The chromatographic separation of the MeOH extract from the twigs of Acer tegmentosum led to the isolation of ten phenolic compounds. The structures of these compounds were determined using spectroscopic methods as 3,7,3',4'-tetramethyl-quercetin (1), 5,3'-dihydroxy-3,7,4'-trimethoxy flavone (2), 2,6-dimethoxy-p-hydroquinone (3), (-)-catechin (4), morin-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-lyxoside (5), p-hydroxy phenylethyl-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (6), 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxy phenyl-1-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside (7), fraxin (8), 3,5-dimethoxy-benzyl alcohol 4-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (9) and 4-(2,3-dihydroxy propyl)-2,6-dimethoxy phenyl ${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (10). The compounds were examined for their cytotoxic activity against five cancer cell lines. Compound 3 exhibited good cytotoxic activity against five human cancer cell lines with $ED_{50}$ values ranging from $1.32\;to\;3.85\;{\mu}M$.

An antibacterial benzoquinone, 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone, isolated from Ficus foveolata stems was used as a standard marker for establishment of quantitative HPLC analysis for the stem extracts of F. foveolata. The method utilized a TSK-gel ODS-80Ts column (5 μm, 4.6 × 250 mm) with the mixture of methanol and 5% acetic acid in water (24:76, v/v) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 mL/min, and quantitative detection at 289 nm. The parameters i.e. linearity, intraday and interday precision, accuracy, specificity and sensitivity of the method were evaluated for method validation. The recoveries of the method were 99.5 - 103.6% and good linearity (R² ≥ 0.9999) was obtained. A high degree of specificity, sensitivity as well as repeatability and reproducibility (RSD less than 2 and 5%, respectively) were also achieved. Chloroform was served as the most suitable solvent for extraction of 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone. The optimised sample preparation and HPLC method can be practically used in the routine quality control process of F. foveolata stem extracts.

The in vitro metabolism of a new herbicide pyribenzoxim, {benzophenone O-[2,6-bis[(4,6-dimethoxy-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]benzoyl]oxime} was studied using rice, barnyardgrass and rat liver microsomes. No metabolism of pyribenzoxim was observed with rice and barnyardgrass microsomes though the cvtochrome P450 was active, which was evidenced by the metabolism of cinnamic acid. With rat liver microsomes, four metabolites (M1, M2, M3, and M4) were produced while parent compound decreased. M1 and M2 were from the hydrolysis reactions and NADPH-dependent metabolites were M3 and M4 (major metabolite) which were hydroxylated by cytochrome P450. They were identified as bispyribac-sodium (M1), benzophenone oxime (M2), {benzophenone O-[2,6-bis[(5-hydroxy-4,6-dimethoxy-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]-benzoyl]oxime}(M3), and {benzophenone O-[2[(5-hydroxy-4,6-dimethoxy-2l-pyrimidinyl)6-(4,.6dimethoxy-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]benzoyl]oxime} (M4) through LC/MS/MS analyses. Based on the results obtained metabolic map of pyribenzoxim is proposed.

For the exploration of pharmacophoric moiety of malloapelta B (1) possessing the inhibitory activity of $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation, structural variation of ${\alpha},{\beta}-unsaturated$ carbonyl motif was attempted. 1 was reduced by catalytic hydrogenation, sodium borohydride, and lithium aluminumhydride. Catalytic hydrogenation with 30 psi or 15 psi of $H_2$ gas of 1 generated 8-butyl-5,7-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethylchroman (2) and 1-(5,7-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethylchroman-8-yl)butan-1-one (3), respectively. Reduction with sodium borohydride occurred at the double bond of ${\alpha},{\beta}-unsaturated$ ketone of 1 to give 1-(5,7-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethyl-2H-chromen-8-yl)butan-1-one (4). Reduction of 1 with lithium aluminumhydride and then quenched with methanol and water produced unexpected products, 1-(5,7-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethyl-2H-chromen-8-yl)-3-methoxy-1-butene (5) and 1-(5,7-dimethoxy-2,2-dimethyl-2H-chromen-8-yl)-3-hydroxy-1-butene (6). These are formed from the isomerization of initial product 9 through the continuous conjugate carbocation intermediate 11. Addition of ethylmagnesium bromide and dimethyl malonate anion to 1 gave the conjugate adducts 7 and 8. Ethylmagesium bromide and sodium borohydride reduction unusually gave the conjugate addition due to steric congestion around carbonyl group of 1. Compound 2 exhibits the reduced inhibitory activity against $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation and the others do not show the activity. Therefore ${\alpha},{\beta}-unsaturated$ carbonyl group of 1 should be important for its inhibitory activity.

Thirty six 5,8-dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone derivatives, which bear unsaturated alkyl side chain with ester bond, were synthesized and tested cytotoxic activity on L1210 cells a nd antitumor activity against ICR mice bearing S-180 cells. It could be recognized that the cytotoxicities of naphthoquinones with R1, being methyl and propyl (IV1~24) were not enhanced by replacing the alkanoyls with alkenoyls. In contrast, the introduction of the alkenoyl moieties on the compounds with $R_1$=hexyl (IV25~36) resulted in the enhancement of their cytotoxicities. Replacement of alkanoyl group with an alkenoyl group generally increased the T/C value of the mice bearing S-180 cells.

The Three months subacute toxicity of water soluble dimethyl dimethoxy biphenylate derivative (DDB-S), newly formulated therapeutic agent for hepatitis, was invesgated in SD rats. The body weight and clinical signs were observed after intravenous injection of DDBs at doses of 57, 75 and 100 mg/kg/day for three months. Decrease in motor activity and tremor were observed above 75mg/kg treated groups. Statistically significant changes at serum biochemical analysis were found in some group, how-ever, those changes were within the normal range and had no relationship with dosage. There was no abnormal morphological and pathological findings in relation to DDB-S treatment. The no observable adverse effect level of DDB-S in rats was estimated to be 57 mg/kg/day in this study.

Acid and base catalyzed intramolecular cyclizations of N-benzoylthioureidoacetal, contain-ing four functional groups adjacent to thiourea such as benzocarbamoyl, acetal, thioure and amide, were investigated. The condensation reaction of N-benzoyl thiocarbamoylgly-cine amide in the presence of 10% aqueous NaOH provided 1-(2,2-dimethoxy)ethyl-imi- dazolidine-2-thione exclusively. In the presence of pyridine, it was transformed to 2- thiohydantoin. N-Benzoyl thiocarbamoyl glycine amide was completely transformed to an iminothiazolidine exclusively in the presence of Lewis acid such as borontrifluoride ether-ate or trimethylsilyl iodide. 1-(2,2-Dimethoxy)ethyl-imidazolidine-2-thione was transformed to imidazole[2,1-b]thiazole and pyrazino[5,1-a]imidazole in the presence of $BF_3$.$ET_2$O and formic acid, respectively.
