Abstract
Five alkaloids were isolated from the epigeal part of Oxytropis myriophylla. Three alkaloids were identified as N-benzoyl-β-phenylethylamine, N-trans-cinnamoyl-β-phenylethylamine, N-cis-cinnamoyl-β-phenylethylamine and the structures of two new alkaloids were elucidated to be N-benzoyl-β-hydroxyphenylethylarnine(2), N-trans-cinnamoyl-β-hydroxy-phenylethylamine
(5). The absolu.te structures were established by modified Mosher method. Full article

A simple, rapid and accurate potentiolnetric method is described for tlie
determination of Os(VIII) in tlie co~icentrationr ange 0.4-4.0 mg/ml. Tlie method is
based on tlie addition of hydralazine hydrochloride to Os(VIII) to reduce it to Os
(IV). The excess of hydralazine hydrocliloridew as oxidized by iodine dissolved ill acetic acid. The liberated iodide was then potentiometrically titrated against mercury(II) using silver amalgam as the indicator electrode. The potential of this method for sime- microdetermination is important in practical applications where tlie above reaction should proceed quantitatively towards completion.

The synthesis of thiolactime 4 and first studies on the syntheses of other thiolactimes with different substituted thieno[2,3-b][1,4]thiazine moieties are described as well as the syntheses of structurally modified amidines 10 - 14 with the same basic structure. The thieno[2,3-b][1,4]thiazine derivatives were prepared by reacting methyl 5-chloro-4-nitro-2-thiophencarboxylate with ethyl thioglycolate followed by reductive cyclisation to 6, which was either first saponified and then treated with Lawesson reagent to obtain thiolactame 8 or directly reacted to thiolactame 9. Reaction of 9 with various amines led to the desired products 10 - 14. which will undergo pharmacological testing on NO synthase inhibiting activities. Full article

Photodegradation of meloxicam is studied placing special emphasis on the investigation of the correlation between the sample concentration and the stability. For quantitation a HPTLC assay was developed. The stability indicating capability ofthe assay is proved using a sampie solution exposed to artificial irradiation from a xenon source, the peak of meloxicam was weil separated from all
degradation products. For quantitation external calibration is employed. Sample solutions of meloxicam of three different concentrations (2 mg ml-1; 250 μg ml-1 ; 40 μg ml-1) are subjected to simulated sunlight and tested for stability. Full article

Capillary electrophoresis is a versatile analytical technique for the determination of a very widespread range of compounds. Many applications for the separation of different pharmaceuticals, ions, herbicides and biomolecules such as DNA, proteins and peptides have been published over the last decade. A comparatively new field is the separation and determination of carbohydrates by
capillary electrophoresis, especially the assignment of absolute configuration. These methods will also gain importance in the field of pharmaceutical carbohydrate analysis. In this review a short overview ofthe different methods and separation procedures is given and some applications for the separation of sugar enantiomers are described in more detail. Full article

The cytoprotective agent amifostine (AMI) is capable to protect healthy cells (contrary to tumor cells) due to higher activity of alkaline phosphatase at the membrane site of normal cells. In seven clinical trials the influence of AMI on the pharmacokinetics of different cytostatics was investigated. Preadministration of AMI increased Cmax of doxorubicin (+ 44 %, p < 0.06), epirubicin (+ 31 %, P < 0.08), mitomycin C (+ 41 %, p < 0.01) and docetaxel (+ 31 % and + 17 %, not significant). In contrary, the peak concentration of pirarubicin , the tetrahydropyranyl-prodrug of doxorubicin was decreased (- 50 %, P < 0.03), leading to an equal higher concentration
of doxorubicin in the blood . In accordance to the peak concentrations, the AUC'ast was increased by chemoprotection: doxorubicin + 53 % (p < 0.01) and epirubicin + 23 % (not significant), docetaxel + 25 % and + 31 % (not significant). AUC'ast of mitomycin C and paclitaxel seemed to be unaffected by preadministered AMI. A particular inhibition of the protein binding by AMI has been identified as one reason for higher serum concentrations of anthracycline drugs. After cytoprotection, a possible increase of the cytostatic's Serum concentrations should be taken into account for optimal dosage schedules. Full article

The structure was deduced from the MS and the NMR spectra of 2 with the help of comparisons with corresponding spectra of amiloride (1) and reference substances 3 - 5. The agreement of all relevant data of the product and of authentical oxadiazolylpyrazine 2 as weil as the accomplished X-ray analysis confirmed the postulated structure.

The combination of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibition and retinoid activity in one molecule could be a suitable too1 for the topical psoriasis therapy. The anellation of the 5-LOX inhibitor 1 with the tetramethylcyclohexane moity to the arotinoid structure 2 does not fullfil this expectation. This compound was not able to differentiate HL-60 cells to granulocytes. The exchange of the 3,5-di-tertbutyl-
4-hydroxyphenyl substituent by benzoic acid and the synthesis of 8 resulted in the loss of 5-LOX inhibition also. The construction of 10 by the introduction of an azo spacer between the anthraquinone moity and benzoic acid of 8 finally led to the expected compound: 10 was potent 5-LOX inhibitor and concomitant differentiated HL-60 cells as measured by the NBT test.
