The entire gene cluster involved in the biosynthesis of angucyclines Sch 47554 and Sch 47555 was cloned, sequenced, and characterized. Analysis of the nucleotide sequence of genomic DNA spanning 77.5-kb revealed a total of 55 open reading frames, and the deduced products exhibited strong sequence similarities to type II polyketide synthases, deoxysugar biosynthetic enzymes, and a variety of accessory enzymes. The involvement of this gene cluster in the pathway of Sch 47554 and Sch 47555 was confirmed by genetic inactivation of the aromatase, including a portion of the ketoreductase, which was disrupted by inserting the thiostrepton gene.

Environmental elements such as B, Br, and Sr in groundwater from Bukahn-myeon, Yeongcheon, Gyeongbuk Province, were investigated in order to know their origin with emphasis on hydrochemistry. pH ranges from 7.37 to 8.39. B content is 0.41${\sim}$4.62 mg/L with an average 1.74 mg/L and Br content is 0${\sim}$3.24 mg/L with an average 2.22 mg/L, and Sr content is 0.93${\sim}$8.64 mg/L with an average 2.76 mg/L. The water types plotted by the Piper diagram are different but mostly $Ca-HCO_3$. Some constituents contributing to EC are Na, $SO_4$, Cl with high determinative coefficients($R^2$) of 0.85, 0.70, 0.90, respectively. The coefficients($R^2$) of Cl to Na, K, $SO_4$ are 0.54, 0.68, 0.53, respectively. It should be noted that there are high cocfficients($R^2$) of B-Sr and $Sr-SO_4$ with 0.65, 0.64, respectively. The Cl/Br ratios are 5.21${\sim}$30.70 due to significant depletion of Cl. The $SO_4/Cl$ ratios are 1.32${\sim}$27.24 with an average of 5.92, ascribed to abundant introduction of $SO_4$ or significant depletion of Cl. Chemical speciation calculated shows that B exists mostly as $H_3BO_3$ with less $H_2BO^-_3$ and Br exists as only $Br^-$. Sr exists mostly as $Sr^2$ with less $SO_4$. Saturation index represents that goundwater is supersaturated with respect to barite, kaolinite, illite, K-mica, and smectite while it is slightly undersaturated with respect to silica, gypsum, anhydrite, talc, chrysotile, feldspar, kaolinite, illite, K-mica, and smectite. The saturation index of celestine is -2.23${\sim}$-0.13 indicating more Sr can be incorporated into groundwater. Groundwater is still much undersaturated to halite. It is likely that the origin of S and Sr was related to the Yucheon volcanic rocks. Br might be originated from the local geological features with introduction of anthropogenic matters.

The rates and activation parameters for the halide $(Cl^{-}, Br^{-}, I^{-})$TeX> exchange reactions of substituted benzenesulfonyl-chloride, $XC_6H_4SO_2Cl$(X:p-MeO, H, p-Cl, p-Br, p-NO$_2l$) in dry acetone at two temperatures have been determined. It was found that the ion-pair of metal halide,$M^{+}X^{-}$, have negligible reactivity compared to free halide ions. It was also found that the nucleophilic order is $Cl^{-}>Br^{-}>I^{-}$for electron-donating substituent, and $Cl^{-}>I^{-}>Br^{-}$ for electron-withdrawing substituents. These results and convex nature of the Hammett plot are interpreted in the light of simple $S_N2$mechanism with the bond breaking becoming important for compounds with the electron withdra-wing substituents.

Pool boiling heat transfer coefficients of a LiBr solution were obtained for seven low fin tubes having different fin pitch and fin height. The test range covered saturation pressure from 7.38kPa to 101.3kPa, heat flux from $20kW/m^2$ to $40 kW/m^2$ and LiBr concentration from 0% to 50%. The optimum fin geometry for the present experimental range turned out to be 26 fpi with 0.18 mm fin height.The advantage of added heat transfer area and the disadvantage of slower bubble growth and departure appear to have yielded an optimum fin pitch. The heat transfer coefficient decreased as saturation pressure decreased and Libr concentration increased. The reason may be attributed to the low saturation pressure, which increased the bubble departure diameter and decreased the bubble departure frequency. As the LiBr concenreation increased, the saturation temperature increased and the mass diffusion rate decreased, which resulted in a reduced heat transfer coefficient. The heat transfer coefficients of the low fin tube were greater than those of the smooth tube. Correlations were developed based on the present data.

The complexation behavior of the $\alpha$-ketostabilized phosphorus ylides $Ph_3P$=CHC(O) $C_6H_4-X$ (X=Br, Ph) towards the transition metal ions mercury (II) and Silver (I) was investigated. The mercury(II) complex {$HgX_2$ [Y]} 2 ($Y_1$=4-bromo benzoyl methylene triphenyl phosphorane; X=Cl(1), Br(2), I(3), $Y_2$=4-phenyl benzoyl methylene triphenyl phosphorane; X=Cl(4), Br(5), I(6)) have been prepared from the reaction of $Y_1$ and $Y_2$ with $HgX_2$ (X=Cl, Br, I) respectively. Silver complexes [$Ag(Y_2)_2]$ X(X=$BF_4$(7), OTf(8)) of the $\alpha$-keto-stabilized phosphorus ylides ($Y_2$) were obtained by reacting this ylide with AgX (X=$BF_4$, OTf) in $Me_2CO$. The crystal structure of complexes (1) and (4) was discussed. These reactions led to binuclear complexes C-coordination of ylide and trans-like structure of complexes $[Y_1HgCl_2]_2$. $CHCl_3$ (1) and $[Y_2HgCl_2]_2$ (4) is demonstrated by single crystal X-ray analyses. Not only all of complexes have been studied by IR, $^1H$ and $^{31}P$ NMR spectroscopy, but also complexes 1-3 have been characterized by $^{13}$CNMR.

Emission of methyl bromide (MeBr) from soil was implicated in stratospheric ozone depletion. To determine multi analysis of alternatives fumigants for MeBr, this paper describes the methods of analysis in water and soil. The MeBr, methyl iodide (Mel), propargyl bromide (PBr), cis 1,3-dichloropropene (cis 1,3-D), trans 1,3-dichloropropene (trans 1,3-D) and chloropicrin(CP) are separated on the base line on GC-ECD at three column of AT+DB+DB (90m) with temperature programing of $35^{\circ}C{\rightarrow}110^{\circ}C$ on GC-ECD. The relative retention time for MeBr, Mel, PBr, cis 1,3-D, trans 1,3-D and CP is 1.0, 1.4, 2.3, 3.2, 3.6 and 3.7, respertively. The detection limit for MeBr, Mel, PBr, cis 1,3-D, trans 1,3-D and CP is 469 pg, 5 pg, 21 pg, 79 pg, 101 PE and 5pg, respectively. Recovery of MeBr Mel, PBr, cis 1,3-D, trans 1,3-D and CP in water added 150 ppm fumigants were 81%, 96%, 95%, 97%, 98% and 99%, respectively. Recovery of MeBr, MeI, PBr, cis 1, 3-D, trans 1,3-D and CP in soil added 150ppm fumigants were 56%, 84%), 85%, 81%, 87% and 88%, respectively.

C3HC4-type RING zinc finger proteins essential in the regulation of plant processes, including responses to abiotic stresses. We previously isolated and examined the C3HC4-type RING zinc finger protein (BrRZFP1) from Brassica rapa under abiotic stresses. To elucidate the role of the BrRZFP1 transcription factor in gene regulation, we transformed tobacco plants with the BrRZFP1 gene. Plants were regenerated from 82 independently transformed callus lines of tobacco and analysed for transgene expression. Transgene integration and expression was confirmed by Southern and RT-PCR analyses, respectively. T2 plants displayed more tolerance to the bacterial pathogens Pectobacterium carotovorum and Ralstonia solanacearum, and the tolerance levels were correlated with BrRZFP1 expression levels. These results suggest that the transcription factor BrRZFP1 is an important determinant of stress response in plants and its overexpression in plants could increase biotic stress resistance.

The reaction of $(CO_5$)M=C(OMe)Tol (M=Cr, Mo, W and $Tol=p-C_6H_4Me)$ and $BBr_3$ followed by treatment with tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) yields a mixture of two diastereomers, trans, $cis-Br(CO)_2(tmeda)M{\equiv}$CTol [M=Cr(1a), Mo(2a), W(3a)] and cis, $trans-Br(CO)_2(tmeda)M{\equiv}$CTol [M=Cr(1b), Mo(2b), W(3b)], respectively. These compounds have been isolated as crystalline solids and characterized by spectroscopic (infrared, mass, $^1H$ and $^{13}C-NMR)$ data. The trans, cis-Br(CO)2(tmeda)Cr${\equiv}$CTol (1a), has been examine via a single crystal X-ray diffraction study : $BrCrO_2N_2C_{16}H_{23}$, Mr=407.27, triclinic, $P{\bar{1}},\;a=12.792(2),\;b=13.400(5),\;c= 11.645(4)\;{\AA},\;{\alpha}=101.26(2)^{\circ},\;{\beta}=103.04(2)^{\circ},\;{\gamma}=91.88(2)^{\circ},\;{\nu}=1907(1){\AA}^3,\;Z=2,\;{\rho}(calcd)=1.418\;gcm^{-3},\;{\lambda}(MoK{\alpha})=0.71069\;{\AA},\;{\mu}=26.25 cm^{-1},\;F(000)=831.97,\;T=295K,\;R=0.0977$ for 1332 significant reflections $[F_0>5{\sigma}(F_0)]$. There are two essentially equivalent molecules in the crystallographic asymmetric unit. Each molecule is octahedral with the bromide ligand trans to the alkylidyne carbon, the two cis-carbonyl ligands, and the bidentate TMEDA ligand.

Kinetic studies for the methanolysis of tert-butyl halides (t-BuCl, t-BuBr, t-BuI) were carried out in MeOH-1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane mixtures. The solvatochromic comparison method was used with six indicators to analyze solvent effects on the ionizations of tert-butyl halides. It was shown that the cooperative effect of solvent polarity-polarizability was the most important factor influenced on the methanolysis rates of tert-butyl halides, but the electrophilic assistance for halide leaving group and the nucleophilic assistance for tert-butylium ion were considerably influential, too. And it was found that the electrophilic assistance caused by hydrogen bonding and the nucleophilic assistance for carbon center were stronger for more basic leaving group ($I^-) and more polarizable leaving group(t-BuCl
