7-Alkyl-1-carboxyphenazine derivatives, bearing butyl or octyl group, were synthesize by the reaction of anthranilic acid with 3-nitroalkylbenzene, prepared from aniline and alcohols as starting materials through alkylation of 3-nitro-4-aminoalkylbenzene. And the products were also identified by elementary analysis, IR and NMR spectra. Surface tension of these derivatives in aqueous solution was determined. And also Antibiotic activity of these derivatives was tested, using Gram positive and negative bacillus and fungi. It showed that the antibiotic activity of these alkyl-substituted 1-carboxyphenazine derivatives was stronger than that of the 1-carboxyphenazine.

Rates of reactions of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene and 2,4-dinitrobromobenzene with para substituted anilines in acetonitrile-methanol binary mixtures have been measured. It has been shown that methanol acts as nucleophilic catalyst upon reaction of 2,4-dinitrobromobenzene with anilines and as bifunctional catalyst upon reaction of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene with anilines. The electrophilic catalysis by methanol probably consists of formation of hydrogen bond in the transition state between alcoholic hydrogen and leaving group, fluorine. Nucleophilic catalysis by methanol may be ascribed to formation of hydrogen bond between alcoholic oxygen and amine hydrogen in the transition state.

In order to obtain a clue in understanding enzymatic hydrolysis in which the His-Cys moieties of papain protease is involved, we prepared cationic peptide-sufactants bearing histidyl, cysteinyl, and both histydyl and cysteinyl residues. Their catalytic efficiency toward the hydrolysis of PNPL were investigated in comicellar phases formed with $N^{+}C_{2}CysC_{12}$, $N^{+}C_{2}HisC_{12}$, $N^{+}C_{2}HisCysC_{12}$ increased markedly in the same order compared with that of $N^{+}C_{2}AlaC_{12}$. The markedly increased catalytic effects are attributed to the imidazole groups of $N^{+}C_{2}HisC_{12}$ and the thiol groups of $N^{+}C_{2}CysC_{12}$, and the large catalytic efficiency of $N^{+}C_{2}HisCysC_{12}$, is considered due to the interaction of the imidazole and the thiol groups. In order to investigate catalytic activities, rate constants for the functional groups, km* and dissociation constants, pKa have been determined. The results showed that $k^{\ast}_m$ and pKa of the imidazole groups were $7.91{\times}10^{-4}S^{-1}$ and 6.49, and those of the thiol groups were $6.00{\times}10^{-4}S^{-1}$ and 10.50. The catalytic effects of comicellar systems on the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl esters has increased according to the increasing size of the alkyl carbon number. Therefore, the catalytic effects have been increasing by the interaction of micellar hydrophobic parts and substrates as well as action of the functional groups.

Several benzanilides were prepared by acylation of anilines with substituted benzoyl chlorides. While 2-chlorobenzanilides were photocyclized, 2-methylbenzanilide and 2'-methylbenzanilide were cleaved to give photo-Fries type products. 2-Nitrobenzanilide and 2'-nitrobenzanilide were inert in the above conditions due to lowering energy of the excited state by the nitro group. N, N-dibenzoylaniline and N, N-di-(2-chlorobenzoyl) aniline gave photo-Fries type reaction products effectively. In the benzanilide photo-Fries type reaction the excited singlet state was believed to be involved, since no oxygen effect was observed on the reaction rate. Quantum yield for 2-methylbenzanilide is higher in nonpolar and less viscous solvents than in polar and viscous solvents. The solvent cage radical pair is suggested in the photo-Fries type reaction of benzanilides.

Most of army depots contaminated with co-contaminants, 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene(TNT) and heavy metals. In phytoremediation for the TNT, heavy metals may inhibit mineralization, transformation and sequestration of TNT by the plant. We studied effect of cadmium on TNT degradation and transformation by Abutilion avicennae in hydroponic cultures. When cultured in 20 mgTNT/L and 1.3 mgCd/L, the plant displayed phytotoxicities; reduction of leaf fresh, leaf roil, chlorosis, leaf loss and fresh weight loss. Phytotoxicity was severer in the combined contaminants than in single contaminant. Because A. avicennae uptake just a little cadmium, 1.3 mgCd/L included in the TNT medium did not influece significantly TNT transformation, translocation and distribution by A. avicennae. Therefore, the soil solution containing cadmium would not affect TNT degradation by Abutilion avicennae in Army depots polluted with TNT.

The polymeric compound [{Mo(NO)_2Cl_2}n] was prepared by reductive nitrosylation of NaNO_2 and acidified FeSO_4 with MoCl_5. The reactions of [{Mo(NO)_2Cl_2}n] with unidentate and bidentate ligands afforded neutral monomeric $[Mo(NO)_2Cl_2L_2(or L-L)] in high yield (80∼90%). 3,5-Lutidine, {\gamma}-Cyanopyridine, 1,2-Phenylenediamine, 1,10-Phenanthroline, sym-Diphenylethylenediamine, 9,10-Phenanthrenequinone, 1,3-Bis(diphenylphosphino)propane and 8-Hydroxyquinoline were used as coordinating ligands. The preparation and characterization of these dinitrosylmolybdenum complexes by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, infrared, and UV-Visible spectroscopy are reported. The infrared spectra indicate that in all of the compounds prepared, the NO groups occupy cis-positions in the octahedral group of ligands.

This study investigated the TNT decomposition by the treatment of alkaline hydrolysis. To obtain this objecitive, spectrum shift characteristics, pH effect, kinetics, and product analysis were examined during the alkaline hydrolysis by means of hydroxide ions. At pH = 12, an aqueous solution of TNT was changed into yellow-brown coloring, in which its absorbances were newly increased in a range of wavelength 400-600 nm. From the kinetic data, pseudo-first-order rate constant in a excess of hydroxide ion, in contrast to TNT concentration, was $0.0022min^{-1}$, which means that the reaction rate between TNT and hydroxide ion can be very slow, and that 1,047 min is necessary to achieve a 90% reduction of the initial TNT. In products analyses, nitrite ions and formic acid were mainly produced by the alkaline hydrolysis, nitrate ions and oxalic acid as minor products were generated.

The effect of pressure and temperature on the stabilities of the charge transfer complexes of 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene, tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone and tetracyanoethylene with hexamethylbenzene in carbon tetrachloride has been investigated by spectrophotometric measurements. The equilibrium constants for the formation of the complexes were obtained at various temperature and pressure, and thermodynamic parameters for the formation of the charge transfer complexes are calculated from these values. The relative stabilities of charge transfer complexes with hexamethylbenzene increase in the order; 1,3,5-trinitrobenzene < tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone < tetracyanoethylene. This may be regarded as an order of relative acidity of these compounds in complexation with hexamethylbenzene and is explained in terms of the negative inductive effect of the ${\pi}$ acceptors. The red-shift at higher pressure, the blue-shift at higher temperature and the relation between pressure and oscillator strength are discussed on the basis of thermodynamic functions.

The microscopic origin of nonlinear optical properties of quinoline derivatives have been investigated theoretically using MOPAC-AM1 method. In order to prepare promising nonlinear optical active polymers of polyquinoline derivatives, the optimized positions of strong electron donor and electron acceptor are determined in the heterocyclic ring for the energetically favorable structures. For each compound, the effect of the substituted positions on the microscopic nonlinear coefficients were investigated. Polyquinoline was already evaluated to have outstanding physical and mechanical properties so that its monomeric analogues were designed and synthesized for developing new second and third order nonlinear optical main chain polymers. Using the MOPAC-AM1 method, properties calculated include the intrinsic ground-state dipole moments, the polarizabilities, first and second hyperpolarizabilities under the condition of finite-field $(\omega$ = 0).
