Chitosans were prepared from red crab chitin under various alkali treatment conditions(different alkali concentrations, reaction times and temperatures) and theirphysicochemical properties were investigated. The nitrogen content and deacetylation degree of red crab chitin were 6.15% and 22.17A%, respectively. By the IR spectra, red crab and reference chitin showed the sharp bands at 1650 $cm^{-1}$ / and 1550 $cm^{-1}$ /, which are characteristic of chitin. The nitrogen contents of prepared chitosans ranged from 6.19~7.48%. Thedeacetylation degree was increased from 63~76% and 48~78% with increasing reaction time and temperature, whereas viscosity was decreased. The nitrogen content and yield of red crab chitosan perpared from chitin with 50% NaOH, 1:25(w/v) for 3.0 hr at 120$cm^{-1}$ / were 7.26% and 85.0%, respectively. and viscosity, deacetylation degree and molecular weight, 67.0 mPa.s, 75.0% and 6.5$\times$10$^{5}$ Dalton, respectively. From the IR spectra, the amide absorption bands of red crab and reference chitosan became very weak, similarly. And at solid state $^{13}$ C-NMR spectra, C=O(carbonyl carbon) signals absent, whereas $CH_3$(methyl carbon) was residues. Chemical shift of $^{13}$ C-NMR spectra of red crab and reference chitosans were in good agreement with slight experimental deviation.

In this study, we modified silica nanoparticles with bis[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine (BTPED) silane coupling agent, which has two secondary amino groups in a molecule, to introduce amino groups on the silica surface. After modification of silica, we used acrylate group containing 3-(acryloyloxy)-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (AHM) to introduce polymerizable methacrylate groups by Michael addition reaction. We used Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), elemental analysis (EA) and liquid and solid state cross polarization magic angle spinning (CP/MAS) nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) to understand the reactions between N-H groups of BTPED modified silica surface and acrylate groups of AHM monomer. We confirmed Michael addition reaction between BTPED modified silica and AHM completed in 2 hr reaction time. We also found increased methacrylate group introduction with increase of mol ratio of the acrylate group of AHM to N-H group of BTPED modified silica by increase of C=O peak area of measured FTIR spectra. These results were also supported by EA and solid state $^{13}C$ and $^{29}Si$ NMR results.

A Schiff base ligand (Z)-N-((Z)-2-(sec-butylimino)-1,2-diphenylethylidene)butan-2-amine was synthesized by condensation of benzil with sec-butyl amine. Complexation of the ligand was carried out with first row transition elements, manganese(II) and nickel(II). Ligand and complexes were characterized by FTIR, elemental analysis and thermogravimetric analysis in solid state and by NMR ($^1H,\;^{13}C$) in solution form. Both the complexes demonstrate good catalytic activity for butadiene oligomerization under mild conditions with methylaluminoxane (MAO) as co-catalyst.

Physical properties of PVB [Poly(vinyl butyral)] polymer are strongly correlated with water contents in the polymer. Thus dynamics of PVB containing 10~50(w/w) ％ of water were studied by $^{13}$ C CP/MAS/DD over the temperature range 293K -348K. From the Peak area, line width, chemical shift, and relaxation times ( $T_{1}$ $T_{1p}$) measured at 9.4 T, it was deduced that water facilitates molecular dynamics of the PVB molecules overall including conformational exchange of the racemic and meso butyaldehyde rings in the PVB. However, the influence of water was not linear to the amount of water in the PVB samples. It is suggested that water up to 30 w/w ％ of the sample is closely bound to the PVB polymer and water relatively free from the PVB polymer starts to appear when water is added more than 30 w/w ％.％.

가스 하이드레이트는 작은 고체 부피 내에 막대한 양의 가스를 저장할 수 있다는 특성으로 인하여, 최근 천연가스 혹은 메탄의 저장 매체로 활용하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행중에 있다. 하지만 실제 응용을 위해서는 미세구조 분석이 수행되어 하이드레이트 형태로 저장할 수 있는 정확한 저장 용량을 파악할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 여러가지의 고리형 에테르, 고리형 에스테르 및 고리형 케톤 화합물들을 테스트하여 메탄 가스와 반응하는 6가지의 새로운 sII 혹은 sH 하이드레이트 형성제를 파악하였다. 또한 새로이 발견된 형성제 모두에 대하여 하이드레이트 상평형도 측정하였다. 얻어진 상평형 데이터는 하이드레이트 안정영역과 게스트 분자 크기 간에 뚜렷한 상관관계가 있음을 입증하였다. 아울러 형성된 하이드레이트 샘플은 고체 분말 X-선 회절과 고체상 13C NMR 분석을 수행하여 하이드레이트 구조와 게스트 포집률을 조사하였다. 마지막으로, 비슷한 화학 구조식을 갖고 있음에도 2-methyltetrahydrofuran과 3-methyltetrahydrofuran, 혹은 4-methyl-1,3-dioxane과 4-methyl-1,3-dioxolane은 서로 다른 하이드레이트 결정 구조를 보여 주었는데, 이러한 차이는 하이드레이트 결정 구조를 결정짓는 게스트 분자 크기, 즉 임계 게스트 분자 크기를 파악하는 데에도 매우 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것이라 판단된다.

These polymers were characterized by elemental analysis, $T_g$, FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR, solid state $^{13}C$-NMR, and molecular weight determination. The thermal stability of these copolymers was examined using thermal analysis techniques, such as TGA and DSC. Their molecular weights as determined by laser light scattering technique ranged $5.13{\times}10^5$ to $331{\times}10^5\;g/mol$. These polymers display their $T_g$ in the range of 337 to $393^{\circ}C$ with an average decomposition temperature at $582^{\circ}C$.

The physicochemical properties of chitin and chitosan produced from lobster shrimp (Metanephrups thomosonii) shell were investigated. Lobster shrimp chitin contained 6.84% nitrogen, 0.57% fat and 0.32% ash, while chitosan contained 7.52% nitrogen, 0.13% fat and 0.33% ash. Degree of deacetylation and molecular weight of chitosan were 67.5% and $9.1{\times}105$, respectively. Yields of chitin from the shell portion and chitosan from the chitin were 15.7% and 75%, respectively. Chitin and chitosan contained 2.64 and 1.39mg/g of residual amino acids, respectively, with both the most predominant being lysine. Chemical structures of the lobster shrimp chitin and chitosan have been investigated by the IR and solid state $^{13}C-NMR$ spectra.

A humic acid(HA, Aldrich Co) sample was subjected to ultrafiltration for molecular size fractionation and three fractions of different nominal size($F_1$: 1,000-10,000 daltons; $F_2$: 10,000-50,000 daltons; $F_3$: 100,000-300,000 daltons) were obtained. The structural characteristics of the size-fractionated HA were analyzed using their IR and solid state C-13 NMR spectral data, and the carboxylate group contents of the humic acids were determined using their pH titration data. The $^7F_0-{^5}D_0$ excitation spectra of Eu(III) complexes of the size-fractionated mgHA in aqueous solution were acquired($[Eu(III)]=1.0{\times}10^{-4}mol\;L^{-1}$, $(HA)=470-970mg\;L^{-1}$) at pH 5.0 using a pulsed tunable laser system, in which metal binding properties of the size-fractionated HA were elucidated and compared on another. Characterization of the IR and C-13 NMR spectral data indicated that the fraction($F_3$) with molecules of larger size were primarily aliphatic, while the fractions($F_1$, $F_2$) with smaller molecules of less than 50,000 daltons were predominantly aromatic. Titration data were consistent with an increase in the number of carboxylate groups per unit mass as molecular size became smaller. The $^7F_0-{^5}D_0$ excitation spectral data of Eu(III)-humate complexes showed that the peak maxima on these spectra were shifted toward lower energies with increasing molecular size of HA, indicating the higher degree of bindings of the Eu in the molecules of larger size. We also discussed the relationship of the lower energy shifts of the maximum peaks with increasing the molecular size of HA with the structural differences of the size-fractionated HA.

Plant biomass has been proposed as an alternative source of petroleum-based chemical compounds. Especially, aromatic chemical compounds can be obtained from lignin by depolymerization processes because the lignin consist of complex aromatic materials. In this study, kraft lignin, the largest emitted substance among several kinds of lignin in Korea, was used as a starting material and was characterized by solid-state $^{13}C$-Muclear Magnetic Resonance($^{13}C$-NMR), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy(FT-IR), Elemental Analysis(EA). The depolymerization of kraft lignin was studied at water-phenol mixture solvent in near critical region and the experiments were conducted using a batch type reactor. The effects of water-to-phenol ratio and reaction temperature($300-400^{\circ}C$) were investigated to determine the optimum operating conditions. Additionally, the effects of formic acid as a hydrogen-donor solvent instead of $H_2$ gas were examined. The chemical species and quantities in the liquid products were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy(GC-MS), and solid residues(char) were analyzed using FT-IR. GC-MS analysis confirmed that the aromatic chemicals such as anisole, o-cresol(2-methylphenol), p-cresol(4-methylphenol), 2-ethylphenol, 4-ethylphenol, dibenzofuran, 3-methyl cabazole and xanthene were produced when phenol was added in the water as a co-solvent.
