The carpophores of three Korean mushrooms, Coriolus versicolor, Pleurotus ostreatus, and Lentinus edodes were respectively extracted with hot water and the extract were dialyzed through Visking tube. They were found to contain an antinumor activity against sarcoma 180 implanted in mice. The components of these aqueous extracts were found to be polysaccharide and protein by color reactions including anthrone and Lowry-Folin tests. The hydrolysis of the polysaccharide with 3% HCI-MeOH and trimethylsilylation yielded four monosaccharides : glucose, mannose, galactose and xylose which were identified by G. L. C. After hydrolysis of protein with 6N HCL, fourteen to seventeen amino acids including aspartic and glutamic acids were detected by an amino acid analyzer.

3-Amino-2-phenylthietane derivatives were considered as a useful tool to elusidate the mechanism of inhibiton of MAO by tranylcypromine-type inhitors. The synthesis of 3-benzoylamino-2-phenylthieetane, 3-amino-2-phenylthietane, and 3-N, N-dimentylamino-2-p-nitrophenythietane was attempted using the reaction between 1, 3 dihalogeno alkanes with alkali sulfide. When 1-pheny1-1, 3-dihalo-2-benzolaminopropane was treated with sodium sulfide, 2-pheny 1-4 benzylidene-2-oxazoline was isolated, indicating the case of elimination reaction compared to ring formation. The reaction of 1-p-nitropheny1-1, 3-dichloro-2-N, N-dimethylaminopropane with sodium sulfide gave bis (1-p-nitropheny1-2-N, N-dimethylamino-3-chloropropane)sulfide. The mechanism of reaction was discussed.
