Complexation of cesium ion by p-tert-butylcalix[6]arene ethyl ester was studied by NMR spectroscopy in nonpolar $CDCl_3$ and polar acetone-$d_6$ and the results were compared with each other. Analysis of temperature dependent $^1H$ spectra and titration curves reveals that both solvents result in a 1 : 1 cone-form complex with nonpolar $CDCl_3$yielding a more tightly bound one than acetone-$d_6$. Unexpectedly, at very low temperature, we have found that two phenyl ring proton peaks of equal intensity appear both in $CDCl_3$and in acetone-$d_6$ solution which gradually collapse and eventually coalesce into a single line as temperature is raised. This observation could be interpreted in terms of the chemical exchange through direct and/or indirect interconversion between two equivalent conformations possible the complex in both solvents over the temperature range observed. And broadening of $^{133}Cs$ (I = 7/2) nmr line with increasing temperature has also been observed, indicating the exchange of $^{133}Cs$ ion between the complex and the solvent. From numerical fitting of lineshape changes for one-dimensional $^1H$ and $^{133}Cs$ spectra, the exchange rate constants and other relevant parameters for this conformational interconversion and the complex-solvent exchange were deduced.

Cobalt(III) complexes with sexidentate ligands, N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-amino-ethyl)-1,2-ethanediamine (ten), -1,3-propanediamine (ttn), -1,4-butanediamine (ttmd), -(R,R)-and -(R,S)-2,4-pentanediamine (tptn) were prepared, and the characterization of d-d absorption band on the variation of chelate ring size and conformation of these complexes were studied by means of electronic spectra. The first d-d absorption bands of $[Co(L)]^{3+}$ complexes are shifted to smaller wave numbers in the order. ttn > (R,R)-tptn > ten > ttmd${\simeq}$(R,S)-tptn for (L). The UV, $^{13}C$ NMR, and Circular Dichroism studies indicate that the R,S-tptn ligand of $[Co(R,S-tptn)]^{3+}$ complex coodinates to cobalt(Ⅲ) ion as a sexidentate with one methyl group in axial position.

In liquids NMR, $^{1}H$ is the most widely observed nucleus, which is not the case in solids NMR. The reason is due to the strong homo-dipolar interactions between the hydrogen atoms which mask the useful chemical shift information. Therefore we must remove the strong homo-dipolar interactions in order to get structural information, which can be investigated by the isotropic chemical shift. There are two ways of obtaining it. One is the ultra-fast MAS of ca. 70 kHz spinning speed, which has become available only recently. The other way is devising a pulse sequence which can remove the strong homo-dipolar interaction. In the latter way, MAS with a moderate spinning rate of a few kHz, is enough to remove the chemical shift anisotropy. In this report, 1D-CRAMPS and 2D MASFSLG techniques are utilized and their results will be compared. This kind of highresolution $^{1}H$ NMR for solids, should become a valuable analytical tool in the understanding and the developing of a new class of hydrogen storage materials. Here ammonium borane $-NH_{3}BH_{3}$, whose hydrogen content is high, is used as a sample.

Cucurbitacin D and F, the protostane type triterpenoid of S. sorbifolia, were isolated with chromatograpic method and used as the standard substances for quantitative analysis. The compounds were identified with $^1H$-NMR, FAB-MS and UV spectrophotometer. They were separated on YMC-Pack ODS-AQ(303)[$250{\times}4.6mm$ I.D., $S-5{\mu}m$, 120A] column by HPLC. Cucurbitacin F was detected at 10.73mg/kg in cortex of S. sorbifolia, but cucurbitacin D was not. The compounds were shown to exihibit significant cytotoxicity($ED_{50}$<$0.1{\mu}g/mL$) against several tumor cell lines and acute toxicity(cucurbitacin D: 4.7mg/kg/day, cucurbitacin F: 2.5mg/kg/day) against BDF-1 mouse.

The structures of the self-complementary decamer duplexes, $d(ACGTATACGT)_2$ (TATA-duplex) and $d(ACGTTAACGT)_2$, (TTAA-duplex) has been obtained in solution by proton NMR spectroscopy and restrained molecular dynamics. The duplexes are essentially B-type, with distortions apparent at the TATA and TTAA steps. Theses distortions and their effects on dynamics have been investigated by the measurement of imino proton exchange time of the base-pairs. The unusual opening kinetics of central A T base-pairs could be correlated to the abnormal structural properties of the corresponding sequences.

Four 5,8-epidioxy sterols were isolated from the marine sponge Plakortis simplex. Their structures were completely determined by an extensive NMR analysis and comparison with NMR data of similar compounds for absolute stereochemistry of the side chain. The compounds were assigned as 5,8-epidioxy- (24S)-ethylcholesta-6,22(E),25-trien-3-ol(1), 5,8-epidioxy-(24S)-methylcholesta- 6,22(E)-dien-3-ol(2), 5,8-epidioxycholesta-6,22(E)-dien-3-ol(3) and 5,8- epidioxycholesta-6-en-3-ol (4).

3-(2-benzotriazolovinyl)thiophene (BVT) was synthesized by the connection of the thiophene with the electron-withdrawing group, benzotriazole, through the vinylene. Its structure was confirmed by FT-IR, $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR and 2D hetero-cosy spectroscopy. Both BVT and 3-octylthiophene (OT) were copolymerized and showed an average molecular weight of 12000 (PDI 2.67) and 15000 (PDI 2.55), respectively. The copolymers were dissolved in the organic solvent such as chloroform, THF, TCE, etc. The mole ratios of BVT and OT in the synthesized copolymers were confirmed as 1 : 1.8 and 1 : 2.8 from $^1H$-NMR spectra. The UV-vis maximum absorption of copolymers appeared at the wavelength of 470 nm and 465 nm and the photoluminescence at ${\lambda}_{max}$ = 662 nm and 641 nm correspond to red-orange light. The band gaps of copolymers at 1.96 eV and 2.02 eV were found to be higher than those of poly(3-octylthiophene). The HOMO energy levels of the copolymers decreased overall in comparison with those of poly(3-octylthiophene), but the overall LUMO energy level increased.

A simple, accurate and specific NMR procedure is described for the determination of amplicilin and cloxacillin mixtures in injection dosage form and capsules. The solvent was dimethysulfoxde $d_{6}$ and maleic acid was the internal standard. By integrating the peak at 2.68 ppm and 4.57 ppm, cloxacillin and ampicillin could be determined respectively. The relative proton ratio of ampicillin trihydrate and cloxacillin were 1.038 and 0.950. The coefficents of variation of amplicillin trihydrate and cloxacillin in a few commerical preparation were 1.55 % (n =9), 2.69 % (n =15).

In this work, we applied the 1D $11^B$ nutation NMR method for the analysis of the local structural environments in powdered borosilicates $(SiO_2-B_2O_3)$. Spin dynamics during a rf irradiation for spin I=3/2 was analytically calculated with a density ma trix formalism. Spectral simulation programs were written in MATLAB on a PC. Two borosilicates prepared by the sol-gel process at different stabilization temperature were used for the 1D $11^B$ nutation NMR experiment. The $11^B$ NMR parameters, quadrupole coupling constants $(e^2qQ/h)$ and asymmetry parameters (η), for each borosilicate were extracted from the nonlinear least-squares fitting. The effects of heat treatments on the local structures of boron sites in borosilicates were discussed.

There have been few reports on the constituents and biological activity of stem bark of $Acer$ $tegmentosum$, and no phytochemical and biological studies have been reported for stem wood of $A.$ $tegmentosum$. Two flavan 3-ols (1 and 2), three phenolic acid/alcohols (3~5), and two coumarins (6 and 7) were isolated from the stem wood of $A.$ $tegmentosum$ by repeated column chromatography. The structure of isolated compounds were identified as (+)-catechin (1), (-)-epicatechin (2), $p$-hydroxybenzaldehyde (3), syringic alcohol (4), $p$-tyrosol (5), scopoletin (6), and cleomiscosin A (7) on the basis of spectroscopic evidences such as $^1H$-NMR, $^{13}C$-NMR, 2D-NMR and MS spectrum. $p$-Hydroxybenzaldehyde (3), syringic alcohol (4), scopoletin (6), and cleomiscosin A (7) have not been reported from this plant so far. (+)-Catechin (1) and (-)-epicatechin (2) showed the higher 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity than butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) used as a positive control.
