Investigation of isoprenoid benzoates and naphthoates by reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Isocratic elution characteristics of benzoates and naphthoates of C5-C20 terpenoid alcohols.

Conditions for derivatization of C5-C20 isoprenoid alcohols and the reversed-phase liquid chromatographic properties of the corresponding benzoate and naphthoate esters are described. A non-linear response of log k' to changes in the composition of the mobile phase was observed on a Radial-Pak C18 column. In general, the capacity factors (k') increased with increases in carbon content and degree of saturation in the hydrocarbon chain, and decreased with increases in branching and Z double bond content. Replacement of a single hydrogen in the methyl group at C-3 of geranyl benzoate with fluorine had little effect on k', while the difluoro- and trifuoromethyl derivatives showed regular increases in k'. The large extinction coefficients of the aromatic ester moieties, especially the 2-naphthoates, provide high sensitivity for UV detection.

Temperature-dependent photoelectron spectroscopy of methyl benzoate anions: observation of steric effect in o-methyl benzoate.

Temperature-dependent photoelectron spectra of benzoate anion (C6H5CO2(-)) and its three methyl-substituted isomers (o-, m-, p-CH3C6H4CO2(-)) have been obtained using a newly developed low-temperature photoelectron spectroscopy apparatus that features an electrospray source and a cryogenically controlled ion trap. Detachment channels due to removing electrons from the carboxylate group and benzene ring pi electrons were distinctly observed. Well-resolved vibrational structures were obtained in the lower binding energy region due to the OCO bending modes, except for o-CH3C6H4CO2(-), which yielded broad spectra even at the lowest ion trap temperature (18 K). Theoretical calculations revealed a large geometry change in the OCO angles between the anion and neutral ground states, consistent with the broad ground-state bands observed for all species. A strong steric effect was observed between the carboxylate and the methyl group in o-CH3C6H4CO2(-), such that the -CO2(-) group is pushed out of the plane of the benzene ring by approximately 25 degrees and its internal rotational barrier is significantly reduced. The low rotational barrier in o-CH3C6H4CO2(-), which makes it very difficult to be cooled vibrationally, and the strong coupling between the OCO bending and CO2 torsional modes yielded the broad PES spectra for this isomer. It is shown that there is no C-H...O hydrogen bond in o-CH3C6H4CO2(-), and the interaction between the carboxylate and methyl groups in this anion is found to be repulsive in nature.

Induction of sexual receptivity by oestradiol benzoate in cyclic female rats: influence of ovarian secretions before injection of oestradiol benzoate.

The ability of cyclic female rats to show sexual receptivity 24 h after an injection of 2 microgram oestradiol benzoate (OB) was lost 24 h after ovariectomy. Exposure of cyclic rats to antioestrogen (nitromophene monocitrate) implants 24 h before ovariectomy and OB treatment prevented the latter from inducing sexual receptivity within 24 h of administration. Treatment of ovariectomized rats with constant release implants filled with an oil solution of 15 microgram oestradiol/ml had no behavioural effect in itself, but prepared the rats to show lordosis 24 h after administration of OB. Progesterone treatment (4 mg) induced sexual behaviour in cyclic rats on days other than that of the oestrous cycle when the rats are normally receptive. Evidence is presented that a lower level of oestradiol stimulation than that present duing pro-oestrus was needed for the induction of sexual receptivity in ovariectomized rats. It is suggested that the low basal level of oestradiol which was present throughout the oestrous cycle was necessary for the induction of sexual receptivity and that an increase in oestradial stimulation served to increase the behavioural sensitivity to progesterone.

The anti-inflammatory activity and the other pharmacological properties of MS-1112, a new steroid compound, were examined and compared with other glucocorticoid analogues such as hydrocortisone acetate (Hydr), betamethasone 17-valerate (Val) and dexamethasone (Dexa). Systemically administered MS-1112 and glucocorticoids had a significant effect in inhibiting rat paw edema induced by various phlogistic stimulations and increasing vascular permeabilities and granuloma formation by cotton pellet or granuloma pouch. The order of those inhibiting activity was, in general, Dexa greater than MS-1112 greater than Val greater than Hydr. Concomitantly, Xthymolysis and adrenal weight suppression and reduced rate of body weight gain after multiple systemical administration were also observed. Locally administered MS-1112 caused an inhibiting activity, without systemic side-effects. This activity was approximately 3 to 5 times more potent than that of Dexa in rat carrageenin paw edema and cotton pellet granuloma. MS-1112 was less active than Dexa in glycogen liver deposition activity and in the depression of plasma level of corticosterone but more active than Val and Hydr. In the dose administered, MS-1112 had neither androgenic and anabolic nor estrogenic and anti-estrogenic activity. From this data, it concluded that MS-1112 is a very potent agent applicable regarding permeability and retention of steroids in a local site.

The anti-inflammatory activity of MS-1112, a new steroid compound, after topical application and systemical administration was examined by means of delayed-type hypersensitivity in mice and compared with other glucocorticoid analogues, betamethasone-17-valerate (Val), dexamethasone (Dexa) and betamethasone (Beta). In the case of pretreatment and therapeutic effect, topically applied MS-1112 was most active in inhibiting the delayed-type hypersensitivity induced by picryl chloride. The order of those inhibitory activities of MS-1112 and Val was ointment greater than cream greater than gel. In contrast to MS-1112 and Val, inhibitory action of Dexa was slow in onset after the topical application. It appears that esterification of the 17-hydroxyl group increases the anti-inflammatory activity after topical application. While systemically administered, MS-1112 was more potent than Val, and similarly potent to Beta, but less active than Dexa. From the above results, it may be considered that topically applied MS-1112 is superior to other glucocorticoids in the percutaneous penetration and retention in the skin. MS-1112 is thus considered to be a very potent agent as a dermatocorticoid.
