New dynemicin A mimics with methyl group 2a and 2b were synthesized, and acid-induced hydrolyzed to see an electronic effect of substituent for epoxide opening. The model 2a with methyl group at C3 position was more rapidly transformed to diol 16a than 2b with methyl group at C2. This result suggests that any substituent at C3 position plays more important role than any substituent at C2 position in the dynemicin A mimic activation.

The 18 ureidoceramide derivatives had been investigated for their cytotoxic activity against HT-29 colon cancer, Caki-2 renal cancer, A549 lung cancer, PC-3 prostate cancer, HL -60 leukemia cell using MTT assay. Cytotoxic activity was strongly influenced by the substituted alkyl chain length and the optimal alkyl chain length for cytotoxicity was C9-C12. (omitted)

Dimethyl-2,6-naphthalenedicarboxylate(2,6-NDC)와 ethylene glycol(EG)로부터 유도되는 폴리에틸렌 나프탈레이트(PEN)는 폴리에틸렌 테레프탈레이트(PET)보다 열적 및 기계적 특성이 우수한 열가소성 고분자이며[1-2], 폴리에틸렌 글리콜(PEG)은 diol기를 함유한 친수성 고분자로서 의약품 및 기타 가공제로 널리 쓰이는 물질이다. 이미 PET는 이러한 PEC를 PET 합성과정에서 공단량체로 사용해 공중합시킴으로서 친수성을 갖는 PET로 개질하고자 하는 연구[3-4]가 다수 보고되어 왔으나, PEN의 경유는 아직 이에 관한 연구보고가 없는 실정이다.

Seven ergosterol derivatives (1-7) were isolated from silkworm larvae infected with Paecilomyces sp. J300. On the basis of spectroscopic means, their structures have been elucidated as 3$\beta$,5$\alpha$-dihydroxy-ergosta-7,22-diene (1), 5$\alpha$,6$\alpha$-epoxy-(22E,24R)-ergosta-8(14), 22-diene-3$\beta$,7$\alpha$-diol (2), 5$\alpha$,6$\alpha$-epoxy-(22E,24R)-ergosta-8, 22-diene-3$\beta$,7$\alpha$-diol (3), ergosta-4, 6, 8(14), 22-tetraene-3-one (4), ergosterol (5), ergosterol endoperoxide (6), 3$\beta$,5$\alpha$-dihydroxy-6$\beta$-methoxyergosta-7,22-diene (7). Compounds 3~7 showed moderate cytotoxicity against five tumor cells.

The main objective of this study was to modulate pH-sensitive polymers (poly($\beta-amino esters$)) by controlling their molecular weight during their synthesis. These pH-sensitive and biodegradable polymers were synthesized by Michael-type step polymerization. 1,4-Butane diol diacrylate was used as the unsaturated carbonyl compound and piperazine as the nucleophilic compound. Various molecular weight polymers were obtained by varying the mol ratio of piperazine/1,4-butane diol diacrylate. The synthesized polymers were characterized by $^{1}H-NMR$ and their molecular weights were measured by gel permeation chromatography(GPC). The dependence of the molecular weight on the mol ratio was evaluated by the titration method. Also, the pH dependent turbidity of the polymers was determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometry. This pH dependent property of the polymers could be very useful for preparing drug carriers that are sensitive to pH.

Urethane-acrylate propelymers for secondary coating of optical fiber and high - performance material were prepared from the 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate(MDI), poly(tetramethylene oxide)glycol(PTMG, Mw 650 or 1000), 1,6-hexanediol(HD), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate(HEA), and dibutyltin dilaurate as a catalyst. UV-Curable polyurethane acrylates were formulated from the urethane-acrylate prepolymers, three types of reactive diluents(DTs) having mono-, di-, and trifunctional-phenoxyethyl acrylate(PEA), hexanediol diacrylate(HDDA), and trimethylolpropane triacrylate(TMPTA), and 1-hydtoxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone(Irgacure 184) as a photoinitiator. The UV-cured films of polyurethane acrylates were obtained by curing using a medium-pressure mercury lamp(U W/cm, $\lambda_{max}=365\;nm)$. In this work, the effects of molecular weights of polyol and diol with low molecular weight into polymer chain on mechanical and dynamic mechanical properties of UV-cured polyurethane acrylates were studied. The structure and properties of the films obtained from the UV photopolymerization of urethane-acrylate prepolymer were investigated by FT-IR spectroscopy, dynamic mechanical measurement, tensile testing, and X-ray diffractometry.

Poly(L-lactic acid-co-succinic acid-co-l,4-butane diol) (PLASB) was synthesized by direct condensation copolymerization of L-lactic acid (LA), succinic acid (SA), and 1,4-butanediol (BD) in the bulk using titanium(IV) butoxide as a catalyst. The weight-average molecular weight ofPLASB was $2.1{\times}10^{5}$ when the contents of SA and BD were each 0.5 mol/100 mol of LA. Electrospinning was used to fabricate porous membranes from this newly synthesized bioabsorbable PLASB dissolved in mixed solvents of methylene chloride and dimethylformamide. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images indicated that the fiber diameters and nanostructured morphologies of the electrospun membranes depended on the processing parameters, such as the solvent ratioand the polymer concentration. By adjusting both the solvent mixture ratio and the polymer concentration, we could fabricate uniform nanofiber non-woven membranes. Cell proliferation on the electrospun porous PLASB membranes was evaluated using mouse fibroblast cells; we compare these results with those of the cell responses on bulk PLASB films.

The effects of ginseng saponin on the activity, phosphorylation, [$^{3}$H] ouabain binding and light scattering (disruption) of purified $Na^{+}$ ,$K^{+}$ -ATPase isolated from the outer medulla of sheep kidney were compared to those of gypsophila saponin, sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS), and Triton X-100 on the same parameters. $Na^{+}$ , $K^{+}$ -ATPase activity, phosphorylation, and [$^{3}H$] ouabain binding were inhibited by ginseng saponin (triol>total>diol), SDS, or Triton X-100, but increased by gypsophila saponin. Low doses of ginseng saponin (3.mu.g saponin/.mu.g protein) decreased phosphorylation sites and ouabain binding site concentration (Bmax) without any change of turnover number and affinity for ouabain binding which were decreased by high dose of ginseng saponin (over 10.mu.g saponin/.mu.g protein), SDS or Triton X-100. On the other hand, gypsophila saponin increased the affinity without any change of Bmax for ouabain binding. Inhibition of $Na^{+}$ ,$K^{+}$ -ATPase activity by ginseng saponin and SDS or Triton X-100 appeared before and after decrease in light scattering, respectively. These data suggest that ginseng saponins (total, diol, triol saponin) inhibit $Na^{+}$ , $K^{+}$ -ATPase activity by specific direct and general detergent action at low and high concentrations, respectively, and this inhibitory action of ginseng sapornin to $Na^{+}$ , $K^{+}$ -ATPase is not general action of all saponins.

In order to improve the thermal stability of polyurethane, we synthesized poly(adipate urethane) (PAU) and three PAU composites, PAU/30B (2.7 wt% 30B), PAU/MP (2.2 wt% MP), PAU/30B/MP (2.2 wt% 30B and 2.2 wt% MP), from poly(oxydiethylene adipate)-diol (PAD), 4,4'-methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI), Cloisite 30B (30B), and melamine phosphate (MP). 30B and MP were introduced into the reactant mixture at the initial stage of the esterification between adipic acid and diethylene glycol, so 30B and MP were evenly dispersed in the PAU composites for long period. At temperatures lower than $250^{\circ}C$, the PAU composites were degraded faster than pristine PAU, mainly due to the decomposition of 30B and MP. At higher temperatures, the 30B and MP enhanced the thermal stability of the PAU composites. Compared with the pristine PAU, the thermal decomposition rates of the PAU composites decreased by 13~17%. In air, the residual weights of PAU/30B, PAU/MP, and PAU/30B/MP were 2.4, 2.3, and 7.3 wt% at $700^{\circ}C$, respectively.

In connection with the asymmetric synthesis of chiral l.2-diol. we report here the total synthesis of (＋)-frontalin using diastereoselective alkylation featuring tridentate chelation-controlled asymmetric alkylation of a-hydroxyketone, in which the chiral auxiliary is attached to the hydroxyl group as ether linkage. The starting D-glyceraldehyde acetonide was converted (S)- ［(4R)-2.2-dimethyH,3-dioxolan-4-yl］ (4-methoxyphenyl) methanol. (omitted)
