Nevertheless, its global budget still remains debated. Stable isotope analysis is a powerful tool to constrain fluxes Correspondence of chloromethane between various environmental compartments which involve Thierry Nadalig, Universite de Strasbourg, a multiplicity of sources and sinks, and both biotic and abiotic processes.

Nitric Oxide in Health and Disease of the Nervous System H-Y Yun1,2, VL Dawson1,3,4 and TM Dawson1,3

It mediates vasodilation of blood vessels, host defence against infectious agents and tumors, and neurotransmission of the central and peripheral nervous systems. In the nervous system, NO is generated by three nitric oxide synthase (NOS) isoforms (neuronal, endothelial and immunologic NOS). Endothelial NOS and neuronal NOS are constitutively expressed and acti- vated by elevated intracellular calcium, whereas immunologic NOS is inducible with new RNA and protein synthesis upon immune stimulation. Neuronal NOS can be transcriptionally induced under conditions such as neuronal development and injury. NO may play a role not only in physiologic neuronal functions such as neurotransmitter release, neural development, regeneration, synaptic plasticity and regulation of gene expression but also in a variety of neurological disorders in which excessive production of NO leads to neural injury. Keywords: nitric oxide synthase; endothelium-derived relaxing factor; neurotransmission; neurotoxic- ity; neurological diseases Nitric oxide is probably the smallest and most versatile NO synthases isoforms and regulation of NO bioactive molecule identified. Convergence of multi- generation disciplinary efforts in the field of immunology, cardio- vascular pharmacology, chemistry, toxicology and neu- NO is formed by the enzymatic conversion of the guan- robiology led to the revolutionary novel concept of NO idino nitrogen of l-arginine by NO synthase (NOS). -

Sodium Borohydride (Nabh4) Itself Is a Relatively Mild Reducing Agent
1770 Vol. 35 (1987) Chem. Pharm. Bull. _35( 5 )1770-1776(1987). Reactions of Sodium Borohydride. IV.1) Reduction of Aromatic Sulfonyl Chlorides with Sodium Borohydride ATSUKO NOSE and TADAHIRO KUDO* Daiichi College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 22-1 Tamagawa-cho, Minami-ku, Fukuoka 815, Japan (Received September 12, 1986) Aromatic sulfonyl chlorides were reduced with sodium borohydride in tetrahydrofuran at 0•Ž to the corresponding sulfinic acids in good yields. Further reduction proceeded when the reaction was carried out under reflux in tetrahydrofuran to give disulfide and thiophenol derivatives via sulfinic acid. Furthermore, sulfonamides were reduced with sodium borohydride by heating directly to give sulfide, disulfide and thiophenol derivatives, and diphenyl sulfone was reduced under similar conditions to give thiophenol and biphenyl. Keywords reduction; sodium borohydride; aromatic sulfonyl chloride; sulfonamide; sulfone; aromatic sulfinic acid; disulfide; sulfide; thiophenol Sodium borohydride (NaBH4) itself is a relatively mild reducing agent which is extensively used for the selective reduction of the carbonyl group of ketone, aldehyde and (carboxylic) acid halide derivatives. In the previous papers, we reported that NaBI-14 can reduce some functional groups, such as carboxylic anhydrides,2) carboxylic acids3) and nitro compounds.1) As a continuation of these studies, in the present paper, we wish to report the reduction of aromatic sulfonyl chlorides, sulfinic acids and sulfonamides with NaBH4. Many methods have been reported for the reduction of sulfonyl chlorides to sulfinic acids, such as the use of sodium sulfite,4a-d) zinc,5) electrolytic reduction,6) catalytic reduction,7) magnesium,8) sodium amalgam,9) sodium hydrogen sulfite,10) stannous chlo- TABLE I. -
