چکیده

Previously, we reported an interesting reaction by which esculeogenin A [(5alpha,22S,23S,25S)-3beta,23,27-trihydroxyspirosolane], a sapogenol of tomato-saponin, esculeoside A, was easily converted into a pregnane derivative, 5alpha-pregn-16-en-3beta-ol-20-one, merely by refluxing with pyridine and water. Its chemical mechanism including air oxidation is here described.

and their glycosides are normally 22R configuration. On the other hand, spirosolanes such as tomatidine, solasodine and their glycosides take both 22R and 22S configurations (Chart 1). To determine the configuration at C-22 is very important, because the difference in C-22 configuration relates to the chemical reactions and bio-activity, for example, as shown in the following reaction of spiros...

ELECTROCHEMICAL INVESTIGATION OF INHIBITORY OF NEW SYNTHESIZED TETRAZOLE DERIVATIVE ON CORROSION OF STAINLESS STEEL 316L IN ACIDIC MEDIUM

In this study, an  organic compound  inhibitor, namely N-benzyl-N-(4-chlorophenyl)-1H-tetrazole-5-amine (NBTA), was synthesized and the role of this inhibitor for corrosion protection of stainless steel (SS) exposed to 0.5 M H2SO4 was investigated using electrochemical, and quantum analysis. By taking advantage of potentiodynamic polarization, the inhibitory action of NBTA was found t...

Steroidogenic correlates of pregnancy in the rock hyrax (Procavia capensis).

In pregnant rock hyraxes isolated leucocytes metabolise both [3H]pregnenolone and [3H]progesterone while whole blood, erythrocytes and an erythrocyte/leucocyte mixture only metabolised [3H]progesterone. Plasma displayed no tendency to metabolically convert any one of these two steroids. In whole blood [3H]progesterone appears to be converted to 5alpha-pregnane-3,20-dione and a compound with chr...

Intersting SAR studies of pregnane alkaloids isolated from genus Sarcococca against cholinesterase enzymes

The genus Sarcococca is widely distributed in South-East Asia and it comprises 14 species. The genus is traditionally used for gastrointestinal ulcers, infections, pain and in rheumatic fevers. Recently, our group has derived a comprehensive SAR relationship picture for a new series of natural cholinesterase inhibitors isolated from Sarcococca saligna (syn. S. pruniformis, Buxaceae). The fracti...
