The goal of this study is to measure and compare the performance of solar heat pump for room and hot water heating. To accomplish the goal, solar heat pump with alumium roll bond type evaporator and indoor heat exchanger(condenser) was built and fully instrumented with thermocouples and pressure transducers etc. The test results showed that the COP(coefficient of performance) of HFC-134a($CF_3CH_2F$) were higher than those of CFC-12($CF_2Cl_2$). One "stratospherically safe" new refrigerant is 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane(HFC-134a), which is thermodynamically similar to CFC-12 and considered to be a potential direct replacement for CFC-12 in air-conditioning and refrigeration applications. The solar heat pump system for room heating was designed to show the best efficiency that the room temperature make $18{\sim}20^{\circ}C$ and $23{\sim}25^{\circ}C$ in the southern part of South Korea during November, December, and January.

Enzymatic resolution reactions were investigated using Candida rugosa lipase for the production of potically pure S-(+)-Ketoprofen. When the enzymatic hydroysis (and esterification) of recemic ketoprofen esters (and recemic ketoprofen with alcohol) was investigated comparatively, aqueous media was more specific for S-enantiomer than organic media. In the enzymatic hydrolysis of racemic ketoprofen ethyl ester in aqueous media, optimal temperature and pH for enantioselectivity were $37^{\circ}C$ and 4, respectively. The stereoselectivity of the enzyme was enhanced by adding dialcohols such as ethylene glycol and propylene glycol. The enantiomeric ratio obtained in the 40 %(v/v) ethylene glycol was 2-fold higher than that without the additive. By adding $CH_2Cl_2$, $CHCl_3$ and $CCl_4$ (5%,v/v), the enantioselectivity was reversed. A dramatic increase in the stereoselectivity was achieved using lipase purified by anion exchange chromatography. The type A lipase(the first eluted lipase fraction) showed an enantiomeric ratio of >100, whereas the type B lipase(the second eluted lipase fraction) exhibited enantimomer ratio of 9.0 in the hydrolysis of racemic ketoprofen ethyl ester.

2kg of the dried leaves of chamaecyparis obtusa Endlicher were ground, extracted with acetone-$H_2O$(7:3, v/v), concentrated, and fractionated with a series of hexane, $CH_2Cl_2$, EtOAc and water on a separatory funnel. Each fraction was freeze dried to give dark-brown powder and a EtOAc soluble portion of the powder was chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column using a series of aqueous methanol and ethanol-hexane mixture as eluents. Spectrometric analyses such as NMR and FAB-MS including TLC were performed to characterize the structures of the isolated compounds. The leaves of chamaecyparis obtusa Endlicher contained a large amount of taxifolin-3-O-${\beta}$-D-xylopyranoside and (+)-catechin in addition to a small amount of quercetin-3-O-${\alpha}$-L-rhamnopyranoside.

A bacterium CGH18 exhibiting antioxidizing and chitin-degrading activities in the colloidal chitin culture medium was isolated from salt-fermented crab. This strain was identified as Bacillus idriensis based on 16S rDNA sequence homology search. Its crude extract was partitioned between n-BuOH and $H_2O$. The organic layer was further partitioned between $CH_2$ $Cl_2$ and $H_2O$. Antioxidant activities of crude extract and its solvent fractions were evaluated using five different bioassay methods, including the degree of occurrence of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), peroxynitrite scavenging (ONOO), and oxidative damage of genomic DNA. All fractions exhibited significant antioxidant activity in bioassay systems used.

Since reactive oxygen species (ROS) and hydroxyl radicals ($^-OH$) play an important role in the pathogenesis of many human degenerative diseases, much attention has focused on the development of safe and effective antioxidants. Preliminary experiments have revealed that the methanol (MeOH) extract of the stem of Prunus davidiana exerts inhibitory/scavenging activities on 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radicals, total ROS and peroxynitrites ($ONOO^-$). In the present study, the antioxidant activities of this MeOH extract and the organic solvent-soluble fractions, dichloromethane (CH$_2$Cl$_2$), ethyl acetate (EtOAc), and n-butanol (n-BuOH), and the water layer of P. davidiana stem were evaluated for the potential to inhibit $^-OH$ and total ROS generation in kidney homogenates using 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCHF-DA), and for the potential to scavenge authentic $ONOO^-$. We also evaluated the inhibitory activity of seven flavonoids isolated from P. davidiana stem, kaempferol, kaempferol 7-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucoside, (+)-catechin, dihydrokaempferol, hesperetin 5-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucoside, naringenin and its 7-Ο-$\beta$-D-glucoside, on the total ROS, $^-OH$ and $ONOO^-$ systems. For the further elucidation of the structure-inhibitory activity relationship of flavonoids on total ROS and 'OH generation, we measured the antioxidant activity of sixteen flavonoids available, including three active flavonoids isolated from P. davidiana, on the total ROS and 'OH systems. We found that the inhibitory activity on total ROS generation increases in strength with more numerous hydroxyl groups on their structures. Also, the presence of an ortho-hydroxyl group, whether on the Aring or S-ring, and a 3-hydroxyl group on the C-ring increased the inhibitory activity on both total ROS and $^-OH$ generation.

We have prepared the polymethylene-bridged, dinuciear, half-sandwich constrained geometry catalysts (CGC)［Zr(η$\^$5/:η$^1$-C$\_$9/H$\_$5/SiMe$_2$NCMe$_3$)］$_2$［(CH$_2$)$\_$n/］［n=6(9), n=12(10)］by treating 2 equivalents of ZrCl$_4$with the corresponding tetralithium salts of the ligands in toluene. $^1$H and $\^$13/C NMR spectra of the synthesized complexes provide firm evidence for the anticipated dinuciear structure. In $^1$H NMR spectra, two singlets representing the methyl group protons bonded at the Si atom of the CGC are present at 0.88 and 0.64 ppm, which are considerably downfield positions relative to the shifts of 0.02 and 0.05 ppm of the corresponding ligands. To investigate the catalytic behavior of the prepared dinuciear catalysts, we conducted copolymerizations of ethylene and styrene in the presence of MMAO. The prime observation is that the two dinuclear CGCs 9 and 10 are not efficient for copo-lymerization, which definitely distinguishes them from the corresponding titanium-based dinuclear CGC. These species are active catalysts, however, for ethylene homopolymerization; the activity of catalyst 10, which contains a 12-methylene bridge, is larger than that of 9 (6-methylene bridge), which indicates that the presence of the longer bridge between the two active sites contributes more effectively to facilitate the polymerization activity of the dinuciear CGC. The activities increase as the polymerization temperature increases from 40 to 70$^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, the molecular weights of the polyethylenes are reduced when the polymerization temperature is increased. We observe that dinuciear metallocenes having different-length bridges give different polymerization results, which reconfirms the significant role that the nature of the bridging ligand has in controlling the polymerization properties of dinuclear catalysts.

Ab initio calculations are carried out on protonation equilibria of 5-memberedheteroaromatic aldehydes (5MHAs;heteroatom Y = NH, O, PH,and S and substituentZ = NH2, OCH3, SCH3, CH3, H, Cl, CHO, CN,NO2) at the $MP2}6-31G*$ level. Naturalbond orbital (NBO) analyses show that the optimal localized natural Lewis structures of the protonated aldehydes,(P), are ortho (C3) protonated (for Y = O, PH and S) and N-pro-tonated (for Y = NH) forms in contrast to the standard structural Lewis formula for aldehydes, (R). The delo-calizability of ${\pilone}-pairon$ the heteroatom $(n{\pi}(Y))$ is in the order Y = NH > O > S > PH. The transmission efficiency of (Z) substituent effects to the carbonyl moiety run parallel to the delocalizability of $n{\pi}(Y)$ for R,but is dominantly influenced by the cationic charge on $C{\alpha}(C{\alpha}+)$ for P, which is in the reverse order of thede-localizability of $n{\pi}(Y).$ The Hammett ${\rho}values$ for variation of Z in the protonation are determined by the dif-ference in the transmission efficiencies between Pand R stateat simple interpretation of their magnitude is not warranted. However,the magnitude of the gas-phase ${\rho}z+$ values decreases as the level ofcomputation is raised from RHF/3-21G* to RHF/6-31G* and to $MP2}6-31G*$ but increases again at the MP4SDQ/6-31G* level. Further decrease occurs when solvent effect (water) is accounted for by the SCRF method. Comparison of the SCRF ${\rho}z+values$ with those determined in the aqueous acid solution for Y = S and CHCH shows inadequacy of accounting for the solvent effects on the ${\rho}values$ by a continuum model. It is noteworthy that semiempirical calculations, especially theAM1 method, give even lower magnitude of the gas-phase ${\rho}values.

In this study, crude extracts of the marine eelgrass Zostera japonica and their solvent-partitioned fractions were evaluated for their inhibitory effect against AGS, HT-1080 and MCF-7 human cancer cells using MTT assay. Each of the crude extracts (acetone/methylene, chloride, and methanol) of Z. japonica showed a significant inhibitory effect on the growth of human cancer cells. The combined crude extracts were partitioned between $CH_2Cl_2$ and water. The organic layer was further partitioned between 85% aq. MeOH and n-hexane, and the aqueous layer was then fractionated into n-BuOH and $H_2O$, successively. Growth inhibition effects of solvent-partitioned fractions from Z. japonica on human cancer cells increased in a dose-dependent manner. Among these tested samples, the 85% aq. MeOH fraction revealed good inhibitory effects on the growth of AGS and HT-1080 human cancer cells, while the n-hexane fraction exhibited good inhibitory effects on the growth of AGS and MCF-7 human cancer cells. In addition, 85% aq. MeOH and n-hexane fractions enhanced mRNA expression of p53 gene. These results suggest that there is further scope for the isolation of active compounds from Z. japonica, which should show much stronger anticancer activity.

Anthocyanin in blackish purple rice is composed of cyanidin, peonidin, malvidin, pelargonidin and delphinidin flavylium ion and their glucosides, which shows antioxidant activity similar to a-tocoperol. It has been demonstrated that cyanidin-3-glucoside(C3G) of anthocyanin has a high-potency antioxidant activity, and is a prominent in anticancer and antithrombotic activity. In analysis of content of anthocyanin from the genetic source of blackish purple rice, the level of C3G was approximately 80% of total contents of anthocyanins, and showed the highest content in Heugjinjubyeo, of which contains an amount of 500 mg by weight of 100g brown rice in comparison that most of varieties has less than 50mg by weight of 100g brown rice. We found that C3G pigment in blackish purple rice was considerably affected by cultural season, cultivation area, ripening temperature, and weather condition, etc. as well as genetic properties. In cross combination between Heugjinjubyeo and Suwon425, intermediate parent $F_9$ generation which was three times higher or more in C3G content than that of Heugjinjubyeo was bred, of which it contained an amount of 1678 mg by weight of 100g brown rice, and we called it 'C3GHi' Rice. And, we found that the C3GHi rice was more excellent than that of the existing Heugjinjubyeo in anticancer and antithrombotic activity. Methanol extract from Heugjinjubyeo was fractionated by organic solvents in order of n-hexane, $CH_{2}Cl_2$ and n-BuOH, and then oryzafuran, quercetin, vanillic acid and protocatechuic acid and their structures from the n-BuOH fraction were ascertained. Oryzafuran of these compounds was a natural compound found firstly in nature. Quercetin and protocatechuic acid besides new compound oryzafuran showed excellent antioxidant ability to vitamin C. These results suggest that blackish purple rice has very high value as a source of various functional food as well as staple food.
