Organic electroluminescence devices (ELD) with hetero-junction structure were fabricated utilizing poly(p-phenylne vinylene) (PPV) as emitting layer and electron transport layer (ETL). 2-(4-biphenyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD) was used as an electron transport agent. Copolymers with stilbene type comonomers, such as poly(styrene-co-PVTS), poly(styrene-co-MeO-PVTS) and poly(styrene-co-MeO-ST) were synthesized to be used as a matrix polymer to disperse electron transport agent (PBD). Among the hetero-junction EL devices fabricated with the above materials, the device with poly(styrene-co-PVTS) as matrix polymer for ETL gave the highest luminance ($120.7cd/m^2$, 13 V). EL devices made with poly(styrene-co-MeO-PVTS) or poly(styrene-co-MeO-ST) matrix exhibited lower luminance than the one with polystyrene matrix and the single layer EL (ITO/PPV/Mg) device.

A series of novel benzimidazole derivatives bearing a heterocyclic ring as oxadiazole (21-32), thiadiazole (33-34), triazole (35-36) were synthesized and evaluated for their activities against Coxsackie virus B3 and B6 in Vero cells. Compounds 21-26, 31-36 with moieties of 2'-pyridyl, 3'-pyridyl and 4'-pyridyl at the 2-position and oxadiazoles, thiadiazole, or triazole substituent at the 4- or 5-position generally displayed activities against CVB3 and CVB6. Especially compound 24 ($IC_{50}=1.08{\mu}g/mL$, SI = 61.7 against CVB3) was the promising candidate as lead compound for anti-enteroviral drug. It was observed in the incorporation of heterocyclic rings in benzimidazole at the 5-position could enhance their biological activities.

The synthetic method of pyrazole was performed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with dipolarophile instead of the reaction between diazomethane and acetylene. The cycloaddition mechanism and reactivity of 3-phenyloxadiazole derivatives with dipolarophiles was investigated. In order to investigate the mechanism and reactivity of this cycloaddition, the effect of substituents having various kinds of electron withdrawing or releasing groups were examinated. Considering the effect of substituents, an electron withdrawing group attached at the 4-carbon position in 3-phenyloxadiazole derivatives decrease the reaction rate because of the lack of electron density in oxadiazole ring. The reaction rate of 3-phenyloxadiazole derivatives with dipolarophiles were more conveniently measured using UV than using a volumetric analysis which was used before. From the result of this study, it was that the cycloaddition was found to be a first-order reaction depending upon the concentration of 3-phenyloxadiazole only.

While conducting an in vitro screening of various medicinal plant extracts, an aqueous extract of Rosa rugosa Radix (ARR) was found to exhibit a distinct vasorelaxant activity. ARR induced a concentration-dependent relaxation of the phenylephrine-precontracted aorta. This effect disappeared with the removal of functional endothelium. Pretreatment of the aortic tissues with NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) or 1H-[1,2,4]-oxadiazole-[4,3-]-quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) completely inhibited the relaxation induced by ARR. ARR-induced vascular relaxations were also markedly attenuated by addition of diltiazem or verapamil. However, the relaxant effect of ARR was not blocked by pretreatment with indomethacine, tetraethylammonium (TEA), glibenclamide, atropine, or propranolol. Taken together, the present study suggests that ARR dilates vascular smooth muscle via endothelium-dependent NO/cGMP signaling.

Organic light emitting diodes (OLED) thin films were fabricated by Electrostatic spray deposition (ESD). In this study, we reported the thickness, morphology, current efficiency, luminescence of OLED fabricated by ESD. These results were compared with the spin coating method, and showed that also ESD is a good fabrication method for OLED because of its characteristics similar with the results using spin coating. The active layer consists of organic blends with Poly(N-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), 2-(4-Biphenyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (PBD), N,N'-Bis(3-methylphenyl) -N,N'-bis(phenyl)-benzidine (TPD), Tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium(III) (Ir(ppy)3), and the structure of OLED consists of aluminum (Al), lithium fluoride (LiF), organic blends, PEDOT:PSS and Indium-tin-oxide (ITO), which was used as the top cathode, cathode interfacial layer, emitting layer and bottom anode, respectively. The results suggest that Electrostatic spray deposition is a promising method for the next generation of OLED fabrication since it has a probability fabricating large-area thin films.

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) and polymer light emitting diodes (PLED) have been regarded as the candidate for the next generation light source and flat panel display. Currently, the most common OLED industrial fabrication technology used in producing real products utilizes a fine shadow mask during the thermal evaporation of small molecule materials. However, due to high potential including low cost, easy process and scalability, various researches about solution process are progressed. Since polymer has some disadvantages such as short lifetime and difficulty of purifying, small molecule OLED (SMOLED) can be a good alternative. In this work, we have demonstrated high efficient solution-processed OLED with small molecule. We use CBP (4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazolebiphenyl) as a host doped with green dye (Ir(ppy)3 (fac-tris(2-phenyl pyridine) iridium)). PBD (2-(4-biphenylyl)-5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole) and TPD (N,N'diphenyl-N,N'-Bis (3-methylphenyl)-[1,1-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine) are employed as an electron transport material and a hole transport material. And TPBi (2,2',2''-(1,3,5-phenylene) tris (1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazole)) is used as an hole blocking layer for proper hole and electron balance. With adding evaporated TPBi layer, the current efficiency was very improved. Among various parameters, we observed the property of OLED device by changing the thickness of hole transporting layer and solvent which can dissolve organic material. We could make small molecule OLED device with finding proper conditions.

The ethanol extract of Persicaria perfoliata (EPP) induced relaxation of the phenylephrine-precontracted aorta in a dose-dependent manner, which was abolished by removal of functional endothelium. Pretreatment of the aortic tissues with NG-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) or 1H-[1,2,4}-oxadiazole-[4,3-${\alpha}$)-quinixalin-1-one (ODQ) inhibited the relaxation induced by EPP. However, EPP-induced relaxation was not blocked by pretreatment with indomethacine, glibenclamide, tetraethylammonium (TEA), atropine, or propranolol. Incubation of endothelium-intact thoracic aortic ring with EPP increased the production of cGMP, which was also blocked by pretreatment with L-NAME or ODQ. These results suggest that EPP dilates vascular smooth muscle via endothelium-dependent NO/cGMP signaling.

The effect of temperature on the fluorescence quenching of 2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-5-(1-naphthyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (MPNO1), 2-(4-Methoxyphenyl)-5-(2-naphthyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazote(MPNO2), by aniline, and 2-Phenylindole (2-PI) by CCk, in toluene by steady state method and in benzene by time-resolved method have been carried out in the temperature range 30 - 70$\circ$C. The Stem-Volmer (S-V) plots, I$_0$/I against quencher concentration [Q] at different temperanares show positive deviations. The fluorescence lifetimes determined at different temperatures show no systematic variations and the variations being within the experimental error, the average values of lifetimes $ $\tau$ (t) are taken for further calculations. Rate constants such as Stem-Volmer quenching constants K$_sv}$, quenching rate parameters k$_q$ and k'$_q$, static quenching constant V and kinetic distance r are determined using the modified Stem-Volmer equation and sphere of action static quenching model. In order to see whether the reactions are diffusion limited, equations k$_q$ = e$^{-Eq/RT}$ and k'$_q$ = e$^{-Eq/RT}$ are used to determine the values of E$_q$ and E'$_q$, the activation energies for collisional quenching and the values of E$_q$ are 14.53. 17.28 and 16.20 kJ mole$^{-1}$ for MPNO1, MPNO2 and 2-PI respectively and the values of E'$_q$ are 14.62 and 17.73 for MPNO1 and MPNO2 respectively. From the magnitudes of various quantities it has been concluded that the reactions are diffusion limited and the observed positive deviations in the S-V plot are due to static and dynamic quenching.

Interfacial properties of electrode and organic thin layer is one of the most important factor in performing a Light Emitting Diodes(LED). Phthalocyanine copper was used as a buffer layer to improve interface characteristic, so that device efficiency was improved. In this study, LEDs were fabricated as like structures of Indium-Tin-Oxide (ITO) / N,N' -Diphenyl-N,N'-di(m-tolyl)-benzidine (TPD) / 8-Hydroxyquinoline aluminum(Alq) / Aluminum(Al) and Indium-Tin-Oxide(ITO) / N,N'-Diphenyl-N,N' -di(m-tolyl)-benzidine(TPD) / 2-(4-Biphenylyl)-5(4-tert-butyl-phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole(PBD) / Aluminum(Al). In these devices, CuPC was layered at electrode/organic layer interface. As position is changing and thickness is changing, devices showed characteristic luminescence efficiency and luminescence inensity respectively. We showed in this study that luminescence efficiency was improved with CuPC layer in LEDs. The efficiency of device with layer CuPC is higher than that of 2 layer CuPC. However, the luminescence of 2 layer CuPC device got higher value.

The butanol extract of Euonymus alatus (BEA) induced dose-dependent relaxation of phenylephrine-precontracted aorta, which was abolished by removal of functional endothelium. Pre-treatment of the endothelium-intact aortic tissues with $N^G-nitro-L-arginine methylester$ (L-NAME), and 1 H-[1,2,4]-oxadiazole- [$4,3-{\alpha}$]-quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ) inhibited the relaxation induced by BEA, respectively. BEA-induced vascular relaxation was not blocked by glibenclamide, tetraethylammonium (TEA), indomethacin, atropine, propranolol, verapamil, and diltiazem, respectively. Moreover, BEA inhibits phenylephrine-induced vascular constriction in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that BEA relaxes vascular smooth muscle via endothelium-dependent nitric oxide/cGMP signaling.
