New nickel complexes containing novel tetradentate ligands, 4,5-substituted-1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamide)-benzene ligands but lacking alkyl or halide ligands in the coordination sphere have been prepared. They were activated with MMAO (modified methylaluminoxane) to be proven as efficient catalysts for the polymerization of norbornene. Both electron-donating and -withdrawing substituents on the benzene ring and polar solvents enhance the catalytic activity for olefin polymerization. Improvement in thermal stability of the complexes was observed. Some of these complexes were crystallographically determined to have square planar geometry. A plausible mechanism involving dissociation of ligands is proposed.

(1-Chloro-2,2-dicyanovinyl)benzene or 1,4-bis(1-chloro-2,2-dicyanovinyl)benzene was reacted with 2-amino-phenol to give the model compound, hydroxy enaminonitrile, which was found to undergo thermal cyclization reaction to form the corresponding benzoxazole. This intramolecular cyclization reaction is expected to occur through nucleophilic attack to electropositive enamine carbon by ortho-hydroxy group on the phenyl ring, which is accompanied by the release of neutral malononitrile through rearrangement. From each bifunctional monomer, o-hydroxy substituted polyenaminonitrile was prepared and characterized as a new precursor polymer for well-known aromatic polybenzoxazole. Also the unusual macrocyclic dimer formation from the 1,4-bis(1-chloro-2,2-dicyanovinyl)benzene and 2,2-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane polymerization reaction system was discussed. The thermal cyclization reactions and the properties of polymers were investigated using FT-IR and thermal analysis (DSC & TGA).

A series of heterocyclic chalcone derivatives bearing heterocycles such as thiophene or furan ring as an isostere of benzene ring were carefully prepared, and the influence of heterocycles on 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities was systematically investigated. Structure-activity relationships (SAR) analysis showed that the activities of thiophene ring-containing chalcones were higher than those of furan ring-containing chalcones, and the presence of methyl substituent of heterocyclic ring distinctly affected the activities compared with non-substituted heterocycles in an opposite manner, with the 4'-methyl group of thiophene ring increasing activity and the 3'-methyl group of the furan ring decreasing activity. The distinct isosteric effect of heterocycles (i.e., thiophene or furan ring) on radical scavenging activities of heterocyclic chalones was distinctly demonstrated in our work.

Nalita wood (Trema orientalis), one of the fastest growing woods in the world, is characterized anatomical, morphological and chemical properties at annual growth ring level in order to investigate as papermaking raw material. The proportion of fibers and vessel was increased with an increase of growth ring (from pith to bark). The fiber length of Nalita was increased with increasing growth ring, and an average fiber length was about 817 um. The average basic density of Nalita was about 0.38 g/cc. The total lignin & holocellulose in Nalita were increased and ash & alcohol-benzene extract decreased from pith to bark. These values were about 23.5 - 24.4 ％, 78.1 - 80.1 ％, 1.04 - 0.92 ％ and 2.1 - 1.8 ％, respectively. The xylan was the predominant sugar in the hemicellulose of Nalita.

Styrene oxide 계열의 라세믹 에폭사이드 기질에 대한 입체선택적 가수분해능이 우수한 Aspergillus nigerr계열의 생촉매를 선발하였고, A.niger LK 유래의 EHase의 기질 특이성을 분석하였다. A. niger LK의 EHase는 benzene ring에 oxirane ring이 직접 연결되어 있는 styrene oxide, p-nitrostyrene oxide 기질에 대해서는 (R)-이성질체, benzene ring과 oxirane ring사이에 ether 등의 연결 chain이 있는 기질에 대해서는 (S)-이 성질체에 대한 입체선택적 가수분해능이 우수하였다. A niger LK의 EHase 유전자를 RT-PCR 방법으로 클로닝하였고, sequencing을 통해 다른 미생물 유래의 EHase와의 sequence identity 분석 등을 통해 특성을 분석하였다. Yeast 유래의 EHase와는 32% 수준의 sequence identity를 보였으며, Agrobacterisum, Corynebacterium 등의 박테리아 유래 EHase와는 identity가 매우 낮은 특성을 보였다. E. coli 숙주에서 발현된 재조합 EHase의 활성은 라세믹 에폭사이드 기질에 대한 입체선택적 가수분해 반응을 통해 확인할 수 있었다. 클러닝된 EHase의 보다 효율적인 발현 연구가 필요하며, 이러한 재조합 EHase는 고부가가치 광학활성 에폭사이드 제조를 위한 생물전환공정 시스템의 생촉매로 응용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Rotaxanes have been prepared using benzene-linked bis-porphyrin or bis-zinc porphyrin as a string component and bis-viologen as a macrocyclic ring component. Absorption and fluorescence spectra of rotaxane formed by complexation of two components have been investigated.

Strong deep ultraviolet emitting aniline and $TiO_2$ composite has been synthesized via hydrolysis and condensation reactions of titaniumisopropoxide ($Ti(OPr)_4$), aniline, and acetic anhydride. Three different weight ratios of aniline and $Ti(OPr)_4$ including 3:1 ($TiO_2An-A$), 2:1 ($TiO_2An-B$), and 1:1 ($TiO_2An-C$) were synthesized and characterized their optical properties. The FTIR spectra of the $TiO_2An-A$, -B, and -C showed the absorption intensities of the benzene ring stretching and bending vibrations, and benzene ring -CH stretching, bending, and deformation vibrations increased with the increase of the amount of aniline. The UV-visible absorption spectra showed that the UV region absorption was slightly increased with the increase of the amount of aniline. The photoluminescence (PL) intensities were exponentially increased with the increase the excitation wavelength from 307 to 317 nm, steadily increased from 300 to 313 nm and slowly increased from 302 to 308 nm for $TiO_2An-A$, -B, and -C, respectively and decreased thereafter. Therefore, the PL intensity is strongly dependent on the weight ratio of $Ti(OPr)_4$ and aniline.

Hydrogen adsorption mechanism onto the porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been studied by density functional theory calculation. The selected functionals for the predict ion of interact ion energies between hydrogen and potential adsorption sites of MOF was utilized after the evaluation with the various functionals for interaction energy of $H_2C_6H_6$ model system the adsorption energy of hydrogen molecule into MOF was investigated with the consideration of the favorable adsorption sites and the orientations. We also calculated the second favorable adsorption sites by geometry optimization using every combination of two first absorbed hydrogen molecules. Based on the calculation of first and second adsorption sites and energies, the hydrogen adsorption into MOF follows a cooperative mechanism in which the initial metal sites initiate the propagation of the hydrogen adsorption on the whole frameworks. In addition, it was found that the interaction strength between the simple benzene ring with hydrogen is significantly reinforced when the benzene ring has been incorporated into the framework of MOFs.

Effects of twenty-one different flavonoids and their related compounds on the phagocytosis of colloidal carbon by macrophages in liver and spleen humoral immune responses against bacterial $\alpha$-amylase and cellular immune responses against oxazolone and dinitrofluorobenzene were studied in vivo and in vitro. It was shown that most of the flavonoids accelerated significantly the phagocytosis, and they suppressed significantly not only humoral and cellular immune responses but also the development of immunological memory after the antigenic stimulation. Especially, malvin was the most active in phagocysis, and disodium cromoglycate and morin were the most active in humoral and cellular immunosuppression, respectively. Daidzuin had the most potent inhibitory activity in the development of memory cells. The structure-activity relationships of the flavonoids in immunosuppression became apparant from these results: 1. The presence of $C_{2-3}$ double bond and $C_4$ Ketone group in C-ring was important for their immunosuppressive activity. 2. Flavonoids with benzene ring at 2 or 3 position in C-ring showed the almost same activities. 3. The opening of C-ring did not affect their immunosuppressive activity. 4. The glycosylated flavonoids at 3 position in C-ring were less less potent than their aglycones. 5. Di-or tri-hydroxylated flavonoids in B-ring were more potent than mono-hydroxylated. 6. Chromanochromanone also had the immunosuppressive activity.

HMCM-41 중간세공 물질(mesoporous material) 촉매를 사용하여 aryl methallyl ether로부터 의약품과 농약의 주요 중간체인 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran 유도체를 합성하였다. 산점 농도가 촉매 활성에 미치는 영향을 비교하기 위하여 Si/Al 몰비가 40과 50으로 다른 촉매를 제조하였으며, aryl methallyl ether에 다양한 치환기를 도입하여 벤젠 고리의 전자 밀도가 전환율과 수율에 미치는 효과를 조사하였다. 산점이 많아질수록 전환율은 높아졌으나, 2,3-dihydorbenzofuran 유도체의 수율과 직접 연관짓기는 어려웠다. 전자공여기의 치환으로 벤젠 고리의 전자 밀도가 높아지면 claisen 자리 옮김 반응이 빨라져서 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran 유도체가 많이 생성되었다. 반면, 전자흡인기가 치환되어 벤젠 고리의 전자 밀도가 낮아지면 산 촉매에 의해 aryl methallyl ether 분해 반응이 촉진되어 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran 유도체 대신 phenol 유도체가 생성되었다.
