Three inexpensive oxidation reagents, namely pyridinium chlorochromate, chromium trioxide-dipyridine and nicotinium dichromate were utilized for oxidation of carbohydrates in 78-92% yield. Hydration could be eliminated in the oxidation of pentopyranosides and hexopyranosides, while pentofuranosides had a tendency to be easily hydrated during the oxidation. In the carbon-13 n. m. r. study, the carbonyl function resulted from the oxidation affected on the chemical shifts of $\alpha$- and $\beta$-carbons of methyl 3. 4-O-isopropylidene-$\beta$-D-arabinopyranosid-2-ulose (8) and 1,2 : 4, 5-di-O-isopropylidene-$\beta$-D-erythro-2, 3-hexodiulo-2, 6-pyranose (10) to slightly down fields (0.7-2.6 p. p. m.) compared with the chemical shifts before oxidation. While the carbonyl groups of 1. 2-O-isopropylidene-5-O-ethyloxycarbonyl-$\alpha$-D-erythro-pentofuran-3-ulose (4) and methyl 3, 5-0-isopropylidene-$\alpha$-D-threo-pentofuranosid-2-ulose (6) pushed the $\alpha$-carbons to up fields (3, 2-18.3 p. p. m. However, the order of signals on the spectra before and after oxidation remained unaltered.

Flavor components in mash of Takju prepared by different raw materials such as nonglutinous rice, glutinous rice, barley and wheat flour were detected by GC and GC-MS method using non-polar column. Seven alcohols, 15 esters, 10 organic acids, 1 aldehyde, 4 benzenes, 3 phenols, 8 alkans, 2 ketones and 5 others were found in takju after 16 day of fermentation. takju by wheat flour had the most various components of volatile flavor. Treatment with addition starter had less flavor component than that without addition starter in takju by nonglutinous rice. Nine kinds of flavor components including acetic acid ethyl ester, 3- methyl-1-butanol, acetic acid, ethyl benzene, acetic acid 3-methyl butyl ester, 2-phenylethanol, 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methyl phenol. plumbagic acid and 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid dibutyl ester were commonly detected in all the treatments. Especially, 2,4,0-trimethyl-1,3-benzenediamine was isolated in takju that was made of nonglutinous rice without addition starter. Diethyl sulfide, 4-methoxy benzaldehyde, docosane and 2-methyl propyl octadecanoic acid were isolated from takju by nonglutinous rice with addition starter. Propionic acid ethyl ester, acetic acid butyl ester, 2-methyl butane and 3-methyl pentane were isolated from takju glutinous rice. 2-Hydroxy-4-methyl pentanoic acid and 2-methyl tridecane were isolated from akju by barley 3-(Methylthio)-1-propanol. hexanoic acid ethyl ester, butanoic acid monomethyl ester, tridecanoic acid, ethyl tetramethyl cyclopentadiene and 1,5-diaza-2,9-diketocyclotetradecane were isolated from takju by wheat flour.

(Benzotriazol-1-yl)arenesulfonylalkanes, 2a, 2b, 3a and 3b, were prepared by lithiation of 1-(benzotriazol-1-yl)arenesulfonylmethanes followed by reaction with alkyl iodides. Very bulky molecules such as 1,1-di(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1-aryl-1-thiophenoxymethanes 5, 1,1-di(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1-thiophenoxymethane 9a and 1,1-di(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1-dithiophenoxymethane 9b were synthesized. 1,1-Di(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1-benzenesulfoxymethane 10a and 1,1-di(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1-benzenesulfonylmethane 10b were also synthesized by the oxidation of compound 9a, while oxidation of sulfide group on compound 5 and 9b by m-CPBA were not successful. On the other hand, pyrolysis and hydrolysis of 3-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-3-toluenesulfonylpentane 3b gave 3-toluenesulfonyl-2-pentene 11 and diethyl ketone 13a, respectively, which means there are both C-N and C-S bond cleavages.

Methanol extract of dried persimmon leaves was fractionated to hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol, and aqueous tractions. Hexane, butanol, and aqueous fractions had high yields of extracts. Hexane fraction among these fractions showed the highest inhibition rate on the mutagenicities of aflatoxin (AFB$_1$), dimethyl-amino-bi-phenyl (DMAB), N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), and 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (4-NQO) in Salmonella typhimurium TA100. Hexane fraction was further fractionated into eight fractions by silica gel column c-hromatography and thin layer chromatography (TLC). The fraction 5 on TLC exhibited the highest antimutagenic activity on AFB$_1$, DMAB, and MNNC. 1'-oxocannabinol, 3B-acetoxy-17-methyl-5a-18 (13-17) abeoardrost-13-one, 4-methoxy-2'6'-dinitro-3, 5-di-t-butylbiphenyl, 8, 9-dihydro-5, 6-dimethoxy-dibenz ［c, h］isoquino ［2, 1, 8-1 ma］carbazole-11, 16-dione were tentatively identified from this antimutagenic fraction by GC-MS.

Heterocyclic amines (HCAs) are food mutagens and carcinogens that are found in cooked fish, meat, and protein-rich foods. This study examined the inhibitory effect of marinades containing a Nelumbo nucifera leaf fraction on HCA formation in cooked beef steak. As a result of the Ames assay, cooked beef marinated with the N. nucifera leaf butanol fraction (2.0 g) cooked at $190^{\circ}C$ showed a 61.5% reduction in overall mutagenicity. However, these data revealed no significant difference in mutagenicity in the ethanol, ethyl acetate, or water fractions. Formation of MeIQx (2-amino-3,8 dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]-quinoxalin) and PhIP (2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]-pyridine) was inhibited 60.7-63.5%. Cooked beef marinated with the water fraction of the N. nucifera leaf significantly (p<0.05) reduced the formation of MeIQx, PhIP, and DiMeIQx (2-amino-3,4,8 trimethylimidazo[4,5-f]-quinoxaline) by 65.3, 67.6, and 73.9%, respectively. These results show that marinades containing the N. nucifera leaf fraction could be an alternative method for reducing HCA formation in cooked beef steak.

The effects of cooking method, cooking time and various food ingredients on the formation/ inhibition of heterocyclic aromatic amines (HAAs) in pork products were investigated. Three HAAs, 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo [4,5-f] quinoxaline ($MeIQ_x$), 2-amino-3,4,8-trimethylimidazo [4,5-f] quinoxaline ($DiMeIQ_x$) and 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo [4,5-b] pyridine (PhIP) were measured in pork products using solid-phase extraction and HPLC. Pork patties were boiled, oven-broiled and pan-fried to internal temperatures of 71, 77 and $88^{\circ}C$. Generally, HAA concentrations increased with increasing internal temperature, and HAA formation was greatest with pan-fried. Selected food ingredients (vitamin E, sodium nitrite, sodium tripolyphosphate, sodium ascorbate, Nanking cherry tissue and cherry tissue extract) inhibited HAA formation in pork patties fried at $225^{\circ}C$ for 10 min/side, with the greater inhibition provided by cherry tissue and its methanolic extract.

This study was performed to determine the composition of phenolic substances contained in the leaves of Cirsium setidens (Compositae), validate the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method, and determine the in vivo sedative effect of the main component pectolinarin. Six phenolic compounds isolated from C. setidens were spectroscopically identified as chlorogenic acid (1), hyperoside (2), 3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (3), caffeic acid methyl ester (4), linarin (5), and pectolinarin (6) and then used as standard compounds for HPLC analysis. HPLC proved to be precise, accurate, and sensitive for the simultaneous analysis of the phenolic substances. In particular, six compounds showed good regression ($R^2$ > 0.999) within test ranges and recovery was in the range of 95.4 - 104.8%. The content of pectolinarin was considerably higher (156.48 mg/g) than those of other phenolic substances including the other flavone glycoside, linarin (18.99 mg/g). The contents of other phenolic substances, in order, were chlorogenic acid (8.41 mg/g), 3,4-di-O-caffeoylquinic acid (5.74 mg/g), hyperoside (4.33 mg/g), and caffeic acid methyl ester (0.51 mg/g). Oral administration with compound 6 (10 and 20 mg/kg) enhanced the sleeping time induced by pentobarbital in mice, indicating that it has a sedative effect.
