Abstract

Abstract Iodinatable bile salt derivatives are obtained by providing bile salts and their glycine and taurine conjugates with iodinatable groups. The radioiodinated compounds are useful in the radioimmunoassay of bile salts and in physiological studies. The preferred compound is cholylglycylhistamine. The synthesis of radioiodinated conjugates and their purification by extraction and silica gel chromatography are described.

A process for separating an iodinated cationic bile acid conjugate, said iodinated conjugate being a bile acid or an amino acid or diamine amide-bonded conjugate thereof linked directly or indirectly to a group containing iodine, from a solution also containing the corresponding uniodinated conjugate, comprising applying said solution to the origin of a thin layer chromatography sheet, developing a chromatogram by means of a solvent containing a nitrogen base, whereby a band of iodinated conjugate migrates to a position beyond a band of uniodinated conjugate, and removing said iodinated conjugate; said bile acid being selected from the group consisting of cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, deoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid, and said group containing iodine being selected from the group consisting of tyrosine, tyrosine esters, histidine, histidine esters, tyramine, histamine, phenylpropionic acid, phenylalanine, phenylalanine esters, tryptophane and tryptophane esters.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 138 words
A process for separating an iodinated cationic bile acid conjugate, said iodinated conjugate being a bile acid or an amino acid or diamine amide-bonded conjugate thereof linked directly or indirectly to a group containing iodine, from a solution also containing the corresponding uniodinated conjugate, comprising applying said solution to the origin of a thin layer chromatography sheet, developing a chromatogram by means of a solvent containing a nitrogen base, whereby a band of iodinated conjugate migrates to a position beyond a band of uniodinated conjugate, and removing said iodinated conjugate; said bile acid being selected from the group consisting of cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, deoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid, and said group containing iodine being selected from the group consisting of tyrosine, tyrosine esters, histidine, histidine esters, tyramine, histamine, phenylpropionic acid, phenylalanine, phenylalanine esters, tryptophane and tryptophane esters.
