4,5-DIHYDRONAPHTHO [1,2-b] THIOPHENE DERIVATIVE

A 4,5-dihydronaphtho[1,2-b]thiophene derivative expressed by the formula: (wherein R1 is a C1 to C10 1-hydroxyalkyl group or a C1 to C10 acyl group, and R2 and R3 separately substitute in the 6-, 7-, 8-, or 9-positions, and are each independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C1 to C10 alkyl group, a hydroxy group, a C1 to C10 alkoxy group, a C1 to C5 alkenyloxy group, a C1 to C5 alkynyloxy group, a benzyloxy group, or the like, provided that when R1 is an acyl group and R2 is a hydrogen atom, then R3 is neither a hydrogen atom nor an acetyl group), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. This is a novel compound that is effective in reducing triglyceride levels in the liver and reducing blood glucose levels.

Hydrocarbon humps in the marine environment: Synthesis, toxicity, and aqueous solubility of monoaromatic compounds

A recent study has shown that some monoaromatic hydrocarbon constituents of the so-called unresolved complex mixtures (UCMs) or gas chromatographic humps, which are widespread in the marine environment, are toxic to the mussel Mytilus edulis. Here we describe the synthesis and toxicological assessment of 6-cyclohexyltetralin, 7-cyclohexyl-1-methyltetralin, and 7-cyclohexyl-1-n-propyltetralin, which contain structural features consistent with some monoaromatic UCM hydrocarbons. The compounds were all toxic to M. edulis when measured in the assay used previously to determine the toxicity of a monoaromatic UCM. The aqueous solubilities of the hydrocarbons in fresh and seawater at different temperatures were determined and found to range from about 10 to 110 μg/L (10-60 μg/L in seawater at 15°C). Further studies of the aromatic UCM composition of a wide range of oils and oil residues are required to determine whether such alkylated compounds as 7-cyclohexyl-1-methyltetralin and 7-cyclohexyl-1-n-propyltetralin or their analogues are widespread in oils. If these aromatic compounds prove to be important in UCMs, toxicity experiments should be conducted with other biological end points and monitoring studies of pollutant hydrocarbons should probably include measurement of aromatic UCM hydrocarbons.
