    Notes: Summary In situ hybridization procedure with a 32P-labelled synthetic oligonucleotide probe was used to detect corticotropin-releasing factor-encoding messenger RNA (CRF mRNA) in the hypothalamus of the white sucker, Catostomus commersoni. Adjacent sections were immunostained by a sucker CRF-specific antiserum. CRF mRNA-containing neurons were identified by autoradiography in the magnocellular and parvocellular subdivisions of the preoptic nucleus (PON). Many of these neurons were also immunostained by sucker antiserum, showing the same distribution patterns. These results confirm the presence of CRF mRNA and CRF peptide in the white sucker hypothalamus and support the view that the magnocellular and parvocellular neurons of the PON may be involved in the control of adrenocorticotropic hormone secretion from the pituitary in the white sucker.

    Notes: Summary Sympathetic neurotransmitters have been shown to be present in the ovary of the rat during early postnatal development and to affect steroidogenesis before the ovary becomes responsive to gonadotropins, and before the first primordial follicles are formed. This study was undertaken to determine if development of the ovarian innervation is an event that antedates the initiation of folliculogenesis in the rat, Rattus norvegicus. Serial sections of postnatal ovaries revealed a negligible frequency of follicles 24 h after birth (about 1 primordial follicle per ovary). Twelve hours later there were about 500 follicles per ovary, a number that more than doubled to about 1300 during the subsequent 12 h, indicating that an explosive period of follicular differentiation occurs between the end of postnatal days 1 and 2. Electron microscopy demonstrated that before birth the ovaries are already innervated by fibers containing clear and dense-core vesicles. Immunohistochemistry performed on either fetal (day 19) or newborn (less than 15h after birth) ovaries showed the presence of catecholaminergic nerves, identified by their content of immunoreactive tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), the rate-limiting enzyme in catecholamine biosynthesis. While some of these fibers innervate blood vessels, others are associated with primordial ovarian cells, thereby suggesting their participation in non-vascular functions. Since prefollicular ovaries are insensitive to gonadotropins, the results suggest that the developing ovary becomes subjected to direct neurogenic influences before it acquires responsiveness to gonadotropins.

    Notes: Summary The blood group ABO(H) determinants are major allogenic antigens in both erythrocytes and tissue of man. These antigens and related carbohydrates are markers of cellular maturation and differentiation in many epithelial tissues and have recently attracted great interest as tumor-associated antigens. Previous studies of endometrial tissues have indicated that glycosylation in this tissue may be related to hormonal stimulation. We have investigated the immunohistochemical distribution of type-2 chain histo-blood group-related carbohydrates in specimens of normal, cycling endometria obtained from hysterectomies on women with known ABO/Lewis erythrocyte type and saliva secretor status. N-acetyllactosamine and Lex were demonstrated to be uninfluenced by the genetic background. A and Aley antigens were exclusively demonstrated in endometria from blood group A individuals, while Ley was expressed in endometria from blood group 0 individuals mainly. The precursor N-acetyllactosamine as well as the terminal H, A, and ALey antigens were shown in only a few cells. In contrast, N-acetyllactosamine substituted by sialic acid and/or fucose residues (Lex, sialosyl-Lex, Ley) were demonstrated in epithelial cells of normal, cycling endometrium, but with both quantitative and qualitative differences in staining relating to the menstrual cycle, indicating that type-2 chain antigens are expressed under both genetic and hormonal influence in human cycling endometrium.

    Notes: Summary Distribution of the eosinophil major basic protein (MBP) was studied in the rat uterus horn and cervix by means of immunohistochemistry using an antiserum raised against rat MBP. Various hormonal contexts were investigated: pre- and post-parturition, the estrous cycle, and ovariectomy followed by hormonal treatment or without treatment. MBP was detectable in the cervix as early as 12 h post-partum, appearing in the stroma close to the myometrium. The MBP had spread throughout the stroma toward the luminal epithelium after a few days. In contrast, no MBP was seen in sections of the corresponding pre- and post-partum uteri and in the pre-partum cervix. In cycling rats, MBP was distributed equally in the cervix and uterus and was more abundant during proestrus and estrus. In ovariectomized rats and in ovariectomized rats subsequently treated with progesterone, no MBP was detected in the cervix or uterus. In the cervix of ovariectomized rats treated with estradiol, MBP first appeared in the muscle layer situated between the two cervical lumina and then reached the stroma; within a few days only the stroma was stained. Inversely, in the uterus MBP-staining first appeared in the stroma. In conclusion, analysis of the distribution of MBP in rat uterus revealed a marked difference in the response of the cervix and horn to a hormonal environment.

    Notes: Summary Xenopsin (Xp) and xenopsin precursor fragment (XPF) are bioactive peptides derived from a single precursor molecule; both were isolated previously from extracts of Xenopus laevis skin. The present immunohistochemical study was undertaken to determine the specific cellular localization of these two peptides in the skin and also in the gastrointestinal tract of adult Xenopus. We report here that Xp-like and XPF-like immuno-reactivities co-exist in the granular glands of the skin and specific granular cells in the lower esophagus and stomach. However, only Xp-like immunoreactivity, not XPF-like immunoreactivity, was detected in tall, thin cells of the duodenum and in club-shaped cells of the large intestine. The immunochemical co-localization of the two peptides in specific cells of the skin, lower esophagus and stomach suggests that the same gene is expressed in each of these cells, and that the precursor molecule undergoes similar post-translational processing. In contrast, the observation that certain cells of the duodenum and large intestine display only one peptide immunoreactivity suggests an alternative phenomenon, possibly involving selective peptide accumulation or expression of a different gene.

    Notes: Summary In the external layers of human small and large intestine macrophage-like cells were characterized by immunohistochemical, histochemical and electronmicroscopical methods. Using immunohistochemistry and a number of monoclonal antibodies, the presence and distribution of phenotypic subpopulations of macrophages were evaluated. In all locations macrophage-like cells were identified with antibody EBM11, which recognizes CD68 antigen, C3bi which recognizes CD11b, and partly with an antibody which recognizes protein 150,95 (CD11c). Macrophage-like cells in the external muscle layer were HLA-DR-positive (expressing the MHC class-II antigen), in contrast to macrophage-like cells in the subserosa and submucosa. Macrophage-like cells in the external muscle layer were mostly acid phosphatase-negative, and at the electron-microscopic level they were found to have features of macrophages: primary lysosomes, coated vesicles and pits. However, very few secondary lysosomes were present. Birbeck granules were not observed. It is concluded that in the external muscle layer of human small and large intestine numerous macrophages of a special type are present. It is discussed whether this cell type plays a role in gastrointestinal motility and/or has an immunological function.

    Notes: Summary Using traditional as well as whole-mount immunohistochemistry, we described the location of tyrosine hydroxylase-and dopamine beta hydroxylase-positive cells and fibers in the brain of the lizard Anolis carolinensis. Major catecholaminergic cell groups were in the ependyma in certain ventricular regions, alous coeruleus, anterior hypothalamic and lateral hypothalamic areas, and in the mesencephalic tegmental region, locus coeruleus, nucleus of the solitary tract, vagal motor nucleus, and rhombencephalic reticular formation. Major catecholaminergic fibers, tracts and varicosities included tuberohypophysial, mesolimbic, nigrostriatal, isthmocortical, medullohypothalamic, and coeruleospinal systems. Although the catecholaminergic systems in A. carolinensis are similar to those in the brains of other lizards studied, there are a few species differences. Our information about A. carolinensis will be used to help localize the hypothalamic asymmetry in catecholamine metabolism previously described in this lizard.

    Notes: Summary In an attempt to identify and localize the components of voltage sources involved in sensory transduction in insect sensilla, the thermo-/hygrosensitive sensilla of the moth Antheraea pernyi were probed with a polyclonal antiserum against Na+,K+-ATPase in cryofixed and freeze-substituted preparations. The antiserum recognized epitopes on the cytoplasmic membranes of the dendritic inner segments and somata of the sensory cells and also on the cytoplasmic membranes of glial cells surrounding the initial axon segments. The findings support the current concept that ion pumps in the cytoplasmic membranes of the dendritic inner segments and somata of the sensory cells contribute to the maintenance of the resting potential of the sensory cells and to the driving forces generating the receptor currents in response to stimulation of the sensillum. Morphological features and immunohistochemical characteristics of the region of the initial axon segment are also discussed with respect to the initiation of action potentials in these sensilla.

    Notes: Summary The purpose of this study was to examine the contention that stimulation-induced damage, resulting in degeneration with subsequent regeneration, plays a major role in the transformation of fibre type brought about by chronic electrical stimulation. Data from histological and histochemical sections of 9-day-stimulated rabbit fast-twitch muscles were analysed with multivariate statistical techniques. Fibre degeneration and regeneration varied non-systematically between sample areas at any given cross-sectional level. In the extensor digitorum longus muscle, but not in the tibialis anterior, there was more degeneration in proximal than in distal portions of the muscle. The extensor digitorum longus muscle consistently showed more degeneration than the tibialis anterior muscle. Degeneration was less extensive for an intermittent pattern of stimulation that delivered half the aggregate number of impulses of continuous stimulation. Degeneration and regeneration varied markedly between individual rabbits in each of the groups. Sections that revealed the most degeneration and regeneration also had more fibres that reacted positively with an anti-neonatal antibody. Rigorous analysis of different sources of variation has helped to explain apparent conflicts in the literature. The incidence of muscle fibre damage in the stimulated tibialis anterior muscle is low, showing that the contribution of degenerative-regenerative phenomena to fibre type conversion in this muscle is insignificant.

    Notes: Summary The distribution of calcitonin gene-related peptide-immunoreactive nerve fibers in the renal pelvis and ureter was examined by immunohistochemistry using whole-mount preparations and cryostat sections. The patterns of innervation were contrasted between the pelvis and ureter; the immunoreactive nerve fibers in the pelvis ran parallel to the long axis of each of the circular and longitudinal muscle layers, causing a lattice-like appearance of the nerve fibers. In the ureter, the immunoreactive fibers were accumulated in the subepithelial region and the longitudinal muscle. In both the pelvis and ureter, a portion of the nerve fibers of smaller caliber showed a swollen or beaded structure; they were located in the musculature and beneath the epithelium extending for considerable distances. Ligation of the ureter caused a marked decrease in the immunoreactive nerves in the pelvis and the proximal portion of the ureter, suggesting that the axonal flow in the calcitonin gene-related peptide-containing neurons of the ureter runs towards the pelvis.

    Notes: Summary Various antibodies and lectins were used in a histological study of the human renal tubule, particularly of the distal end of the thick limb of the loop of Henle. The thick limb, identified by antibody to Tamm-Horsfall protein, ended abruptly, either at the macula densa or at a variable distance after it. At this point there was an abrupt change in cell size. Confocal microscopy and other techniques showed that this point marked an abrupt beginning of tubular staining by the cytokeratin antibody PKK 2 and the lectin UEA 1, with an abrupt end of staining by the lectin DBA. Distal from this point, there were gradual changes in staining of the tubule by various reagents including other antibodies to cytokeratins. These structural findings suggest that there is a fundamental change in the tubule at the end of the thick limb. The abrupt end to the thick limb in man resembles that seen in the rat and the rabbit.

    Notes: Summary The distribution of fibronectin mRNA and fibronectin in adult human retina and epiretinal membranes was investigated by in situ hybridisation and immunohistochemical techniques. The cells in normal adult retina contained little or no fibronectin mRNA and the retina only showed fibronectin immunoreactivity in retinal vessels. The cells in detached neuroretina did not contain fibronectin message but the vitreoretinal interface of the detached retina exhibited variable fibronectin immunoreactivity. Retinal glia, retinal pigment epithelium and fibroblast-like cells in membranes at the vitreoretinal juncture (epiretinal membranes) showed variable labelling with the fibronectin mRNA probe and all the membranes immunostained for fibronectin. No difference could be detected between membrane cell types in the intensity of labelling with the mRNA probe or for fibronectin immunoreactivity. The results indicate that cells in situ in attached and detached adult human retina do not produce fibronectin. Although fibronectin at the vitreoretinal juncture in retinal detachment is probably partly derived from plasma fibronectin resulting from breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier, ectopic retinal cells produce fibronectin and contribute to the glycoprotein in epiretinal membranes.

    Notes: Summary Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) levels in cardiocytes and plasma were examined by using immunohistochemistry, electron microscopy, and radioimmunoassay in non-obese diabetic mice (NOD). Cardiocyte ANP mRNA expression was measured by the polymerase chain reaction method. ANP immunoreactivity in the auricular cardiocytes was more prominent in hyperglycemic mice (NOD-h) than in normoglycemic mice (NOD-n). Ultrastructural examination showed that auricular cardiocytes of the NOD-h group contained more cytoplasmic granules than cells of the NOD-n group. Ultrastructural morphometry indicated that the number of granules per auricular cardiocyte was significantly larger in the NOD-h group than in the NOD-n group. (P〈0.01), whereas the granule diameter was significantly smaller in the NOD-h group (P〈0.01). Radioimmunoassay showed that ANP levels in the NOD-h auricular cardiocytes were significantly higher than those in the NOD-n cardiocytes (P〈0.01); the opposite was true in plasma. Cardiocyte ANP mRNA expression was lower in the NOD-h group than in the NOD-n group.

    Notes: Summary The localization of luteinizing hormone beta (LHβ)-mRNA was studied by in situ hybridization in the pars tuberalis of sheep using a homologous sheep double-stranded 32P-or 35S-cDNA. The labelled cDNA probe detected one mRNA sequence in the pars tuberalis by Northern blot analysis; this sequence was similar to that detected in the pituitary. In situ, the labelling of LHβ-mRNA in the horizontal and sagittal tissue sections was found throughout the pars tuberalis. This labelling was prevented by adding an excess of cold probe or treating the sections by ribonuclease before in situ hybridization. Controls showed a labelling in the pars distalis, but not in the median eminence, hypothalamus, cerebral cortex and liver sections. Double labelling by using a specific LHβ-antiserum indicated that the labelling of LHβ-mRNA appeared more intense in LH-containing cells that were found only in the ventral part of the pars tuberalis. These results suggest that the entire pars tuberalis is able to produce the LHβ subunit, but that the level of translation greatly varies according to the location of the cells.

    Notes: Summary The normal human mammary gland undergoes a well defined sequence of histological changes in both epithelial and stromal compartments during the menstrual cycle. Studies in vitro have suggested that the extracellular matrix surrounding the individual cells plays a central role in modulating a wide variety of cellular events, including proliferation, differentiation and gene expression. We therefore investigated the distribution of a number of extracellular matrix molecules in the normal breast during the menstrual cycle. By use of indirect immunofluorescence, with specific antibodies, we demonstrated that laminin, heparan sulphate proteoglycan, type IV collagen, type V collagen, chondroitin sulphate and fibronectin undergo changes in distribution during the menstrual cycle, whereas collagen types I, III, VI and VII remain unchanged. These changes were most marked in the basement membrane, sub-basement membrane zone and delimiting layer of fibroblasts surrounding the ductules where basement membrane markers such as laminin, heparan sulphate proteoglycan, and type IV and V collagens appear greatly reduced during the mid-cycle period (days 8 to 22). These results suggest that some extracellular matrix molecules may act as medittors in the hormonal control of the mammary gland, whereas others may have a predominantly structural role.

    Notes: Summary Normal epithelial cell differentiation is charactezied by the production of distinct cytokeratin proteins. It is well known that epithelia of several organs show squamous metaplasia in a vitamin A-deficient status. It is not yet known whether these histological changes are concomitant with a change in cytokeratin expression. Therefore, 3-week-old female rats (BN/BiRij) were fed a vitamin A-deficient diet for 8 weeks. The cytokcratin expression in epithelia of various organs was monitored immunohistochemically during the induction of vitamin A deficiency. Therefore, monoclonal antibodies specific for human cytokeratin 4, 5, 5+8, 7, 10, 14, 18 and 19 were used. In a normal vitamin A status, the distributional pattern for the different cytokeratins in rats was similar to that reported for human tissue. No change in cytokeratin expression was seen in trachea, skin, liver and colon at any time point studied. Squamous metaplasia in urinary bladder and salivary glands was observed after six weeks on the vitamin A-deficient diet. This was concomitant with a substitution of cytokeratins 4, 5+8, 7, 18 and 19 by cytokeratin 10. The latter cytokeratin is specific for keratinzed squamous epithelium. A change in cytokeratin expression was observed in bladder, ureter, kidney, salivary glands, uterus and conjunctiva before histological alterations appeared. In conclusion, the changes in cytokeratin expression observed under vitamin A deficiency in epithelia in vivo are in agreement with those described in other studies for epithelial cells in vitro. The changes in cytokeratin expression and the subsequent differentiation into squamous cells occurs in basal cells of the bladder but not in transitional cells. Furthermore, histological alterations are preceded by changes in cytokeratin expression indicating that vitamin A status controls cytokeratin expression in vivo.

    Notes: Summary Inbred animals (Lewis rats) were used to investigate the regeneration of autologously implanted splenic tissue at intra-omental and subcutaneous sites. Quantitative immunohistology with monoclonal antibodies against lymphocytes and macrophages was performed to analyse the cell density of red pulp (RP), periarteriolar lymphoid sheath (PALS), marginal zone (MZ) and follicle, 7–180 days after transplantation. Antigenic, allogeneic and mitogenic stimulation and Northern blotting were also performed. Transplant groups differed from spleen only in the reduced size of PALS; however, quantitative analysis demonstrated subtle differences between spleen and transplants. The cell density of B-cells and ED-1+ macrophages was reduced in the RP, Tsupp/cyt-cells were decreased and B-cells increased in PALS, and B-cells and Thelper-cells reduced in the MZ. No differences could be detected between the transplant groups. Flow-cytometric analysis of cell suspensions from spleen and transplants revealed a reduction of T-cells (OX-19+), MHC-I and transferrin-receptor-bearing cells in both transplant groups, and a decrease in the number of Thelper-cells and ED-3+ macrophages in subcutaneous transplants. Both transplant groups were defective regarding the allogeneic and pokeweed mitogen response. Aberration of the lipopolysaccharide response was restricted to subcutaneous transplants, which additionally showed abnormal expression of interferon-gamma, interleukin-5 and interleukin-6 mRNA. Thus, subtle alterations of the newly developed microenvironment and/or lymphocyte-homing may influence the regeneration of splenic tissue; the implantation site may represent an important parameter in functional reorganisation.

    Notes: Summary The ontogeny of substance P, CGRP (calcitonin gene-related peptide), and VIP (vasoactive intestinal polypeptide) containing nerve fibers in the carotid labyrinth of the bullfrog, Rana catesbeiana, was examined by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method. The time of appearance of these three peptides was different for each. First, CGRP fibers appeared in the wall of the carotid arch and external carotid arteries, and in a thin septum between these two arteries at an early stage of larval development (stage III). At stage V, substance P immunoreactive fibers appeared, and VIP fibers were detected at the early metamorphic stage (stage XXII). Up to the completion of metamorphosis, the number of these fibers remained low. From 1 to 5 weeks after metamorphosis, substance P, CGRP, and VIP fibers increased in number to varying degrees. By 8 weeks after metamorphosis, the distribution and abundance of these fibers closely resembled those of the adults. Some CGRP and VIP immunoreactive glomus cells were found at the stages immediately before and after the completion of metamorphosis. These findings suggest that substance P, CGRP, and VIP fibers during larval development and metamorphosis may be nonfunctional, and start to participate in vascular regulation only after metamorphosis. The transient CGRP and VIP in some glomus cells may be important for the development of the labyrinth, or may take part in vascular regulation through the close apposition of the glomus and smooth muscle cells (g-s connection).

    Notes: Summary The distribution of natriuretic peptide immunoreactivity was determined in the heart and brain of the gulf toadfish Opsanus beta using the avidin-biotin peroxidase technique. Four antisera were used: the first raised against porcine brain natriuretic peptide which cross-reacts with atrial natriuretic and C-type natriuretic peptides (termed natriuretic peptide-like immunoreactivity); the second raised against porcine brain natriuretic peptide which cross-reacts with C-type natriuretic peptide but not with atrial natriuretic peptide (termed porcine brain natriuretic peptide-like immunoreactivity); the third raised against rat atrial natriuretic peptide; and the fourth raised against eel atrial natriuretic peptide. Natriuretic peptide- and porcine brain natriuretic peptide-like immunoreactivity was observed in all cardiac muscle cells of the atrium. In the ventricle, natriuretic peptide-like immunoreactivity was found in all cardiac muscle cells, however porcine brain natriuretic peptidelike immunoreactivity was confined to muscle cells adjacent to the epicardium. There was no discernible difference in the distribution of natriuretic peptide-like immunoreactivity and porcine brain natriuretic peptide-like immunoreactivity in the brain. Immunoreactive perikarya were observed only in the preoptic region of the diencephalon, and many immunoreactive fibres were found in the telencephalon, preoptic area, and rostral hypothalamus, lateral to the thalamic region. There was no immunoreactivity in any region of the hypophysis. A pair of distinct immunoreactive fibre tracts ran caudally from the preoptic area to the thalamic region, from which fibres extended to the posterior commissure, area praetectalis, dorsolateral regions of the midbrain tegmentum, and tectum. Many immunoreactive fibres were present in the rostral regions of the inferior lobes of the hypothalamus and in the dorsolateral and ventrolateral aspects of the rhombencephalon. No immunoreactivity was observed in the heart and brain using rat atrial natriuretic and eel natriuretic peptide antisera. Although the chemical structure of natriuretic peptides in the heart and brain of toadfish is unknown, these observations show that a component of the natriuretic peptide complement is similar to porcine brain natriuretic and/or porcine C-type natriuretic peptides. The presence of natriuretic peptides in the brain suggests that they could be important neuromodulators and/or neurotransmitters.

    Notes: Summary Serial sections of resting porcine endometrium were analyzed with the monoclonal antibody 13H2 using goat antimouse IgG/5 nm gold as secondary reagent or with either polyclonal antibodies from goat #402 or the rat monoclonal antibody H222, both in combination with protein G/12 nm gold. A modestly higher labelling of nuclei than of cytoplasm was seen only with the monoclonal antibody H222. Polyclonal #402 and monoclonal 13H2 showed fewer attachments over nuclear than over cytoplasmic areas. The highest densities of attachment and of predominantly cytoplasmic labelling were obtained with the monoclonal antibody 13H2. The results confirm the earlier assumption of a restricted accessiblity of estradiol receptor in the cytoplasm of resting cells for immunoreagents.

    Notes: Summary We attempted to identify the nature and origin of the pigment produced by the marine worm Nereis diversicolor in order to isolate, in inert brown capsules, foreign objects introduced into its body cavity. This brown pigment, characterized by cytochemical techniques, could be a melanin. The activity of the enzyme phenoloxidase responsible for melanin biosynthesis was detected by enzyme cytochemistry techniques in vacuoles and the Golgi apparatus of coelomocytes activated by the presence of foreign bodies. Morphological techniques combined with a monoclonal immunological probe enabled us to establish that the “G2” granulocytes contain both the precursor of the pigment in dense bodies and the capacity for phenoloxidase synthesis when activated to encapsulate foreign bodies. The “G2” granulocyte may therefore be compared to a melanocyte in which melanin is not stored as in mammals, but immediately extruded following synthesis in the form of a thick fluid.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wurden 53 vitale Hautwunden mit einem Wundalter von wenigen Sekunden/Minuten
    Notes: Summary We analyzed the distribution of fibronectin in routinely embedded tissue specimens from 53 skin wounds and 6 postmortem wounds. In postmortem wounds a faint but focal positive staining was exclusively found at the margin of the specimens which dit not extend into the adjacent stroma. Vital wounds were classified into 3 groups. The first comprising lesions with wound ages ranging from a few seconds to 30 min, the second comprising those with wound ages upt to 3 weeks, and the third group with lesions more than 3 weeks old. Ten out of 17 lesions with a wound age up to 30 min showed a clear positive reaction within the wound area. Three specimens in this group were completely negative, while in 4 additional cases the result was not significantly different from postmortem lesions. These 7 cases were characterized by acute death with extremely short survival times (only seconds). In wounds up to 3 weeks old fibronectin formed a distinct network containing an increasing number of inflammatory cells corresponding to the wound age. In 2 cases with a survival time of 17 days and in all wounds older than 3 weeks fibronectin was restricted to the surface of fibroblasts and to parallel arranged fibers in the granulation tissue without any network structures. We present evidence that fibronectin is a useful marker for vital wounds with a survival time of more than a few minutes. Fibronectin appears before neutrophilic granulocytes migrate into the wound area. Since a faint positive fibronectin staining is seen in postmortem lesions and bleedings, we propose that only those wounds which show strong positive fibronectin staining also extending into the adjacent stroma should be regarded as vital.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Lokalisation (and Verteilung) der Antigene des ABH-Komplexes im Bereich der inneren Geschlechtsorgane des Mannes wurde mittels monoklonaler Antikörper unter Benutzung einer Avidin-Biotin Technik untersucht. Dabei konnten positive Reaktionen im Hoden und im Ductus epididymidis lediglich an Erythrozyten und Endothelzellen beobachtet werden. Die Expression von ABH-Antigenen in den Ductuli efferentes testis, im Ductus epididymidis, in den Samenbläschen und der Prostata wird offensichtlich komplex durch H-, Se-, Le- und X-Gene kodiert. Die Resultate der vorliegenden Untersuchungen zeigen, daß die ABH-Antigene der Spermienoberfläche offensichtlich aus der Samenflüssigkeit stammen und die ABO-, H-, Se-, Le-und X-Gene gewebsabhängig unterschiedlich exprimiert werden.
    Notes: Summary The localization of ABH related antigens in human male reproductive tract was examined using monoclonal antibodies and an avidin biotin complex method. No positive reaction with blood group antibodies on spermatozoa was observed in testis and ductus epididymidis apart from erythrocytes and endothelial cells. The expression of ABH and ABH related antigens in ductuli efferentes testis, ductus epididymidis, seminal vesicle and prostate was complexly coded by a combination of H, Se, Le and X genes. The results obtained in this study indicate that the ABH antigens detected on spermatozoa of seminal stains are coating antigens and not inherent to the cell membrane, and the ABO, H, Se, Le and X genes are subjected to a tissue-dependent differential expression.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfasssung Es wurden 62 menschliche Hautwunden (Operationsnähte, chirurgisch versorgte Stich-und Riß-Quetsch-Wunden) untersucht. Neben Kollagen IV wurde in 27 Fällen zusätzlich Kollagen VII immunhistochemisch dargestellt. Es zeigte sich hierbei eine weitgehende Co-Verteilung von Kollagen IV und VII im Wundgebiet ohne daß relevante wundaltersabhängige Unterschiede bezüglich der Lokalisation im Bereich des Epithel-Defektes feststellbar waren. Basalmembran-Fragmente traten erstmals in 4 Tage alten Hautwunden auf. Frühestens 8 Tage nach Verletzung fanden wir eine komplette epidermale Basalmembran. Dies war in allen Präparaten mit einem Wundalter über 21 Tagen der Fall. Der Zeitraum zwischen dem B. und 21. Tag nach Wundsetzung war charakterisiert durch eine erhebliche Variabilität der Befunde mit teils kompletter, teils fragmentiert vorliegender, teils auch noch vollständig fehlender Basalmembran im Defekt-Bereich.
    Notes: Summary In 62 human skin wounds (surgical wounds, stab wounds and lacerations after surgical treatment) we analyzed the immunohistochemical localization of collagen IV in the epithelial basement membrane. In 27 of these wounds the distribution of collagen VII, which represents a specific component of the basement membrane of stratified epithelia, was also analyzed. We were able to demonstrate a virtually identical co-distribution of both collagen IV and VII in the wound area with no significant time-dependent differences in the appearance of both collagen types. Fragments of the epithelial basement membrane could be detected in the wound area from as early as 4 days after wounding and after 8 days a complete restitution of the epithelial basement membrane was observed. In all cases with a wound age of more than 21 days the basement membrane was completely reformed over the former lesional area. The period between 8 and 21 days after wounding was characterized by a wide variability ranging from complete restitution to deposition of basement membrane fragments or total lack of the epidermal basement membrane.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wurden 66 menschliche Hautwunden mit einem Wundalter zwischen 20 Stunden und 7 Monaten sowie komplikationsloser Wundheilung ausgewertet. Nach immunhistochemischer Darstellung von alpha-Aktin und Desmin wurde das zeitabhängige Auftreten positiv reagierender Myofibroblasten im Wundgebiet untersucht. Es zeigte sich hierbei, daß in Hautwunden mit einem Wundalter unter 5 Tagen keine positiv anfärbbaren Zellen zu beobachten waren. In 57% (25 von 44 Fällen) der Hautverletzungen, die zwischen 5 und 31 Tagen überlebt worden waren, fanden sich im Granulationsgewebe alpha-Aktin haltige Myofibroblasten. Besonders zahlreiche, positiv reagierende Zellen traten zwischen ca. 16 bis 31 Tagen nach Wundsetzung auf, konnten jedoch auch bereits in Hautwunden jüngeren Alters beobachtet werden. In 2 von 7 Fällen mit einem Wundalter zwischen 1 und 7 Monaten (29%) liesen sich ebenfalls alpha-Aktin positive Myofibroblasten im Wundgebiet nachweisen. Desmin-haltige Myofibroblasten konnten nicht beobachtet werden. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß alpha-Aktin positive Myofibroblasten bereits mit Ausbildung typischen Granulationsgewebes ab ca. dem 5. Tag nach Verletzung im Wundgebiet auftreten. Der Nachweis positiv reagierender Zellen im Wundgebiet läßt jedoch aufgrund der Variabilität der Befunde keine weitere Differenzierung des Wundalters zu. Da alpha-Aktin-positive Myofibroblasten im Untersuchungsgut auch noch in einer Hautwunde mit einem Alter von 2 Monaten und 13 Tagen beobachtet werden konnten, ist die im Tierexperiment gefundene maximale Nachweisbarkeitsdauer von 30 Tagen auf das Granulationsgewebe menschlicher Hautwunden nicht übertragbar.
    Notes: Summary Human skin wounds (66) inflicted between 20 h and 7 months prior to biopsy were studied. In order to identify the type of cellular differentiation of the fibroblastic cells in the granulation tissue, alpha-smooth muscle actin and desmin were immunohistochemically localized. The value of any presumed time-dependent appearance and/or disappearance of positively stained cells was tested for the estimation of wound age. In skin specimens with a wound age less than 5 days (n =15) no typical granulation tissue had developed and no alpha-actin-positive myofibroblasts could be detected. The first appearance of positively reacting myofibroblasts was noted in a 5-day-old wound. In 57% of the lesions with a wound age between 5 and 31 days (25 out of 44 cases) typical granulation tissue formation was present and myofibroblasts with positive reaction for alpha-smooth muscle actin could be identified. Numerous positively reacting cells could generally be found in wounds aged between 16 and 31 days, but also in wounds less than 16 days old. In 29% of the cases with a wound age of more than 31 days (2 out of 7 cases) alpha-sma-positive myofibroblasts also occured. Fibroblastic cells positive for desmin could not be seen at all in our series. Our results demonstrate the appearance of alpha-sma-positive myofibroblasts with the initial formation of typical granulation tissue in human skin lesions as early as approximately 5 days after wounding. In contrast to recent experimental results these cells remained detectable in wounds aged more than 2 months in some cases. The immunohistochemical detection of actin-positive cells, therefore, demonstrates whether an unknown skin wound is aged approximately 5 days or more. Even though a time-dependent decrease of myofibroblasts in human granulation tissue after 31 days in human wounds seems probable, the extended presence (up to about 2 months) of these cells allows no further exact age determination of older wounds.

    Notes: Summary To examine the role of T-cell subsets in immune-mediated otitis media with effusion induced by keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH), we used immuno-histochemical methods to investigate the kinetics of immunocytes of the middle ear (ME) and eustachian tube (ET) in healthy BALB/c mice. Antibodies against murine macrophages and granulocytes (anti-Mac-1), helper T cells (anti-Lyt-1), suppressor T cells (anti-Lyt-2), immunoglobulins (anti-IgG, -IgM, -IgA), secretory component (SC) and KLH were used. The ME exhibited a substantial immune response, whereas the response of the ET was minor and was associated with a secondary ME immune response. After KLH challenge, an effusion with an extensive infiltration of inflammatory cells (Mac-1, IgG+ and IgM+ cells) was observed at days 1 and 3 in the ME cavity and rapidly disappeared by day 7. Within the ME mucosa, a large number of cells was observed at days 1 and 3, peaking on day 7 when a submucosal lymphoid infiltration was detected. In the immune response of the ME mucosa, Mac-1 cells were the predominant cell type followed by helper T cells, IgG+ cells, IgA+ cells and then IgM+ cells. Suppressor T cells were rarely detected after KLH challenge. SC was present within ME epithelial cells from days 1 to 14. From these findings, we conclude (1) that the majority of infiltrating cells in the ME cavity originate from circulating blood; (2) that the ME mucosa has an excellent capacity to mount a strong immune response, including mucosal immunity, through the accumulation of immunocytes for antigen processing and antibody production; (3) that elimination of antigen appears to be the most important factor for returning the immune response to a quiescent state.

    Notes: Summary The sympathetic innervation of the canine larynx was investigated using tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunohistochemistry. Many tyrosine hydroxylase immunoreactive (TH-IR) nerve fibers were observed around arteries and arterioles in the laryngeal mucosa and intrinsic laryngeal muscles. In the glandular region, TH-IR fibers were also found, with some of these fibers terminating around the basement membranes of the glandular cells. The quantity of TH-IR fibers in the mucosa differed among regions of the larynx. Many of these fibers could be found in the laryngeal surface of the epiglottis as well as the posterior glottis. These findings suggest that TH-IR fibers may directly innervate muscles in the intrinsic larynx.

    Notes: Summary Immunohistochemistry was used to investigate the distribution pattern of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) nerve fibers in the laryngeal mucosa, glands and intrinsic muscles of the dog. CGRP immunoreactive nerve fibers were found more frequently than substance P immunoreative nerve fibers in every region of the larynx. In the epithelia, CGRP nerve fibers were mainly found in the epiglottis, arytenoid region and subglottis. Many taste buds were observed in the arytenoid region and were densely innervated by the CGRP nerve fibers. In the lamina propria, the plexus of CGRP nerve fibers was present, with some of these fibers associated with blood vessels. Laryngeal glands were also innervated by a few CGRP nerve fibers. In the intrinsic laryngeal muscles, abundant immunoreactivity was observed and many motor end-plate-like structures were found with CGRP immunoreactivity. These findings strongly suggest that CGRP plays an important role in all of the sensory, motor and autonomic nervous systems of the larynx.

In practice, however, the occurrence of additional types of cell changes in other kinds of olfactory disorders and findings with immunohistochemical techniques have led us to re-evaluate our previous classification. In the present study, changes in olfactory epithelia from ten patients with various kinds of olfactory disorders are discussed and a revised classification is proposed. Microvillar and differentiating cells were also evaluated in the epithelium studied.

    Notes: Summary Since a heavy cellular infiltrate is seen in the stroma of most aural cholesteatomas, we attempted to characterize this cell population in more detail using monocyte/macrophage-specific monoclonal antibodies. KiM1+ (specific for CD 11c antigen, the 150kDa α-chain of a leukocyte integrin), and KiM6+ phagocytes were present in two- or fourfold higher numbers in the stroma of the six excised cholesteatomas than in the control tissues. Since the stroma of the cholesteatoma is devoid of microvessles, the typical perivascular localization of dermal macrophages was not seen in the cholesteatomas studied. The density of the macrophages in the normal ear skin was much higher in the upper dermis than in the lower dermis. In the cholesteatomatous specimens, the phagocytes were evenly scattered within the connective tissue and the cellular infiltrate. In contrast to diseased skin, no Mac 387+ macrophages were detected in the cholesteatomas. A great number of phagocytic cells closely resembling dermal macrophages was found in the stroma of the cholesteatomas and probably contributes to an active autoimmune process.

    Notes: Summary The expression of the receptor for epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been determined on oral squamous cell carcinomas. Immunoreactive receptor was localized using a monoclonal anti-EGF-receptor antibody which reacts with sequences in the external domain of the receptor. Frozen sections were studied from 40 patients with squamous cell carcinomas. In 16 sections from the patients with the squamous cell carcinomas, normal differentiated oral mucosa was included and in 7 of these the patients had received preoperative radiotherapy. Sections from 6 other patients with squamous cell carcinoma contained dysplastic epithelia. EGF-receptor-positive cells were present in the basal cell layer on normal differentiated oral mucosa. In sections from patients receiving preoperative radiotherapy the EGF-receptor-positive cells were also found in the spinous cells. In dysplastic epithelia nearly all cells stained for the receptor. The distribution and staining intensity of the EGF receptor varied in the oral squamous cell carcinomas, 36 were positive. The staining pattern in the carcinomas obtained from patients receiving preoperative radiotherapy was not altered qualitatively. Nearly all poorly differentiated cells were stained, but when the tumor was moderately to well differentiated a reduction in the extent of staining in certain areas was seen, paralleling the findings observed in the differentiated upper layers of the normal oral mucosa. This was most pronounced for the epithelial pearls, where the EGF-receptor-positive cells were localized to the undifferentiated cells in the periphery. The results of the present investigation confirm the presence of the EGF receptor on undifferentiated cells, with the extent of the staining reaction on oral squamous cell carcinomas varying inversely with cellular differentiation.

    Notes: Summary The recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) consists of various motor, sensory and autonomic nerve fibers, although it has not been established whether different neuronal types exhibit a similar ability to regenerate. To address this question, freezing was used to injure the cat RLN fibers and the presence or absence of immunoreactivity for neuropeptides or transmitter-synthesizing enzymes was then examined as a marker to classify the fibers. In the control RLN, calcitonin gene-related peptide-immunoreactive (CGRP-IR) fibers were the highest in number and were distributed throughout the nerve fascicles. The number of substance P-immunoreactive (SP-IR) fibers was about 40% that of CGRP-IR fibers, while a portion of CGRP-IR fibers was found to contain SP immunoreactivity. Relatively low numbers of tyrosine hydroxylase-immunoreactive (TH-IR) and neuropeptide Y (NPY-IR) nerve fibers were seen which tended to form clusters. The distribution pattern of NPY-IR fibers was very similar to that of TH-IR fibers. In the regenerating RLN 1 week after the freezing injury, the fastest growing axons were CGRP-IR, while the regenerating rates of SP-IR, TH-IR and NPY-IR fibers were slower than that of CGRP-IR fibers. These results suggest that the ability for neurite regeneration varies among neuron types and that CGRP-IR fibers possess the most rapid ability to regenerate.

    Notes: The calculated molecular surfaces for some Sandalwood-odor molecules and structurally similar inactive compounds were compared with the calculated mean surface obtained from five Sandalwood odorants included in the set, and their individual agreement and deviations were estimated. Especially the investigation of selected parts of the surfaces seems very promising in finding structure subunits which might be important for an association to a possible receptor site.

    Notes: The kinetics of pyridine exchange on trans-[MO2(py)4]+ have been followed by 1H-NMR in CD3NO2 for M = Re, Tc: k298S-1 = (5.5 ± 0.1) × 10-6, 0.04 ± 0.02; ΔH≠/kJmol-1 = 111 ± 3, 101 ± 9; ΔS≠/JK-1mol-1 = +28 ± 10, +68 ± 35. For the Rev complex, pyridine and oxygen exchanges have been measured simultaneously by 1H- and 17O-NMR in deuterated water: k298/s-1 = (8.6 ± 0.2) × 10-6 (py), (14.5 ± 0.3) × 10-6 (oxygen); ΔH≠/kJmol-1 = 111 ± 1, 91 ± 1; ΔS /JK-1mol-1 = +32 ± 3, -32 ± 4. For both complexes, the rate law for pyridine exchange is first-order in complex and zero-order in pyridine; together with the activation parameter values, and the fact that the rate does not depend significantly on the nature of the solvent, this strongly implies the operation of a dissociative mechanism. The ratio of pyridine exchange rates for the Tc and Re complexes at room temperature is ca. 8000. The consequences of these observations for radiopharmaceutical synthesis are discussed.

Wintner, Haverford College, Haverford, PA 19041-1392; academic guest, ETH, March and June/July, 1991.Chemical rationalization of the structure of a biomolecule can be sought through consideration of two criteria: first, the relationship between the structure and its biological function; and second, the structure's potential for constitutional self assembly. The latter criterion convers the judgment, by chemical reasoning, of the chance of its preformation, that is, a synthetic event which must have been undergone by any molecular structure in order to have been selected (or to have selected itself) to become a biomolecule. One way to further the task of rationalizing a biomolecule's structure by experimental means is the design, synthesis, and study of structural alternatives which might have become biomolecules on the basis of either criterion, but which do not, in fact, appear in Nature today.In the formation of sugar phosphates from glycolaldehyde phosphate under basic conditions, straightforward and selective formation of rac-hexose 2,4,6-triphosphates is observed in the absence of formaldehyde, while rac-pentose 2,4-diphosphates are dominant, when (0.5 equiv.) formaldehyde is present [1]. This and other observations indicate that hexose sugars should be regarded to have had a chance of preformation comparable with that of pentose sugars. Why, then, did Nature choose pentoses and not hexoses as the sugar building blocks of nucleic acids? The reason must be functional; it must be the case that pentose nucleic acids are biologically superior to potential hexose alternatives. To the extent that biological function is a consequence of molecular structure and reactivity, the origin of this superiority should be decipherable through chemical experiment, that is, through synthesis of hexose nucleic acids, systematic study of their chemical properties, and comparison of these properties with those of their natural counterparts. This has been the object of the present investigation, initiated in 1986. The paper introduces a series of papers which will describe the results of a model study, namely, the synthesis, pairing properties and structure of homo-DNA oligonucleotides.

    Notes: From a MeOH extra of Psiadia trinervia, seven phenolic compounds were isolated by gel filtration and reversed-phase chromatography. Six of them are known compounds, namely 3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (2), 3,5-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (3), caffeic acid, and three 3-methoxyflavonoids. Compound 1 is a 3,4-di-O-caffeoyl derviative of (1S,3R,4R,5R)-1,3,4, 5-tetrahydroxycyclohexanecarboxylic acid, a novel steroisomer of (-)-quinic acid. Following hydrolytic treatment of the MeOH extract, ethyl 3-O-caffeoylquinate (4), ethyl 3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinate (5), and ethyl 3,5-O-caffeoylquinate (6) were isolated. The latter three compounds are artifacts. The configuration of 1-3 was established by NMR and CD (exciton chirality method).

    Notes: Radical anions of ten monocyclic and bicyclic azoalkanes containing the azo group in (Z)-conformation, have been fully characterized by their hyperfine data with the use of ESR, ENDOR, and general-TRIPLE-resonance spectroscopy. These azoalkanes are represented by 3,3,5,5-tetramethyl-1-pyrazline (1), 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene (4), and 2,3-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]oct-2-ene (9), as well as by their derivatives 2, 3, 5-8, and 10. For all radical anions \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$1^{- \atop \dot{}}-10^{- \atop \dot{}}$\end{document}, the 14N-coupling constant, aN, is in the range of +0.83 to +0.97 mT; this finding indicates that the spin population is essentially restricted to the π system of the azo group. The 14N-hyperfine anisotropy largely affects the width of ESR lines, particularly at low temperatures. Substantial coupling constants of 7Li-, 23K-, and 133Cs-nuclei point to a close association of the radical anions with their alkakimetal counterions. With the exception of 39K, these nuclei give rise to readily observable ENDOR signals which appear along with those stemming from protons. The prominent hyperfine features of \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$1^{- \atop \dot{}}-10^{- \atop \dot{}}$\end{document} are discussed.

    Notes: The radical mono-ions of three azoalkanes in which the azo group is connected to the polycyclic alkane moieties at the bridgehead C-atoms, i.e. 1,1′-azonorbornane (1), 1,1′-azotwistane (2), and 1,1′-azobicyclo[3.2.1]octane (3), were studied in fluid solution by ESR spectroscopy. According to the ESR parameters and MO models, the radical cations of 1-3 should be considered as σ radicals, whereas the corresponding radical anions are π radicals. INDO calculations point to a a remarkable dependence of the 14N-coupling constants on the geometry at the N-atoms in the radical cations of aliphatic azo compounds.

    Notes: The use of α,α,α′,α′ -tetraaryl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dimethanols ( = TADDOLs;1) as chiral NMR shift reagents (1H, 13C, 19F) is described. In many cases, the ratio of enantiomeric alcohols and amines can be determined under standard conditions of measurement (CDCl3 as solvent, room temperature). The preparation and use of a new type of TADDOL, the tetrakis(dimethylamino) derivative 1d, is described. Menthol, octan-2-ol, and oct-1-yn-3-ol are partially resolved by crystallization of clathrates with 1c and 1d.

    Notes: Reactions of monosubstituted alkenes RCH = CH2 and [Re(η5-C5H5)(CH2Cl2) (NO)(PPh3)]+BF4- give complexes ([Re(η5-C5H5))(CH2=CHR)(NO) (PPh3)]+BF4- (1a-g) in 63-99% yields as mixtures of (RS,SR)- and (RR,SS)-diastereoisomers (1a (R = Me), 66:34; 1b (R = Pr), 63:37; 1c (R = PhCH2), 70:30; 1d (R = Ph), 75:25; 1e (R = i-Pr), 64:36; 1f (R = t-Bu), 84:16; 1g (R = Me3Si), 69:31; Scheme 2). These differ in the C=C enantioface bound to the chiral Re fragment. In most cases, the analogous reactions of RCH=CH2 and [Re(η5-C5H5) (C6H5Cl)(NO)(PPh3)]+ BF4+ give comparable results. When 1a-e, g are heated in PhCl at 95-100°, equilibration to 96:4, 97:3, 97:3, 90:10, 〉 99:〈 1, and 〉 99:〈 1 (RS,SR)/(RR,SS) mixtures occurs (79-99% recoveries; Tables 1 and 2). Thus, thermodynamic enantioface-binding selectivities are much higher than kinetic binding selectivities. This phenomenon is analyzed in detail. A crystal structure of (RS,SR)-1e (monoclinic, P21/c, a = 10.256(1) Å. b = 17.191(1) Å, c = 16.191(1) Å, β = 101.04(1)°, Z = 4) shows that the Re-C(1)-C(2) plane (see Fig.2) is nearly coincident with the Re-P bond (angle 15°), and that the i-Pr group is ‘syn’ to the nitrosyl ligand.

    Notes: A synthetically useful C—C bond formation involving the photochemical addition of quinoxaline-2(1H)-thiones to alkenes is described. Irradiation of the quinoxaline-2(1H)-thiones 1-4 in the presence of the alkenes 7 gave the 2-(2′-mercaptoalkyl)quinoxalines 8-11 in moderate-to-good yields via ring cleavage of an intermediate aminothietane with aromatization of the quinoxaline ring. The latter was formed by [2+2] photocycloaddition of the C=S bond of the quinoxaline-2(1H)-thione and the C=C bond of the alkene.

    Notes: Perylene quinone compounds of natural and syntheitc origin have been investigated for their quantum efficiency of singlet-oxygen production (ΦΔ). The results may be interpreted by a qualitative relation between ΦΔ and the planarity of the sensitizer molecules, highest values (0.8-0.9) being observed where planarity is favoring tautomeric structures. On the other hand, derivatives exhibiting non-planar quinoid structures show lower ΦΔ, and methylated derivatives react photochemically.

    Notes: Multi-O4-phospho-L-tyrosine-containing peptides can be synthesized by the global as well as the buildingblock approach. Thus, we prepared by both strategies the triphosphorylated and the three regioisomeric diphosphorylated insulin-receptor-(1142-1153)-dodecapeptide derivatives 7 and 4-6, respectively, of the parent Thr-Arg-Asp-Ile-Tyr-Glu-Thr-Asp-Tyr-Tyr-Arg-Lys (3). These phosphorylated peptides are valuable tools to study the regioselectivity of dephosphorylation by phosphatases.

    Notes: Michael addition of N-nitroacetyl derivatives 1 of proline esters using KF under phase-transfer catalysis resulted in the formation of adducts 3-9 with chemical yields ranging from 40-90% (Scheme). Stereoselectivity of up to 51% was obtained on addition of benzyl N-(nitroacetyl)-L-prolinate (1a). The absolute configuration at the newly created chiral centre was established in the case of 9 by carrying out a reductive acylation and comparing the product 10 with an authentic sample of ethyl N-(O5-ethyl N2-acetyl-L-glutam-1-yl)-L-prolinate (L, L-10).

Both the isotopomeric olefins and the epoxides are detected separately by 1H-NMR at 400 MHz. Epoxidation of (Z)-3 with [RhICl(PPh3)3]/cumene hydroperoxide resulted in a 1: 1 mixture of (Z)- and (E)-4, while reaction of (Z)-3 with [FeIII(tpp)]Cl/PhIO gave only (Z)-4 (tpp = tetraphenylporphyrin).

    Notes: Synthesis of (6R, all-E)-Neoxanthin and Related Allenic CarotenoidsWe present the first synthesis of enantiomerically pure neoxanthin (1) by a Wittig-Horner condensation between the ylide from the novel diethyl 12′-apo-15, 15′-didehydroviolaxanthin-12′-phosphonate (35) and the allenic C15-aldehyde 31 (Scheme 4) via the crystalline 15, 15′-didehydroneoxanthin (36; 70% yield). After partial hydrogenation of the triple bond of 36 and isomerisation of the (15Z)-intermediate 37, neoxanthin (1) was obtained in good yield. Similar syntheses gave (15Z, 9′Z)-neoxanthin (45; Scheme 5) and (9Z)-15, 15′-didehydroneoxanthin (47; Scheme 6). Comparison of the physical data of synthetic 1 with those of a freshly isolated sample of neoxanthin from the flowers of Trollius europaeus confirmed their identity. The unusually low melting point of 1 is caused by a very easy thermal isomerisation into a mixture of the neochromes 4 and 5 (Scheme 1). Such a thermal rearrangement is not observed with 15, 15′-didehydroneoxanthin (36). To explain this, we assume a zwitterionic excited state of the allenic group that induces the rearrangement of the violaxanthin end group into the furanoid epoxide (Scheme 7).

The molecular structure of 5a is determined by X-ray crystal-structure analysis. Under more rigorous conditions, phenyl-substituted derivatives 5b and 8b are obtained from 1 and 6, respectively, with 3,6-diphenyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazine. Compounds 1 and 6 are less reactive dienophiles than other strained cyclic olefins as shown by kinetic measurements.

    Notes: Tris(trimethylsilyl)silane (2) is an efficient hydrosilylating agent of 1,6-dienes 1 operating via a free-radical chain mechanism. The intermediate alkyl radical 3 attacks the second olefinic bond of the diene 1 and forms cyclopentylalkyl radical 4. Using a low concentration of the hydrogen donor 2, a radical substitution reaction at the Si-center of cis-4 occurs and yields the bicyclic silane 6. The rate of this homolytic substitution at the Si-atom is 2.4 · 105 s-1 (80°).

The described transposition is complementary to existing methods whose application is often prohibited by the structural requirements of the substrate. The now easily accessible α-ionones of desired absolute configuration are useful as chiral building blocks for terpenoid synthesis.

    Notes: Catalytic double osmylation is described for a series of cyclohexadienes in acetone/H2O in the presence of the co-oxidant N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMO). The formation of polyols occurred stereospecifically with cyclohexadienes 3,7, and 11a, leading thereby to tetrols 5a, and 9a and to allo-inositol (14a), respectively. To the contrary, trans-cyclohexadiene-diol 15a gave a mixture of the stereoisomeric inositols 18a (epi), 19a (neo), and 20a (chiro). High-field NMR let to clearcut conformational analyses of the polyhydroxylated derivatives.

    Notes: Esculetin (1) and the novel compounds 5-chloroesculetin (5) and 5-bromoesculetin (6) were obtained from a light-induced cyclization of trans-caffeic acid (3) catalyzed by [FeNa(edta)] and/or H2SO4, HCI, or HBr (Scheme 1). The experimental conditions for trans-cis-isomerization of the cinnamic-acid derivative 3 and subsequent non-enzymatic cyclization were described. The photoperiod and the presence of air and iron-chelate catalyst are shown to be important parameters that markedly affect yields. The reactions probably occur by a free-radical mechanism involving a photo-initiated one-electron redox process (Scheme 2).

    Notes: The protected disaccharide 44, a precursor for the synthesis of allosamidin, was prepared from the glycosyl acceptor 8 and the donors 26-28, best yields being obtained with the trichloroacetimidate 28 (Scheme 6). Glycosidation of 8 or of 32 by the triacetylated, less reactive donors 38-40 gave the disaccharides 46 and 45, respectively, in lower yields (Scheme 7). Regioselective glycosidation of the diol 35 by the donors 38-40 gave 42, the axial, intramolecularly H-bonded OH—C(3) group reacting exclusively (Scheme 5). The glycosyl acceptor 8 was prepared from 9 by reductive opening of the dioxolane ring (Scheme 3). The donors 26-28 were prepared from the same precursor 9 via the hemiacetal 25. To obtain 9, the known 10 was de-N-acetylated (→ 18), treated with phthalic anhydride (→ 19), and benzylated, leading to 9 and 23 (Schemes 2 and 3). Saponification of 23, followed by acetylation also gave 9. Depending upon the conditions, acetylation of 19 yielded a mixture of 20 and 21 or exclusively 20. Deacetylation of 20 led to the hydroxyphthalamide 22. De-N-acetylation of the 3-O-benzylated β-D-glycosides 11 and 15, which were both obtained from 10, was very sluggish and accompanied by partial reduction of the O-allyl to an O-propyl group (Scheme 2). The β-D-glycoside 30 behaved very similarly to 11 and 15. Reductive ring opening of 31, derived from 29, yielded the 3-O-acetylated acceptor 32, while the analogous reaction of the β-D-anomer 20 was accompanied by a rapid 3-O→4-O acyl migration (→34; Scheme 4). Reductive ring opening of 21 gave the diol 35. The triacetylated donors 38-40 were obtained from 20 by debenzylidenation, acetylation (→36), and deallylation (→37), followed by either acetylation (→38), treatment with Me3SiSEt (→39), or Cl3CCN (→ 40).

    Notes: Bare FeO+ reacts in the gas phase with benzene at collision rate (k = 1.3 × 10-9 cm3 molecule-1 s-1), giving rise to the formation of Fe(C6H4)+/H2O(5%), Fe(C5H6)+/CO(37%), Fe(C5H5)+/CO/H. (2%), and Fe+/C6H5OH (56%). Neither the reaction rate nor the product distribution are subject to a significant kinetic isotope effect, thus, ruling out several mechanistic variants described in the literature to the operative for ‘analogous’ arene oxidation processes in solution. A mechanism is suggested which is in keeping with the experimental findings, and which also accounts for some remarkable results obtained, when two [Fe, C6,H6H6O]+ isomers are generated and subjected to a neutralization-re-ionization experiment in the gas phase.

    Notes: Quinic acid (1a), shikimic acid (2), and their derivatives were acylated in organic solvents by several lipases and by the protease subtilisin Carlsberg. The most satisfactory results were obtained with methyl (or benzyl) quinate (7a (or 8a)) and lipase from Chromobacterium viscosum adsorbed on Celite, which showed an overshelming preference towards the acylation of OH-C(4). Under optimized conditions, the syntehtically useful 4-O -acetylquinate 8d was isolated in ca. 90% yield. On the other hand, acylation of methyl shikimate (10a) showed no regioselectivity with any of the enzymes tested. A possible rationale for the different behavior of Chromobacterium viscosum lipase towards 7a and 10a is given, comparing the conformations of these two molecules, as deducted from 1H-NMR and molecular-mechanics calculation.

    Notes: A general synthetic strategy for the preparation of polyazamacrocycles containing long aliphatic chains is reported. These compounds are 22- or 24-membered hexaazamacrocycles incorporating two diethylenetriamine subunits (H2NCH2CH2NHCH2CH2NH2) linked together either by two CH2CH2OCH2CH2 (see 4-6), two tetramethylene (see 7), or two pentamethylene (see 8) fragments. Whereas for compound 4, one of the centrally located amine functionalities of the triamine subunit bears a hexadecyl chain, for compound 5, two of such chains are centrally attached to both subunits. In macrocycles 6-8, all six amino functionalities bear hexadecyl chains. Compounds 4-8 are potential candidates for the construction of selective chemical sensors such as specific electrodes for adenosine mono-, di-, and tri-phosphate. They may also be used for nucleoside polyphosphates extraction and/or transport.

    Notes: A new series of channel-type molecules presenting the features of potential transmembrane structures is described. They result from the grafting of amphiphilic side chains on a β-cyclodextrin derivative 3 that constitutes the organizing core. They belong to the ‘bouquet’ family (B). Compounds bearing poly(oxyethylene) side chains, BCDo16 and 17, and their polymethylene analogues BCDC18 and 19, were synthesized. The properties investigated emphasize the suitability of such molecules to be incorporated into lipid bilayer membranes.

    Notes: Reactions of 4-Bromo-1,6-methano[10]annulene-3-carbaldehyde: Syntheses of 3,4-Heteroanellated 1,6-Methano[10]annulenesSimilarly to β-chlorovinyl ketones, the title compound 1 reacts with dinucleophiles to give the 3,4-heteroanellated 1,6-methano[10]annulenes 2-4, 6, and 12-16, containing thiophene, pyrazole, pyrimidine, and thiazepine rings (Schemes 2 and 3). On reaction of 1 with tert-butylhydrazin, an unusual Michael-addition-dehydrogenation sequence, resulting in 2,3-anellation of a pyrazole ring (→5), is observed. Synthetic as well as some mechanistic aspects are briefly discussed.

    Notes: The exchange of butane with deuterium on a nickel/alumina catalyst is studied over a wide range of temperatures (50-230°) and for three hydrocarbon/deuterium ratios. The initial distribution is used to propose a reaction scheme by considering different adsorbed species such as: alkyl-(α), alkene-(α, β) and allyl-(α,β,γ) species, where α, β, and γ are different C-atoms. It is assumed that each adsorbed species can either desorb directly while exchanging one, two, and three H-atoms or undergo multiple exchange before desorption. It is shown that by reducing the activity of the catalyst a back-exchange of the fully deuterated species sets in a lower temperature; a systematic deviation of all model calculations for the estimation of the concentrations of the C4HD9 and C4D10 is, thus, explained. The exchange of CH3CD2CD2CH3 and CD3CH2CH2CD3 with H2 and D2 is also studied, and similar results are obtained as with exchanges of CH3CD2CH3 and CD3CH2CD3. With the help of very-high-resolution mass spectra, it is shown that the initial degree of deuteration, i. e. the degree of deuteration after one adsorption step, is 84% for the methylene and 57% for the methyl group respectively. The hydrogenolysis reactions of butane is studied in the same system between 180° and 230°. A wide range of conversion is covered, and the product distributions are fitted to kinetic equations in order to obtain the initial rate constants. On the nickel/alumina catalyst one or several C-C bonds are broken before the desorption of the species. Under the conditions used in these experiments, the surface cracking is the rate-limiting step. An isotope effect is observed for the decomposition in D2, the production of propane being favored.

    Notes: The title compund, 1a, has been synthesised in racemic form from ethyl (E)-4-chloro-3-ethoxybut-2-enoate in 43% overall yield in five steps. Several routes to the final product are described, but the most efficient involves hydrogenation of a C(5)-unsubstituted tetramic acid 5b. The instability of this class of compounds required the use of a catalyst which could operate under very acidic aqueous conditions, a role that was successfully filled by a 5% Ru/C catalyst.

    Notes: A set of derivatives of cyclopentaneacetic acid cis-substituted at position 3 by nucleoside bases (both purines and pyrimidines) were prepared and characterized (see 11, 14, and 23a, b; Schemes 2-4). These molecules are carbocyclic analogs of 2′,3′-dideoxy-5′-homonucleosides. In this synthesis, the skeleton was constructed from norbornanone and a novel method based on Mitsunobu chemistry used for the introduction of nucleoside-base substituents. The scope of this method was further explored via the preparation of a cyclobutyl analog of dideoxyguanosine (see 17, Scheme 3).

    Notes: α-Chamigren-3-one (+)-8 bearing an axial CI-atom at C(8) exists as a largely dominant conformer with Me - C(5) at the envelope-shaped enone ring pointing away from CIax-C(8) at the cyclohexane ring (= B) in the ‘normal’ chair conformation, as shown by 1H-NMR. In contrast, the α-chamigren-3-ols (+)-9 and (+)-10, obtained from hydride reduction of (+)-8, show a temperature-dependent equilibrium of conformers where the major conformers have ring B in the inverted-chair (and twist-boat for (+)-9) conformation to avoid repulsions between Me-C(5) and CIax-C(8) (Scheme 1). This is in agreement with the conformation of the epoxidation product (+)-12 of (+)-9 where Me-C(5) is pushed away from CIax-C(8) in a ring-B chair similar to that of (+)-8 (Scheme 2). Introduction of a pseudoequatorial Br-atom at C(2) of (+)-8, as in enone (+)-15 (Scheme 3), does not affect the conformation; but a pseudoaxial Br—C(2) experiences repulsive interactions with Heq-C(7), as shown by the 1H-NMR data of the isomeric enone (+)-16 where the ‘normal’-chair conformer Cβ-16 is in an equilibrium with the inverted chair conformer ICβ-16 (Scheme 3). These results and the accompanying paper allow a unifying view on the conformational behavior of marine polyhalogenated α-chamigrenes. This view is supported by the acid-induced isomerization of α-chamigrene (+)-9 (inverted chair) to β-chamigrene (+)-17 (‘normal’ chair; Scheme 4), the driving force being the lesser space requirement of CH2=C(5) than of Me-C(5). This explains why β-chamigrenes are so common in nature.

    Notes: The tris-carotenoid macrobicycles 1 and 2 were obtained in good yields in a one-step macrobicyclisation condensation between the tripode N(CH2CH2NH2)3 and the polyolefinic dialdehydes 5 and 6. They form dinuclear cryptates by complexation of two CuI ions. The crystal structure of the tris-carotenoid compound 2 confirms that it contains three parallel polyolefinic strands. These substances may formally be considered as prototypes of molecular ‘cables’ formed by three electron-conducting molecular wires.

    Notes: Coprine (1), a toxine of the mushroom Coprinus atramentarius, was synthesized starting from the 2-amino and 1-carboxy-protected L-glutamic acids 4 and 12. Compound 4 was first decarboxylated by a radical chain reaction to bromide 5 which underwent ring closure to cyclopropanecarboxylate 6 on treatment with NaH (Scheme 1). Subsequent oxidative electrolysis of 7 to form tert-butyl N-(1-ethoxycyclopropyl)carbamate (8) and acidic hydrolysis yielded the 1-aminocyclopropanol hydrochloride (9). Selective cleavage of the amino-protecting group of 8 (→ 10 or 11), coupling of the corresponding amine 13 with L-glutamic acid 12, and acidic hydrolysis of the resulting L-glutamine derivative 17 yielded O-ethylcoprine (3) and coprine (1).

    Notes: The 1,7-dideaza-2′-deoxyadenosine (c1c7Ad; 1) was converted into building blocks 3a,b for solid-phase oligodeoxyribonucleotide synthesis. Testing various N-protecting groups - benzoyl, phenoxyacetyl, [(fluoren-9-yl)methoxy]carbonyl, and (dimethylamino)methylidene - only the latter two were found to be suitable (1 → 4b, d). Ensuing 4,4′-dimethoxytritylation of 4d and phosphitylation afforded the 3′-phosphonate 3a or the 3′-[(2-cyanoethyl)diisopropylphosphoramidite] 3b. Self-complementary oligonucleotides with alternating dA or c1c7Ad and dT residues (7 and 8) as well as palindromic oligomers such as d(C-G-C-G-c1c7 A-c1c7 A-T-T-C-G-C-G) (10) and d(G-T-A-G-c1c7 A-c1c7 A-T-T-C-T-A-C) (12) were synthesized. Duplex stability was decreased because 1 cannot form Watson-Crick or Hoogsteen base pairs if incorporated into oligonucleotides. On the other hand, the structural modifications in 10 and 12 forced these palindromic oligomers to form hairpin structures.

These series extend the available range of photochromic properties (rate constant of thermal bleaching, UV/VIS spectrum of the opened coloured form, and photocoloration yield), an interesting feature of variable-transmission materials. The synthesis of these compounds (Scheme 1) required the preliminary synthesis of intermediate β-hydroxy-α-nitrosotherocycles 18 and 19 (Scheme 2). Important amounts of a coloured, non-photochromic, stable secondary product (See 20) were found in the condensation in the spiro[indole-thiazolobenzoxazine] series. The photochromic characteristics of the new derivatives were determined using a flash-photolysis apparatus coupled to a fast-scanning spectrometer. The role of the heteroatoms in the oxazine moiety and the role of substitutents in the indole moiety were investigated quantitatively through the study of the photochromic properties and the solvent effects. The presence of an S-atom gives rise to interesting properties which open up new prospects for synthesis and application.

    Notes: The titanates derived from α,α,α′,α′-tetraaryl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-dimethanols (TADDOLs, prepared from tartrate) act as catalysts for enantioselective additions of dialkylzinc compounds to aldehydes. For the standard reaction chosen for this investigation of the mechanism, the addition of diethylzinc to benzaldehyde, there is very little change of selectivity with different aryl substituents on the TADDOLate ligands (Tables 2-4, examples). With 0.02 to 0.2 equiv. of the chiral titanates, selectivities above 90% are observed only in the presence of excess tetraisopropyl titanate! According to NMR measurements (Fig. 2), the chiral bicyclic titanate and the achiral titanate do not react to give new species under these conditions. From experiments with different stoichiometries of the components, and with different achiral or chiral OR groups on the Ti-atom of the seven-membered ring titanate, it is concluded (i) that a single chiral titanate is involved in the product-forming step, (ii) that the bulky TADDOLate ligand renders the Ti-center catalytically more active than that of (i-PrO)4Ti, due to fast dynamics of ligand exchange on the sterically hindered Ti-center (Table 5, Fig. 3), and (iii) that the role of excess (i-PrO)4Ti is to remove - by ligand exchange - the product alkoxides (R*O) from the catalytically active Ti-center (Scheme 4, Table 6). Three new crystal structures of TADDOL derivatives (two clathrates with secondary amines, and a dimethyl ether) have been determined by X-ray diffraction (Figs. 5-7), and are compared with those previously reported. The distances between the C(aryl)2O oxygen atoms in the C2- and C1-symmetrical structures vary from 2.58 to 2.94 Å, depending upon the conformation of their dioxolane rings and the presence or absence of an intramolecular H-bond (Fig. 8). A single-crystal X-ray structure of a spiro-titanate, with two TADDOLate ligands on the Ti-atom, is described (Fig. 9); it contains six different seven-membered titanate-ring conformations in the asymmetric unit (Fig. 10), which suggests a highly flexible solution structure. The structures of Ti TADDOLate complexes are compared with those of C2-symmetrical Ru, Rh, and Pd disphosphine chelates (Table 7). A common topological model is presented for all nucleophilic additions to aldehydes involving Ti TADDOLates (Si attack with (R,R)-derivatives, relative topicity unlike; Fig. 11). Possible structures of complexes containing bidentate substrates for Ti TADDOLate-mediated ene reactions and cycloadditions are proposed (Fig. 12). A simple six-membered ring chair-type arrangement of the atoms involved can be used to describe the result of TADDOLate-mediated nucleophilic additions to aldehydes and ketones, with Ti, Zr, Mg, or Al bearing the chiral ligand (Scheme 6). A proposal is also made for the geometry of the intermediate responsible for enantioselective hydrogenation of N-(acetylamino)cinnamate catalyzed by Rh complexes containing C2-symmetrical diphosphines (Fig. 13).

    Notes: A new base pair (called κ-π) of Watson-Crick type, with an H-bond pattern different from that in A-T and G-C base pairs, has been recently synthesized by Benner and coworkers and shown to be stable and incorporable into duplex DNA and RNA by polymerases. This new base pair, which contains three H-bonds, is compared with G-C, in the framework of modern dynamical theory of quantum nonlocality and quantum correlations (also called Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen correlations). Connection with the traditional treatment of proton transfer in DNA base pairs, which uses the adiabatic approximation (thus considering the protons as classical particles), is explicitly made. As a result, the dynamics of the H-bond pattern of G-C is shown to exhibit a specific quantum-mechanical phase stability (or: rigidity, stiffness), which is clearly missing in the case of κ-π. This finding is discussed and illustrated, also in connection with recent quantum chemical calculations of proton transfers in DNA base pairs. Additionally, certain speculations concerning a probable ‘evolutionary advantage’ of G-C with respect to κ-π are shortly considered.

    Notes: 6-Thioxanthopterin (13) was synthesized in four steps starting from 2-amino-4-(penthyloxy)pteridine (3) via the 8-oxide 4, its subsequent interconversion to the 6-chloro (7) and 6-thio derivative (12) and final hydrolysis of the pentyloxy group. 7-Thioisoxanthopterin (15) was derived analogously from 2-amino-4-(pentyloxy)pteridine-7(8H)-thione (14) by alkaline hydrolysis. The various 6- and 7-thiopteridines were methylated to give the corresponding 6- (10, 11) and 7-(methylthio) derivatives (16, 17). The newly synthesized compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, their UV spectra, and the determination of the acidic and basic pKa values. The spectral relationships are discussed in detail.

    Notes: The syntheses and characterization of four new linear pentadentate ligands and their CoIII complexes are described: N,N′-[(pyridine-2,6-diy)bis(methylene)]bis[sarcosine] (sarmp), N,N′-[(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(methylene)]bis[(R)- or (S)-proline] ((R,R)- or (S,S)-promp), N,N′-[(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(methylene)]bis[N-(methyl)-(R)- or (S)-alanine] ((R,R)- or (S,S)-malmp); 2,2′-[pyridine-2,6-diyl]bis[(S)- or rac-N-(acetic acid)pyrrolidine] ((S,S)- or rac-bapap). The complexes were characterized and, with but one exception, complex formation is stereospecific: Δ-exo-(R,R) (or Λ-exo-(S,S)) for promp and Λ-(R,R) (or Δ-(S,S)) for bapap. The exception is [Co((R,R)- or (S,S)-malmp)H2O]ClO4 for which two forms are obtained, to which Λ-endo-(R,R) (or Δ-endo-(S,S)) and, tentatively, Δ-unsymmetric-(R,R)- (or Λ-unsymmetric-(S,S)-) configurations are assigned. X-Ray crystal structures are presented for the complexes [Co(sarmp)H2O]ClO4, [Co((S,S)-promp)H2O]ClO4, [Co(rac-bapap)H2O]ClO4 and endo-[Co(rac-malmp)H2O]ClO4. Ligand acid dissociation and CoII and FeII complex-formation constants are reported.

    Notes: In two steps, 5,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrrol-2(5H)-one (3a) was prepared from 5,5-dimethylpyrrolidine-2,4-dione ( = dimethyltetramic acid; 4) in 71% overall yield (Scheme 1) and further converted to N-substituted derivatives 3b-f via acylation, alkylation, or methoxycarbonylation of its anion (Scheme 2). The substituents on the N-atom exert a strong influence on the photochemical reactivity ([2 + 2] photocycloaddition to 2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene, photocyclodimerisation, photoreduction) of these aza-enones 3 (Scheme 3). In general, N-alkyl compounds react much slower and with less efficiency than either the (N-unsubstituted) title compound 3a or its N-acetyl and N-(methoxycarbonyl) derivatives 3e and 3f, respectively. These compounds behave similarly to the corresponding lactone, 5,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone, studied previously.

    Notes: Mechanistic questions regarding the reductive cleavage of sulfonium ions by the NiI form of coenzyme F430 pentamethyl ester (F430M) were addressed in a series of kinetic studies and isotope labeling experiments. In neat DMF, methane formation from dialkyl(methyl)sulfonium ions consistently showed a delay time of ca. 1 h. In the presence of excess propanethiol, no delay was observed and methane formation followed pseudo-first-order kinetics with a logarithmic dependence of the initial rate on the concentration of propanethiol. From the temperature dependence of the reaction rate, an estimate for the activation parameters of ΔH# = 49 kJ mol-1 and (apparent) ΔS# = -114 J K-1 mol-1 was derived. The observation of deuterium incorporation into methane from (CH3)2CHOD, but not from (CH3)2CDOH, indicates that the fourth H-entity is introduced into CH4 as a proton, and that free CH3 radicals are not involved. In contrast to the reaction with the homogeneous one-electron reductant sodium naphthalide, the F430M-catalyzed reduction of mixed dialkyl(methyl)sulfonium ions showed a pronounced selectivity for the cleavage of Me—S over that of alkyl-S (alkyl ≠ Me) bonds. Mechanisms that are consistent with these results, as well as possible explanations for the time delay and the apparent highly negative entropy of activation, are discussed.

    Notes: Why Pentose and Not Hexose Nucleic Acids? Part II . Preparation of Oligonucleotides Containing 2′,3′-Dideoxy-β-D-glucopyranosyl Building Blocks(7)This paper describes the preparation of the 2′,3′-dideoxy-β-D-glucopyranosyl-( = 2′,3′-dideoxy-β-D-erythro-hexopyranosyl)-derived nucleosides of the five bases adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine, and uracil ( = ‘homo-de-oxyribonucleosides’) as well as the synthesis of oligonucleotides derived from them. The methods used for both nucleoside and oligonucleotide synthesis closely follow the known methods of synthesis in the corresponding series of natural 2′-deoxyribonucleosides and oligonucleotides. The efficient methods of automated DNA synthesis proved to be fully applicable to the synthesis of homo-DNA oligonucleotides, the only change necessary for achieving satisfactory coupling yields being a slight lengthening of the coupling time. Homo-DNA oligonucleotides with chain lengths of up to twelve nucleoside units were assembled on solid support either manually or on a commercial DNA synthesizer in scales of 0.4 μmol to as much as 200 μmol and were purified by either reversed-phase or ion-exchange HPLC to single-peak purity according to both chromatographic systems (estimated purity 〉 95%). The choice of the specific base sequences to be synthesized was determined primarily by the constitutional problems of base pairing that emerged from experimental observations made in the course of systematic studies of the pairing properties of homo-DNA oligonucleotides. About 100 homo-DNA sequences were prepared for this purpose. Their pairing properties will be described in Part III of this series; the present paper is restricted to the characterization of the purity and constitutional integrity of a few selected (single-stranded) oligonucleotides by 1H-, 31P-, and 13C-NMR spectroscopy as well as by FAB and time-of-flight mass spectroscopy.The English Footnotes to Schemes 1-9, Fig. 1-12, and Table 1 provide an extension of this summary.

    Notes: The copper-catalyzed oxidation of ascorbic acid (AscH2) has been studied with a Clark electrode in aqueous MeCN. CuI or CuII may be equally used as the source of metal ion, without influence on the rate law. At sufficiently high [MeCN], the rate of the overall reaction is essentially given by the rate of CuI autoxidation: the reaction is of first order with respect to [CutotI,II] and [O2] and shows an inverse-square dependence on [MeCN] as observed for the autoxidation of Cuaq+. The pH dependence is complicated by the combination of the intrinsic pH effect on autoxidation with an additional term in the rate law which is directly proportional to [AscH-]. The latter term is explained by direct oxidation of the organic substrate by the primary dioxygen adduct of CuI, CuO2+. For [MeCN] 〈 0.7M, a gradual and pH-dependent transformation of this rate law and deviation from the first-order dependence on [O2] is indicated.

    Notes: The fate of tetrahydrolipstatin (1) incubated with human carboxyl-ester lipase (HCEL) was investigated. The primary metabolite was identified as δ-(N-formyl-L-leucyloxy)-β-hydroxy acid 2a with conserved configuration. It is formed by attack of the active-site serine of HCEL at the carbonyl C-atom of the β-lactone ring of 1 followed by hydrolysis of the intermediate serine ester. Further products isolated were identified and a complete degradation scheme is proposed.

    Notes: ESR and cyclic voltammetry investigations show that isomerization of the radical cation of cis-1,1′-azonorbornane (cis-1) to the trans-radical ion proceeds too fast in solution for direct investigation of the cis-radical ion even at -78°. The facile isomerization of the radical cation is in agreement with PM3 calculations proposing an activation barrier of only 17 kJ/mol. As a consequence, quantitative cis → trans isomerization of 1,1′-azonorbornane can effectively be accomplished by addition of catalytic amounts of one-electron oxidants. This is the first evidence for a radical-cation-catalyzed cis → trans isomerization of azo compounds.

    Notes: Irradiation (λ = 350 nm) of newly synthesized 2-acetyl- or 2-methyl-2-(alk-2-enyl)furan-3(2H)-ones 1 and 2-acetyl- or 2-methyl-2-(prop-2-enyl)thiophen-3(2H)-ones 2 affords the corresponding 1-acetyl- or 1-methyl-substituted 7-oxa- and 7-thiatricyclo[3.2.1.03,6]octan-2-ones 10 and 11, respectively, via regioselective intramolecular [2 + 2] photocycloaddition in 65-95% yield (Scheme 2). The 1-acetyl-substituted O-derivatives 10b and 10c undergo ring opening on treatment with MeONa in MeOH at-78° to afford stereoselectively methyl 3-exo-acetyl-2-oxabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-7-endo-carboxylates 12b and 12c, respectively, while a 2:1 diastereoisomeric mixture of methyl 3-acetyl-2-thiabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane-7-endo-carboxylates 13 and 14 is obtained from the corresponding S-derivative 11b. The outcome of the Huang-Minlon reduction of the 1-methyl-substituted ketones 10a and 11a is again influenced by the heteroatom in the tricycle. While 1-methyl-7-oxatricyclo[3.2.1.03,6]-octane (15) is the only product from the corresponding oxatricyclooctanone 10a, a 1:2 mixture of 1-methyl-7-thiatricyclo[3.2.1.03,6]-octane (16) and 3-methylbicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-ene-6-endo-thiol (17) is obtained from the analogous S-compound 11a, both products stemming from a common carbanion precursor.

    Notes: The reaction of highly alkylated azulenes with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (ADM) in decalin or tetralin at 180-200° yields, beside the expected heptalene- and azulene-1,2-dicarboxylates, tetracyclic compounds of type ‘anti’-V and tricyclic compounds of type E (cf. Schemes 2-4 and 8-11). The compounds of type ‘anti’-V represent Diels-Alder adducts of the primary tricyclic intermediates A with ADM. In some cases, the tricyclic compounds of type E also underwent a consecutive Diels-Alder reaction with ADM to yield the tetracyclic compounds of type ‘anti’- or ‘syn’-VI (cf. Schemes 2 and 8-11). The tricyclic compounds of type E, namely 4 and 8, reversibly rearrange via [1,5]-C shifts to isomeric tricyclic structures (cf. 18 and 19, respectively, in Scheme 6) already at temperatures 〉 50°. Photochemically 4 rearranges to a corresponding tetracyclic compound 20 via a di-π-methane reaction. The observed heptalene- and azulene-1,2-dicarboxylates as well as the tetracyclic compounds of type ‘anti’'-V are formed from the primary tricyclic intermediates A via rearrangement (→heptalenedicarboxylates), retro-Diels-Alder reaction (→ azulenedicarboxylates), and Diels-Alder reaction with ADM. The different reaction channels of A are dependent on the substituents. However, the main reaction channel of A is its retro-Diels-Alder reaction to the starting materials (azulene and ADM). The highly reversible Diels-Alder reaction of ADM to the five-membered ring of the azulenes is HOMO(azulene)/LUMO(ADM)-controlled, in contrast to the at 200° irreversible ADM addition to the seven-membered ring of the azulenes to yield the Diels-Alder products of type E. This competing reaction must occur on grounds of orbital-symmetry conservation under SHOMO(azulene)/LUMO(ADM) control (cf. Schemes 20-22). Several X-ray diffraction analyses of the products were performed (cf. Chapt. 4.1).

    Notes: It is shown here that the red seaweed Laurencia microcladia KÜTZNING, collected in the Mediterranean off the torrent Il rogiolo, contains the C15 acetogenin rogioloxepane A ( = (+)-(2R,7R)-2-(1-bromopropyl)-7-[(Z)-1-chlorohex-3-en-5-ynyl]-2,3,6,7-tetrahydrooxepin; (+)-3) besides its epoxy derivative rogioloxepane B ((+)-4) and the rogioloxepane C ((+)-5) derived from (+)-4 by epoxide opening. Co-occurring is an acyclic C15 acetogenin, perrogioloxepane ( = (7R,4Z,9Z,12Z)-6-chloropentadeca-3,9,12-trien-1-yn-7-ol; 9), which exists preferentially in a folded conformation as required to give, by intramolecular cyclization, rogioloxepane A (3TC) in its favored twist-chair form. Molecular-mechanics calculations support this view and help also to assign the relative configurations at the side chains, whereas the configurations at the seven-membered ring are established via NMR spectroscopy and chemical correlations. The absolute configuration is established by Mosher's NMR method applied to the MTPA esters of (+)-5 or 9.

In all cases, facile insertion of the C=O bond into the W—H bond was observed, with rapid subsequent extrusionof a coordinated CO ligand affording O,N-bidentate coordinated tungsten alkoxides. Only in case of pyridine-2-carbaldehyde and di(pyridin-2-yl) ketone, the initial n1 O-bonded insertion product could be observed as unstable intemediates by low-temperature NMR.

The mono-O-substituted methoxytrityl derivatives were separately converted to octameric phosphodiesters on an aminomethyl-polystyrene carrier by the phosphotriester method. These oligomers of carba-nucleosides were prepared in order to study their annealing behaviour towards ribo- and deoxyribo-nucleic acids as well as their potential for homologous hybridization.

    Notes: Glycosylsulfenyl snf (Glycosylthio) sulfenyl Halides (Halogeno and Halogenothio 1-Thioglycosides, Resp.): Preparation and Reaction with AlkenesThe disulfides 11-17 and 20 were prepared from 7, 9, and 18 via the dithiocarbonates 8, 10, and 19, respectively (Scheme 2). The structure of 11 and of 13 was established by X-ray analysis. Chlorolysis (SO2Cl2) of 11 gave mostly the sulfenyl chloride 24, characterized as the sulfenamide 26, a small amount of 21, characterized as the (glycosylthio)sulfenamide 23, and the glycosyl chloride 27 (Scheme 3). Bromolysis of 11 followed by treatment of the crude with PhNH2 yielded only 28. Chlorolysis of the diglycosyl disulfide 13, however, gave mostly the (glycosylthio)sulfenyl chloride 21 and 27, besides 24. Bromolysis of 13 (→22 and traces of 25) followed by treatment with PhNH2 gave an even higher proportion of 23. Similarly, 20 led to 29 and hence to 30. In solution (CH2Cl2), the sulfenyl chloride 24 decomposes faster than the (thio)sulfenyl chloride 21, and both interconvert. Addition of crude 24 to styrene (-78°) yielded the chloro-sulfide 31 and some 37, both in low yields. The product of the addition of 24 to l-methylcyclohexene was transformed into the triol 32. Silyl ethers of allylic alcohols reacted with 24 only at room temperature, yielding, after desilylation, isomer mixtures 33 and 34, and pure 35. Much higher yields were achieved for the addition of (thio)sulfenyl halides yielding halogeno-disulfides. Good diastereoselctivites were only obtained with 21, its cyclohexylidene-protected analogue, and 22, and this only in the addition to styrene (→36, 37, 38), to (E)-disubstituted alkenes (→46, 48, 49a/b, 50a/b, 53), and to trisubstituted alkenes (→47, 51, 52, 54, 55). Other monosubstituted alkenes (→41-45) and (Z)-hex-2-ene (→49c/d,50c/d) reacted with low diastereoselectivities. Where structurally possible, a stereospecific trans-addition was observed; regioselectivity was observed in the addition to mono- and trisubstituted alkenes and to derivatives of allyl alcohols. The absolute configuration of the 2-chloro-disulfides was either established by X-ray analysis (47a) or determined by transforming (LiAlH4) the chloro-disulfides into known thiiranes (Scheme 5). Thus, 37, 48, and the mixture of 49a/b and 50a/b gave the thiiranes 56, 61, and 64, respectively, in good-to-acceptable yields (Scheme 5). Harsher conditions transformed 56 into the thiols 57 and 58. Similarly, 61 gave 62. The enantiomeric excesses of these thiols were determined by GC analysis of their esters obtained with (-)-camphanoyl chloride. Addition of 21 to {[(E)-hex-2-enyl]oxy}trimethylsilane, followed by LiAlH4 reduction and desilylation, gave the known 66 (63%, e.e. 74%). The diastereoselectivity of the addition of 21 to trans-disubstituted and trisubstituted alkenes is rationalized by assuming a preferred conformation of the (thio)sulfenyl chloride and destabilizing steric interactions with one of the alkene substituents, while the diastereoselectivity of the addition to styrene is explained by postulating a stabilizing interaction between the phenyl ring and the C(1)-S substituent (Fig.4).

Only marginal inhibition of the tyrosine kinases v-able and c-src and of the serine/threonine kinase PKC was observed. Compounds 8, 9, 11, and 12 - lacking the adenosine moiety - were ten times less active than the most potent derivatives, whereas 17 - lacking the nitrostyryl part - showed no inhibitory activity at all. Most of the compounds showed potent antiproliferative activity against an EGF-dependent mouse keratinocyte cell line.
