title: Studies on the enzyme immunoassay of bio-active constituents contained in oriental medicinal drugs. V. Preparation of bovine serum albumin conjugate and beta-galactosidase labelled antigen for enzyme immunoassay of 3 beta-(monoglucuron-1' beta-yl)-18 beta-glycyrrhetic acid.
abstract: In order to prepare an immunogen for enzyme immunoassay of 3 beta-(monoglucuron-1'-beta-yl)-18 beta-glycyrrhetic acid (3MGA), which was isolated from a patient with glycyrrhizin-induced pseudoaldosteronisms, benzyl glycyrrhetate (3) was allowed to react with an acetobromosugar (2) in the presence of silver carbonate to give benzyl 3 beta-(methyl 2',3',4'-triacetyl-glucuron-1' beta-yl)-glycyrrhetate (5) and methyl 3',4'-diacetyl-alpha-1',2'-O-[1-(benzyl glycyrrhet-3 beta-yl)- ethylidene]-D-glucuronate (4). On the other hand, this reaction was carried out in the presence of mercuric cyanide in nitromethane to give compound 5, benzyl 3 beta-acetyl glycyrrhetate (6) and benzyl 11-oxo-A-neooleana-3(5),12-dien-3-oate (7). 4-Aminomethylcyclohexanecarboxylic acid and glycine were introduced as chemical bridges at C-30 of 3 beta-(tert-butylglucuron-1' beta-yl)-glycyrrhetic acid (11) derived from compound 5. The former bridge was used to prepare an immunogenic conjugate with bovine serum albumin, and the latter bridge was used for antigen labelled with beta-galactosidase.
