The kinetics of the hydrolysis of dihydro-1, 4-oxathiin derivatives were investigated by ultraviolet spectrophotometry in H2O at $25^{\circ}C.$ A rate equation which can be applied over a wide pH range was obtained. The substituent effects on the hydrolysis of dihydro-1, 4-oxathiin derivatives were studied and the rate of hydrolysis was shown to be accelerated by electron accepting groups. Final product of the hydrolysis was 2-(2-hydroxyethylthio)acetoacet-anilide enol form. On the basis of rate equations derived and judging from hydrolysis products obtained and from general base effect and substituent effects, plausible mechanism of the hydrolysis in various pH range have been proposed. Below pH 3.5, the hydrolysis was initiated by the protonation and followed by the addition of water to 2-carbon. Above pH 10.0, the hydrolysis was proceeded by the addition of hydroxide to 2-carbon. In the range of pH 4.0∼10.0, the addition of water to dihydro-1,4-oxathiin is rate controlling step.

$H_5PMo_{10}V_2O_{40}$ ($PMo_{10}V_2$) catalyst chemically immobilized on sulfur-containing mesoporous carbon (S-MC) was prepared, and it was applied to the benzyl alcohol oxidation reaction. S-MC was synthesized by a templating method using SBA-15 and p-toluenesulfonic acid as a templating agent and a carbon precursor, respectively. S-MC was then modified to have a positive charge, and thus, to provide sites for the immobilization of $PMo_{10}V_2$. By taking advantage of the overall negative charge of $[PMo_{10}V_2O4_{40}]^{5-}$, $PMo_{10}V_2$ catalyst was immobilized on the S-MC support as a charge matching component. It was revealed that $PMo_{10}V_2$ species were finely and molecularly dispersed on the S-MC via chemical immobilization. In the vapor-phase oxidation of benzyl alcohol, $PMo_{10}V_2$/S-MC catalyst showed higher conversion of benzyl alcohol and higher yield for benzaldehyde and benzoic acid than unsupported $PMo_{10}V_2$ catalyst. The enhanced catalytic performance of $PMo_{10}V_2$/S-MC was due to fine dispersion of $PMo_{10}V_2$ species on the S-MC via chemical immobilization.

최근 자동차 대체 연료로 가솔린에 10% 무수에탄올이 혼합된 Gasohol 사용에 관한 관심이 고조되고 있으며, 이는 Gasohol이 자동차 배기 가스중의 일산화탄소 및 탄화수소 함유량을 감소시켜 대기 오염을 줄일 수 있기 때문이다. Gasohol에 사용되는 무수에탄올의 농도는 99.5% 이상이어야 하며, 이러한 고순도의 에탄올을 제조하기 위해서는 물과 에탄올의 공비 혼합물(95.6% 에탄올)로부터 공비증류, 분자체 흡착, 투과증발과 같은 분리 조작을 이용하여 물을 제거하는 공정이 필요하다. 현재 에탄올 탈수에는 공비증류가 많이 사용되고 있으나 공비증류는 에너지 사용량이 많을 뿐더러 유독한 Entrainer를 첨가하기 때문에 투과증발과 같은 저 에너지 소비형, 환경친화적인 공정으로의 전환이 이루어지고 있다. 에탄올 탈수용 투과증발 플랜트는 전세계 20여개가 가동되고 있으며, 상업화된 플랜트의 대부분은 독일의 Deutsche Carbone사가 제조한 PVA/PAN 투과증발 복합막을 사용하고 있다. 투과증발 시스템은 물에 대한 친화도가 높은 투과증발막 및 모듈, 기타 분리 구동력을 높여주기 위한 Heater, 진공펌프, 냉각기, 열 교환기 등의 주변 설비로 구성되며, 투과증발 시스템 개발을 위해서는 우수한 막/모듈 제조와 아울러 최적 공정 설계 기술 개발이 필수적이라 하겠다.

- Mutation process and substrate induction of 7i-ichoderma viride cellobiohydrolase were investigated by immunological techniques. Since mutants of Trichodemza uiride such as QM9123, QM9414, TKO41 and MCG77 produced immunologically same cellobiohydrolase, it may be that the mutation be occurred in the reguratory gene rather than in the structural gene of cellobiohydrolase. a-Cellulose and Solka Floc were found to be the best inducer for the production of cellobiohydrolase in Trichodemza viride culture compared to low molecular weight inducer such as carboxylmethyl cellulose and cellobiose.

Rate constants for the hydrolysis of para-substituted phenyl N-(p-chlorobenzoyl)chloroformimidate (I) derivatives in 1 : 4 dioxane-water at $25^{\circ}C$ have been determined. Rate data, substituent effect $(\rho\>{\rho}^+)$, product analysis and MO calculation indicate that the uncatalyzed reaction proceeds through an $S_N1$ mechanism involving the formation of azocarbonium ion (II) below pH 3.0, and the base-catalyzed reaction proceeds through an $S_N2$ mechanism via transition state (III) above pH 4.0. The relative stability of four peri planar conformational isomers were (E-ap) > (Z-ap) > (E-sp) > (Z-ap), respectively, and the most stable stereo structures shows that the Y-substituted phenyl group $(C_6H_4-Y)$ occupy vertical $(90^{\circ})$ position on the plane of the benzimidochloroformyl group in (E-ap) conformer. The nucleophilic substitution of water molecule occurs by sigma attack to the activatived azomethine carbon atom of (I) derivatives.

The rate constants for the nucleophilic addition reactions of thioglycolic acid to vinylsulfilimine(VSI) derivatives(p-OCH3, H, p-Cl and p-Br) were determined by an ultraviolet spectrophotometric method, and rate equations which can be applied over a wide pH range were obtained. On the basis of rate equation, general base catalysis and substituent effect, a plausible addition reaction mechanism was proposed: Below pH 3.0, the reaction was proceeded via the addition of neutral molecule to carbon-carbon double bond after protonation at the nitrogen atom of the sulfilimine, and in the pH range of 3.0 to 9.0, the neutral molecule and its anion attacked to carbon-carbon double bond competitively. Above pH 9.0, sulfide anion added to the double bond (Michael type addition).

Aloe vera extract was fermented by Lactobacillus casei. The ability of fermented Aloe vera (FAV) as an antioxidant to protect against $CCl_4$-induced oxidative stress and hepatotoxicity in rats was investigated. The rats were administered orally with various doses of FAV with 50, 100 mg/kg for 14 consecutive days. For this study, we not only tested activity of various plasma enzymes (AST, ALT), which are used as indicators of liver disease, but also checked those change of liver components such as superoxide dismutase and catalase activity. Pretreatment of FAV for two weeks significantly reduced the elevated plasma enzyme activities induced by $CCl_4$. Pretreatment of FAV also restored the hepatic enzyme, malonedialdehyde (MDA) formation. The results indicate that FAV has a protective effect against acute hepatotoxicity induced by the administration of $CCl_4$ in rats, and that the hepatoprotective effects of FAV may be due to both the inhibition of lipid peroxidation and the increase of antioxidant activity.

Boron nitride nanotubes and carbon nanotubes are the most representative one-dimensional nanostructures, and have received great attention as reinforcement for multifunctional composites for their excellent physical properties. The two nanotubes have similar excellent mechanical stiffness, strength, and heat conduction properties. Therefore, the reinforcing effect of these two nanotubes is greatly influenced by the properties of their interface with the polymer matrix. In this paper, recent comparative studies on the reinforcing effect of boron nitride nanotubes and carbon nanotubes through experimental pull-out test and in-silico simulation are summarized. In addition, the conflicting aspect of the two different nanotubes with structural defects in their side wall is discussed on the viscoelastic damping performance of nanocomposites.

The performance of carbon fiber is important for the production of these high-quality polymer composite materials such as CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic). For this purpose, it is essential to use an optimized spinning process for improving the mechanical, physical, and structural properties of the precursor fiber, which greatly affects the properties of the carbon fiber, and the use of a suitable precursor polymer. In this study, the content of MAA (Methacrylic Acid), MAA injection time, and concentration of AIBN (2,2'-Azobis(2-methylpropionitrile)) were set as parameters for the polymer synthesis process, and Poly(AN-co-MAA) (poly(acrylonitrile-co-methacrylic acid)) was polymerized by solution polymerization. Poly(AN-co-MAA) with a molecular weight of 305,138 g/mol and an MAA ratio of 4.2% was dissolved in DMF (N,N-dimethylformamide) at a concentration of 16.0 wt%, and then a precursor fiber was prepared through dry-jet-wet spinning. The precursor fiber had a tensile strength of ~1.06 GPa and a tensile modulus of ~22.01 GPa, and no voids and structural defects were observed on the fiber.

3D-QSAR on the inhibitory activities of 6-bromobenzo-[4,5]imidazo[$1,2{\alpha}$]-pyridin-8,9-diones analogues as substrate molecule were studied quantitatively using CoMFA and CoMSIA methods. The statistical values of CoMFA model was better predictability and fitness than CoMSIA model. The inhibitory activities according to the optimized CoMFA 2 model were dependent on the steric field (90.4%). From the CoMFA contour maps, it is found that the branched side chain as R-group will be directly attached to the carbon atom (ipso carbon) of substituent, the inhibitory activities had expected to increase. The positive charge favor groups were placed in the position between imidazol ring and pyridine ring, the inhibitory activities would increase. And if the groups of liner type will be substituted, hydrophilic favor group would raise inhibitory activities.
