81-23-2 Usage
Description
Dehydrocholic acid is a semisynthetic bile acid, which is made by the oxidation of cholic acid by chromic acid. It can increase the output of bile by the liver and the filling of the gallbladder. Dehydrocholic acid aids the digestion of fats and increases absorption of fat soluble vitamins.
It is used as a gastrointestinal agent that stimulates the flow of bile into the duodenum (cholagogue) or stimulate the production of bile by the liver (choleretic). It is also used as laxative to relief constipation, diuretic, and a diagnostic aid.

Manufacturing Process
A.) Oxidation of cholic acid:A solution, consisting of 15.40 g of cholic acid and 18.75 g of anhydrous
sodium acetate in a solvent mixture of 20 ml of ethyl acetate, 30 ml of glacial
acetic acid, and 30 ml of water, was prepared. This solution was cooled to
20°C. Chlorine gas was bubbled into the solution with vigorous stirring while
the reaction temperature was maintained at 20°C. The chlorine was delivered
at a constant rate of about 2.5 g per hour over a 4-hour period. The total
amount of chlorine gas was 9.80 g which corresponds to about 3.68 moles per
mole of cholic acid, or approximately a 23% excess. The solution temperature
was maintained in the range of 16° to 20°C during the entire addition of
chlorine. Initially the cholic acid solution was very dark-colored. As the
reaction progressed, the solution became pale yellow and a precipitate of
sodium chloride deposited. A considerable amount of product and sodium
chloride precipitated during the latter stages of the reaction so that the final
reaction mixture was a heavy slurry which was difficult to stir. After the
addition of chlorine was complete, the slurry was aged one hour with stirring
at 20°C. The excess chlorine was then discharged by dropwise addition of
10% aqueous sodium sulfite until the solution gave a negative test to starchiodide paper. The semi-crystalline slurry was then diluted with water to raise
the total volume to 225 ml. The water was added dropwise with stirring over
a 1-hour period. The ethyl acetate was then distilled off at 65-88°C. The
resulting crystalline slurry was cooled to below 70°C and filtered through a
sintered-glass funnel of medium porosity. The filter cake was washed until the
filtrate gave a negative halide test with silver nitrate solution and then was
sucked partially dry on the funnel. Drying was completed in a drier at 110°C
for 3 hours. The product was crude pale tan dehydrocholic acid. Yield 14.3
(95%); M.P. 225-231°C.B.) Purification of dehydrocholic acid:To a chromatographic column, packed with 6.67 g of charcoal ("Nuchar C")
with layers of sea sand at either end, 75 ml of acetone was added to wet the
carbon. The column was heated to 40°C, and 25 ml of acetone was drained
off. A solution of 20 g of dry crude dehydrocholic acid in 500 ml of acetone
was poured into a reservoir atop the column and maintained in this reservoir
at 40°C. This solution was then allowed to drop through the column at a
constant rate over a 3-hour period. The column was then washed with 250 ml
of acetone flowing through the column at a constant rate over a 1-hour-period
at 40°C. The column effluent and wash acetone were combined and
concentrated to a residual volume of about 100 ml which resulted in the
formation of a thick slurry. The slurry was cooled with stirring at 0° to 5°C
and aged for 30 min at this temperature. The slurry was filtered and the filter
cake washed with cold acetone. The filter cake of U.S.P. dehydrocholic acid
was sucked partially dry on the filter and then dried at 110°C for 3 hours.
Yield 15 g to 17 g (75% to 85%).A second crop of crystals was obtained from the combined filtrate and wash
liquid from the first crop filtration. This mixture, which initially had a volume
of about 100 ml, was concentrated to 20 ml. 10 ml of water was added to the
solution and 10 ml of acetone mixed with a small amount of water distilled off.
The residual thick slurry of dehydrocholic acid was cooled to 0-5°C, aged at this temperature with stirring for 30 min, and filtered. The filter cake was
washed with acetone at 0°C, partially dried by suction on the filter, and then
dried for three hours at 110°C. Yield 1 to 2 g (5% to 10%).

Biochem/physiol Actions
Dehydrocholic acid is an oxidation product of cholic acid by chromic acid that is not present in physiological conditions. When used in animal experiments, it stimulates bile secretion.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 81-23-2 includes 5 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 2 digits, 8 and 1 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 3 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 81-23:
(4*8)+(3*1)+(2*2)+(1*3)=42
42 % 10 = 2
So 81-23-2 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CHOLIC ACID AND CHENODEOXYCHOLIC ACID IN DEPENDENCE UPON CHOLESTEROL OF HEPATIC AND PLASMATIC SOURCES AS THE PRECURSOR IN RATS

Some difference in functional pool of cholesterol acting as the precursor of bile acids is pointed out between cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid.In order to elucidate this problem further, some experiments were performed with rats equilibrated cholesterol by subcutaneous implantation.The bile duct was cannulated in one series of experiments and ligated in another.After the operation 14C-specific radioactivity of serum cholesterol fell, but reached practically a new equilibrium within three days. 14C-Specific radioactivity of serum cholesterol as well as of biliary bile acids in bile-fistula rats and urinary bile aci ds in bile duct-ligated rats was determined during a three days-period in the new equilibrated state.The results were as follows: (1) 14C-Specific radioactivity of cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid in bile was lower than that of serum cholesterol, and 14C-specific radioactivity of cholic acid was clearly lower than that of chenodeoxycholic acid. (2) 14C-Specific radioactivity of cholic acid and β-muricholic acid in urine was lower than that of serum cholesterol, and 14C-specific radioactivity of cholic acid was lower than that of β-muricholic acid. (3) Biliary as well as urinary β-muricholic acid lost tritium label at 7-position entirely during the course of formation from cholesterol.
