate is useful in the preparation of an extremely high-molecular-weight poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (Mw = 3 × 106) with a narrow molecular weight distribution (MWD = 2.1). The polymerizability of N-vinylarylamines appears to vary with the amine functional groups of the monomers. N-vinylarylamine containing a planar amine moiety such as carbazole forms a higher-molecular-weight polymer than the monomers with the nonplanar bulky amine groups.

    Notes: Vinyl acetate (VAc)-butyl acrylate (BuA) comonomer mixtures with various composition were polymerized by batch and semicontinuous emulsion polymerization processes. PVAc and PBuA homopolymer latexes as well as the (VAc-BuA) copolymer latexes were characterized with respect to particle size, molecular weight, acid end groups on particle surfaces, and colloidal stability against electrolytes. The surface and colloidal properties of these latexes were also compared before and after aging and acid hydrolysis. The average particle size of batch latexes was independent of copolymer composition, whereas for semicontinuous latexes it decreased with increasing BuA content and was always lower than that of the corresponding batch latex. The molecular weight distribution (MWD) for batch latexes was narrower and much less dependent on composition than that of the semicontinuous latexes; bimodal MWD was found in most semicontinuous latexes with a substantial amount of low MW fraction. The total weak and strong acid end groups on particle surfaces for semicontinuous latexes is higher, and more dependent on composition, than the batch latexes. Acid-induced hydrolysis results in a drastic change in the type and concentration of the surface groups of the semicontinuous latex particles. Colloidal stability against electrolytes showed that both electrostatic (due to surface acid groups) and steric [due to surface poly(vinyl alcohol)] mechanisms are contributing. However, for semicontinuous latexes, increasing PVAc content above 50 mol % resulted in a proportional increase and ultimately dominant role of steric stabilization. The results were interpreted in terms of differences in reactivity ratios and water solubilities of the two monomers and their effects on the locus of initiation and growth in the two polymerization processes, as well as the monomer sequence within the polymer chain and degree of homogeniety of the copolymer composition within the particle.

    Notes: The results of the competitive growth of monodisperse polystyrene latex particles reported earlier by Vanderhoff et al. are reconciled with the predictions of more recent particle-growth theories. In these experiments, monomer was polymerized in a seed latex comprised of a mixture of two monodisperse latexes so that the particles of different size competed with one another for the available monomer and free radicals. The results were expressed in terms of the equation dV/dt = kDc, where V is the particle volume, D the diameter, and k and c constants. The value of c is zero for emulsion polymerizations obeying Smith-Ewart Case II kinetics and 3 for polymerizations in homogeneous phase. Experimentally, for water-soluble persulfate initiator, the value of c was 2.5 for particle sizes larger than about 1500 Å and decreased toward zero as the particle size was decreased below 1500 Å; for oil-soluble benzoyl peroxide initiator, it was 2.5 until the larger particles reached the critical size needed to sustain two growing radicals (about 13,000 Å), after which it increased to 3. The present work uses more recent particle-growth theories to demonstrate that these experimental values of 2.5 and 3 are consistent with the theoretical predictions for water-soluble and oil-soluble initiators, respectively.

    Notes: The polyethyleneimine (PEI)-water-silica gel absorption system was used as a model system to investigate the relationship between diffusion into the porous structure, adsorption rate, and molecular weight of the polymer. Three silica gels, Porasil A, B, and and C having a range of characteristic porosity were used as adsorbents. Adsorption of PEI on Porasil C, which has the majority of its pores much larger than the dimensions of the adsorbate molecule, increased initially with increased molecular weight but became nearly constant at higher molecular weight. Little increase in adsorption occurred for this silica gel with increased ionic strength or with increased pH between 9.5 and 10.8. In contrast, adsorption increased sharply with increased ionic strength and for the same pH range on Porasil A. Molecular weight dependence was reversed. Adsorption decreased with increased molecular weight on Porasil A. In this case, the molecular size of PEI investigated was the same as the majority of pore apertures in the adsorbent. Solution environments (i.e., pH and ionic strength) that decrease the size of the PEI molecule and its affinity for the anionic silica gel surface, thus enabling it to more readily diffuse into the smaller porous regions of the adsorbent, are the apparent causes of the very large adsorption increase. Electrostatic repulsion between PEI molecules do not appear greatly to affect adsorption. Similar adsorption behavior has been reported in the literature for the PEI-cellulosic fiber adsorption system. Maximum adsorption on Porasil A occurred at pH 10.8, the same maximum generally reported for adsorption of PEI on cellulosic fibers. In this case, the silica gel (Porasil A) was found to have a pore size distribution and specific surface area of the same magnitude as cellulosic fibers prepared in the expanded state.
