The concentration of vanyl-mandelic acid is analysed in the urine collected within 24 hours from normal subjects, from those with painful ischemic cardiopathy, infarction and post-infarction sequelae. Statistically significant results have been obtained only in infarction patients. The study of the concentration of vanyl-mandelic acid by age decades points to the increase of average values throughout life.
Crystals of the title complex, C(3)H(7)NO(2).C(8)H(8)O(3).0.5H(2)O, were obtained from an aqueous solution containing racemic mandelic acid and (S)-alanine. The unit cell includes two independent molecular complexes and one water molecule. The structure formed by (R)-mandelic acid and (S)-alanine in a 1:1 molar ratio shows the successful optical separation of racemic mandelic acid. Strong hydrogen bonding, with a rather short O...O separation of 2.494 (3) A, is observed between the carboxyl and carboxylate groups. A structural comparison suggests that the strong hydrogen bonding affects the neighbouring covalent bond.
11C-Labeled HCN was collected in water containing carrier KCN following bombardment of 99% N2-1% H2 with 22 MeV protons. 11C-Labeled mandelonitrile and p-methoxy-, p-hydroxy-, and 3,4-dihydroxymandelonitrile were synthesized from K11CN and the corresponding benzaldehyde. The initial distribution of 11C activity of these nitriles in dogs was primarily in the region of the heart, liver, and kidneys followed by rapid redistribution to the parotids and stomach with [11C]hydroxymandelonitriles. 11C-Labeled mandelic acid and m-methyl-, o-chloro-, and p-chloromandelic acid were synthesized from the corresponding [11C]mandelonitrile. Serial scintigraphy of 11C activity of these mandelic acids in dogs showed progressive renal excretion with accumulation of activity in the bladder. 11C-Labeled ethyl and benzyl mandelate were synthesized from [11CA]mandelic acid. These esters showed initial accumulation of activity in the lungs with eventual excretion by the kidneys.
Cyclandelate, a vasoactive substance consisting of the mandelic acid ester of 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexanol, was administered to 10 patients with cerebrovascular and/or peripheral vascular disease. Blood specimens were collected at 1-6 h after oral administration of 1600 mg cyclandelate, and the ester and acid were extracted from plasma in acid medium using n-hexane/isopropyl alcohol. The concentrations were determined by a high-performance liquid chromatography isocratic system. The highest plasma cyclandelate concentrations were detected at the third hour, whereas plasma mandelic acid concentrations were still increasing 6 h after administration.
Novel chiral bisbinaphthyl compounds have been synthesized for the enantioselective fluorescent recognition of mandelic acid. By introducing dendritic branches to the chiral receptor unit, the fluorescence signals of the receptors are significantly amplified because of the light-harvesting effect of the dendritic structure. This has greatly increased the sensitivity of the sensors in the fluorescent recognition. Study of the three generation sensors demonstrates that the generation zero sensor is the best choice for the recognition of mandelic acid because of its greatly increased fluorescence signal over the core and its high enantioselectivity. This sensor is potentially useful for the high throughput screening of chiral catalysts for the asymmetric synthesis of alpha-hydroxycarboxylic acids.
Dichlorotetrafluoroacetone has been used to prepare 4-substituted 2-bis (chlorodifluoromethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-5-one derivatives of mandelic acids which were found to be suitable for the analysis of these compounds by gas chromatography-negative-ion chemical ionisation mass spectrometry (GC-NICIMS). The high specificity of the derivatising agent facilitates the identification and quantitation of small amounts of mandelic acids in complex biological matrices. The derivatisation procedure was used to determine the concentrations of m- and p-hydroxymandelic acids and vanillylmandelic acid in to the urine of normal subjects. The method may also have application in the determination of isomeric phenylethylene glycols, the corresponding products of reductive metabolism of biogenic amines.
The reference material was prepared by freeze-drying pooled urine samples obtained from healthy persons occupationally exposed to styrene. The concentrations of mandelic acid (MA), phenylglyoxylic acid (PGA), and hippuric acid (HA) in urine were determined by three modes of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). For isochronous stability testing the urinary mandelic acid and phenylglyoxylic acid concentrations were followed over a 24-month period for a preliminary batch by use of HPLC. No changes of the concentration values were found. The creatinine concentration was stable for more than five years. Standard Reference Material NIST 914a Creatinine was used for traceability purposes for creatinine. Pure chemicals MA and PGA were used for traceability purposes. Control material ClinChek-Urine Control (Recipe) was analyzed simultaneously. The mean values of MA and PGA compare well with the means and fall within the control range of control samples. Results from homogeneity, stability, and traceability testing were evaluated using the statistical program ANOVA. The certified values and their uncertainties were evaluated from the results of interlaboratory comparisons, and homogeneity and stability tests. The values are unweighed arithmetical averages of accepted results and their uncertainties are combined uncertainties (coverage factor=1).
A simple and accurate method for determining 3-methoxy 4-hydroxy mandelic acid in urine is described. The amounts excreted in urine in 24 hours by nine normal subjects and three patients with phaeochromocytoma have been determined.
A series of glycolic and mandelic acid derivatives was synthesized and investigated for their factor Xa inhibitory activity. These analogues are highly potent and selective inhibitors against fXa. In a rabbit deep vein thrombosis model, compound 26 showed significant antithrombotic effects (81% inhibition of thrombus formation) at 1.1 microM plasma concentration following intravenous administration.

The determination of benzoic, 3- and 4-methylbenzoic, and mandelic acids in urine by gas chromatography (G.C.) is presented. The analytical procedure includes: addition of internal standard (beta-naphthol), alkaline hydrolysis, ethyl ether extraction, evaporation of the solvent, and silylation of acids with Silyl-8 in pyridine (1:1). The results are calculated from ratios of the internal standard and determined metabolites peak surface areas. The coefficient of variation of the method in determination of mentioned acids is +/- 8%.

The bonding of mandelic acid enantiomers has been studied on benzene-leucine, dinitrobenzene-leucine and dinitrobenzene-phenylalanine type chiral stationary phases connected to zeolite A supports. The pi-donor, pi-acceptor and H-bonding interactions responsible for diastereomer pair formations can be studied under quasi in situ chromatographic conditions by Fourier transform Raman and surface enhanced Raman spectroscopic techniques. Structural differences between diastereomer pairs result in observable spectral differences at a phase load of approx. 50%. It was shown that the decreasing pi-acceptor character of the phase is associated with its increasing capability of H-bond formation. Correlating spectral data to chromatographic results it can be concluded that, in addition to H-bonding as well as to pi-donor-pi-acceptor interactions, steric hindrances due to bulky moieties of either the stationary phase or the analyte molecules are of importance in successful separations.

A screening method is described for urinary 3-methoxy-4-hydroxy mandelic acid using an initial ion exchange procedure, vanillin formation and extraction into toluene. The technique, is simple, rapid and specific, with a reference value up to 35 mumol (7.0 mg)/day established on 92 normal human subjects. Over 200 patients' urines were analysed by the method of which 18 gave values above the reference range. The majority of these increased excretions are attributed to the metabolic effects of drugs, one patient suffered from phaeochromocytoma and only 2 results remaining unexplained.
