Abstract
Interpretation of the chemical and spectral (IR., UV., ^1^H‐ and ^13^C‐NMR.) properties of the antitumor antibiotic hedamycin (C~41~H~50~N~2~O~11~) suggests that the molecule contains a methyl substituted 1‐hydroxyanthraquinone nucleus, an α, β‐unsaturated ketone, two sugar‐like tetrahydropyran rings (4 and 8) and an aliphatic chain 2, presumably with an epoxy group (see the Scheme).

## Abstract The photolability of the antitumor antibiotic hedamycin (**1**) was investigated by irradiation in different solvents in the presence or in the absence of oxygen. The products formed were separated chromatographically and their structures determined by NMR spectroscopy. Photolysis of **
Two series of segmented polyurethanes, one containing 50% soft segments and the other with 70% soft segments were synthesized. Chemical crosslinks were introduced through the hard segment in a controlled way. Chemical polyurethane networks were characterized by swelling. The effect of the degree of
The mesoglea of Hydra serves both as a skeleton and as a substratum for cell migration. These functions are made possible in Hydra pseudoligactis by a system of fibers that run along the body column, parallel to the oral-aboral axis, and perpendicular to the oral-aboral axis. The fibers are either a
