The reduction of nitrogen-containing compounds (NC) containing the model crude methylnaphthalene oil (CMNO) of 5 compounds system was experimentally studied by solvent extraction. The model CMNO consisting of 3 kinds of NC including quinolone (QU), iso-quinoline (IQU), indole(IN) and 2 kinds of bicyclic aromatic compounds such as 1-methylnaphthalene (1MNA), 2-methylnaphthalene (2MNA) as raw materials, as well as the aqueous solution of formamide as a solvent, were used. The increase in the volume fraction of water to the solvent at the initial state (y_w,0) sharply decreased, but the distribution coefficient and the yield of NC conversely increased the selectivity of NC based on 2MNA, and an increase in the volume fraction of solvent to feed (S/F) simultaneously increased the distribution coefficient, yield and selectivity of NC. The yields of QU, IQU and IN under constant conditions (y_w,0 = 0.1, S/F = 1, equilibrium temperature 303 K) were 30%, 31% and 10%, respectively, and selectivity was 15, 15 and 20, respectively. From the excellent yield and selectivity of NC, the formamide extraction method of this study was expected as a method for reducing the NC contained in the model CMNO.

The crude methylnaphthalene oil (CMNO) contains nitrogen compounds (NCs) such as quinoline (QU), isoquinoline (IQU), and indole (IN). These NCs in the CMNO are treated as impurities contained in the CMNO due to contamination of the atmospheric environment and unpleasant odors. In order to improve the quality of CMNO, this study examined the effect of extraction experimental factors on the reduction of NCs contained in CMNO using CMNO as a raw material and an aqueous formamide solution as a solvent, respectively. The increase in the volume ratio of solvent to feed in initial (S/F)₀ in initial increased the distribution coefficient of NCs and the selectivity of NCs in reference to 2-methylnaphthalene (2MNA). Additionally, an increase in operating temperature (T) increased the distribution coefficient of NCs but conversely decreased selectivity. The compositions of QU, IQU, and IN in the raffinate oil recovered through equilibrium extraction under a constant condition (volume fraction of water to solvent in initial (y_w,0) = 0.1, (S/F)₀ = 9, T = 303 K, liquid-liquid contacting time = 72 h) were reduced by about 58.5 wt%, 61.9 wt%, and 73.4 wt%, respectively, compared to those of CMNO. The formamide extraction method in this study was expected to be an effective reduction method for NCs contained in CMNO.

To preconcentrate trace elements, microgram amounts of 5 heavy metals (Cu, Co, Ni, Zn and Cd) were precipitated with 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine) and metal oxinates were extracted with stearic acid. And then each of the molten stearic acid extract with stearic acid. And then each of the molten stearic acid extract was poured into a glass ring and cooled for specimen preparation. The obtained specimens were analyzed by X-ray fluorescene spectrometry. And then conditions of precipitation formation and extraction, reproducibility, sensitivity and detection limit were observed. The relative standard deviation of specimen preparation was 1.0~5.7% and the detection limit was 5~$50{\mu}g$/100ml. The proposed preconcentration procedure exhibited a considerable inhancement and simplicity in preparing specimens.

Kinetic studies on the reaction of isoquinoline with para-substituted benzylbromides were conducted under various pressures (1 ~1000 bar) in acetonitrile. From the rate constants obtained, the activation parameters such as$\DeltaV^{\neq}, \Delta\beta^{\neq}, \DeltaH^{\neq}, \DeltaS^{\neq}, \DeltaG^{\neq}$ and Ea were evaluated. Reaction rate increasing the pressure and temperature. The activation compressibility coefficient and the activation entropy showed negative values. From the substituent effect and the results, it was found that the reaction proceeds through $S_N2$ mechanism, but the structure of transition state was slightly changed with substituents and pressure.

A number of 7-[3-hydroxy-(4-methylthio or 3-methylthiomethyl)pyrrolidinyl]quinoline-3-carboxylic acids were synthesized by condensation of 7-fluoro substituted quinoline-3-carboxylic acid with 3-hydroxy-4-methylthiopyrrolidine or 3-hydroxy-4-methylthiomethylpyrrolidine. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of them were tested against twenty species of Gram-positive or Gram-negative microorganisms. It showed remarkable antibacterial activity, particularly against Gram-positive microorganisms. Among those 1-cyclopropyl-5-amino-6,8-difluoro 7-(3-hydroxy-4-methylthiomethylpyrrolidinyl)-1,4-dihyd ro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid(12d) and 1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-8-methoxy-7-(3-hydroxy-4-methylthiometby1pyrrolinyl)-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinocarboxylic acid(12g) showed the most potent in vitro antibacterial activity, and 12d showed better antibacterial activity against MRSA compared to ciprofloxacin and sparfloxacin.

Solvent extraction using aqueous solutions is presumed as one of the most effective methods applicable to in situ conditions without excavation of contaminated soils. Laboratory permeameter soil flushing test is performed to describe the process of solvent extraction of contaminants absorbed on soil particles. When the permeameter tests conducted, diffusion of contaminants through the permeameter flexible-wall was considered for adjusting the remediation percentage. Input and output balance for concentration was well matched in the permeameter tests. Nitrobenzene diffused so excessively (approximately 75%) that it was not suitable for the permeameter desorption tests. No biodegradation was detected in the soil samples.

6-[(N-3,4-Dibromophenyl)amino]-7-chloro-5,8-quinolinedione(FCK13) was tested for antifungal activities. The MIC values were determined by the two-fold dilution method. The therapeutic potential of RCK13 had been assessed in comparison with ketoconazole and fluconazole against systemic infections with candida albicans in normal mice. RCK13 had ED50,0.80$\pm$0.21 mg/kg but ketoconazole had ED50, 8.00$\pm$0.73 mg/kg respectively. And administered RCK13 at the ED50 for 14 days improved survival rates as well as ketoconazole. Acute oral toxicity studies of RCK13 were carried out in ICR mice of both sexes. These acute oral toxicities of RCK13 were low and LD50 values were over 2,850 mg/kg in ICR mice. The genotoxicities of RCK13 had been evaluated. RCK13 was negative in Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium and chromosomal aberration test in CHL cells. The clastogenicity was tested on the RCK13 with in vivo mouse micronucleus assay. RCK13 did not show any clastogenic effect in mouse peripheral blood and was negative in mouse micronucleus assay. These results indicate that RCK13 has no genotoxic potential under these experimental conditions.

An experimental study for mesophase pitch prepared from coal tar pitch has been carried out to clarify the rheological behaviors in the molten state. The apparent viscosity, shear stress, shear rate, Qunoline insoluble(QI), and softening point(SP) change were investigated especially. The conditions to increase mesophase content during polymerization were heat treatment time of 5 hrs, catalyst concentration of 3% and reaction temperature of $420^{\circ}C$. Apparent viscosity change with increase in temperature of pitches was different according to the heat treatment conditions and apparent viscosity increased with increasing heat treatment temperature, heat treatment time, contents of mesophase, on the contrary, fluidity is decreased. Rheological behavior of molten mesophase pitches at about $270^{\circ}C$ showed Newtonian behavior below $375^{\circ}C$ and non-Newtonian behavior above $270^{\circ}C$, the flow behavior was analyzed with Casson model.
