It was established that .alpha.-spinasterol (I) was isomerized by hydrogen chloride to a mixture of two isomers. These isomers were separated into each of components and identified as .DLETA.$^{8(14),22}$ -stigmastadienol (III) and ${\delta}$$^{14,22}$ -stigmastadienol (IV), respectively. The mass spectra of these compounds were found to be particularly suitable to idetify the position of nuclear double bond of sterols possessing 22 : 23 -double bond in side chain.

Density functional theory calculations are presented for the geometrical isomers of the cyanopolyacetylenes H(C≡C)n,,C≡N (n = I-3). The structures, hartmonic frequencies and dipole moments are computed, employing the 6-311G** basis set. The ener gies of barrier to isomerization (exchange of carbon and nitrogen atoms) are also computed in order to estimate the stability of the isomers in interstellar space.

LIS's of cis and trans-methyl-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate, cis and trans-t-butyl-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate, cis and trans-N,N-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxamide, trans-2-phenylcyclopropyl methyl ketone and trans-2-phenylcyclopropyl t-butyl ketone have been studied. The LIS's hold the McConnell-Robertson relation and are mainly influenced by the steric effect. LIS's of trans isomers are larger than those of cis isomers. In trans isomers, the LIS's decrease in the following order: methyl ketone > methyl ester > N,N-dimethyl amide > t-butyl ketone${\sim}$t-butyl ester.

Calculations are presented for the molecule HC2N and its geometrical isomers. The structures, harmonic frequencies and dipole moments are reported. The potential energy surface of the [H,C,C,N] system is investigated in detail, and the transition states, intermediate complexes, and the energies of barrier for the isomerization and dissociation reactions are computed in order to determine the reaction paths and to estimate the stability of the isomers. The barriers of isomerization among HCCN, HCNC and HNCC are computed to be rather large and dissociations of these molecules are highly endothermic, indicating that these molecules are kinetically stable. The association reactions HC + CN→HCCN, HC + NC→HCNC, and HN + CC →HNCC are barrierless and very exothermic, suggesting that they may be considered as efficient means of producing the HCCN and the isomers in the laboratory and in interstellar space.

The combined ab initio and vibrational predissociation (VP) spectroscopic studies on methylammonium-$(water)_4$ complex aimed at understanding the hydration behavior of an amphiphilic ion core are described. The ab initio calculations predicted eleven low-energy isomers forming cyclic, tripod, chain, and caged structures, and their relative stabilities, total hydration energies and thermodynamic functions at 298 K and 150 K. The excellent correlation between the observed VP spectra and ab initio spectra for bonded N-H, bonded O-H and free O-H stretches suggested co-existence of five cyclic isomers and two non-cyclic isomers in ion beam at 150 K, consistent with the trends of calculated Gibbs free energies.

Farinomalein is a maleimide-bearing compound well known for its anti-fungal activity. In the present study, synthesis of farinomalein is achieved via Stobbe condensation followed by Haval-Argade contrathermodynamic rearrangement. Kinetically driven Stobbe condensation followed by condensation with beta-alanine reveals formation of two isomers of farinomalein. This article describes application of LC-MS/MS in structure elucidation of farinomalein 1 and its isomers 2 and 3 encountered in its synthesis. The proposed distinct fragmentation pathway is supported by rational organic reaction mechanism. These fragmentation pathways are significant for analytical method development of farinomalein in near future. The structures of farinomalein 1 and its isomers 2 and 3 have been assigned undisputedly.

Ab initio and extended Huckel calculations were carried out on the isomers of trans-RhCl(η2-C2H2)(PH3)2 (1). Due to π-back donation in 1 complex, the rotational energy barrier of alkyne ligand is computed to be in the range of 18.6-25.2 kcal/mol at MP4 levels. The optimized hydrido-alkynyl complex (2) at ab initio level has the distorted trigonal bipyramidal structure. Vinylidene complex (3) is computed to be more stable than 1 complex by 17.1 kcal/mol at MP4//MP2 level. The stabilities of isomers show similar trend at the various level calculations, that is, EHT, MP4//HF, and MP4//MP2 levels. The optimized geometries at ab initio level are in reasonable agreement with experimental data. A detailed account of the bonding in each isomers (1-3) have been carried out in terms of orbital analyses.

In order to facilitate the quantification in autumnal Hamamelidaceae leaves, a HPLC method was used for the determination of two chlorophyll catabolites and their isomers: bilin-type (1) and bilinone-type (2) ones. The separation was done on a RP-C4 column with a gradient solvent system of 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid aqueous-methanol at the flow-rate of 0.2 mL/min and detected at 244 nm. The quantity of bilin-type (1) and bilinone-type (2) chlorophyll catabolite isomers from ten species of Hamamelidaceae autumnal leaves methanol extracts: Corylopsis pauciflora, Corylopsis spicata, Forthergilla major, Hamamelis intermedia, Hamamelis japonicum, Hamamelis japonicum var. flavopurpurscens, Hamamelis virginiana, Parrotiopsis jacquemontiana, Parrotia persica and X Sycoparrotia semidecidua were from 0.85 mg/g ~ 57.50 mg/g for bilin-type isomers (1) and 3.40 mg/g ~ 49.30 mg/g for bilinone-type isomers (2). The results obtained gave insight in quantitative bilintype (1) and bilinone-type (2) chlorophyll catabolite composition of the Hamamelidaceae plant species autumnal leaves.

This study was designed to compare the anti-carcinogenic effect of conjugated linoleic acid isomers on tumor incidence, cell proliferation and the levels of thromboxane (TX) B$_2$, prostaglandin (PG) E$_2$ and 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG), and the related enzyme expression of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 and protein kinase C (PKC) in colonic mucosa of 1,2-dimethy- lhydrazine (DMH) -treated rats. One hundred eight male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups depending on the types of CLA isomers, i.e. control group (no CLA contained), c9t11 group (cis-9, trans-11 CLA contained), and t10c12 group (trans-10, cis-12 CLA contained). The experimental diet was composed of protein at 20%, carbohydrate at 56.2%, and fat at 14.5% including 1.0% CLA isomers by weight. The experimental diet was fed for 30 weeks with the initiation of intramuscular injection of DMH, which was injected twice a week for 6 weeks to give total dose of 180 mg per kg body weight. Two CLA isomers (c9, t11, t10, c12) significantly reduced tumor incidence and cell proliferation by reducing the protein expression of COX-2 and PKC, and the level of TXB$_2$, PGE$_2$, and DAG in colonic mucosa. However, there was no significant difference in anti-carcinogenic effect between c9t11-CLA and t10c12-CLA.

The interaction of para-halogenated benzoic acid isomers with the micellar system of tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide was studied by the UV/Vis spectrophotometric method. The solubilization constants ($K_s$) of benzoic acid isomers into the micellar system of TTAB and the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of TTAB have been measured with the change of temperature. Various thermodynamic parameters have been calculated and analyzed from those measurement. The results show that the values of ${\Delta}G^{\circ}{_s}$ for the solubilization of all isomers are negative and the values of ${\Delta}H^{\circ}{_s}$ and ${\Delta}S^{\circ}{_s}$ are all positive within the measured temperature range. The effects of additives (n-butanol and NaCl) on the solubilization of benzoic acid isomers have been also measured. There was a great decrease on the values of $K_s$ and CMC simultaneously with these additives. From these changes we can postulate that the solubilization sites of each isomers in the TTAB micellar system are the surface or the palisade region of the micelle.
