Further studies on the anti-ulcerogenic effects of compound, 2-(E-2-decenoylamino)ethyl 2-(cyclohexylethyl) sulfide.

Tha anti-ulcerogenic mechanism of 2-(E-2-decenoylamino)ethyl 2-(cyclohexylethyl) sulfide (compd. III-1a) was investigated in various gastric defensive factors. Compound III-1a maintained the high molecular glycoprotein (relative content of Fr. I hexose) and accelerated hexosamine synthesis which were reduced by water immersion stress. But plaunotol did not have these actions. The lipid peroxide level in the gastric mucosa from water immersion stressed rat was lowered by the administration of compd. III-1a. Compound III-1a maintained prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and PGI2 contents which were reduced in the early phase of the stress and accelerated PGs synthesis in the late phase of the stress. Furthermore, compd. III-1a maintained phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity which was reduced by the stress. The plaunotol treated group showed the same tendency as the compd. III-1a treated group on the lipid peroxide level, PGE2 and PGI2 contents, and PLA2 activity, but the potency of plaunotol was less than that of compd. III-1a. Compound III-1a accelerated gastric cell proliferation in pyloric glands of hydrocortisone treated rats. Tetragastrin accelerated significantly the cell proliferation in fundic glands. The sucralfate treated group showed the same tendency as the compd. III-1a treated group but the potency of sucralfate was less than that of compd. III-1a. The results in the present study suggest that compd. III-1a has a protective action on gastric mucosa.     

Inhibitory effect of 2-(E-2-alkenoylamino)ethyl alkyl sulfides on gastric ulceration in rats. II. Structure and activity relationships of 2-(E-n or Z-n-Decenoylamino)ethyl alkyl sulfides

The analogues of 2-(E-n or Z-n-decenoylamino)ethyl carbamoylmethyl sulfide, including the modifications of sulfide portion, double bond in decenoyl chain and alkyl sulfide moiety, were synthesized and their inhibitory effects on stress-induced ulceration in rats were compared. Replacing the sulfura atom by methylene group or oxygen atom reduced the effect of potency. Saturation of the double bond in the decenoyl chain tended to reduce the anti-ulcerogenic activity in rats. There was no relationship between the position of double bond in decenoyl chain and the pharmacological activity. On the other hand, compounds with E-configuration showed stronger anti-ulcer activity than the corresponding Z-type of compounds. Among 9 kinds of S substituted alkyl groups for carbamoylmethyl, 2-(E-2-decenoylamino)ethyl 2-cyclohexylethyl sulfide showed the most potent anti-ulcerogenic activity in rats and also showed the lowest acute toxicity in mice.

Further studies on the pharmacological effect of the anti-inflammatory compound, bis[2-(E-2-octenoylamino)ethyl] disulfide

Further studies on the pharmacological effect of orally administered bis[2-(E-2-octenoyl-amino)ethyl] disulfide (compd. I-3) was examined by using several experimental models in vivo. Compound I-3 showed analgesic activity, inhibiting both acetic acid- and acetylcholine-induced writhings in mice. This compound also showed antipyretic activity against yeast-induced fever in rats, and significantly inhibited arachidonic acid-induced mortality in mice. However, it had no effect on serotonin-induced paw edema formation or platelet activating factor-acether-induced mortality in mice. The effects of compd. I-3 are suggested to be due to inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis.     

Psilocin analogs II. Synthesis of 3-[2-(dialkylamino)ethyl]-, 3-[2-(N-methyl-N-alkylamino)ethyl]-, and 3-[2-(cycloalkylamino)ethyl]indol-4-ols

Structural alteration of the N^b-substituents of psilocin (3-[2-dimethylamino)ethyl]indol-4-ol) ( 12a ) has led to a number of compounds containing known pharmacophoric groups. Further, it is hoped that the subtle changes in the nature of these substituents may lead to a clearer understanding of the structure-activity relationships of the 4-hydroxytryptamine hallucinogens.     

Psilocin analogs. 1. Synthesis of 3-[2-(dialkylamino)ethyl] -and 3-[2-(cycloalkylamino)ethyl] indol-4-ols

The synthesis of four dialkyl and three eyeloalkyl analogs of psilocin (4, R - CH₃), a hallucinogenic principle found in certain fungi, is described. The synthetic route involves four transformations starting with 6,7-dihydroindol-4(5H)one: (1).     

The effect of a cystamine derivative, bis[2-(E-2-hexenoylamino)ethyl] disulfide, on rat platelet aggregation

Bis[2-(E-2-alkenoylamino)ethyl] disulfides (compds. I), synthesized from cystamine and 2-trans fatty acids, inhibited collagen-induced rat and rabbit platelet aggregation. The most potent compound was bis[2-(E-2-hexenoylamino)ethyl] disulfide (compd. I-1), and this compound suppressed thromboxane B2 formation from arachidonic acid in rat platelets. The results suggested that compd. I-1 has an inhibitory effect on cyclooxygenase.     

2-(Trialkoxysilylalkylthio)ethyl vinyl sulfides

Conclusions Trialkoxysilylalkanethiols (CH₃O)₃Si(CH₂)_nSH (n=1–3) react with divinyl sulfide at 100–110° to give 2-(trialkoxysilylalkylthio)ethyl vinyl sulfides (CH₃O)₃Si(CH₂)_nS (CH₂)₂SCH=CH₂ in high yield. The reactivity of the trialkoxysilylalkanethiols decreases with increase in the number of CH₂ groups between the S and Si atoms. A second molecule of the organosilicon thiol acids adds with difficulty to divinyl sulfide to give the diadduct.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 197–199, January, 1977.     

Synthesis of [2-(vinyloxy)ethyl]uracil and [2-(allyloxy)ethyl]uracil

A synthesis is reported for N¹-mono- and N¹,N³-disubstituted uracil derivatives containing a terminal carbon-carbon double bond in the side-chain. Alkylation of vinyl 2-chloroethyl ether by uracil potassium salts leads to a mixture of 1-[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl] and 1,3-di[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl] derivatives while treatment of 2,4-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)pyrimidines by vinyl 2-chloroethyl ether leads exclusively to N¹-monosubstituted products. Alkylation of cytosine by this chloroether gave 1-[2-(vinyloxy)ethyl]cytosine. The synthesis of 1-[2-(allyloxy)ethyl]uracil derivatives was carried out by treatment of uracil potassium salts by 1-(allyloxy)-2-(p-toluenesulfonyloxy)ethane.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 393–397, March, 1993.     

Effects of physiological factors on the bioavailability of ethyl 2-chloro-3-[4-(2-methyl-2-phenylpropyloxy)phenyl]propionate in an emulsion in rats

The main absorption site of ethyl 2-chloro-3-[4-(2-methyl-2-phenylpropyloxy)phenyl]propionate (AL-294) in rats was the upper portion of the small intestine. Both AL-294 and AL-294 acid (2-chloro-3-[4-(2-methyl-2-phenylpropyloxy)phenyl]propionic acid), a hydrolyzed form of AL-294, were absorbed in a smaller quantity under the bile fistula condition (pancreatic juice and bile were excluded). Compared with the absorption of AL-294 as an emulsion under the sham operation condition, the absorption of AL-294 as the emulsion decreased under the condition where only pancreatic juice was excluded. The bioavailability under this condition was very similar to that under the bile fistula condition, whereas the absorption of AL-294 acid did not decrease when the pancreatic juice was excluded. From these results, the absorption mechanism of AL-294 is considered as follows: AL-294 was hydrolyzed to AL-294 acid by lipase in pancreatic juice, then AL-294 acid was solubilized with bile salts to form mixed micelles in the intestinal lumen. AL-294 acid from this form was easily absorbed into the systemic circulation. Absorption of AL-294 increased when the particle size of the emulsion was smaller. The reason was assumed to be that the smaller particle size offered the greater oil-water interface for lipase activity against AL-294.
