N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) is a commonly used industrial solvent. The formation of some metabolites of DMF in humans occurs via N-methylcarbamoylated species (e.g. N-methylcarbamoylated glutathione). The aim of our study was to investigate whether DMF lends to N-methylcarbamoylated adducts at the N-terminal valine of haemoglobin (Hb). Therefore, Hb adduct levels of ten DMF exposed workers and ten controls were analysed by a specific and sensitive detection method using capillary gas chromatography and a mass selective detector (GC/MS). Using this method we were able to show for the first time that Hb adducts are formed during the metabolism of DMF in humans. The general population, however, shows still unidentified background levels of this adduct which are on average lower by a factor of 50. The pathway for the formation of the investigated DMF-Hb adduct in workers exposed to DMF is still unknown. As identical adducts were also found after exposure to methylisocyanate (MIC), our work indicates the formation of MIC during the metabolism of DMF. The formation of Hb adducts with DMF and its relevance for occupational health is a subject of further research.

The first example of palladium-catalysed oxidative carbonylation of unprotected α-amino amides to hydantoins is described here. The selective synthesis of the target compounds was achieved under mild conditions (1 atm of CO), without ligands and bases. The catalytic system overrode the common reaction pathway that usually leads instead to the formation of symmetrical ureas.

Paragraph 0786; 0787; 0788, (2013/03/26)
Provided are a novel low-molecular-weight compound that suppresses production of induction type MMPs, particularly MMP-9, rather than production of hemostatic type MMP-2, as well as a prophylactic/therapeutic drug for autoimmune diseases or osteoarthritis. An amide derivative represented by the following formula (I) wherein each symbol is as defined in the specification, or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof.
