2-Furyltriisopropoxytitanium was synthesized in situ through transmetallation of 2-furyllithium with chlorotitaniumtriisopropoxide. The compound could be isolated at room temperature and preserved at $-10^{\circ}C$ for several weeks. The reactivity 2-furyltriisopropoxytitanium to carbonyl compounds proved to be high. A complete aldehyde selectivity was observed in competition reactions of 2-furyltriisopropoxytitanium with a 1:1 mixture of aldehyde and ketone. In competition reactions of 2-furyltriisopropoxytitanium with a 1 : 1 mixture of ketone and ketone, the degree of ketone / ketone discrimination was substantial. In the reaction of 2-furyltriisopropoxytitanium to ketone-ester function, the reagent was solely reacted with the ketone function.

Purpose : Many inborn errors of metabolism can be completely cured with early detection and early treatment. This is why neonatal screening on inborn errors of metabolism is implemented worldwide. In this study, a cost-benefit analysis was performed on the neonatal screening of phenylketonuria and congenital hypothyroidism in Korea. Methods : This study included 2,908,231 neonates who took the neonatal screening on phenylketonuria and congenital hypothyroidism in Korea from January 1991 to December 2003. From those neonates, the incidence rates of phenylketonuria and congenital hypothyroidism were measured. Furthermore, based on 495,000 babies born in 2002, were calculated and compared the total costs in case when neonatal screening on phenylketonuria and congenital hypothyroidism is implemented, and when not. Results : If the neonatal screening on phenylketonuria and congenital hypothyroidism is implemented, benefits far exceed costs at a ratio of 1.77 : 1 in phenylketonuria, and 11.11 : 1 in congenital hypothyroidism. In terms of wons, the present neonatal screening on phenylketonuria and congenital hypothyroidism will gain us more than 29 billion wons every year. Conclusion : This study only concerns the monetary aspects of the neonatal screening. Therefore, the benefits of the neonatal screening is underestimated by ignoring precious but not measurable values such as quality of life. However, the present neonatal screening on phenylketonuria and congenital hypothyroidism is found to be beneficial and should continue for the good of the nation as well as that of the patients.

Inductive and resonance effects play an important role in determining carbony) stretching frequencies of ketones. Hydrogen bonding, dielectric effects, and steric effects are all factors which determine the carbonyl stretching frequency, νC=O of ketones in solution. The $ν_{C=O}$ frequencies were shifted by approximately 27$cm^{-1}$ each by substituting to a phenyl group for a methyl group in acetone. The $ν_{C=O}$ frequency for ketones shifted differently in various solvents and increased with increasing the volume ratio of the ketones in water solutions. The $ν_{C=O}$ frequency for ketones shifts continously at constant concentration of ketone in solutions of $(CH_3)_2SO/CCl_4$and$CHCl_3/CCl_4$ with changing of the mole ratio of two solvents. The $ν_{C=O}$ frequency was also affected by changing concentration in either $CCl_4$ or $(CH_3)_2SO$ solution and in either $CCl_4$or $CHCl_3$ solution.

Purpose : Malformation of cortical development(MCD) constitutes an important etiology of intractable epilepsy and is considered an indication for surgical treatments, though their efficacy is limited and variable depending on MCD's location or distribution. Ketogenic diets are widely known to be effective, but as little study has been made concerning their efficacy on epilepsy with MCD, we evaluated the efficacy of ketogenic diets on MCD patients compared with that of epileptic surgery, which is more invasive. Methods : We performed retrospective studies and analyse on 30 patients with MCD diagnosed by brain MRI and treated with ketogenic diets for intractable epilepsy since 1998, checking decreases in their seizure episodes after starting the diets. Results : Cortical dysplasia was observed in 24(80.0 percent) patients as the most common type of MCD. Also, MCD was observed in unilateral hemisphere most commonly, in 23(76.7 percent) patients; it was observed in both hemispheres in 7(23.3 percent) patients. Nine(30.0 percent) out of 30 patients became seizure-free after starting ketogenic diets, and 14(46.7 percent) patients experienced 50 percent seizure reductions as well. Age of starting the diet or the duration of epilepsy period before starting showed no statistical relationship with the efficacy of the diet. Though the younger the patient and the longer the treatment the more effective the diet seemed to be, there was no statistical correlation between them. The location of MCD showed no significance neither. Conclusion : Considering various limits and invasiveness of surgical treatment, a ketogenic diet could be a good tool in treating children with intractable epilepsy with MCD.

Volatile flavor components from various edible portions of Capsella bursa-pastoris were collected by simultaneous steam distillation-extraction (SDE) method using diethyl ether as solvent. Essential oils were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Thirty four volatile flavor components, including 12 hydrocarbons, 2 aldehydes, 2 ketones, 5 alcohols, 1 ester, 10 acids and 2 miscellaneous ones were confirmed in whole samples. Thirty one components, including 11 hydrocarbons, 5 aldehydes, 4 ketones, 5 alcohols, 1 esters and 5 miscellaneous ones were confirmed in leaves. Twenty four components, including 5 hydrocarbons, 1 aldehyde, 2 ketones, 6 alcohols, 2 esters, 1 acid and 7 miscellaneous ones were confirmed in roots. The kinds and amounts of volatile flavor components revealed different patterns depending upon various edible portions. Relatively greater numbers of volatile flavor components were identified in leaves compared with roots of these wild plants. The characteristic aroma of Capsella bursa-pastoris appeared to be due to combination of C6 alcohol and acids, terpene alcohol and sulfur containing compounds.

A one-pot Beckmann rearrangement for the preparation of amides from ketones is described using the silica sulfuric acid under Microwave irradiation. Advantages of this method are regioselectivity with high yields in a simple operation and short reaction time, in which the mole ratio of acid and ketone was 1:2 and it should be greener than the currently used systems.

To find clinical significance of routine "dipstick" urinalysis on admission, we analyzed the results of the "dipstick" urinalyses performed in 844 patients admitted to the pediatric department of Yeungnam University hospital from May 1, 1983 to October 31, 1984. Ketonuria, proteinuria, hematuria and glucosuria were found in 9.5%, 4.9%, 2.4% and 1.1% of the patients respectively. There were no significant differences by sex, age and presence of fever. However, proteinuria and ketonuria were found more frequently in the patients with dehydration (p<0.05). The degree of ketonuria showed a positive association w:th the severity of dehydration (p<0.005). All of the patients with proteinuria and ketonuria showed negative results on follow up. However, among 13 patients with hematura, 9 patients showed negative results and 4 patients had persistent hematuria on follow up. These 4 patients were found to have chronic pyelonephritis (2), asymptomatic urinary tract infection (1) and benign recurrent hematuria (1). This routine "dipstick" urinalysis on admission seems to be simple test which is useful in detecting unrecognized kidney and other urinary tract disease.

당뇨병으로 인한 태아의 위험은 당뇨병의 유전요인보다는 임신부의 대사 장애에 의한 것으로 당뇨병 형태에 따른 태아의 위험 차이는 없는 것으로 추축할 수 있다. 그러나 제 1형 당뇨병임신부는 케톤산혈증이 발생할 가능성이 높고 케톤산 혈증이 발생하면 태아 사망의 가능성도 높아진다. 또 제 1형 당뇨병임신부는 당뇨병성 혈관합병증이 동반될 가능성이 많아 자기의 주 수 보다 체중이 미달되는 경우와 조산 및 임신 중 고혈압질환이 발생할 위험성이 높아진다. 제 2형 당뇨병임산부는 임신부가 비만일 경우 거대아 출산 및 임신 중 고혈압질환이 발생할 위험이 높아진다. 그러나 대부분의 합병증은 임신 전과 임신기간 동안 양호한 혈당조절로 감소시킬 수 있다.
