    Notes: Abstract Infrared images of the skull surface were obtained in urethane-anesthetized rats and gerbils before, during and after mechanical stimulation of the face and mystacial vibrissae on one side. Areas of increased temperature on the skull, localized mainly over the face area of the primary somatosensory cortex contralateral to the side of stimulation, appeared within 4–5 s after the onset of stimulation. Rarely, such temperature change was recorded bilaterally. Temperatures did not remain high on the intact skull in rats, but fell to baseline within minutes after stimulus onset regardless of stimulus duration. In rats in which the skull had been thinned and in gerbils with intact skull, temperatures remained elevated during the course of stimulation. We were unable to resolve the activation of individual vibrissae.

    Notes: Abstract The withdrawal reflex pathways to hindlimb muscles have an elaborate spatial organization in the rat. In short, the distribution of sensitivity within the cutaneous receptive field of a single muscle has a spatial pattern that is a mirror image of the spatial pattern of the withdrawal of the skin surface ensuing on contraction in the respective muscle. In the present study, a search for neurones encoding the specific spatial input-output relationship of withdrawal reflexes to single muscles was made in the lumbosacral spinal cord in halothane/nitrous oxide-anaesthetized rats. The cutaneous receptive fields of 147 dorsal horn neurones in the L4-5 segments receiving a nociceptive input and a convergent input from A and C fibres from the hindpaw were studied. The spatial pattern of the response amplitude within the receptive fields of 118 neurones was quantitatively compared with those of withdrawal reflexes to single muscles. Response patterns exhibiting a high similarity to those of withdrawal reflexes to single muscles were found in 27 neurones located in the deep dorsal horn. Twenty-six of these belonged to class 2 (responding to tactile and nociceptive input) and one belonged to class 3 (responding only to nociceptive input). None of the neurones tested (n=20) with reflex-like response patterns could be antidromically driven from the upper cervical cord, suggesting that they were spinal interneurones. With some overlap, putative interneurones of the withdrawal reflexes to the plantar flexors of the digits, the plantar flexors of the ankle, the pronators, the dorsiflexors of the ankle, and a flexor of the knee, were found in succession in a mediolateral direction. It is concluded that neurones that are able to encode the specific spatial input-output organization of the withdrawal reflexes to single muscles do exist in the deep dorsal horn. Such reflex encoders appear to have a “musculotopic” organization. A hypothesis of the organization of the withdrawal reflex system is presented.

    Notes: Abstract Stimulation of the caudal raphe nuclei alters visceral functions. The caudal raphe nuclei project to the nucleus of the solitary tract, which receives the central terminations of vagal afferents and plays an important role in the central integration of autonomic activities. The caudal raphe nuclei also project to the somatic and preganglionic autonomixc motoneurons of the spinal cord. Diamidino yellow was injected into the nucleus of the solitary tract, and fast blue was injected into either the cervical, thoracic, or lumbar spinal cord. Large numbers of double-labeled neurons were present within the caudal raphe nuclei and the adjacent reticular formation of the medial tegmental field. This observation documents that individual raphespinal and reticulospinal neurons project an axon collateral to the nucleus of the solitary tract. These data demonstrate the anatomic substrate for global modulation of the autonomic motoneuron pool by the caudal raphe nuclei.

    Notes: Abstract The present study was designed to examine the effects of an intraspinal transplantation of embryonic brainstem neurons on fictive motor patterns which can develop in hindlimb nerves of adult chronic spinal rats. Seventeen adult rats were spinalized at T8-9 level and, 8 days later, a suspension of embryonic cells obtained either from the raphe region (RR, n=8) or from the locus coeruleus (LC, n=9) was injected caudally (T12–13) to the cord transection. Eight control animals (control rats) were spinalized and injected with vehicle under the same conditions. One to three months later, the animals were decorticated and fictive motor patterns were recorded in representative hindlimb nerves. The data revealed that both control and grafted spinal rats could exhibit two distinctly different fictive motor patterns, one which could be associated with stepping and the other with hindlimb paw shaking. They further showed that following transplantation of embryonic RR or LC neurons the excitability of the spinal stepping generator was increased, whereas that of the spinal neural circuits which generate hindlimb paw shaking was not significantly affected. A histological analysis performed on the spinal cord segments below the transection revealed complete absence of serotonin and noradrenaline immunoreactivity in control spinal animals and, in both types of grafted rats, an extensive monoaminergic reinnervation with synaptic contacts between monoaminergic transplanted neurons and host interneurons and/or motoneurons. The possible mechanisms by which grafted monoaminergic neurons can influence the spinal motor networks are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract This study investigated astroglial responses after focal cerebral ischemia in the rat cortex induced by photothrombosis. Astrocyte activation was studied at various time points by immunocytochemistry for glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and vimentin (VIM). We found a dual astrocytic response to focal ischemia: In the border zone of the infarct, GFAP-positive astrocytes were present within 2 days and persisted for 10 weeks. These astrocytes additionally expressed VIM. Remote from the ischemic lesion, cortical astrocytes of the entire ipsilateral hemisphere transiently expressed GFAP, but not VIM, beginning on day 3 after photothrombosis. This response had disappeared on day 14. By recording DC potentials, five to seven spreading depressions (SD) could be detected on the cortical surface during the first 2 h after photothrombosis. Treatment with MK801, a non-competitive NMDA-receptor antagonist, completely abolished SD and remote ipsilateral astrocytic activation, while the reaction in the border zone of the infarct remained unchanged. Functionally, persistent astrocytosis around the infarct might be induced by leukocyte-derived cytokines, while NMDA-receptor-mediated SD might cause remote responses.

    Notes: Abstract In brainstem-spinal cord preparations isolated from newborn rats, intrinsic burst-generating properties of preinspiratory (Pre-I) neurons in the rostral ventrolateral medulla, which have been suggested to be primary respiratory rhythm-generating neurons, were studied by “perforated” whole-cell recordings using the antibiotic nystatin. Nystatin causes small pores to be formed in the cells, through which pass small monovalent ions. For blockade of chemical synaptic transmission, perfusate Ca2+ concentration was lowered to 0.2 mM and the Mg2+ concentration was increased to 5 mM. In Iow-Ca2+, high-Mg2+ solution (referred to here as “low Ca”), 10 of 55 Pre-I neurons generated rhythmic bursts (burst type), 14 fired tonically (tonic type), and 31 were silent (silent type). Burst-type neurons showed periodic depolarization of 5–12 mV in low Ca, at a rate of 12±6.5/min. Hyperpolarization of the membrane caused decrease in or disappearance of the periodic depolarization and prolongation of the cycle period. Thus, the burst generations were voltage dependent. The firing frequency of tonictype neurons was 2.3±1.6 Hz and was decreased by hyperpolarization. In 6 of these neurons, the firing patterns changed to burst patterns during continuous hyperpolarization. Membrane depolarization by continuous outward current injection into some silent-type neurons (3 of 11 tested) induced bursting activity. Activity of C4 and Pre-I neurons was completely silent with 0.1–1 μM tetrodotoxin (TTX) added to the standard perfusate. In low Ca, burst-type neurons (n=3) were also silent with 1 μM TTX perfusion. Inspiratory neurons either became silent (n=4) or fired tonically (n=1) in low Ca. The present study by “perforated” whole-cell recordings confirmed that some Pre-I neurons possess intrinsic burst-generating properties, which were not attributable to phasic synaptic inputs.

    Notes: Abstract Electrophysiological properties of neurons as the basic cellular elements of the central nervous system and their synaptic connections are well characterized down to a molecular level. However, the behavior of complex noisy networks formed by these constituents usually cannot simply be derived from the knowledge of its microscopic parameters. As a consequence, cooperative phenomena based on the interaction of neurons were postulated. This is a report on a study of global network spike activity as a function of synaptic interaction. We performed experiments in dissociated cultured hippocampal neurons and, for comparison, simulations of a mathematical model closely related to electrophysiology. Numeric analyses revealed that at a critical level of synaptic connectivity the firing behavior undergoes a phase transition. This cooperative effect depends crucially on the interaction of numerous cells and cannot be attributed to the spike threshold of individual neurons. In the experiment a drastic increase in the firing level was observed upon increase of synaptic efficacy by lowering of the extracellular magnesium concentration, which is compatible with our theoretical predictions. This “on-off” phenomenon demonstrates that even in small neuronal ensembles collective behavior can emerge which is not explained by the characteristics of single neurons.

    Notes: Abstract To establish a new behavioral animal model of excitotoxicity, we injected adult rats intraocularly with a single dose of 2, 20, or 100 nmol of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA). We quantified visual impairment by plotting the size of the visual field in which the rats successfully oriented towards a small, moving target. In comparison to the saline-injected (contralateral) control side, the side injected with 2 nmol of NMDA was not significantly impaired. When injected with higher doses, the rats were nearly blind immediately after surgery, with only about 20% (20 nmol NMDA) or 10% (100 nmol NMDA) of residual vision. Within about 3 weeks, however, visual performance returned to near-normal levels. Simultaneous intraocular administration of a non-competitive NMDA-antagonist, MK-801 (1 nmol), resulted in complete behavioral protection. NMDA administration led to a dose-dependent loss of cells within the ganglion cell layer, as assessed in whole-mounted retinae which were retrogradely labelled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Whereas 2 nmol of NMDA led to the loss of about 30% of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), at higher NMDA doses only 13% of the RGCs survived. After the injection of 20 nmol of NMDA, large-diameter RGCs (〉22 μm) survived the lesion to a greater extent than small diameter cells (8–21 μm); at 100 nmol cells of all diameters were equally affected. The number of Nissl-stained cells with small diameters (〈11 μm), presumed to be displaced amacrine cells, was also affected by NMDA, although to a lesser degree. Analysis of behavioral performance (vision score) and the number of cells in the retina revealed a correlation of r=0.76 between visual performance and the number of HRP-filled RGCs immediately after surgery. Lower correlations were found between visual performance and cells stained with Nissl of diameters smaller than 11 μm (presumably displaced amacrine cells) or larger than 11 μm (presumed RGCs without retinofugal connections; r=0.55 and r=0.58, respectively). Because of the spontaneous recovery of vision, all correlations declined to values near 0 after 3 weeks. Thus, despite a dramatic loss of RGCs following NMDA administration, visual deficits recover significantly in adult rats within 2–3 weeks.

    Notes: Abstract Synaptic depression was assessed from intracellular recordings in cortical tissue slices. Evoked postsynaptic potentials exhibited synaptic depression with an exponential or double exponential decrease (time constants: 〈1–30 s) in amplitude during repetitive afferent stimulation by short trains of suprathreshold stimuli. Depressed synaptic responses recovered with an exponential time course (time constants: 10 s-8 min) during presentation of similar short trains of stimuli every 5 or 10 s. Cortical cells recorded extracellularly in cat visual cortex show similar time constants of response decrement during adaptation to moving stripes. Postsynaptic voltage- or ion-regulated conductances and chloride conductances do not appear to be involved in synaptic depression. Input resistance changes and effects of injection of chloride indicate a lack of GABAA receptor-mediated effects. Hyperpolarizing or depolarizing neurons, and pairing polarization with afferent stimulation, also did not affect synaptic depression. This distinguishes these processes from long-term depression and long-term potentiation. Our results suggest that the most likely mechanisms of synaptic depression and adaptation in cortical cells are presynaptic decrease in transmitter release and/or receptor desensitization. Short-term postsynaptic changes may also occur after synaptic depression.

    Notes: Abstract Two main subclasses of ionotropic receptors for excitatory amino acids (EAAs), N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and non-NMDA receptors, are involved in neurotransmission in the cortex of mammals. To examine whether EAAs are transmitters at the cortical taste area (CTA) in rats and to elucidate which types of the two ionotropic receptors operate at these synapses, we studied the effects of microiontophoretic administration of EAA antagonists on the responses of 64 taste cortical neurons to four basic taste stimuli in urethane-anesthetized rats. Both d-2-amino-5-phosphonovalerate (APV), a selective antagonist for NMDA receptors, and 6-cyano-7-nitro-quinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX), a selective antagonist for non-NMDA receptors, suppressed most of the taste responses. The percentage of neurons suppressed by APV (70.3%) was almost the same as that suppressed by CNQX (64.1%). These suppressive effects were independent of the effects of background discharges during the prestimulus, water-rinsing period. The percentage of neurons suppressed by the antagonists did not differ between any pairs of taste stimuli. The number of neurons possessing both receptors was larger in the granular insular area (area GI), one of the two CTAs, than in the dysgranular insular area (area DI). In addition, taste responses were suppressed by CNQX or by both APV and CNQX in area GI in a significantly larger number of layer V neurons than in area DI. The present results indicate that normal excitatory transmission of taste afferents in the CTA in rats was mediated by both NMDA and non-NMDA receptors. The finding that a large fraction of neurons in the CTA in rats mediated taste information through NMDA receptors in normal transmission might be related to the higher potency of the plasticity observed in the CTA.

    Notes: Abstract  The N-hydroxyurea derivatives 70C ((E)-N-{3-[3-(4-fluorophenoxy)phenyl]-1-(R,S)-methylprop-2-enyl}-N-hydroxyurea) and its (R) 225C and (S) 404C enantiomers, which were being developed as 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors for the treatment of certain allergic and inflammatory conditions, were found to cause severe glomerulonephropathy in the rat. The lesion appeared to be of greater severity in female rats compared with male rats. In addition, 70C and 225C treated animals appeared more severely affected than 404C treated animals. Detailed examination of the lesion in animals dosed with 225C showed that there was a clear relationship between the onset of the lesion and the dose given, i.e. the higher the dose the sooner the lesion developed. The earliest changes detected in the kidney by transmission electron microscopy were noted in the glomeruli, in which the visceral cells appeared enlarged and showed varying degrees of foot process loss. In the more advanced lesion, the degree of foot process loss became more obvious and changes in the kidney tubules were seen by light microscopy. The morphological changes were mirrored by a dose-related increase in water consumption, an increased kidney to body weight ratio and gastrointestinal oedema, suggesting impaired renal function. Shortly after the onset of foot process loss, decreases in the total plasma protein and albumin and increases in the plasma cholesterol, triglycerides, urea and creatinine were recorded. These changes, particularly the foot-process loss, together with increased proteinuria, hypoalbuminaemia, hypercholesterolaemia and lipaemia, are all characteristic of “minimal change nephrotic syndrome”. Because of the serious nature of the kidney lesion caused by these N-hydroxyureas in the rat, it was considered that it precluded their development as therapeutic agents for use in man.

    Notes: Abstract  Osteonectin gene expression in relation to metallothionein mRNA expression was investigated in various tissues from Cd-treated rats. After a single 50 μmol/kg subcutaneous injection of CdCl2, Cd predominantly accumulated in the liver and metallothionein gene expression significantly increased concomitantly with Cd accumulation, but no alteration of osteonectin gene expression was observed. In the kidney and lung, both metallothionein and osteonectin mRNA increased significantly but the elevation of metallothionein mRNA levels (1 h after Cd administration) preceded that of osteonectin (3 h after administration). A significant elevation of osteonectin mRNA levels was also observed in the testis after 3 h, but that of metallothionein mRNA occurred after 6 h. Not only accumulation of Cd but also increments in both osteonectin and metallothionein mRNA were minimal in the brain, but a significant increase in gene expression was observed after 1 h for osteonectin and after 3 h for metallothionein. Since, except in the testis, metallothionein gene expression preceded osteonectin gene expression, the induced metallothionein might transpose Cd and thereby affect its levels immediately, thus reducing the levels of Cd available for accumulation in other tissues. Hence, the osteonectin-Cd interaction might be secondary to the metallothionein-Cd interaction. However, the fact that osteonectin mRNA was predominantly induced by Cd administration in the target tissues of Cd toxicity, such as the lung, kidney and testis, suggests the possible involvement of osteonectin in Cd intoxication/detoxication mechanisms.

    Notes: Abstract  The effects of the herbicides paraquat, dinoseb and 2,4-D on intracellular Ca2+ levels and on vasopressin-induced Ca2+ mobilization were investigated in intact isolated hepatocytes. Incubation of rat hepatocytes with paraquat (5 mM for 60 min) and dinoseb (10 μM) resulted in a time-dependent loss of viability by approximately 25%. Viability of cells treated with 2,4-D decreased significantly, dropping to about 20% at 10 mM and 60 min incubation. Exposure of hepatocytes to paraquat (1–10 mM) for 60 min had no effect on the basal level of [Ca2+] i . Additionally, exposure to paraquat had no effect on the magnitude and on the duration of the [Ca2+] i response to vasopressin. In the presence of 2,4-D (1–10 mM), basal [Ca2+] i increases as a function of herbicide concentration. The magnitude of the Δ[Ca2+] i response decreases from 256±8 nM in control to 220±5 nM, at 10 mM 2,4-D. Exposure of hepatocytes to dinoseb (1–10 μM) had no effect on the basal level of [Ca2+] i . However, a strong concentration-dependent decrease in the magnitude of Δ[Ca2+] i in response to vasopressin was noticed at 60 min incubation. Dinoseb markedly inhibited the stimulation of the production of inositol phosphates by vasopressin stimulus. The present study demonstrates that paraquat, 2,4-D and dinoseb cause cell death in hepatocytes by mechanisms not related to an early increase in [Ca2+] i . Additionally, it has been shown for the first time that dinoseb disturbs the transduction mechanism promoted by vasopressin by inhibiting the formation of IP3.

Chronic feeding of β-cyclodextrin to Fischer 344 rats and CD-1 mice did not cause any treatment related carcinogenic effects. The only toxic effect was seen in mice as macroscopic distension of the large intestine with soft or fluid contents, histologically associated with the mucosa covered by mucous secretion containing exfoliated cells, and mucosal flattening and intestinal gland atrophy. Despite these observations, no differences between control and treated groups were observed concerning mortality, clinical observations or body weight and food consumption.

    Notes: Abstract  The uptake of methyl mercury (MeHg) by isolated rat erythrocytes was studied at 37°C using MeHg-cysteine (MeHgCySH), MeHg-glutathione (MeHgGSH), MeHg-mercaptalbumin (MeHgMASH) and the mixture of MeHgCySH with MeHgGSH, MeHgCySH with MeHgMASH, MeHgGSH with MeHgMASH at different MeHg concentrations. The measured MeHg concentrations were analyzed according to the Akaike’s information criterion in order to determine the suitable compartment model. After determining a two-compartment model, a model-independent two-compartment model was developed from the kinetics of uptake of MeHg at a concentration of 1 mmol MeHg/l packed erythrocytes using MeHgCySH, MeHgGSH and MeHgMASH, respectively. The developed two-compartment model was validated by predicting the kinetics of uptake of MeHg by rat erythrocytes at different MeHg concentrations and different mixtures of MeHg-complexes. Then, the predicted values were compared with the measured values. The results suggested: 1) MeHg uptake appeared suitable to be described by a two-compartment model, while using MeHgGSH, MeHgMASH, MeHgCySH at lower concentrations and the mixtures of MeHg-complexes; 2) MeHgCySH uptake was slowest among three kinds of MeHg-complexes, although a postulated cysteine-facilitated MeHgCySH transport system might exist in erythrocyte membrane; 3) the mixture of MeHg-complexes might facilitate MeHgCySH uptake; 4) there might be a second MeHg intracellular compartment in rat erythrocytes.

    Notes: Abstract  The cytotoxic effects of propyl gallate (PG), its related gallates and gallic acid have been studied in freshly isolated rat hepatocytes. Addition of PG (0.5–2.0 mM) to hepatocyte suspension elicited concentration-dependent cell death accompanied by losses of intracellular ATP, adenine nucleotide pools, glutathione (GSH) and protein thiols. The rapid loss of intracellular ATP preceded the onset of cell death caused by PG. In the comparative toxic effects of PG and related gallates at concentration of 1 mM, octyl gallate (OG), dodecyl gallate (DG) and butyl gallate (BG) elicited an abrupt depletion of ATP, followed by an acute cell death. These gallates were more toxic than PG; the toxic effects of PG were similar to those of methyl gallate (MG) and ethyl gallate (EG). In mitochondria isolated from rat liver, PG caused a concentration-dependent increase in the rate of state 4 oxygen consumption, indicating an uncoupling effect. The rate of state 3 oxygen consumption was inhibited by OG and DG. According to the respiratory control index, the order of impairment potency to mitochondria was OG〉BG, DG〉PG〉EG, MG〉gallic acid. These results indicate that PG and related gallates are toxic to hepatocytes and that the acute cytotoxicity may be due to mitochondrial dysfunction.

    Notes: Abstract  Consumption of certain product lots of L-tryptophan (LT) has been reported to be epidemiologically associated with an outbreak of eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome (EMS) in the United States. Since the production lots were found to contain 3-phenylamino alanine (PAA) as an impurity, its effects were studied by administering the substance orally by gavage to 5-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats. Groups of animals were given PAA for 13 consecutive weeks at dose levels of 1, 10 and 100 mg/kg per day. The animals were killed at 4 or 8 weeks. Hematological and blood biochemical tests were performed and detailed histopathological observations were made. No significant abnormalities were observed in the test animals and in particular no EMS-like conditions. A brief summary of other animal studies using several species of rats and mice performed in our laboratory since 1989 on various LT related substances is also presented. No EMS-like effects were observed in these studies.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of the present study was to assess the influence of experimential factors on the vulnerability of rats to develop amphetamine (AMPH)- and stressor-induced behavioral sensitization. Young male Wistar rats with previous social experience were isolated from their peers for 2 weeks. 1) The effect of this short-lasting social deprivation were: a) a reduced tendency to explore a fearful environment; b) a prolonged exploratory activity in response to a novel but little fearful environment; and c) a dose-dependent increase in the psychomotor stimulation induced by systemic AMPH injection. 2) After repeated AMPH injections (injection every other day for 10 days), isolated rats exhibited behavioral sensitization at lower doses (0.5 and 0.75 mg/kg) than those required for group-housed rats (1 mg/kg). 3) After being submitted to a repeated stressor (3, 7 or 14 footshock sessions, with 2 days between sessions), the isolated rats exhibited a greater increase in the behavioral responsivity to a subsequent AMPH challenge (1 mg/kg) than did the group-housed rats regardless of the number of stress sessions. In conclusion, these results suggest that experiential factors such as privation of contact with peers (social isolation) may make rats more vulnerable to the long-term repercussions of chronic environmental and pharmacological challenges.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of three antidepressants, desipramine (2.5–20 mg/kg) tranylcypromine (0.63–2.5 mg/kg) mianserin (1.25–10 mg/kg) and three non-antidepressants, chlordiazepoxide (CDP; 1.25–10 mg/kg) haloperidol (0.02–0.16 mg/kg)d-amphetamine (0.31–1.25 mg/kg) were evaluated in rats responding for water reinforcement under a DRL 72s schedule. The antidepressants all produced dose-related decreases in overall response rates, but no significant changes in reinforcement frequency. In contrast, the anxiolytic CDP did increase the number of reinforcers obtained. Haloperidol decreased both reinforcers and responses whilstd-amphetamine stimulated responding, thereby decreasing reinforcement frequency. An analysis of the modes of inter-response times (IRTs) revealed no significant shifts in the peaks of the IRT distributions for most of the drugs tested. Amphetamine, however, (0.31 and 0.63 mg/kg) decreased the modal values in correspondence with the shift to the left of the peak of responding caused by this compound. These results are discussed in the context of the use of the DRL 72s procedure as a screening test for antidepressant drugs.

    Notes: Abstract Studies examining differential sensitivity to psychoactive drugs in mice suggest that genotype may play a critical role. Furthermore, an involvement of genotype in mediating individual differences in sensitivity to the rewarding effects of several drugs of abuse has also been postulated. The aim of this study was to examine the conditioned rewarding and dopamine-releasing effects of morphine in two outbred rat strains commonly used in addiction research. Additionally, the behavioural and neuroendocrine responses of these strains to the stress of novelty were also examined. Basal locomotor activity was higher in Wistar rats than Sprague-Dawley following exposure to a novel environment. In contrast, elevations in plasma corticosteroid levels following novelty exposure did not differ between the two strains. In a counterbalanced place preference conditioning procedure, increasing doses of morphine (1.0–10.0 mg/kg SC) produced significant conditioned place preferences (CPP) in both Wistar and Sprague-Dawley strains. However, Wistar rats required a significantly larger dose of morphine (5.0 mg/kg) to produce a significant CPP than the Sprague-Dawley rats. In the latter strain, CPP occurred with doses of 3.0 mg/kg and greater. In parallel microdialysis experiments, both strains showed significant dose-related increases in dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens following acute morphine challenge (1.0–10.0 mg/kg SC). Again in Wistar rats, a larger dose of morphine was necessary to produce a significant increase in comparison to Sprague-Dawley rats. These results show that genetically distinct rat strains can show differential sensitivity to opioids, more specifically to drug-seeking responses.

    Notes: Abstract This study investigated the alterations of the 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B autoreceptor function following chronic treatment with fluvoxamine using osmotic minipumps. The 5-HT1A and 5-HT1B autoreceptor function were studied using microdialysis in the dorsal hippocampus. The effect of the 5-HT1A receptor agonist 8-OH-DPAT (0.3 mg/kg, SC) and the 5-HT1B receptor agonist RU-24969 (100 nM through the dialysis probe for 30 min) on 5-HT release was compared with rats chronically treated with saline. 8-OH-DPAT decreased 5-HT release to 55% and 60% of baseline, while RU-24969 decreased 5-HT release to 66% and 70% of baseline value in the saline and fluvoxamine group, respectively. In both cases, differences between the saline and fluvoxamine groups were not statistically significant. Plasma levels of fluvoxamine after 21 days of treatment ranged from 3 to 5 ng/ml. Fluvoxamine concentration in rat brain during treatment was estimated between 100 and 200 nM, which approximates to the IC50 value of fluvoxamine on the 5-HT transporter in synaptosomes and is 50 times higher than the Kd value for the 5-HT reuptake site. In conclusion, no evidence was found for changes in 5-HT1A,B receptor function using 8-OH-DPAT and RU-24969 as probes after continuous treatment with fluvoxamine by means of osmotic minipumps.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of the muscarinic antagonists scopolamine HBr and MeBr, the 5-HT1A agonst 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin (8-OH-DPAT), and theN-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists MK-801 and CGS-19755 on performance of rats in a delayed matching-to-position task were examined. Pretreatment with scopolamine HBr (0.05 and 0.1 mg/kg), resulted in a delay-dependent decrease in the percentage of correct responses and discriminability (logd), but had no effect on either the latency to complete trials, or the rate of trial completion during the fixed duration session. Scopolamine MeBr (0.1 mg/kg) did not impair percent correct or increase the response latency but did decrease the rate of trial completion. 8-OH-DPAT (up to 0.3 mg/kg), had no effect on percent correct, but did induce a small decrease in discriminability. The impairment in discriminability occurred only at a dose that substantially reduced the rate of trial completion. Both MK-801 (0.05 mg/kg) and CGS 19755 (10 mg/kg) induced a delay-independent impairment in percent correct, discriminability and a reduction in the rate of trial completion without affecting latency. A lower dose of CGS 19755 (5.0 mg/kg) induced a slight impairment in discriminability without significantly affecting the other measures. Taken together, these results demonstrate some dissocation between drug-induced cognitive and motor/motivational deficits in the DMTP test. However, the data question the specificity of putative cognitive impairments reported in many previous studies with the 5-HT1A agonist 8-OH-DPAT.

    Notes: Abstract To clarify the influence of opioids on social play, the effects of morphine on playful and non-playful social behavior in juvenile rats was investigated under different conditions. Environmental variables employed were different (dim and intense) levels of illumination during testing, familiarity to the test cage, and different periods of social isolation prior to testing. Under dim light conditions, morphine markedly increased playful social behavior, such as pinning, boxing/wrestling and following/chasing, whereas non-playful social behavior such as social exploration and contact behavior was hardly affected. This effect of morphine was independent of duration of previous isolation and dose-dependent, with a maximal effect at 1.0 mg/kg. The mechanism of this effect is interpreted as an action on the rewarding aspects of play. A dose of 0.1 mg/kg of morphine abolished the initial suppression of play induced by unfamiliarity to the test cage, without influencing total levels of play. This may be an effect of morphine on the integration of sensory stimuli. Under intense light conditions, where playful behavior was completely suppressed, morphine itself hardly affected such behavior, but decreased some aspects of non-playful social behavior. These results suggest that in juvenile rats playful and non-playful forms of social behavior are differentially regulated. In addition, opioid systems may be involved at different levels in the regulation of social play.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of various psychotropic drugs on the ambivalent behaviour “stretched approach posture” (SAP) in the rat was assessed. SAP was elicited after a mild startle reaction due to physical contact with an electrified prod at one end of a straight runway. Using ethological observation methods, SAP as well as intention movements, prod contact, crossings, rearing, exploration, grooming and immobility were recorded. The benzodiazepine receptor agonists chlordiazepoxide, diazepam and alprazolam, the 5-HT1A receptor agonists flesinoxan and ipsapirone and the 5-HT uptake inhibitor clomipramine selectively (no effect on crossings) reduced SAP. Except for alprazolam, these drugs also reduced intention movements. In addition, chlordiazepoxide and diazepam enhanced prod contact. Reductions of SAP and intentions with concomitant reductions of crossings (nonspecific anti-ambivalent effects) were established for the α2-adrenoceptor agonist clonidine and the MAO inhibitor clorgyline. The 5-HT uptake inhibitor fluvoxamine suppressed intention movements, but not SAP. The mixed 5-HT/NA uptake inhibitor imipramine did not significantly affect SAP or intentions, but reduced crossings. The 5-HT2C/1B receptor agonist m-CPP, the inverse BZD receptor agonists FG 7142 and DMCM, and the α2-adrenoceptor antagonist yohimbine, to all of which putative anxiogenic effects have been ascribed, had no effect on SAP directed towards the prod. m-CPP, however, produced an increase in the stretched posture directed away from the prod (SAwayP). FG 7142 reduced intentions while strongly enhancing immobility (freezing). SAwayP and/or freezing may possibly reflect anxiogenic properties of drugs. The putative anxiogenic drug pentylenetetrazol false positively reduced SAP while increasing exploration. The dopamine-D2 receptor antagonist haloperidol and the catecholamine releaserdl-amphetamine had no effect on ambivalent behaviour. The muscarine receptor antagonist scopolamine reduced SAP and intentions while stimulating crossings. Finally, the 5-HT2C receptor antagonist ritanserine, the CCKA receptor antagonist devazepide, the CCKB receptor antagonist L-365.260 and the strychnine-insensitive glycine site antagonist 7-Cl-kynurenic acid were without effect on the behaviours in this paradigm using single doses. In conclusion, SAP and intention movements were reduced selectively by anxiolytic agents from different classes, including benzodiazepine receptor agonists, 5-HT1A receptor agonists and a 5-HT uptake inhibitor, whereas an α2-adrenoceptor agonist and a MAO inhibitor reduced SAP non-selectively. SAP in relation to other behaviours may therefore serve as a valuable paradigm to characterize anxiolytic drugs.

    Notes: Abstract The present series of experiments examined the effects of five benzodiazepine receptor (BZR) partial inverse agonists on the behaviour of rats on an elevated plus maze. The drugs were tested in a standard plus maze with 3-cm walls added to the open arms, as this has been shown to increase the sensitivity of the plus maze to anxiogenic-like drug effects (Jones and Cole 1995). The drugs tested were FG 7142 (0–100 mg/kg),β-CCE (0–30 mg/kg), ZK 132 556 (0–100 mg/kg), ZK 90 886 (0–30 mg/kg) and Ro 15–4513 (0–30 mg/kg). In addition, to allow a comparison with previous studies, the effects of three reference substances, DMCM (0–2.5 mg/kg), pentylenetetrazol (PTZ; 0–30 mg/kg) and yohimbine (0–5 mg/kg), were also examined. These three reference compounds produced a dose-dependent reduction in the duration of open arm exploration and the total number of open arm entries, indicative of anxiogenic-like effects. DMCM produced significant effects at the doses of 1.25 and 2.5 mg/kg, PTZ at 30 mg/kg, and yohimbine at 5 mg/kg. The BZR partial inverse agonist FG 7142 (10, 30 and 100 mg/kg) also reduced the duration of open arm exploration and the total number of arm entries. The minimally effective dose resulted in a receptor occupancy of approximately 80%. Ro 15–4513 also produced anxiogenic-like effects, but only at a dose (30 mg/kg) that resulted in a receptor occupancy of approximately 95%. In contrast, the other BZR partial inverse agonists, ZK 132 553 and ZK 90 886, did not significantly reduce the duration of open arm exploration, even at doses that produced greater than 95% receptor occupancies.β-CCE also did not reduce open arm exploration at any dose tested (0–30 mg/kg). The GABA shift, a biochemical index of intrinsic activity, indicates that these latter three compounds are more inverse agonistic than Ro 15–4513. In summary, these results demonstrate that not all BZR receptor partial inverse agonists have anxiogenic-like activity in the rat plus maze, and that the GABA shift, a biochemical index of intrinsic efficacy, does not predict which BZR partial inverse agonists are anxiogenic.

    Notes: Abstract The effects of cholecystokinin (CCK) receptor ligands were studied in the rat safety signal withdrawal conflict procedure, an operant paradigm sensitive to both anxiolytic and anxiogenic compounds. In this procedure, behavioural suppression of lever pressing for food was induced by the withdrawal of a conditioned signal for safety without the usual presentation of a conditioned signal for danger. The compounds tested were selective CCK-B antagonists [CI-988 (0.01–1 mg/kg SC), L-365,260 (0.004–2 mg/kg IP) and LY 262,691 (0.001–1 mg/kg SC)], CCK-B agonists [CCK-4 (0.01–1 mg/kg SC) and BC 264 (0.004–1 mg/kg IP)] and CCK-A antagonists [devazepide (0.001–1 mg/kg SC) and lorglumide (0.01–1 mg/kg SC)]. None of these drugs induced the expected behavioural effects, i.e. an anxiolytic-like release of the behavioural suppression with CCK-B and, possibly, CCK-A antagonists and/or a further reduction of lever pressing with CCK-B agonists, indicative of an anxiogenic-like potential. In contrast, the established anxiolytic lorazepam (0.06–0.25 mg/kg IP), as well as diazepam (2 mg/kg IP) and buspirone (0.25 mg/kg SC) used as positive control drugs, released the suppression of pressing for food during the period associated with the safety signal withdrawal, whereas picrotoxin (1 mg/kg IP), used as an anxiogenic control, further reduced responding during this conflict period. The present results contrast with a series of published data suggesting the involvement of CCK processes in anxiety-related behaviour in rodent models such as the elevated plus-maze or the light:dark two compartment test, and in panic disorders in humans. They indicate that the behavioural effects of one category of drugs might vary considerably, depending on the experimental situation. Furthermore, they allow the conclusion that anticipatory anxiety generated by withdrawal of conditioned signals for safety does not involve CCK-related processes.

    Notes: Abstract Cholinergic neurotransmission has been implicated in various forms of neural plasticity such as kindling and learning. We have previously shown that blockade of muscarinic cholinergic receptors prevents the development of locomotor sensitization to methamphetamine. The present study was conducted to examine whether scopolamine, a muscarinic cholinergic antagonist, would also block augmentation of stereotypy induced by chronic methamphetamine (MA) treatment. Rats treated with MA (2.5 mg/kg, SC) for 10 days indicated significantly enhanced stereotyped behavior when tested with MA (2.5 mg/kg) after a 7-to 8- day withdrawal. Pretreatment with scopolamine (3 mg/kg) prior to MA administration prevented the augmentation of stereotypy. Rats treated with scopolamine alone showed no difference in MA-induced stereotypy compared to those treated with saline. Scopolamine methylbromide, a derivative of scopolamine that does not easily cross the blood-brain barrier, had no effect on the augmentation of stereotypy. These results suggest that stimulation of central muscarinic cholinergic receptors plays a role in the development of sensitization to the stereotypy stimulating effect of methamphetamine.

    Notes: Abstract In rat hippocampal slices epileptiform activity was induced by superfusion with Mg2+-free artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF). Paroxysmal depolarization shifts (PDS) were evoked by electrical stimulation of Schaffer collaterals. To investigate the afterpotentials that follow PDS, intracellular recordings were made from CA1 pyramidal cells. The experiments revealed that several components are engaged in the generation of PDS afterpotentials in Mg2+-free ACSF. A long lasting component which determined the overall duration of the PDS afterhyperpolarization was blocked by intracellular application of ethylenebis(oxonitrilo)-tetraacetate (EGTA); concomitantly, the afterhyperpolarizations following depolarizing current injections were blocked. This indicated that the long lasting component was due to a slow Ca2+-activated K+ current. The block of Ca2+-activated K+ current uncovered a depolarizing PDS afterpotential with an N-shaped voltage dependence, suggesting that this depolarizing afterpotential component may be due to an N-methyl d-aspartate (NMDA) conductance. Intracellular injection of Cl− revealed that the PDS were followed by Cl− currents lasting about 500 ms. This component could be blocked by application of bicuculline suggesting that it is due to a synaptically GABA-mediated (i.e. γ-aminobutyric acid) Cl− current. A comparison of PDS afterpotentials in Mg2+-free ACSF and those in other models of epileptiform activity suggests that similar sequences of inhibitory components are activated in spite of different pharmacological alterations of membrane conductances which induce the epileptiform discharges.

    Notes: Abstract We measured the diffusion coefficient of myoglobin (D Mb) inside mammalian skeletal muscle cells with a microinjection technique. A small bolus of horse Mb was injected into a single muscle fibre and the subsequent time-dependent changes of the Mb profiles along the fibre axis were measured with a microscope-photometer. For fibres of the rat soleus muscle at 22° C, a D Mb of 1.3·10−7 cm2/s was found, confirming a result obtained previously by us for rat diaphragm muscle with a photo-oxidation technique. In the extensor digitorum longus muscle of the rat, a higher value of 1.9 · 10−7 cm2/s was measured. Auxotonic muscle contractions did not change the apparent D Mb. For the temperature range between 22 ° C and 37 ° C, a temperature coefficient, Q 10, of 1.5 was calculated. The implication of this result for the role of Mb in the facilitation of oxygen transport was examined. Model calculations show that with this relatively low D Mb value, the intracellular oxygen supply can be improved only slightly.

    Notes: Abstract Effects of cholinergic and adrenergic agonists on the secretion of the fluorescent dye calcein were examined to clarify the involvement of calcium ions in the secretion of calcein from acinar cells dispersed from the rat parotid gland. Addition of carbachol (CCh) and noradrenalin (NA), but not isoproterenol (IPR), enhanced the net release of calcein from acinar cells during the subsequent 10 min in a dose range from 10−8 M to 10−6 M. The net release of calcein reached a maximum 7 min after the addition of CCh. The release of calcein was suppressed by the simultaneous additions of atropine with CCh, or phenoxybenzamine with NA. Addition of CCh induced a sustained dosedependent increase in the intracellular levels of calcium ions, ([Ca2+]i). Addition of NA at 10−6 M increased [Ca2+]i. Phenoxybenzamine completely inhibited the NA-induced increase, but propranolol did not. The removal of extracellular calcium ions did not influence the release of calcein induced by 10−6 M CCh, but it abolished the sustained increase in [Ca2+]i. The transient increase in [Ca2+]i induced by CCh was observed in the absence of extracellular calcium ions. A calcium ion chelator, 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA) inhibited the CCh-induced release of calcein. The calcium ionophore, A23187 (2.5×10−6 M), but not 10−3 M dibutyryl cAMP, evoked the release of calcein. It also increased [Ca2+]i. Removal of extracellular calcium ions suppressed the A23187-induced release of calcein. These results suggest that the release of calcein from parotid acinar cells is transiently induced through an increase in [Ca2+]i by muscarinic and α-adrenergic agonists and may represent the initial process of salivary secretion.

    Notes: Abstract The aim of the experiments was to study the effects of a moderate heat load on sleep in young (26-day-old) rats and to determine whether the sleep-promoting effect of heat results from stimulation of the homeostatic sleep process. The changes in sleep-wake activity, electroencephalogram slow wave activity (SWA) during non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREMS) and cortical temperature (T crt) were determined during and after long (24-h) and short (2.5-h) heat loads (elevation of ambient temperature from 26° C to 32° C), and after total sleep deprivation (SD) combined with a short-term heat load. The heat exposures elicited increases in T crt and rectal temperature (2 and 1.7° C respectively). The long-term heat load induced persistent, albeit slight enhancements in NREMS. Rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) increased with a 12-h delay during the 24-h heat load. Heat elicited an immediate large increase in SWA. After this initial increase, SWA declined and tended to fall below the baseline level during the last 12 h of the 24-h heat load. SWA and REMS were significantly suppressed after termination of 24-h heat loading. The increased SWA during the short-term heat load was not followed by subsequent alterations in sleep when the ambient temperature had returned to normal. However, after the combination of SD with the shortterm heat load the durations of NREMS and SWA were significantly enhanced compared with those found after SD at 26° C. The results are interpreted as suggesting that heat increases NREMS in the young rat by the same mechanism as is involved in the enhancement of NREMS after SD: a stimulation of sleep drive.

    Notes: Abstract Histochemical fibre-type composition and myosin heavy chain isoform component in the soleus muscle were studied in normoxic rats at postnatal ages of 5, 10, 15, and 20 weeks and in rats exposed to hypobaric hypoxia (460 torr) for 5 weeks from postnatal ages of 5, 10, and 15 weeks. The increase in the percentage of type I fibres and the concomitant decrease in that of type IIa fibres in the soleus muscle of normoxic rats were observed until 15 weeks of age. On the other hand, no change in the fibre-type composition of the muscle during postnatal development was observed in hypoxic rats, irrespective of the age at which they were exposed to hypoxia. The changes in the myosin heavy chain isoform component (MHC I and MHC IIa) of the muscle during postnatal development and by hypoxia corresponded well with those in the muscle fibre-type composition. It is concluded that hypobaric hypoxia inhibits the growth-related shift of muscle fibre-types from type IIa to type I and of myosin heavy chain isoforms from MHC IIa to MHC I in the rat soleus muscle, and that there are no changes in the muscle fibre-type composition or the myosin heavy chain isoform component caused by hypoxia after the shifts in these parameters which occur during postnatal development are completed.

    Notes: Abstract Glial cells in the hilus of the dentate gyrus of the rat were investigated using the patch-clamp technique in acute slices of the hippocampal formation. According to their voltage-gated current patterns, two classes of glial cells — putative astrocytes and presumed glial precursor cells — were apparent. The glutamate receptor agonists kainate, glutamate, and α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionate (AMPA) evoked inward currents at a holding potential of −70 mV in astrocytes and presumed glial precursor cells. Inward currents could also be induced in nucleated patches, indicating a direct action on glial receptors. In presumed hilar glial precursor cells, 6,7-dinitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (DNQX; 10 μM) blocked the kainate-induced current, while it was partially inhibited by Zn2+ (2 mM) and Evans Blue (10 μM). Cyclothiazide (100 μM), in contrast, potentiated this current, indicating the presence of AMPA receptors. In 90% of the presumed glial precursor cells the excitatory amino-acid-evoked current voltage (I/V) relations were linear or outwardly rectifying and reversed close to 0 mV, which is characteristic for non-specific cation channels. To determine the permeability to Ca2+, I/V relations were determined in a Na+-free solution containing 40 mM Ca2+ and showed reversal potentials of a wide variation ranging from −63 mV to + 1 mV with corresponding P Ca/ P Cs permeability ratios of between 0.09 and 2.10. Statistical analysis revealed that the permeability to Ca2+ significantly decreased with an advance in age (r=−0.596; n=21; P〈0.01). These data suggest that the Ca2+ influx mediated by the activation of AMPA receptors expressed in presumed hilar glial precursor cells is dependent on the developmental stage.

    Notes: Abstract A multiple choice serial reaction time task was used to investigate visual attention in rats. The intelligence panel consisted of a transparent touch-sensitive device, placed directly in front of a video monitor. Amphetamine (0.2–1.6 mg/kg IP) increased errors of omission and decreased latency to respond, but had no effect on accuracy. The 5-HT agonist quipazine (0.6–2.4 mg/kg IP) increased errors of omission, but did not affect other parameters. ICV administration of hemicholinium-3 (1–4 µg) had no effect upon performance. Thus, psychopharmacological manipulations can reliably alter performance in the touch window box, suggesting potential new avenues for rat cognitive testing.

    Notes: Abstract Low doses of dopamine (DA) agonists such as the D2 receptor subfamily agonist quinpirole are thought to stimulate DA autoreceptors selectively, thereby inhibiting locomotor activity. High doses of quinpirole initially suppress and later activate locomotion during a single test session; the activation is presumably due to stimulation of postsynaptic receptors. The aim of this study was to investigate whether pretreatment with a selective DA D2 receptor antagonist, sulpiride, could block the putative autoreceptor-mediated inhibition at a lower dose than was required to block the postsynaptically mediated activation. Male and female 30-day-old rats were injected SC with one of eight doses of sulpiride (0.313–40 mg/kg) or the vehicle. Sixty minutes later, rats were injected SC with 0.2 mg/kg quinpirole or the vehicle. Five minutes after the second injection, rats were placed in automated activity monitors which recorded locomotor behavior for 60 min at 5-min intervals. Quinpirole at this dose first suppressed and later increased locomotor activity. Sulpiride pretreatment dose-dependently reversed both the early inhibition and later activation of quinpirole-induced locomotion. However, sulpiride did not block the quinpirole-induced early suppression at a lower dose than was required to block the later activation. Thus, there was no evidence that the locomotor suppression elicited by quinpirole is mediated by a more sensitive subset of DA receptors.

    Notes: Abstract Since the hippocampus is likely to be a major site of phencyclidine (PCP) action, the effects of various doses of PCP (1.8, 18 or 36 nM) as well as 3.6 nM MK-801 or saline injected directly into the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus was tested for acquisition of a spatial navigation task (dry land version of a water maze) using a paradigm that assesses short term memory based on learning within a day and long term memory based on learning between days. Results indicated that relative to saline or 1.8 nM PCP injected rats, rats with 18 or 36 nM PCP or 3.6 nM MK-801 injections were impaired in acquisition of the task as measured by increased distances traveled to find the food location between days but not within days. In additional experiments 36 nM PCP or 3.6 nM MK-801 did not produce any deficits in the acquisition of an object discrimination task. It is suggested that PCP through its blocking action of the NMDA receptor in the dentate gyrus or CA1 region of the dorsal hippocampus mediates the consolidation of new spatial location information.

    Notes: Abstract In order to assess the effects of the atypical neuroleptic clozapine on orolingual competence in rats, tongue function was measured by quantitating the rhythm of tongue movements after acute (1.0, 3.0, 6.0 mg/kg) or subchronic intraperitoneal treatment (1.5, 3.0, 4.5 mg/kg, each dose for at least 7 days) with the drug. Thirsty rats were trained to lick water from a force-sensing disk by thrusting the tongue through a 12-mm-diameter hole to strike the horizontal disk located 5 mm below the hole. Number of licks in 2 min and rhythm of tongue movements (as determined by Fourier analysis of the force-time signal) were each dose dependently reduced in the acute dose-effect phase of the study. In the subchronic study number of licks exhibited tolerance, but the slowing of lick rhythm did not show tolerance. An acute dose range of the serotonin antagonist ritanserin (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 mg/kg) was also studied in the same rats. Ritanserin had no effect on any of the measures of orolingual function. The clozapine result was replicated in a second study using younger, drug naive rats. The results for clozapine were contrasted with previous reports indicating that haloperidol has little effect on lick rhythm. Additional discussion evaluated the possible contribution of neurotransmitter receptors on motor neurons of the hypoglossal nucleus to the observed rhythm slowing induced by clozapine.

    Notes: Abstract The administration to rats of different doses of the non competitive NMDA receptor blocker MK-801 (0.03–1 mg/kg IP) induced stimulation or reduction of locomotor activity, depending on the dose, whereas the competitive NMDA antagonists CGP 43487 (0.188–6 mg/kg IP) and APV (2.5–20 μg/rat ICV) inhibited locomotion at the highest doses. Unlike MK-801 and APV treatment, the administration of CGP 43487 did not induce impairment of rota-rod test performance. Both competitive and non-competitive NMDA antagonists, at doses devoid of any behavioral effect per se, potentiated the responses elicited by apomorphine (0.25 mg/kg SC). In particular, the occurrence of episodes of licking was weakly affected by MK-801 administration, but significantly increased by CGP 43487 and APV treatment; the presence of gnawing was augmented by all the pretreatments; sniffing, locomotion, grooming and rearing occurrence were not affected by the administration of NMDA antagonists. The results suggest that the competitive antagonists which facilitated dopaminergic function without causing motor impairment could be useful supplements in the treatment of Parkinson's disease.

    Notes: Abstract This experiment examined the effect of destroying central noradrenergic neurones, using the selective neurotoxin DSP4 (N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-ethyl-2-bromobenzylamine) on the acquisition and performance of discrimination between two time intervals. Rats that had received systemic treatment with DSP4 and vehicle-treated control rats were trained in a series of discrete trials to press lever A following a 2-s presentation of a light stimulus and lever B following an 8-s presentation of the same stimulus. Both groups acquired the discrimination (〉90% correct choices) within 15 sessions; however, the DSP4-treated group showed significantly slower acquisition than the control group. When stable performance had been attained, ‘probe’ trials were introduced in which the light was presented for intermediate durations. Both groups showed sigmoid functions relating percent choice of lever B to log stimulus duration. Neither the bisection point (duration corresponding to 50% choice of lever B) nor the Weber fraction differed significantly between the DSP4-treated and control groups. The levels of noradrenaline were markedly reduced in the neocortex and hippocampus of the DSP4-treated group, but the levels of dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine were not altered. The results indicate that noradrenaline depletion induced by DSP4 retarded the acquisition of temporal discrimination, but did not impair steady-state discriminative precision.

    Notes: Abstract Cannabis sativa preparations (hashish, marijuana) are the most widely used illicit drugs during pregnancy in Western countries. The possible long-term consequences for the child of in utero exposure to cannabis derivatives are still poorly understood. Animal models of perinatal cannabinoid exposure provide a useful tool for examining the developmental effects of cannabinoids. Behavioral consequences of maternal exposure to either cannabis preparations or to its main psychoactive component, Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in rat models are reviewed in this paper. Maternal exposure to cannabinoids resulted in alteration in the pattern of ontogeny of spontaneous locomotor and exploratory behavior in the offspring. Adult animals exposed during gestational and lactational periods exhibited persistent alterations in the behavioral response to novelty, social interactions, sexual orientation and sexual behavior. They also showed a lack of habituation and reactivity to different illumination conditions. Adult offspring of both sexes also displayed a characteristic increase in spontaneous and water-induced grooming behavior. Some of the effects were dependent on the sex of the animals being studied, and the dose of cannabinoid administered to the mother during gestational and lactational periods. Maternal exposure to low doses of THC sensitized the adult offspring of both sexes to the reinforcing effects of morphine, as measured in a conditioned place preference paradigm. The existence of sexual dimorphisms on the developmental effects of cannabinoids, the role of sex steroids, glucocorticoids, and pituitary hormones, the possible participation of cortical projecting monoaminergic systems, and the mediation of the recently described cannabinoid receptors are also analyzed. The information obtained in animal studies is compared to the few data available on the long-term behavioral and cognitive effects on in utero exposure to cannabis in humans.

    Notes: Abstract Prepulse inhibition (PPI) of an acoustic startle response is impaired in schizophrenics. PPI can also be studied in the rat, and is impaired by dopamine (DA) D2/3 receptor agonists such as apomorphine. This disruption is reversed by DA antagonists, leading to proposals that this approach may be a useful means to identify novel antipsychotics. There is also evidence to suggest a role of serotonergic (5-HT) and glutamatergic systems in schizophrenia, and accordingly PPI can be disrupted by the 5-HT2 agonist DOI, and the non-competitive NMDA antagonist, dizocilpine. In the present study we have examined the effect of four antipsychotic drugs, haloperidol (0.1–0.3 mg/kg), raclopride (0.03–0.3 mg/kg), risperidone (0.3–3 mg/kg) and clozapine (0.0001–10 mg/kg), against the PPI disruptions induced by apomorphine (0.5 mg/kg), DOI (3 mg/kg) and dizocilpine (0.15 mg/kg). Furthermore, these drugs have been examined for their ability to restore a PPI deficit produced by housing rats under conditions of social isolation. All drugs except clozapine reversed an apomorphine-induced disruption. However, clozapine and risperidone, but not raclopride and haloperidol, reversed a DOI-induced disruption. Only risperidone was effective in restoring a PPI deficit produced by dizocilpine. In contrast to the drug-induced disruptions which were differentially sensitive to the various neuroleptics, isolation-induced disruptions were restored by each drug. These results support the idea that non-drug induced disruptions of PPI, such as social isolation, may be a more viable approach to identify novel antipsychotics.

    Notes: Abstract Enlargement of the rat parotid salivary glands was induced by repeated administration of isoproterenol. Mean wet weights of the treated glands increased steadily to 240% of control values. Following withdrawal of the drug, quantitative histological techniques were used to investigate the balance between hypertrophy, hyperplasia and apoptosis. The volume occupied by acinar cells relative to the total gland volume together with cytoplasmic|:|nuclear area ratios as measures of hypertrophy increased during the early experimental period. Similarly, serous acinar cell mitotic counts increased, indicating that hyperplasia had occurred. Apoptosis was demonstrated at light microscopical level to be the main mechanism for cell deletion as the glands returned to normal size and weight. The results indicate that hypertrophy and hyperplasia of serous acinar cells contribute to isoproterenol-induced sialadenosis. The experimental animal model demonstrates that these proliferative changes are completed by 48 h and thereafter are balanced by apoptosis as the glands recover their normal size and weight.

    Notes: Abstract. Antisera specific for mammalian atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) were applied to examine, in immunofluorescence, the occurrence of cells immunoreactive to ANP and NPY in the adrenal organs of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and bony fish. Catecholamine-containing cells were identified using antisera against tyrosine-hydroxylase, dopamine-β-hydroxylase, and phenylethanolamine-N-methyl-transferase. In all vertebrates studied, immu- noreactivities to ANP and NPY occurred in adrenal chromaffin cells but were absent from the cortex or its homolog, the interrenal. The majority of immunoreactivities to ANP and NPY was confined to the adrenaline cells. In mammals, the number of ANP-immuno-reactive cells (60%–80% of the total cell population) exceeded that of the NPY-immunoreactive cells (35%–45%). In birds, reptiles, and Amphibia, the numbers of ANP-immunoreactive (35%–40%) and NPY-immunoreactive (30%–35%) cells were in a similar range. The bony fish showed a density of both ANP-immunoreactive (80%–90%) and NPY-immunoreactive (35%–40%) cells. In all species studied, immunoreactivities to ANP and NPY partially coexisted. Generally, 30%–55% of the ANP-immunoreactive cells also contained NPY-immunoreactivity. In rat, coexistence amounted to almost 100% and in quail to 95%. Except for the rat, three subpopulations of chromaffin cells seemed to occur: ANP-immunoreactive non-NPY-immunoreactive, ANP-immunoreactive+NPY-immunoreactive, and NPY-immunoreactive non-ANP-immunoreactive cells. Thus, adrenal ANP and NPY share a conservative history and coexist as early as at the level of bony fish. The endocrine actions of ANP and NPY derived from medullary cells on cortical cells as found in mammals might be based on an ancestoral paracrine system. In submammalians, ANP and NPY may not only act as endocrine hormones, but also influence steroid-producing interrenal cells in a paracrine manner, and act as modulators on chromaffin cells.

    Notes: Abstract. The opioidergic innervation of the mammalian spleen and possible species differences were investigated. Light-microscopic immunohistochemistry revealed that splenic nerves of bovine and porcine spleen, but not of rat, mouse, hamster and guinea-pig spleen contained proenkephalin-derived opioidergic innervation. Immunoreactivity to both prodynorphin and pro-opiomelanocortin was absent from splenic nerves. In bovine and porcine spleen, fibers immunoreactive for met-enkephalin, met-enkephalin-Arg-Phe, met-enkephalin-Arg-Gly-Leu, leu-enkephalin and peptide F formed perivascular plexus, traveled in trabecular connective tissue, and extended into the capsule. Spatial relationships with immune cells were apparent in the white and red pulp, excluding lymphoid follicles. Colocalization of enkephalin immunoreactivity with immunoreactivities for tyrosin hydroxylase, dopamin-β-hydroxylase, and neuropeptide Y, but not for substance P or calcitonin gene-related peptide were found. Our results provide evidence that opioid expression in splenic innervation is strongly species-dependent and exclusively proenkephalin-derived. Colocalization with marker enzymes of noradrenergic neurons indicates a mainly postganglionic sympathetic origin of proenkephalinergic splenic innervation. Opioidergic perivascular nerves probably control the splenic blood flow. A close interrelationship of opioidergic fibers with immune cells provides the anatomical basis for direct effects of neurally released opioids on splenic immune functions.

    Notes: Abstract Hyperbaric oxygen at pressures of 300 to 500 kPa has been shown to induce changed distribution of cerebral blood flow ( $$\dot Q$$ CBF) in rats, in places reducing the supply of the supplementary O2. Thus, in the present study, the effect of hyperoxia at 101 (group 1, n = 9) and 150 (group 2, n = 9) kPa OZ on cerebral blood flow distribution and central haemodynamics was tested in conscious, habituated rats. During the control period the systolic arterial pressure (BPs), heart rate (f c), breathing frequency (f b), cardiac output ( $$\dot Q$$ c), arterial acid-base chemistry and glucose, as well as $$\dot Q$$ CBF distribution (r $$\dot Q$$ CBF) were similar in the two groups of animals. During O2 exposure, the acid-base chemistry remained unchanged. The haemoglobin decreased in group 2, but remained unchanged in group 1. The f c decreased rapidly in both groups during the change in gas composition, after which f c remained constant both in group 1 and in group 2, for whom pressure was increased. The $$\dot Q$$ c and f b decreased and BPs increased similarly in the two groups. Total $$\dot Q$$ CBF and r $$\dot Q$$ CBF decreased to the same extent in both groups, and the r $$\dot Q$$ CBF changes were equally scattered. In group 1, breathing of pure O2 did not increase the O2 supply to any cerebral region except to the thalamus and colliculi after 60 min, whereas the O2 supply to the hypothalamus decreased and remained low. In group 2, the O2 supply was unchanged compared to the control period in all regions. These findings agree with previous observations during exposures to higher O2 pressures. In air after O2 exposure the acid-base chemistry remained normal. The f c and f b increased to higher levels than during the control period. The BPs remained high. The brain blood flows were increased, inducing elevated O2 supply to several brain regions compared to the control period. In conclusion, O2 supply to the central nervous system was found to be in the main unchanged during breathing of O2 at 101 kPa and 150 kPa.

    Notes: Abstract The inclusion of peas (Pisum sativum L.) as the source of protein in the diet of growing rats brings about a reduction in growth rate as well as the impairment in the liver, muscle and spleen weights as compared with casein fed controls. Also, a fall in plasma glucose, triglycerides and protein was observed in the legume fed animals, while no changes in cholesterol levels were found. Furthermore, the rats fed on the diet containing peas showed lower levels of plasma insulin, corticosterone, IGF-I and T4 as compared with casein controls. Liver and muscle total protein (mg) and total DNA (mg) were markedly decreased in the legume fed animals, but DNA/g, protein/DNA and RNA/protein ratios were similar in both dietary groups. Likewise, liver and muscle fractional synthesis rates were similar in the casein and legume groups, while the whole body protein synthesis is assumed to be lower in the legume fed animals due to differences in body weights. It is concluded that animals fed on a diet containing peas (Pisum sativum L.) as the only source of protein showed less adverse effects than those found with other legumes such asVicia faba L. orPhaseolus vulgaris L., in which protein quality, antinutritional factors and nutrient availability could be involved.

    Notes: Abstract The purpose of the present study was to examine the regeneration of myelinated axons under the effect of laser irradiation at various wavelengths and energy densities. Laser irradiation at 890 nm with an energy dose of 0.33 J cm−2 as well as He-Ne laser irradiation failed to change the number of regenerating myelinated axons in distal nerve stumps on the 30th day after cutting the nerve. An increase of dose delivered to the skin to 9.33 J cm−2 resulted in a 49% decrease in the number of myelinated axons. A 24% suppression of nerve regeneration was also registered using 1220 nm wavelength laser (dose 0.98 J cm−2). This phenomenon is likely to be attributed to the stimulating effect of laser irradiation of the near-infra-red range on proliferation of fibroblasts and scar formation. 1220 nm of 7.2 J cm−2 dose effected neither the growth nor the myelinization of axons in distal nerve stumps on the 20th day following nerve damage.

    Notes: By in situ lithiation of the trifunctional amines H3CC(CH2NHSiMe3)3, PhC(CH2NHSiMe3)3, and HC{SiMe2NH(p-Tolyl)}3 and subsequent reaction with SnCl2 the corresponding triamidostannates were obtained. These were coupled with CpM(CO)2Cl (M = Fe, Ru) to yield the M - Sn-bonded heterobimetallics 9-14 of which H3CC(CH2NSiMe3)3SnFe(CO)2Cp (9) was characterized by a single-crystal X-ray structure analysis. Of the in situ-generated amidostannates only [HC{SiMe2N(p-Tolyl)}3Sn][Li(THF)3] (8) could be isolated as a uniform product and characterized analytically and spectroscopically.

    Notes: The structures of cationic species of the series [X2Y—N—YX2]+ (X = F, Cl; Y = S, Se) have been computed ab initio using all electron treatments for first-row elements and sulfur and quasi-relativistic pseudopotentials for Se and Cl. Splitvalence basis sets with polarization and diffuse functions were employed. The MP2 results for the (non-isostructural!) cations [Cl2Se—N—SeCl2]+ (1: Cs) and [F2S—N—SF2]+ (2: C2v) are in excellent agreement with the experimental (X-ray) observations. Both structures represent local minima. A deeper minimum for either of the cations is represented by another C2v isomer which for crystal lattice energy reasons is stable in the isolated state only. The geometries of the hitherto unknown species [Cl2S—N—SCl2]+ (3) and [F2Se—N—SeF2]+ (4) have been assessed by ab initio HF calculations. In analogy to 2, cations 3 and 4 are predicted to prefer C2v symmetry. Therefore, 1 exhibits unusual structural features. According to strictly localized natural bond orbital analysis (NBO), the central nitrogen atoms in 1 and 2 possess two lone pairs of electrons (LP: one sp hybrid and one p orbital). The relatively short Se—N and S—N bond distances in 1 (1.741-1.760 Å) and 2 (1.551 Å) can best be attributed to LP(N)→s̰*(Y—X) negative hyperconjugation (1: Y = Se, X = Cl; 2: Y = S, X = F).

    Notes: Vinylidene Transition-Metal Complexes, XXXV[1].  -  The Supporting Role of Phosphino Ester Ligands for the Synthesis of Neutral Carbene, Vinylidene and Allenylidene Ruthenium(II) ComplexesThe reaction of [RuCl2(PPh3)3] (1) with the phosphino esters iPr2P(CH2)nCO2R (2-4) leads to complete (n = 1; R = CH3, C2H5) or partial (n = 2; R =CH3) displacement of the PPh3 ligands and formation of the octahedral ruthenium(II) complexes [RuCl2{k2(P,O)-iPr2PCH2CO2R}2] (5, 6) and [RuCl2(PPh3){k(P)-iPr2PCH2CH2CO2Me}{k2(P,O)-iPr2PCH2CH2CO2Me}] (7). Treatment of 5 with LiBr and LiI affords the dibromo- and diiodoruthenium derivatives 8 and 9. While compound 5 reacts with CO and SO2 by cleavage of one Ru - O bond to yield the 1:1 adducts [RuCl2(L){k(P)-iPr2PCH2CO2Me}{k2(P,O)-iPr2PCH2CO2Me}] (10, 11), the reaction of the dibromo derivative 8 with CO in solution gives the dicarbonyl complex [RuBr2(CO)2{k(P)-iPr2PCH2CO2Me}2](13). If CO is passed over 8 in the solid state, the corresponding monocarbonyl compound 14 is formed. The hydridoruthenium(II) complex 16, which is obtained from equimolar amounts of [RuHCl(CO)(PiPr3)2] (15) and 2, reacts with HC≡CMe by insertion to give the vinyl derivative [RuCl{E - CH=CHMe}(CO)(PiPr3){k2(P,O)-iPr2CH2CO2Me}] (17). Treatment of 5 with HC̊' (R' = H, Me, tBu, Ph) and of 6, 8, 9 with HC≡CPh affords upon photochemical activation the octahedral vinylidene complexes [RuX2-(=C=CHR){k(P)-iPr2PCH2CO2R}{k2(P,O)-iPr2PCH2CO2R}] (18-21 and 23-25) in good to excellent yield. At room temperature, these compounds (with the exception of 25) are highly fluxional in solution. From 31P-NMR measurements, the free energies of activation ΔG

    Notes: Reactions of R2Al—AlR2 (R = CH(SiMe3)2) with Trimethylsilyl Azide  -  Insertion into the Al—Al Bond and Formation of a Trimeric Dialkylaluminium AzideTetrakis[bis(trimethylsilyl)methyl]dialuminium(4) (1) reacts with trimethylsilyl azide under insertion of one nitrogen atom into the Al—Al bond. As shown by NMR spectra and crystal structure the product contains three and four coordinated Al atoms due to the coordination of the α-nitrogen atom of the azide group to one of the Al atoms. An electronically delocalized N3-system is formed with a N—N bond length of 132.0 pm and a bond order of 1.5 for both N—N bonds. With an excess of trimethylsilyl azide further reaction is observed only under mild irradiation conditions with an exchange of the azide group between Si and Al and formation of Me6Si2 and the dialkylaluminium azide 3, which is better synthesized by the reaction of Me3Si—N3 with Cl—Al[CH(SiMe3)2]2. The sterically highly shielded aluminium azide 3 is a trimer in the solid state showing a non-planar 12-membered Al3N9 heterocycle with short N—N bonds (114 pm).

    Notes: Dihydrobis(tetrazolyl)borate metal compounds of the composition [M(L)2{μ-H2B(CHN4)2}2]n for M = Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, Cd with L = H2O and for M = Cu with L = NH3 are obtained from metal salts and K[H2B(CHN4)2]. Single-crystal X-ray studies reveal the formation of two-dimensional rhombic grid sheets through the bridging action of the bis(tetrazolyl)borate ligands. Each metal atom is octahedrally coordinated with two trans L ligands and four H2B(CHN4)-2 nitrogen donors. Two additional, hydrogen-bonded water molecules occupy the rhombic openings in the compounds with M = Mn, Fe, Co, Zn, and Cd. The water of crystallization is held in place through hydrogen bonding from the water ligands and to the nitrogen atoms to give a substructure of parallel kinked water chains. Temperature-variable magnetic measurements show a Curie-Weiss behavior for the paramagnetic complexes with M = Mn, Fe, Co, and Cu.

    Notes: Hydrophosphorylation of 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)butadiyne with diphenylphosphane leads to the butadiene (Ph2P)2C=CH—CH=C(PPh2)2 (1). Treatment of 1 with dimethylsulfonium methylide gives the vinylcyclopropane (Ph2P)2C=CH—CH(CH2)C(PPh2)2 (2). Compound 2 reacts with aqueous hydrogen peroxide, elemental sulfur, or selenium to afford the tetrachalcogenides (Ph2XP)2C=CH—CH(CH2)C(PXPh2)2 with X = O (3), X = S (4), X = Se (5), respectively. While the tetraphosphane 1 and the vinyl-cyclopropane compound 2 cannot be converted into a bis-(cyclopropyl) compound with an excess of Me2S=CH2, the tetrasulfide 4 readily affords a mixture of (1R,1′R)-/(1S,1′S)-and meso-2,2,2′,2′-tetrakis(diphenylthiophosphinyl)-1,1′-bicyclopropyl (6, 7) in good yield. Treatment of 1,1,4,4-tetrakis-(diphenylphosphanyl)butatriene with dimethylsulfonium methylide leads to the vinylidenecyclopropane (Ph2P)2C=C=C(CH2)C(PPh2)2 (8). Compound 8 is converted into its tetrasulfide (Ph2SP)2C=C=C(CH2)C(PSPh2)2 (9) by treatment with elemental sulfur. The crystal structures of 1, 2, 4, 7, and 8 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

    Notes: Mono- and Diferriophosphanes and -thioxophosphoranesHerrn Professor Dr. Ekkehard Lindner zum 60. Geburtstag gewidmet.The substitution of organic substituents in phosphanes or thioxophosphoranes by the 17-electron fragments CpFe-(CO)2 (—Fp) leads to isolobal ferriophosphanes or -thioxophosphoranes. The mono- and diferriophosphanes FpnPPh3-n [n = 1 (3), 2 (4)] are obtained by deprotonation of the mono- and diferriophosphonium salts [FpnPPh3-nH]X [n = 1 (1), 2 (2)] with DBU. They are oxidized by sulfur giving the mono- and diferriothioxophosphoranes FpnPPh3-n(S) [n = 1 (5), 2 (6)]. Sulfide 5 arises also from the reaction of CpFe(CO)2Cl and Ph2PH(S)/DBU. The one-sided decarbonylation reaction of 6 leads to FpFp′PPh(S) (7, Fp′ = CpFeCO). The Fp substituents (17 electrons) in 3-7 coordinate as one-electron donors to the PhnP- or PhnP(S) units (n = 1, 2). The bridging functions in 4 and 6 are hitherto unknown. The molecular structures of the complexes 5-7 were determined by X-ray structure analyses.

In contrast, M(BH4)2 · 2 THF compounds are chain polymers in the solid state, and each metal center is surrounded by 2 THF molecules in trans position and four BH4- groups each of which forms bridges with two metal centers. Estimations of the effective radius for the BH4 group indicate a high polarity for the M-BH4 interaction.

Using 2-amino-1,3-thiazole (4) and 2-aminobenzothiazoles 8, we obtained mixtures of the 1,5- and 4,5-anellated 1,4,2-diazaphospholes 5/6, 9a/10a and 9b/10b, while in the case of the methyl derivative 8c only the [1,4,2]diazaphospholo[5,4-b][1,3]benzothiazole 10c was formed. In the reaction of 2-aminothiazole and 2-aminopyrazine with Chloromethyldichlorophosphane the bis(diazaphospholo)-substituted chloromethylphosphanes 7 and 20 could be detected. The new anellated 1,4,2-diazaphospholes are colorless to pale yellow crystalline moisture-sensitive solids.

An intermediate formed in the reaction of 1b with hexachlorodisilane, the adduct iPr(iPr2N)(Cl)P-Si(Cl)3-SiCl3 (3b = 1b · Si2Cl6), was detected by 31P- and 29Si-NMR spectra that indicate pentacoordinated silicon bound to tetracoordinated phosphorus and tetracoordinated silicon. Trichlorosilylphosphanes 2 are also available from 1 under very mild conditions by reductive trichlorosilylation with trichlorosilane in the presence of triethylamine. Compounds 2 were identified analytically, by mass spectroscopy, multinuclear NMR, and an X-ray structure determination of 2c.

    Notes: Trimethyltin alkoxides (2) react stereoselectively with 3-diethylboryl-4-ethyl-1,1-dimethylstannole (1) via addition of the Me3Sn group to C(2) to the C(2) = C(3) bond and a 1,2 shift of an ethyl group from boron to C(3) to give the 2-stannolenes 3. The molecular structure of 3f' [R = (S)-2-Bu] was determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis, confirming the cis positions of the Et(RO)B and the Me3Sn group. These 2-stannolenes 3 undergo, upon heating to ca. 80°C, facile rearrangement by irreversible allylic migration of the Et(RO)B group to the 3-stannolenes 4 in which the cis positions of the boryl and the stannyl group are retained. All 2-stannolenes (in contrast to the 3-stannolenes) are readily deprotoborylated to give the 3-stannolene 5. The structures of 3, 4, and 5 follow conclusively from 1H-, 11B-, 13C-, and 119Sn-NMR spectra. The negative sign of the geminal coupling constants 2J(SnSn) was determined in the case of 3, 4, and 5 by 2D 119Sn/1H heteronuclear shift correlations.

    Notes: 9-Borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBNH) reacts with monocarboxylic acids to afford 9-(acyloxy)-9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonanes which are dimers in the solid state as shown by X-ray crystal structures of the benzoate and pivalate. More complex reactions were observed by allowing 9-BBNH to react with dicarboxylic acids in THF or monoglyme. Thus, (9-BBN)2 oxalate 3 contains a fully delocalized oxalate unit with equal C-O and B-O bond lengths. Traces of water convert it into the tetrakis(9-BBN) oxalate 5. A rather unusual structure is veryfied by 9-BBN 2,2-dimethylmalonate 7 which according to its molecular structure is a tetramer featuring a 32-membered ring system. In contrast, reactions of oxalic acid with thexylborane leads to reduction of the acid and formation of a bicyclic dioxaborolo-dioxaborolane 10. Several intermediates were detected by 11B-NMR spectroscopy as well as in reactions of BH3 · THF or BH3 · SMe2 with oxalic acid.  -  It follows from the present study that (acyloxy)boranes derived from dicarboxylic acids are strong Lewis acids with an unexpected variety of structural features.

    Notes: Four drugs whose actions have a relation to the status of zinccontaining species in the human body were used as ligands in zinc complexes. Captopril (H2Cap) forms the compound [ZnCap] (1) presumed to be a coordination polymer with O and S coordination. Isoniazid, in the presence of zinc salts, is converted to 1,2-diisonicotinoyl hydrazide (H2Nih) which forms polymeric [Zn(Nih)NH3] (2) with trigonal-bipyramidal ZnO2N3 coordination. Nalidixic acid (HNal) and zinc perchlorate yield [Zn(HNal)2(H2O)2](ClO4)2 · 2 H2O (3) containing zinc in an octahedral ZnO6 environment. Mercaptopurine (H2Mer), in the presence of ammonia, forms [Zn(Mer)(NH3)2] . H2O (4) which is a coordination polymer containing tetrahedral ZnN4 units. The structures of [Zn(Nih)NH3], [Zn(HNal)2(H2O)2](ClO4)2 . 2 H2O, and [Zn(Mer)(NH3)2] . 2 H2O were determined diffractometrically.

    Notes: Benzyl dialkyl phosphates are deprotonated enantioselectively by homochiral lithium amides of isopropyl(1-phenylethyl)amine or bis(1-phenylethyl)amine. The short-lived benzylic carbanions formed are virtually configurationally stable relative to the rearrangement to optically active phenyl-hydroxymethylphosphonates. The enantiomeric excesses are up to 50%. The pro-(S) hydrogen is removed by amides having (S) configuration. Homochiral diethyl (S)-phenyl[D1]-methyl phosphate [(S)-16c] is deprotonated by both LDA and n-BuLi with a high primary kinetic isotope effect (kH/D ≍ 50) and isomerizes to the corresponding α-hydroxy phosphonate with an enantiomeric excess of up to 85%.

In more detail three novel aza-crown ether-linked (phenanthroline)iron complexes were investigated, the redox potentials of which could be fine-tuned by the addition of group-Ia,IIa metal cations. All iron(II) complexes showed reversible waves at scan rates between 50 and 500 mV · s-1 and could be reversibly oxidized and reduced by chemical means.

    Notes: The mononuclear rhodium complexes [(C5H5CH2C5H4)-Rh(CO)2] (1) and [(C5H5CH2C5H4)Rh(PhC≡CPh)(PiPr3)] (2) readily react with nBuLi or TlOEt to yield the corresponding lithium salts 3 and 4 or thallium salts 5 and 6. The reaction of these salts with [(C5H5)Nb(NtBu)Cl2] (7) leads to the formation of the heterodinuclear compounds [{CH2(C5H4)2}-{Rh(CO)2}{(C5H5)Nb(NtBu)Cl}] (8) and [{CH2(C5H4)2}-{Rh(PhC≡CPh)(PiPr3)}{(C5H5)Nb(NtBu)Cl}] (9), respectively. Treatment of 3-6 with [Mo(NtBu)2Cl2] (10) gives the heterodinuclear Rh/Mo complexes [{CH2(C5H4)2}{Rh(CO)2}-{Mo(NtBu)2Cl}] (11) and [{CH2(C5H4)2}{Rh(PhC≡CPh)-(PiPr3)}{Mo(NtBu)2Cl}] (12). The analogous reaction of [Mo(NMes)2Cl2(DME)] (13) with 3-6 yields the corresponding complexes [{CH2(C5H4)2}{Rh(CO)2}{Mo(NMes)2Cl}] (14) and [{CH2(C5H4)2}{Rh(PhC≡CPh)(PiPr3)}{Mo(NMes)2Cl}] (15). From the monometallated ligand [(C5H5CH2C5H4)M] (M = Li: 16; M = Tl: 17) and the imidometal compounds 7, 10 and 13, the mononuclear complexes [(C5H5CH2C5H4)(C5H5)Nb-(NtBu)Cl] (18) and [(C5H5CH2C5H4)Mo(NR)2Cl] (R = tBu: 19; R = Mes: 20) have been obtained.

    Notes: Mesityl[tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl]methanol (1) reacts with strong bases with elimination of trimethylsilanolate according to a Peterson-type mechanism, the outcome of the reaction being dependent on solvent, temperature, and nature of the organometallic base applied. Thus, 1 was converted by treatment with MeLi in ether at -78°C to (E)-1,2,3,8a-tetra -hydro-1-mesityl-5,7,8a-trimethyl-2,2,3,3-tetrakis (trimethylsi-lyl)-2,3-disilanaphthalene (3), formally a [2 + 4] cyclodimer of the transient silene (Me3Si)2Si=CHMes (2). The reaction of 1 with PhMgBr in THF after some days resulted in the formation of (Z)-3,4-dimesityl-1,1,2,2-tetrakis(trimethylsilyl) -1,2-disilacyclobutane (6) as the main product besides small quantities of 3, the polysilane (Me3SiSi(SiMe3)2CH2Mes (10), and the alkoxysilane (Me3Si)3SiCH(Mes)OSi(Si-Me3)2CH2Mes (7). Compound 6, the formal [2 + 2] cycloadduct of 2, can also be obtained by thermal treatment of 3 and is considered to be the thermodynamically more stable silene dimer whereas 3 is the kinetically preferred product. At high LiBr concentrations in the reaction mixture 1 was converted by PhMgBr in THF to (E)-2,4-dimesityl-1,1,3,3-tetrakis(tri- methylsilyl)-1,3-disilacyclobutane (13) besides 6 and [bis(tri-methylsilyl)silyl]mesityl(trimethylsiloxy)methane (11). The unforeseen formation of 13 is discussed as proceeding via the silene-lithium bromide adduct (Me3Si)2Si(Br)CH(Li)Mes (12). In the absence of LiBr 1 was converted by MeLi in THF at -78°C to 11 and the trisilane (Me3Si)2Si(Me)CH2Mes (4b). Probable pathways of the formation of all new compounds are discussed. For 6 and 13 the results of the X-ray structural analyses are given.

    Notes: 1,4-Diol derivatives 4a-i were synthesized stereoselectively by either reagent- or catalyst-controlled routes using the addition of functionalized diorganozinc reagents to aldehydes. The stereoselectivities along the reagent-controlled synthetic path were in the range between 80:20 and 95:5. The stereoselectivities along the catalyst route exceeded 95:5. The 1,4-diol derivatives 4 thus obtained were transformed into enantiomerically pure cis- and trans-2,5-disubstituted tetrahydrofurans (16-20) by means of an intramolecular Williamson reaction.

    Notes: The diboration of the diazene PhN = NSiMe3 (15) by diborane(4) derivatives provides a new synthetic route to N,N'-diborylated hydrazines. The product formed depends on the type of the diborane(4) compound. Thus, addition of dimesityldiboron dichloride to 15 in a 1:1 ratio afforded (mesCIB)PhN-N(SiMe3)(BClmes) (16) while bis(dimethyl-amino)diboron dichloride was found to react in a 1:2 ratio to give a triazadiborolidine derivative 17. In addition, it was demonstrated that in the solid state Me2N-N(BPh2)2 (8) is a derivative of a three-membered dihydroazadiboriridine C while its isomer, (Ph2B)MeN-NMe(BPh2) (7), forms no BN coordinative bond. The new 3,6-difluoro-1,2,4,5-tetraza-3,6-diborine 13 shows a twist conformation. The molecular structures of all these compounds were determined by X-ray crystal structure analysis, and the influence of the B substituent on the conformation is discussed.

The crystal structures of the disilver hexafluo-roantimonate complexes 4a-b were determined. The use of the hexafluoroantimonate counterion and solvent mixtures containing toluene both proved crucial in obtaining single crystals; toluene is incorportated into the crystal lattices.

    Notes: Tris(pyrazolyl)methane ligands in which two or three of the pyrazole carbon atoms bear organic substituents (L1-L7) were synthesized from chloroform and the corresponding pyrazole under phase transfer conditions. Their behavior towards zinc salts was found to span the range from no reaction at all to hydrolytic destruction. One hydrolysis product isolated and structurally characterized was the perchlorate complex [(HPz5)3Zn-OClO3]ClO4 (1), other ones were the 2:1 complexes (HPz3)2ZnBr2 (2) and (HPz6)2Zn(NO3)2 (3, HPzn = substituted pyrazole). Zinc perchlorate and tris(trimethylpy-razolyl)methane (L2) formed the octahedral binary complex [L22Zn](ClO4)2 (4) as evidenced by a structure determination. Zinc halides produced the 1:1 complexes L1 · ZnBr2 (5), L4 · ZnCl2 (6), and L4 · ZnBr2 (7), which according to the structure determinations of 6 and 7 contain tetrahedral ZnN2Hal2 units with only bidentate tris(pyrazolyl)methane ligands. In contrast, the zinc nitrate complex L4 · Zn(NO3)2 (8) was found to have an octahedral structure with mono- and bidentate nitrate and tridentate L4. The bromide complex 7 was converted by silver perchlorate hydrate into the labile compound [L4 · ZnBr]ClO4 (9) and then into the unstable product [L4 · Zn-OH2](ClO4)2 (10), both presumed to contain zinc in a tetrahedral ZnN3Br or ZnN3O environment, respectively. The ease of hydrolytic self-destruction prevented the exploitation of the reactivity of 9 and 10 in analogy to that of the corresponding tris(pyrazolyl)borate zinc complexes.

    Notes: The reactions between alkali and alkaline earth metal ions and nickel(II) macrocycles based on S-alkylated isothiosemi-carbazides with different crown ether cavity size were studied in propylene carbonate by spectrophotometric and calorimetric titrations. Metallomacrocycles 1 and 2 exhibit normal behavior on 1:1 complexation with alkali- and alkaline earth metal ions and resemble in this respect 15C5 and 18C6, respectively. The most stable complexes are formed by these “ligands” when the diameter of the cation and the crown ether hole have approximately the same size. The most striking feature of the complexation processes studied is the formation of 1:2 metal-ligand associates even in the case of the smallest cations. These associates are very different from “normal” crown ether sandwich complexes. In reality, the particle formed is an associate between a 1:1 complex, in which the corresponding metal ion is well accommdated inside the ligand cavity, and a second metallomacrocyclic ligand. Their formation is disfavored by enthalpic contributions. A special kind of “switch” from these associates to normal sandwich complexes takes place in the case of 1, when the cation diameter compared to hole size increases. The macrocycle 2 forms this kind of associates with all akali and alkaline earth ions.

The disilanes 4a - d are reconverted into 3a - d in the presence of tetrachloromethane. Extensive spectroscopic investigations (NMR, Raman, and IR spectroscopy) were performed to establish the transition-metal effect especially with respect to the H5Si2 ligand. The molecular structure of C5Me5(OC)2(Me3P)W - SiCl2 - SiCl3 (3d) was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

    Notes: Tetrahedra-tetrakis[tris(trimethylsilyl)methyl]tetraindane(4) (1) reacts with decacarbonyldimanganese(0) to yield the bright red crystalline title compound 2, in which two carbonyl ligands are replaced by two InR fragments. The crystal structure determination of 2 shows two Mn(CO)4 groups (Mn-Mn 313.7 pm) bridged by two monoalkylindium units and a planar Mn2In2 molecular center.

    Notes: Pentacarbonyltungsten-coordinated selenobenzaldehyde, [(CO)5W{Se=C(Ph)H}] (1), reacts with tBu-C≡C-SMe (2) by insertion of the C≡C into the Se=C bond to form in a highly regio- and stereoselective manner the α,β-unsaturated thioselonocarboxylic ester complex (Z)(C=C)-[(CO)5W{≡1-Se=C(SMe)C(tBu)=C(Ph)H}] (3). The thioselonocarboxylic ester ligand is cleaved intact from the metal by treatment of 3 with [NEt4]Br. Three complexes are formed in the reaction of 1 with Me-C≡C-SMe (5): the thioselonocarboxylic ester complex [(CO)5W{≡1-Se=C(SMe)C(Me)=C(Ph)H}] (6) as a mixture of the (E) and (Z)(C=C) isomers, a selenetane complex (7) and a dihydrodiselenine complex (8). The product distribution depends on the ratio 1:5 and on the solvent. The reaction of 1 with the bis(organylthio)alkynes RS-C≡C-SR (9) [R = Me (a), iPr (b), 2,6-C6H3Me2 (c)] yields mixtures of the (E) and (Z)(C=C) isomers of the α,β-unsaturated α-organylthio thioselonocarboxylic ester complexes [(CO)5W{≡1-Se=C(SR)C(SR)=C(Ph)H)] (10a-c). In contrast, the reaction of 1 with tert-butoxyethyne, H-C≡C-OtBu (11), affords a bis(pentacarbonyltungsten) 5,6-dihydro-1,2-diselenine complex (12). Compound 12 is probably formed by consecutive reaction of 1 with 11 to give the selonocarboxylic ester complex [(CO)5W{≡1-Se=C(OtBu)C(H)=C(Ph)H}] which then further reacts as a heterodiene by highly regioselective [4 + 2] cycloaddition with the Se=C bond of a second molecule of 1 to give 12. In the reaction of 1 with 5 and 9a the isomer with a trans arrangement of C(=Se)SMe and Ph is the kinetically controlled reaction product [(E)-6 and (Z)-10a, respectively]. The formation of (E)-6 and (Z)-10a is followed by isomerization until an (E)/(Z) equilibrium is reached. Complexes 3 and 7 were characterized by X-ray structural analyses.

    Notes: Ylidylphosphorus Sulfides, Selenides, Disulfides, Sulfide Selenides, and DiselenidesWe report on the first stable monomeric phosphorus mono-chalcogenides 2, 8 and the first stable dichalcogenides 4, 10 without bulky or intramolecularly coordinating substituents. They are stabilized by a high contribution of the zwitterionic resonance formula, which follows both from the NMR spectra and from an X-ray structure determination. Their preparation starts from triphenylphosphoniumylidyl-dichlorophosphanes 1. For the monochalcogenides they are treated with sodium sulfide or selenide or better with bis(trimethylsilyl) sulfide or selenide. In case of the C-phenyl and C-meta-tolyl representatives and also of the C-trimethylsilyl compound a number of secondary, partly novel products are obtained. - The dichalcogenides result from the reaction with sodium disulfide and diselenide, respectively, or from the oxidation of the monochalcogenides. - Alkylation of the monochalcogenides results in ylidylalkylchalcogenophosphenium salts 13, 15. In solution they are in equilibrium with more or less of the covalent form 14, 16, depending on the anion and on the solvent. Alkylation is often accompanied by secondary reactions. A diselenide loses selenium on alkylation.

Treatment of 6b, c with the chlorosilanes Me2Si(R)Cl [R = H (3b), [R = Cl (3c)] in the presence of triethylamine gives access to the metallo disiloxanes C5Me5(OC)2(Me3P)M-SiPh2OSiMe2R (M = Mo, R = H (7a); M = W, R = Cl (7b)]. The structure of tungsten silanol 6c is determined by X-ray diffraction analysis.

    Notes: Thermally and air-stable β-phosphaenones were synthesized by functionalization of Mes*P=CCl2 (1; Mes* = supermesityl = 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl). At low temperature, 1 was lithiated by halogen-metal exchange with n-butyllithium to give the phosphanylidene carbenoid (Z)-Mes*P=C(Cl)Li [(Z)-2] which reacted with acid chlorides to furnish the C-carbonyl-substituted phosphaalkenes (Z)-Mes*P=C(Cl)R (3: P = COtBu; 4: R = COPh; 5: R = COOEt). The reaction of (Z)-2 with carbon dioxide furnished the carboxylate 6, which was converted by treatment with pivaloyl chloride or trimethylsilyl chloride into the phosphaalkenes 7 and 8 functionalized at the carbon atom by an anhydride or a trimethylsilyl ester function, respectively. Acidification of 6 or hydrolysis of 8 with water in chloroform solution afforded the novel carboxylic acid (Z)-Mes*P=C(Cl)COOH (9). Spectroscopic investigations (NMR, UV, IR) of 3-9 and the X-ray structures of 3 and 4 are presented. Based on these properties and on theoretical calculations, the occurrence of conjugation in the β-phosphaenone system is discussed and compared with the well-known conjugation in normal enones.

    Notes: The dimethylamino-substituted phosphaalkene 1 reacts with hexafluoroacetone (HFA) with addition at the P=C bond to form the 1,5,2-dioxaphosphorinane 2. The structure of 2 was confirmed by an X-ray crystal structure analysis. The six-membered ring displays an envelope conformation with the phosphorus atom out of the plane, but the phosphorus is disordered over two sites. Reaction of P-trimethylsilyl-substituted phosphaalkenes with HFA proceeds with retention of the P=C double bond and insertion of HFA into the P—Si bond. Two isomeric products are obtained and are characterized by 1H-, 13C-, 19F-, and 31P-NMR spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis.

    Notes: Monomeric (Acetylacetonato)copper(I) Complexes of Alkynes and 1,4-DiynesMonomeric (η2-Me3SiC≡CSiMe3)Cu(acac) (3) is formed by the reaction of dimeric [(η2-Me3SiC≡CSiMe3)CuBr]2 (1) with two equivalents of Na(acac) (2). In a similar manner Me2-Si(C≡CSiMe3)2 (4) reacts with CuCl (5) and 2 to afford Me2Si[(η2-C≡CSiMe3)Cu(acac)]2 (6). In compounds 3 and 6 an alkyne unit is η2-coordinated to a monomeric Cu(acac) moiety with a copper atom in a planar environment. With the organometallic 1,4-diyne (η5-C5H4SiMe3)2Ti(C≡CSiMe3)2 (7), compound [(η5-C5H4SiMe3)2Ti(C≡CSiMe3)2]Cu(acac) (8) is formed. In 8 both Me3SiC≡C ligands of the 3-titanapenta-1,4-diyne fragment are η2-coordinated to a monomeric Cu-(acac) building block. The copper atom in 8 possesses a pseudo-tetrahedral environment (shown by X-ray analysis), built by the two Me3SiC≡C ligands of the (η5-C5H4SiMe3)2-Ti(C≡CSiMe3)2 moiety and the two oxygen atoms of the acetylacetonato ligand. 8 is additionally formed by the reaction of 3 or 6 with 7, or by treatment of [(η5-C5H4SiMe3)2Ti(C≡C-SiMe3)2]CuCl (9) with Na(acac) (2). The application of 3, 6, and 8 as precursors for the preparation of copper films in the CVD process of copper(I) is discussed.

    Notes: The solvation and ion pair nature of α-(phenylthio)benzyllithium (2d) in THF solution were investigated by NMR-spectroscopic methods. The effect of additives such as diethylene-glycol dimethyl ether or of 12-crown-4 was studied. The results were compared to those of benzyllithium compounds 4 and 6, containing a pentaoxapentadecane ansa chain. These compounds exist as contact ion pairs in which lithium is held at the anionic carbon. This is reflected in the 6Li,13C coupling and 1H,6Li-HOESY contacts in the NMR spectra.

    Notes: The tetrathiaoxalate complex Cp4Ti2C2S4 (1) reacts with an equimolar amount of COCl2 to give the blue-green mononuclear complex Cp2TiC2S4CO (4). This reaction is analogous to the known reactions of 1 with SCl2 or S2Cl2. However, when 1 was treated with equimolar amounts of the bifunctional sulfenyl chlorides 1,2-C2H4(SCl)2 (5), 1,3-C3H6(SCl)2 (6) or 1,2-C6H4(SCl)2 (7), the bi- or monocyclic tetrakisdisulfanes C6H8S8 (9b), C8H12S8 (10), and C14H8S8 (11), respectively, were obtained. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of 11 · CS2 showed that 11 possesses Ci symmetry with a central exocyclic CC double bond similar to tetrathiafulvalenes: C6H4(μ-S2)2C=C(μ-S2)2C6H4.

    Notes: The reaction of [Mo(CO)4(C7H8)] (1) with I2 gave the norbornadienemolybdenum(II) complex [Mo(CO)2(C7H8)I2]n≥1 (2), which existed in an equilibrium of two isomeric forms. In acetonitrile, 2 reversibly formed the adduct [Mo(CO)2-(C7H8)(NCCH3)I2] (3), whereas on treatment with 2,2′-bipyridine or 4,4′-di-2,2′-tBu-bipyridine, it gave stable 7-coordinated molybdenum(II) complexes, [Mo(CO)(C7H8)-(C10H8N2)I2] (4) and [Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H6tBu2N2)I2] (5), in good yield. In similar reactions, the related dibromomolybdenum compounds [Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H8N2)Br2] (6) and [Mo-(CO)(C7H8)(C10H6tBu2N2)Br2] (7) were prepared by oxidation of 1 with two equivalents of CuBr2. The X-ray structural analysis of 6 reveals that the geometry around the molybdenum atom is nearly perfectly pentagonal bipyramidal, with the CO and one of the bipyridyl rings perpendicular to the plane formed by the other ligands. The compounds 5 and 6 react with AgSbF6 by halogen abstraction to give cationic complexes, {[Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H8N2)Br]SbF6}n≥1 (8) and {[Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H6tBu2N2)I]SbF6}n≥1 (9): In acetone, 8 and 9 reversibly formed the adducts [Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H8N2)(acetone)Br]SbF6 (8′) and [Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H6tBu2N2)(acetone)I]SbF6 (9′); while on treatment with PMe3, the stable monomeric complexes, [Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H8N2)(PMe3)Br]SbF6 (10) and [Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H6tBu2N2)(PMe3)I]SbF6 (11), were isolated in almost quantitative yield. In the presence of KBr, compound 8′ reverted to the dibromo complex 6, whereas 9′ reacted to produce a 1:1:2 mixture of 5, 7 and the bromo(iodo) complex [Mo(CO)(C7H8)(C10H6tBu2N2)BrI] (12). The same mixture is available from the reaction of 5 with one equivalent of 7.

    Notes: Racemic and optically active 1-phenylethyl esters of pivalic, ( - )-camphanic and 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoic acid were prepared. The esters 7a of pivalic acid were deprotonated with lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide (Li-TMP) to form α-oxy-α-methylbenzyllithium compounds which are partly con-figurationally stable prior to acylation with starting material. Camphanic ester (-)-7b cannot be deprotonated by Li-TMP and tBuLi is added to the ester function to afford ketone (-)-12a. 1-Phenylethyl 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzoates 16 were transformed within minutes to carbanions 19 by using sBuLi/TMEDA in THF, hexane, toluene and sBuLi without TMEDA in toluene/20% diethyl ether at -78°C. The carbanions are configurationally stable only in toluene/20% diethyl ether and racemise partly in the other solvents. They react with a variety of electrophiles with either retention [MeOD, AcOD, (MeO)2CO, CICO2Me] or inversion (Me3SnCl) of configuration. Carbanions 19 rearrange on warming to -20°C to hydroxy ketone 24 with racemisation.

The reported synthesis is a new and simple route to this precursor of organometallic compounds. Zr(oep)Cl2 was characterized by elemental analyses, 1H- and 13C-NMR, UV/Vis, and mass spectra. Hydrolysis yielded a mixture of mono- and binuclear hydroxy zirconium(IV) porphyrins.
