The systematic investigation of the retention behaviors of 18 monosubstituted benzenes in reversed-phase liquid chromatography(RPLC) was studied in order to predict the separation possibility of their mixtures and study the contribution of substituent group to the retentions of solutes. The columns and mobile phases employed in this study were $\mu$ -Bondapak $C_{18}$, $\mu$-Bondapak phenyl columns and methanol/water, acetonitrile/water, and THF/water, respectively. The polar substituents such as phenol, aniline, acetophenone and benzonitrile have smaller capacity factor(k') values than benzene, while nonpolar ones such as alkylbenzenes and halobenzenes show larger k' value. The capacity factors of all solutes increased on both C18 bonded and phenyl bonded phases as the organic solvent content of three organic solvent-water mixtures decreased. The absolute differences in capacity factor(${\Delta}k$') between substituent and benzene were graphically shown for the prediction of the separation of the mixture and interpretation of the elution behavior of substituent. In addition, the selectivity of solvent system for the separation of the mixture was investigated in both two columns and three mobile phases.

Diethanolamine dithiocarbamate is known to react with dichlorobis(ethylenediamine)cohalt(Ⅲ) chloride to form [Co(dtc)3](dtc=diethanolamine dithiocarbamate) in which two sulfur atoms of the dithiocarbamate are bound to cobalt. The complex is moderately soluble in acetone, but sparingly soluble in carbon disulfide. Kinetics and mechanisms of the reaction of dichlorobis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(Ⅲ) chloride with diethanolamine dithiocarbamate have been studied in aqueous solution. Activation parameters have been calculated from the kinetic data for the reaction and from these results a possible mechanism for the reaction has been proposed.

The extraction of flavanones such as naringin, narirutin, naringenin, hesperidin, and hesperetin from grapefruit peels was performed using subcritical water extraction (SWE), hot water extraction, and conventional methods such as methanol and ethanol extraction. We analyzed the total flavanone content using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for each extracting method. Among the three methods, SWE was the optimal method with optimal operating conditions of $170^{\circ}C$ temperature and 10 min operating time. The maximum total flavanone extracted was $86.539{\pm}3.52mg/g$ grapefruit peels. Moreover, we treated the extracts with 60% ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin and then analyzed the surface structure of the encapsulated compounds by field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). The results indicated that the encapsulation in ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin improved solubilization, and the inclusion complex could serve as food supplements.

Chemical modification of carbon nanotube (CNT) was carried out using $HNO_3$ and $H_2SO_4$ and characterized by analyzing the CNT before and after the modification using FT-IR and titration. Aggregation behaviors were investigated using a real-time video microscope after the chemically modified CNT(mCNT) had been dispersed in organic solvents such as toluene, dimethylformamide (DMF) and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) by ultrasonication. The mCNT showed better dispersion in polar sovents of DMF and NMP than the rCNT. CNT/ poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) films were prepared from solution DMF/PMMA solutions. The films containing mCNT also revealed the improved dispersion.

Tetrahydrotricyclopentadiene(below THTCPD) isomer is a good candidate materials for the high performance liquid fuel component because of its high density and heat of combustion value. The object of this study was to find out the proper reaction condition to improve the fluidity of THTCPD which is solid state at room temperature. Therefore, we have carried out isomerization reactions using aluminum chloride in the varying reaction condition such as reaction temperature and solvents. The results showed that when using aluminum chloride catalyst, THTCPD isomerization reaction was more active in the polar halogenated reaction media such as dichloromethane(methylene chloride: MC), 1,2-dichloroethane(ethylene chloride: EC) and chloroform than in non-polar hydrocarbon media such as n-Hexnae and toluene and was effected by reaction temperature variation.

Quinolone derivatives have been used as antibacterial agents. In this work, the competitive C-and O-acylation reaction of 3,4-dichloroacetophenone, as a model study for the synthesis of quinolone intermediate, is studied. The effects of various bases, solvents and the leaving groups of acylating agents on the ratio of C-versus O-acylation of 3,4-dichloroacetophenone are elucidated by means of employing ethylchloroformate, ethylphenylcarbonate and diethylcarbonate as acylating agents. In aprotic solvents, C-acylation reactions occur more predominantly as the size of metal ions composing bases becomes smaller. Regarding the effects of leaving groups, it is shown that C-acylation product is increased as the ability of leaving groups of acylating agents decreases. The ratio of C/O-acylation is also observed to be increased as the polarity of solvents decreases.

The nitrite-scavenging and antimutagenic effects of various solvent extracts from different parts of the loquat. were investigated to develope as source of functional food. The nitrite-scavenging and antimutagenic effects of fractions obtained from methanol extract were most highest in ethyl acetate fraction. Ethyl acetate fraction showed better results in the nitrite scavenging activity of 80% in leaf, 81% in seedless fruit, 73% in peel and 63% in seed. The antimutagenic effect showed strong ethyl acetate fraction of 53.1%, 48.3% in leaf and seedless fruit. The antimutagenic effect increased with increasing concentration of ethyl acetate fraction against mutagenicity induced by direct mutagen of IQ in Salmonella typhimurium TA 100. Addition of 2.5 mg and 5 mg of ethyl acetate fraction showed inhibitory effect of 65.5%, 71.2% in leaf and 63.4%, 69.2% in seedless fruit, respectively.

Termitomyces albuminosus has been recognized to have the best mushrooms in China, in terms of taste and aroma. The efficacy of these mushrooms has been recorded in the botanical list. However, research on the development of their artificial culture methods is necessary. In this study, we prepared an organic solvent extract and a hot water extract to understand the development of compounds and functional foods with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. The IC₅₀ value of DPPH radical scavenging activity of the hot water extract (TA4) was 1.5 mg/mL and the IC₅₀ value of the MeOH fraction (TA2) was 1.93 mg/mL. The anti-inflammatory activity was investigated by the inhibition of NO production. EtOAc fraction (TA1) is a crude extract, but 79% of NO production was inhibited at 100 ㎍/mL. NO was not produced at 200 ㎍/mL. TA1-5-6, from TA1 inhibited NO production by 15% as compared to the positive control at 15 ㎍/mL, and completely inhibited NO production at 30 ㎍/mL. No cytotoxicity was observed at 50 ㎍/mL. TA2-1-5 from the MeOH fraction (TA2) inhibited more than 75% of NO production at 30 ㎍/mL; cytotoxicity was very low even at 50 ㎍/mL. In conclusion, by selective solvent selection, it was possible to manufacture an extract with no cytotoxicity and excellent biological activities. Furthermore, the extracts showed potential for developing various functional foods and drugs.

The present study was undertaken to compare the effects exerted by different extraction solvents on the extraction of active components, such as polyphenols and flavonoids, from the dried leaves of Artemisia annua L. Different extracts were prepared using a heating mantle. The extraction solvents used were distilled water, and 20, 40, 60, 80, and 99.5% ethanol solution. It was observed that the 40% ethanol solution yielded the most significant results in the extraction of various phytochemicals with phenol concentration of 154.8±0.28 mg of gallic acid equivalent/g and flavonoid content of 25.28±0.01 mg quercetin equivalent/g. However, based on the extraction solvent used, varying trends were observed in the antioxidant, enzyme inhibition, and bacterial inhibition analyses. It was concluded that the extraction solvent should be selected based on the purpose of use of the dried leaves of A. annua L.

Phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities of ethanol extracts from barley sprouts were evaluated in this study. Barley sprouts were extracted using water and ethanol in various concentration (25, 50, and 75%) using reflux extraction methods. Ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) analysis showed that barley sprouts are mainly composed of rutin, gallic acid, ferulic acid, and ${\rho}$-coumaric acid. The 75% ethanol extracts had higher total polyphenol contents ($44.01{\pm}1.32mg/g$) and total flavonoid contents ($102.96{\pm}2.49mg/g$). 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging activity ($EC_{50}$ value: $1.65{\pm}0.02mg/mL$) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) diammonium salt radical scavenging activity ($EC_{50}$ value: $1.67{\pm}0.02mg/mL$) of the 75% ethanol extracts of barley sprouts were found to be the most effective. The 75% ethanol extracts of barley sprouts exhibited a strong reducing activity and ferric reducing antioxidant activity. As a result, the 75% ethanol extracts of barley sprouts showed stronger antioxidant activity than other extracts.
