Furfuryl acetate was chlorinated in presence of acetic acid using carbontetrachloride as the solvent. When the chlorination proceeded at the low concentration of acetic acid, the formation of the tetrachloride was more efficient than that of higher concentration. The chlorination done in presence of various Lewis acids such as aluminum chloride, hydrogen fluoride, and borontrifluoride could not give high yield of tetrachloride, but trichloride. In case of borontrifluoride and hydrogen fluoride, the decomposition of the reaction mixture was apparent. The results were discussed in terms of the stability of furfuryl nucleus towards an electron acceptor and the convenient procedure of preparing trichloro furfuryl acetate was described.

A large variety of weed killers, insecticides, and bactericiedes on the market today are of almost infinite variety, but their pharmacological effects are different from each other according to the objects to cope with. Therefore, it is hoped that some chemical substance which serves as weed killer, an insecticide, and a bactericede at a same time, should be synthesized, in order to save expense and labor. I anticipated that the desire would be met by introducing to a molecule the radical which has the three effects. Here, I made an attempt of introducing $Cl_2$ gas to aniline considering the following respects: 1. Introduction velocity of $Cl_2$ gas under the varied temeratures and velocities of $Cl_2$ gas 2. The effect of reaction period under the condition which gives the most satisfactory yield. 3. The actions of catalysts, $SbCl_3$, $FeCl_3$, and $MoCl_5$, and their proportions when a mixture of the three catalysts is used in producing 2,6-dichloro-aniline. After consideration of above phenomena, the maximum production rate of 79.5% of 2.6-compound was obtained. With the compound I synthesized 2.6-dichloro-4-nitroaniline-mercuric acetate. Investigations of the effects of the compound as weed killer, an insecticide, and a bactericide showed that the compound, 2,6-dichloro-4-Nitro Aniline mercuric acetate has a satisfactory herbi-insecti-bactericidal effect.

In the presence of hydrogen peroxide, the effects of temperature and pH to the catalytic reaction velocity of cupric -thiocyanate and the quantities of reduction products adsorbed on the D.M.E. have been studied by polarographic method. According to these experiments, the following empirical equation has been derived for the relation among temperature $T_i$, concentration of hydrogen ion $pH_i$ and adsorbed cuprous-thiocyanate in moles/$cm^2Z_{ij}$, and rate constant log$K_{ij}$ $$log\;K_{ij}=\frac{1}{T_i}\{A(pH_j)+B\}+C(pH_j)+D$$ $$Z_{ij}=\frac{1}{T_i}\{{\alpha}(pH_j)^{\frac{1}{2}}+{\beta}\}+{\gamma}(pH_j)^{\frac{1}{2}}+{\delta}$$ where, A,B,C,D and {$\alpha},{\beta},{\gamma},{\delta}$ are constants. The Calculated values by both equations are well agreed with empirical values within 8% in the error.

The tendency of forming a charge transfer complex between furfuryl derivatives (2-methyl furan, furfuryl acetate, and Ethyl 2-furoate) and halides(Iodine, Iodine monochloride, and Trichloro bromo methane) was studied by means of ultra violet spectrophotometry. In case of furfuryl acetate the formation of the complex could not be distinctly detected by this method. Iodine and trichloro bromo methane could show a distinct formation of charge transfer complex in the U.V. region, whereas iodine monochloride shows a possibility of forming an addition compound rather than the charge transfer complex itself. The results were discussed in conjunction with the stability of the furfuryl ring.

Electrodeposition of lead peroxide on the graphite core was studied. The results are following; 1) At more noble potential than 1.6V vs. S.C.E. and lower temperature than $40^{\circ}C$, $PbO_2$ deposited current efficiency is increased but deposited layer falls off easily from graphite core. 2) Oxygen overvoltage of $PbO_2$ deposited layer on the graphite core is largely with increasing $PbO_2$ depositing anodic potential and with lowlying electrolytic temperature. 3) To obtain the $PbO_2$ deposited layer without falling off from the graphite core, it is necessary to change the electrolytic conditions, anodic potential and electrolytic temperature, in four stages successively.

Effect of Added 1-hexene on the yield of hydrogen produced from Co-60 gamma radiolysis of methanol was investigated at room temperature. The results indicated that the yield of hydrogen decreased rapidly with increasing 1-hexene concentrations. Effect of added methyl borate on the radiolysis of methanol was also studied in the presence of oxygen. The results revealved that methyl borate acted as a less effective scavenger than oxygen towards the precursors of the radiolysis products. Experimental data previously obtained on the systems with oxygen added were treated more quantitatively to re-examine mechanism of the radiolysis of methanol in detail.

Halogen contents of the river water of Seoul city and of municipal reservoirs were investigated from June in 1969 to February in 1970. Bromine contents were ranging from 0.006 to 0.048 mg/1 of the reservoirs, 0.021 to 0.048 mg/1 of Han River, 0.051 to 0.540 mg/1 of rivers running through residential areas and 0.083 to 0.920 mg/1 of rivers running through industrial areas. Bromine contents increased as the river water became contaminated. Most of Br/Cl of Han River and the reservoirs were higher than $3.4{\times}10^{-3}$ of sea water. Bromine contents at 17 different places were the largest in November. The contents of chlorine, iodine and COD (chemical oxygen demand) were nearly correlated with that of bromine. Bromine contents of the river waters in Seoul chiefly originated from consumption of domestic and industrial salt.

Some factors such as the weight ratio, reaction time and temperature for the separation of rare earth elements from monazite are studied. The influence of the inorganic phosphate for the leaching is also studied.

A theory of surface tension developed by using the approximation that the surface of liquids consists of a monomolecular layer has been applied to the molten salts (NaCl, KCl, NaBr, KBr) and the strong electrolyte solutions. By considering that the ionic forces are the long-range forces and with the use of the partition functions developed, the surface tension of molten salts and strong electrolyte solutions has been calculated. The results show good agreement between theory and experiment at various temperatures and over a wide concentration ranges (0.1-4.0m)

The effect of dimethyl maleate on the rate of thermolysis of 3,4,5,6-Tetrachlorobenzene-2-Diazo-1-Oxide in 1-chloronaphthalene at $130.2^{\circ}$ was investigated: In a separate experiment, the effect of dimethyl fumarate upon the same reaction at the same temperature was investigated. The rate of thermolysis was decreased by dimethyl maleate, while dimethyl fumarate accelerated the reaction. Some kinetic parameters of the thermolysis of 3,4,5,6-Tetrachlorobenzene-2-Diazo-1-Oxide were calculated. A mechanism of isomerization of dimethyl maleate to dimethyl fumarate by 3,4,5,6-Tetrachlorobenzene-2-Diazo-1-Oxide was proposed.
