The mutagenic activation of tryptophan pyrolysis products, Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2, was studied in a Salmonella TA98/hepatocyte mutagenesis assay. Adult rat hepatocytes in primary culture were either untreated or induced by the addition of Aroclor 1254 (2 micrograms/ml) 18-20 h before the mutagenesis test which was performed at day 1 and at day 2 after the isolation of hepatocytes. The mutagenic activation of Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2 was studied as a function of the time of incubation and of the concentration of chemical. Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2 incubated for 20 min in the presence of untreated hepatocytes and bacteria gave rise to a weak number of revertants which doubled the level of spontaneous mutants. Aroclor-induced hepatocytes became highly competent in mutagenic activation of tryptophan pyrolysis products and the induction ratio reached 4.9 and 7.1 for Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2, respectively, after 60 min of incubation, on day 2 of the experiment. It should be noted that the induction ratio was higher on day 2 than on day 1. When conditions were standardized, i.e. Aroclor-induced hepatocytes on day 2, final concentration of cellular protein about 1 mg/ml, 20 min of incubation, the Salmonella/hepatocyte assay produced a linear concentration-dependent mutagenic response for Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2. By comparing the results obtained with Aroclor-induced hepatocytes and Aroclor-induced liver S9 fraction in the Salmonella test, it could be estimated that hepatocytes were 3 times less active than the S9 fraction with regard to mutagenic activation of both Trp-P-1 and Trp-P-2.

An efficient and modified synthesis of ethyl-4-nitro/5-nitro/6-nitro and 7-nitroindole-2-carboxylates is described. Carbohydrazides of corresponding ethyl nitroindole-2-carboxylates underwent smooth one-step transformation to 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl nitroindoles (4a-l) on reaction with aromatic carboxylic acids in the presence of phosphorus oxychloride. An alternate method to synthesize 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl nitroindoles is also described. Among the newly synthesized 1,3,4-oxadiazolyl nitroindoles, a few compounds are studied for anti-inflammatory activity.

Imine 7 of 1,4-cyclohexanedione mono-ethylene ketal 6 was reacted with maleic anhydride, affording the cyclized adduct 8. Methyl esterification of 8, accompanied by transacetalization, led to the dihydrooxindole derivative 10. Aromatization of 10 was then accomplished with POCl(3), leading directly to the key-intermediate title compound 11 in 74% yield from ketone 6. Serotonin, melatonin, and bufotenin were then obtained by standard reactions.

The title compounds, C(27)H(26)Cl(2)NO(5)PS, (I), and C(27)H(27)BrNO(5)PS, (II), respectively, crystallize in the centrosymmetric space group P2(1)/n with one molecule in the asymmetric unit in each case. The dihedral angle between the benzene and pyrrole rings is 2.1 (1) degrees in (I) and 0.9 (2) degrees in (II). The phenylsulfonyl group is orthogonal to the halophenyl moiety, with a dihedral angle of 82.0 (1) degrees in (I) and 78.7 (2) degrees in (II). In both compounds, the molecular structures and packing are stabilized by C-H...O and C-H...halogen interactions. The intermolecular hydrogen bonds in (I) form cyclic dimers with graph-set descriptors R(2)(1)(10) and R(2)(2)(8) about a 2(1) axis, and those in (II) form a C(2)(2)(20) chain.
