Coumarin was pyrolyzed at $500^{\circ}C$ in a stream of nitrogen. The pyrolyzates of coumarin were adsorbed on the activated charcoal and then eluded by carbon disulfide. The eluted pyrolyzates were identified using a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Benzene, toluene, phenylacetylene, styrene, benzofuran and naphthalene were detected from the pyrolyzates of coumarin on the basis of their mass spectra. The pyrolytic mechanism of coumarin was also discussed.

We have developed a one-step synthesis of benzofurans from o-iodophenol and various terminal alkynes, by using Pd catalyst supported on nano-sized carbon balls (NCB) under copper- and ligand free conditions. This recyclable catalyst could be reused more than 5 times in the same heteroannulation reaction. The results have demonstrated that diverse 2-substituted benzofurans with tolerant functional groups can be prepared simply and conveniently under these conditions.

Five acid hydrazides as precolumn fluorescence derivatization reagents for carboxylic acids in HPLC, which have the benzofuran or benzothiazole moiety conjugated to a furan, thiophene or oxazoline ring, were synthesized and examined in view of reactivity, separability and sensitivity. Of these hydrazides, 2-(5-hydrazinocarbonyl-2-oxazolyl)-5,6-dimethoxybenzothiazole (BTOH) was most favorable. The detection limit of lauric acid as a model acid was 0.1 pmol per $10-{\mu}l$ injection volume at S/N=3, which was roughly equal to that of an analogous compound, 2-(5-hydrazinocarbonyl-2-furyl)-5,6-dimethoxybenzothiazole. The reagent allowed rapid assays of carboxylic acids ($C_{12:0}-C_{20:4}$) within 20 min with satisfactory scparability. The method was applied to the determination of fatty acids in human sera from healthy volunteers as well as from patients with diabetes or thyroid dysfunction.

The volatiles formed from the reactions of L-ascorbic acid with L-alanine at 5 different pH (5, 6, 7, 8, or 9) and $140{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr was performed using solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) analysis were identified to be 25 different kinds. The reaction between L-ascorbic acid and L-alanine led mainly to the formation of pyrazines. Many of these were alkylpyrazines, such as 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine, 3,5-diethyl-2-methylpyrazine, methylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-6-methylpyrazine, and 2,3-diethyl-5-methylpyrazine, other compounds identified were furans, phenols, benzoquinones, 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine, and 2-methylbenzoxazole. The studies showed that furans, such as furfural and benzofuran were formed mainly at acidic pH. In contrast, higher pH values could promote the production of pyrazines.

Several 4-cyano-1-benzofuranyl-1-butanone derivatives were synthesized and screened for potential antiinflammatory and analgesic activities. The effect of structural variation of these molecules on biological activities was systematically examined. Among these compounds $V_a,\;V_c\;and\;VI_e$ were found to demonstrate a significant antiinflammatory effect. Compounds $VI_e,\;V_a,\;I_d,\;I_band\;VII_f$ were also significantly effective as analgesic ones.

Imaging distribution of ${\beta}-amyloid$ plaques in Alzheimer's disease is very important for early and accurate diagnosis. Early trial of the ${\beta}-amyloid$ plaques includes using radiolabeled peptides which can be only applied for peripheral ${\beta}-amyloid$ plaques due to limited penetration through the blood brain barrier (BBB). Congo red or Chrysamine G derivatives were labeled with Tc-99m for imaging ${\beta}-amyloid$ plaques of Alzheimer patient's brain without success due to problem with BBB penetration. Thioflavin T derivatives gave breakthrough for ${\beta}-amyloid$ imaging in vivo, and a benzothiazole derivative [C-11]6-OH-BTA-1 brought a great success. Many other benzothiazole, benzoxazole, benzofuran, imidazopyridine, and styrylbenzene derivatives have been labeled with F-18 and I-123 to improve the imaging quality. However, [C-11]6-OH-BTA-1 still remains as the best. However, short half-life of C-11 is a limitation of wide distribution of this agent. So, it is still required to develop an Tc-99m, F-18 or I-123 labeled agent for ${\beta}-amyloid$ imaging agent.

Phytochemical examination of the barks of Pinus densiflora Siebold et Zuccarini has led to the isolation of one phenylpropanoid, one lignan, one flavonoid, one flavan 3-ol and two procyanidins : 4-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-p-coumaric acid (1), 2,3-dihydro-2-(4-methoxy)-7-hydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl-5-(3-hydroxy propyl)-benzofuran 3-O-$\alpha$-D-glucopyranoside (2), taxifolin 3'-O-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (3), (+)-catechin (4), procyanidin B1 (5) and epicatechin-($4{\beta}$-8)-catechin-($4{\alpha}$-8)-catechin (6). Among them, Compound 4, 5 and 6 showed potent anti-oxidative activities and these anti-oxidative activities were significantly different compared with ascorbic acid as positive control.

Stimulation of $\alpha$$_1$-adrenergic receptor ($\alpha$$_1$-AR) by phenylephrine produced a decrease in intracellular N $a^{＋}$ activity ( $a_{Na}$ $^{i}$ ) in multicellular preparations of cardiac tissues. The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in $\alpha$$_1$-adrenergic regulation of $a_{Na}$ $^{i}$ was studied in single ventricular myocyte isolated from guinea pig hearts. $a_{Na}$ $^{i}$ and membrane potential were measured with N $a^{+}$ indicator, sodium-binding benzofuran isophthalate tetraacetoxy methyl ester (SBFI/AM) and microelectrodes respectively when ventricular myocyte was stimulated at 0.3 Hz.(omitted)d)

Styrax japonica Sieb. et Zucc. (Styracaceae) is a deciduous tree growing in Korea, Japan, and China. The pericarps of this plant have been used as a folk medicine for treatment of cough. Jegosaponins, deacyl jegosaponins and benzofurans have been reported from the fruits and seeds of this plant, and these compounds have been shown antisweet and cytotoxic activities. As a part of a research aimed at the discovery of biological active compounds from plant sources, we have studied a chemical constituent of the stem-bark of S. japonica. (omitted)

오래 전부터 성분에 대한 확실한 분석은 없었으나 식용과 약용으로 이용되어 온 소리쟁이(Rumex crisps.)의 항 산화 물질 및 활성에 대해 시험하였다. 항 산화 활성 측정은 DPPH 법과 효소 활성 검사법을 이용하였고, Rumex crispus, Rumex acetoceae와 Rumex nipponicus의 항산화력을 DPPH 법에 의해 측정한 결과 3종류 모두 항산화력이 뿌리>잎>줄기의 순으로 높게 나타났다. 뿌리 추출물에 항산화력은 50% 억제 율이 Rumex crispus ; 6.1 ug/ml, Rumex nippponicus ; 9.8 ug/mL, Rumex acetoceae ; 25.3 ug/mL의 순으로 활성이 높게 나타났다. 잎 추출물 대한 $IC_{50}$/값이 Rumex acetoceae ; 31.5 ug/mL, Rumex nippponicus ; 59.1 ug/mL, Rumex crispus ; 68.8 ug/mL의 순으로 항산화활성이 높게 나타났다. Rumex crispus에서 분리 동정된 주요 페놀성 항 산화 물질은 2, 6-Dichloro-4-nitrophenol, 2-Isopropyl-5-methylphenol은 잎과 뿌리 추출물 모두에서 확인되었고, 4-Vinyl-2-methoxy-phenol과 2, 3-Dihydro-benzofuran 2종은 잎 추출물에서만 동정되었다. 동정된 각 물질의 분자량은 2, 6-Dichloro-4-introphenol ; 206.95, 2-Isopropyl-5-methylphenol ; 150.10, 4-Vinyl-2-methoxy-phenol ; 150.07, 2, 3-Dihydro-benzofuran ; 120.06이 모두 120~206 범위 안에 속하는 低分子化合物質이였다. Rumex crispus의 callus와 생체식물의 효소활성 측정 결과 POD 비활성 (IU/mg protein)은 줄기가 0.44 IU/mg protein으로 높은 활성을 나타내었으나 callus와 잎 부분의 활성은 모두 낮았고, SOD비활성 (IU/mg protein)은 줄기부분이 24.4 IU/mg protein으로 가장 높았다. POD isoenzyme pattern을 분석한 결과 뿌리와 callus에 3개의 isoenzyme, 잎과 줄기 부분에서는 2개의 isoenzyme이 발견되었다. Rumex SOD isoenzyme pattern 분석결과는 뿌리와 Callus에서만 1개의 Isoenzyme 이 나타났다.
