The rate constants for the addition reaction of thiourea to nitrone derivatives were determind at various pH and reaction rate equation which could be applied over a wide pH were obtained. The substituent effects and general base catalysis for the addition of thiourea to nitrone derivatives were observed. On the basis of these findings, a plausible reaction mechanism for the nucleophilic addition of thiourea to nitrone was proposed.

Lipoic acid (LA) is a multifunctional antioxidant against a variety of ROS. Nitrone acts as free radical spin trap and exhibits neuroprotective activity. Thus, LA-nitrone derivatives (6, 7, 8, and 9) were synthesized and screened as an antioxidant and inhibitors for cholinesterases. Even though the antioxidant effect of LA-nitrone derivatives was not improved, they turned out to be effective inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) in μM range.

The nitrone-based free radical trapping reagent, $\alpha$-phenyl-n-tert-butyl nitrone (PBN) has been proposed as therapeutic agent for stroke. We used this for model drug of development of new drug for neuroprotection. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability of PBN in Sprague-Dawly (SD) rats. The BBB transport of PBN was investigated in SD rats using internal carotid artery perfusion (ICAP) method at a rate of 4 mι/min for 15 second. We also obtained pharmacokinetic parameters of PBN using single intravenous injection technique. When we estimated BBB permeability of PBN with ICAP method, the brain volume of distribution of PBN was 60.0 $\pm$ 12.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/ι. The brain uptake of PBN after IV injection at 120 min was 0.15 $\pm$ 0.01%ID/g. The PBN was transported to the brain through the BBB well in rats, because PBN is small molecule (MW 177) and lipid-soluble (log P 1.23) compound.

Compounds containing a nitrone moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated as a new type of active site zinc ligating substrate analog inhibitors for carboxypeptidase A. The kinetic results indicated that they are competitive inhibitors for the enzyme, supporting the design rationale that the oxygen of the nitrone forms a coordinative bond to the active site zinc ion. The present study demonstrates that nitrone is useful as a zinc coordinating ligand in the design of inhibitors for zinc containing proteolytic enzymes.

Regioselective perfluorinated [3+2] cycloadducts and 1,2-adducts have been prepared by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between benzaldoxime NH-nitrone and perfluorinated alkene, perfluoro-2-methyl-2-pentene. Although the cycloaddition reaction is carried out at room temperature, the corresponding perfluorinated compounds are effectively produced in a high yield. In particular, the methoxy-substituted adducts (4 and 7a) show the self-assembled structure by intermolecular interactions. These derivatives were characterized by IR, $^1H$ and $^{19}F$ NMR, and the absolute structure of perfluorinated adducts was confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

We have investigated the transport characteristics of synthetic antioxidant and free radical scavenger, $\alpha$-phenyl-n-tert-butyl nitrone (PBN) at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) by in vitro uptake study in conditionally immortalized rat brain capillary endothelial cell line (TR-BBB). Also, the efflux of PBN from brain to blood is estimated using the brain efflux index (BEI) method. Choline is a charged organic cation, including nitrogen-methyl group and shows the carrier-mediated distribution to the brain. [$^3$H]Choline uptake by TR-BBB cells was significantly inhibited by PBN with $IC_{50}$/ of 1.2 mM, which appears to be due to similar structures between choline and PBN. And, PBN was microinjected into Par2 of the rat brain by BEI method, and was eliminated from the brain with an apparent elimination half-life of about 2 min. Also, [$^3$H]choline efflux was significantly inhibited by PBN using BEI method. In conclusion, the efflux transport of PBN takes place across the BBB and PBN may be transported into the brain and eliminated from the brain by BBB choline transporter.

2,4,6-Triamino-5-nitrosopyrimidine was prepared using malononitrile and guanidine carbonate, and acetylated refluxing in acetic acid with acetic anhydride in order to activate the nitroso group for nucleophilic attack. Nucleophilic attack of phenylpyrimidium bromide on the nitroso group of 2,4,6-triacetamido-5-nitrosopyrimidine gave the intermediate, which lost pyrdidine to give the nitrone derivative. Addition of the methanethiol anion to nitrone gave 2,4-diacetamido-7-phenyl-6-methylthiopteridine which was hydrolyzed to give 2,4-diamino-7-phenyl-6-methylthiopteridine. Spectral data (IR, M.S, NMR) were provided to identify the reaction products during synthesis.

${\alpha}$-(n-butyl)-N-phenylnitrone 유도체들의 가수분해 반응속도상수를 $25^{\circ}C$의 수용액에서 자외선 분광광도법으로 측정하여 넓은 pH 범위에서 잘 맞는 반응속도식을 구하였다. 반응속도식, 가수분해 생성물, 일반염기(general base) 및 치환기 효과 등의 결과로부터 가수분해 반응메카니즘을 제안하였다. 즉, pH 4.5이하에서의 가수분해는 양성자가 첨가된 nitrone의 ${\alpha}$-탄소에 물분자의 공격에 의해 진행되며, pH 10.0 이상에서는 ${\alpha}$-탄소에 히드록시 이온의 직접 첨가에 의하여 가수분해가 진행된다. pH 4.5∼10.0에서는 nitrone에 물분자가 첨가되는 것이 속도결정단계임을 알았다.

Syntheses of carbapenam skeletons were achieved from 3-benzyloxypropanal through 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. 3-Benzyloxypropanal was reacted with N-hydroxyglycine ester to give C-(2-benzyloxyethyl)-N-alkoxycarbonylmethylnitrone (6). 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of the nitrone with ethyl crotonate gave 3-(2-benzyloxyethyl)isoxazolidine (7). Compound 7 was transformed to 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-azetidinone (11). Compound 11 was converted to 4-(2-iodoethyl)-2-azetidinone (13) or 4-phenylthiocarbonylmethyl-2-azetidinone (16) which was cyclized to give 6-(1-hydroxyethyl)carbapenam-3-carboxylate (14, 17).

In the present study, we have characterized the choline transport system and examined the influence of various amine drugs on the choline transporter using a conditionally immortalized rat brain capillary endothelial cell line (TR-BBB) in vitro. The cell-to-medium (C/M) ratio of $[^3{H}]choline$ in TR-BBB cells increased time-dependently. The initial uptake rate of $[^3{H}]choline$ was concentration-dependent with a Michaelis-Menten value, $K_{m}$, of $26.2\pm2.7{\mu}M$. The $[^3{H}]choline$ uptake into TR-BBB was $Na^{+}-independent$, but was membrane potential-dependent. The $[^3{H}]choline$ uptake was susceptible to inhibition by hemicholinium-3, and tetraethy-lammonium (TEA), which are organic cation transporter substrates. Also, the uptake of $[^3{H}]choline$ was competitively inhibited with $K_{i}$ values of $274 {\mu}M, 251 {\mu}M and 180 {\mu}M$ in the presence of donepezil hydrochloride, tacrine and $\alpha-phenyl-n-tert-butyl nitrone$ (PBN), respectively. These characteristics of choline transport are consistent with those of the organic cation transporter (OCT). OCT2 mRNA was expressed in TR-BBB cells, while the expression of OCT3 or choline transporter (CHT) was not detected. Accordingly, these results suggest that OCT2 is a candidate for choline transport at the BBB and may influence the BBB permeability of amine drugs.
