Performing transport experiments with Caco-2 monolayers some important parameters have to be considered. Cell layers are appropriate for transport studies after complete polarisation and differentiation. Consequently they should be used 20 - 25d after seeding. Monolayers grown for shorter time than 20d yield to high transport rates, a cultivation period longer than 25d results in layers susceptible to detachment. Additionally the material of the filter support exerts an influence on the transport data because of varying barrier functions of cell layers grown on polyester- versus polycarbonate filter inserts. By comparison of transport rates obtained with different model systems such as Transwells and Ussing chambers the influence of the unstirred water layer on permeation of markers was investigated. The results indicate that there is a noticeable difference with hydrophobic compounds only. To check the dependence of transport phenomena on energy the difference in transport rates between 4°C and 37°C as well as the cumulative transport subject to the transport direction was determined. Moreover the influence of the stirring rate on the cumulative transport in the Ussing chamber system was elucidated. For assessment of the cell associated amount of the transported substance the cell layer was dissolved in NaOH / SDS to get further valuable informations.

The essential oil of the spice plant Ocimum basilicum L. (Lamiaceae) from Bulgaria was investigated using gas chromatographic-spectroscopic (GC/FID and GC/MS: polar, non-polar and chiral phases of GC columns) and olfactoric methods. As main compounds of this basil oil sample (R)-(-)-linalool (71.4%), (Z,E)-α-farnesene (6.5%), 1,8-cineole (5.6%), τ-cadinol (2.8%), germacrene D (1.7%), citronellol (1.2%) and bornyl acetate (1.1%) were identified. Ths results show, that the essential basil oil from Bulgaria belongs to the European linalool chemotype. The correlations of olfactoric data (qualitative and quantitative) with the presented analytical ones certificate the good quality of this Bulgarian Ocimum basilicum sample. A possible use of this essential basil oil in medicine, perfumery and foods is discussed.

Ten saponins have been isolated from the deacylated saponin mixture of Bellis perennis L. The structures of these saponins can be divided into two groups that show differences both in the aglycone and the carbohydrate moieties bound at C-28. The first group consists of glycosides of polygalacic acid with tri- or tetrasaccharide moieties consisting mainly of deoxyhexoses and a second group of glycosides of bayogenin or asterogenic acid which possess glucose as major carbohydrate moiety and one xylose or rharnnose unit. From the most polar fraction of the alkaline hydrolysate obtained from the underground parts of Bellis perennis one saponin possessing only glucose residues has been obtained. On the basis of a sugar methylation analysis and NMR spectral data, the structure was established as 3-O-ß-D-glucopyranosyl-2ß,3ß,23-trihydroxyolean-12-en-28-oic acid 28-O-ß-D-glucoyranosyl-(1→2)-[ß-D-glucopyranosyl(1→6)]-ß-D-glucopyranoside.

Some new derivatives of 2-amino-5- and 6-(5-aryl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-3-yl)benzothiazole were synthesized from the corresponding aminophenyl compounds by reaction with KSCN/Br2 to build up the benzothiazole ring. The aminophenyl derivatives of pyrazoline were prepared by cyclization with phenylhydrazine of the appropriate 1,3-diphenyl-2-propen-1-one derivatives obtained from arninoacetophenone and differently substituted aldehydes. However, the newly synthesized 2-aminobenzothiazole derivatives of pyrazoline were subjected to cyclization with ethyl brornopyruvate to afford the formation of 6- and 7-(5-aryl-1 -phenyl-2-pyrazolin-3 -yl)-2-ethoxycarbonylimidazo[2,1-b]benzothiazole derivatives. Furthermore, dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) was used as another cyclizing agent for 2-aminobenzothiazole derivatives to obtain 7- and 8-(5-aryl-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-3-y1)-4-methoxycarbonyl-2-oxo-2H-pyrimido[2,1-b]benzothiazole derivatives. The newly prepared compounds were screened for their anticonwlsant activities. However, some of the tested compounds manifested good anticonvulsant potencies.

The starting materials, 2-amino-3-cyano-4-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-4H-pyran0[3,2-hlquinoline 1 and ethyl-2-amino-4-(3,4,5-trimethoxyphenyl)-4H-pyrano [3,2-hlquinolin-3-carboxylate 2 were synthesised from 8-hydroxyquinoline and a-cyano-3,4,5-trimethoxycinnamonitrileand/or ethyl-a-cyano-3,4,5-trimethoxy-cinnamatre respectively. In order to construct a third heterocyclic ring 1 and 2were condensed with ethyl bromoacetate, formarnide, carbon disulfide to afford pyrrolo-, pyrimido- and thiazinopyranoquinolines 3-6respectively. The S-alkylated products 7 and 8 were obtained by the effect of chloroacetonitrile and/or ethyl chloroacetate on thiazinopyranoquinoline derivative 6. The attempt of cyanomethylation of the amino functional group of 1 to yield 10 with chloroacetonitrile in AcOHIAcONa failed and instead, pyridopyranoquinoline derivative 9 was obtained which is visualized to occur via cyclization of the initially formed acetylarnino derivative by nucleophilic attack on the cyano group. Acetylation of 1 and 2 with acetic anhydride afforded the mono- and di-acetyl derivatives 11a and 11b respectively. A plausible explanation to form the mono-derivative with 1 and the di-derivative with 2 is the higher deactivating effect of the cyano function over that of the carboxyethyl group. Furoylation of 1 and 2 was achieved by furoyl chloride to give 12a and 12b respectively. The structural features of pyranoquinoline 2 were inferred from its microanalysis and spectral data such as IR,1H-NMR and MS as well as its chemical reactions, as a bifunctional compound with carbon nucleophiles namely, phenyl isothiocyanate and nitrogen nucleophilic species namely, p-toluidine, benzylamine, aniline and hydrazine hydrate to give pyrimidopyranoquinoline derivative 13, carboxamides 14a-c and carboxyhydrazide 15 respectively. When the hydrazide 15 was treated with carbon disulfide inpresence of KOH, it afforded the potassium salt 16 which was submitted to react with hydrazine hydrate at room temperature to give 17. The hydrazido group of 15was utilized to construct heterocyclic moieties attached to postion-3 of the pyranoquinoline structure. Thus, the reaction of the carboxyhydrazide15 with phenyl isothiocyanate, acetylacetone, and benzoylacetone resulted in the formation of 18, 19a and 19b respectively. Ethyl carbazate as a typical mesophile reacted with 2 to afford a fused tetracyclic product triazepinopyranoquinoline 20 via cyclization of the initially formed hydrazide. Among sixteen compounds screened against E. coli and S. aureus respectively,compounds 2 and 14c show a high order of antibacterial activity against both bacteria. 12b is strongly potent against Staphylococcus aureus.

The title compound was prepared by Hg(II)-edta dehydrogenation of the aminoalkohol 2 via the benzoxazine 4, which reacted with methylmagnesiumiodide to 6. This compound shows in the NMR spectrum atropisomerism for the restricted rotation of the piperidine moiety about the aryl-C-N bond. The dehydrogenation of 6 stopped after a two electron withdrawal generating the benzoxazine 7, because the angular hydrogen atom occupies an equatorial position, which prevents stereoelectronic conditions for a further oxidation.
