Ketoconazole is an imidazole antifungal agent which inhibits the biosynthesis of fungal cellmembrane ergosterol and has immunosuppressive properties in vitro. Biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate (PMC) has been utilized for antioxidative action and for liver-protective purposes. Studies were undertaken to investigate effects of biphenyl dimethyl dicarboxylate (PMC) on the immunosuppression of ketoconazole in ICR mice. In the combination of PMC and ketoconazole, as compared with the treatment of ketoconazole alone, there were significant increases in activities of natural killer (NK) cells and phagocytes along with circulation leukocytes. The elevation of serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (S-GPT) and total protein levels caused by ketoconazole were reduced by the combination of PMC and ketoconazole. In addition, lower serum albumin and albumin/globulin (A/G) ratio were also increased to normal level.

The effects of β-CD, Me-β-CD, and biphenyl capped β-CD on 1H NMR spectra of mandelic acid 1, α-methylbenzylamine 2 and 2-phenylpropionic acid 3 were investigated. Enantiomeric recognition was observed for mandelic acid 1 by all the hosts used, for α-methylbenzylamine 2 by β-CD and Me-β-CD, and for 2-phenylpropionic acid 3 by Me-β-CD. In the presence of biphenyl-capped β-CD, ο-, m-, and p-protons of the phenyl groups of the guests are discriminated due to ring current of the capped biphenyl group. The splitting pattern of the phenyl protons indicates that the phenyl group of the guests is inserted into the β-CD cavity from the secondary hydroxyl side and positioned in close proximity to the capped biphenyl ring. The magnitude of the upfield shifts of H3 and H5 protons of β-CD upon binding of guests 1-3 is similar to that caused by ephedrine or pseudoephedrine, suggesting that the substitution at benzylic carbon atom has little effect on the depth of the insertion of the phenyl group into the β-CD cavity and stability of the inclusion complexes.

본 실험은 다섯 종류의 새로운 형태의 액정성 폴리우레탄을 4,4'-Bis(3-hydroxypropoxy)biphenyl (BP3)와 2,6-tolylene diisocyanate(2,6-TDI), 2,5-tolylene diisocyanate(2,5-TDI), 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate(2,4-TDI), 1,4-phenylene diisocyanate(1,4-PDI) 및 hexamethylene diisocyanate(HDI)의 중부가 반응에 의해 합성하였다. 단량체 BP3은 스멕틱상을 형성하였으며 HDI/BP3을 제외한 나머지 폴리우레탄에서는 모두 단방성 액정성을 나타내었다. 그러나 메틸 치환기를 가지고 있지 않는 1,4-PDI/BP3에서는 DSC 및 편광현미경에서도 액정상을 전혀 관찰할 수 없었다. 합성된 화합물의 구조는 FT-IR 및 $^1H$-NMR에 의해 확인하였으며, 그들의 열적 상전이온도 및 안정성들은 DSC, 편광현미경 및 x-선 회절에 의해 조사하였다.

Polychlorinated biphenyl are toxic pollutants and their degradation is quite slow in the environment. Recently, interest if bioremediation using PCB-degrading bacteria has increaset,. In a previous report, plant terpenes (p-cymene, (S)-(-)-limonene, ${\alpha}-pynene$, and ${\alpha}-terpinene$) have been found to be utilized by a PCB degrader and to induce the biphenyl dioxygenase gene in pure culture. In this study, Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes KF707, a PCB-degrading Gram-negative soil bacterium, was used to determine whether the terpene stimulation of PCB degrader occurred in the natural environment. First, P. pseudoalcaligenes KF707 was genetically tagged using a transposon with gfp (green fluorescent protein) as a reporter gone. The population dynamics of P. pseudoalcaligenes KF707 harboring gfp gene in a PCB-contaminated environment was examined with or without terpenoids added to the microcosm. About 10-100-fold increase was found in the population of PCB degraders when terpene was added, compared with control (non-terpenes samples and biphenyl added samples). It was proposed that the gfp-monitoring system is very useful and terpenes enhance the survivability of PCB degraders in PCB-contaminated environments.

Cyclopentadiene compounds, 2-[CR'R(OMe)]-1,3-Me$_2C_5H_3$ (R, R' = 2,2'-biphenyl, 2) and 2-[CR'R(OSiMe$_3$)]-1,3-Me$_2C_5H_3$ (R, R' = 2,2'-biphenyl, 3; R = ph, R' = ph, 4; R = 2-naphthyl, R' = H, 5) are readily synthesized from 2-bromo-3-methoxy-1,3-dimethylcyclopentene (1). Reaction of the cyclopentadienes with Ti(NMe$_2$)$_4$ in toluene results in clean formation of the cyclopentadienyl tris(dimethylamido)titanium complexes, which are transformed to the trichloride complexes, 2-[CR'R(OMe)]-1,3-Me$_2C_5H_2$}TiCl$_3$ (R, R' = 2,2'-biphenyl, 6) and {2-[CR'R(OSiMe$_3$)]-1,3-Me$_2C_5H_2$}TiCl$_3$ (R, R' = 2,2'-biphenyl, 7; R = ph, R' = ph, 8; R = 2-naphthyl, R' = H, 9). Attempts to form C1-bridged Cp/oxido complexes by elimination of MeCl or Me$_3$SiCl were not successful. X-ray structures of 6, 7 and an intermediate complex {2-[Ph$_2$C(OSiMe$_3$)]-1,3-Me$_2C_5H_2$}TiCl$_2$(NMe$_2$) (10) were determined.

금속콜로이드에 흡착된 4-biphenyl acetonitrile(BPAN)을 $\alpha$-cyclodextrin($\alpha$-CD)으로 포접시킴으로 써 흡착배향을 변화시킬 수 있는지 여부를 알아보기 위하여 형광분광법을 이용하여 연구를 수행하였다. Au와 Ag 콜로이드 표면에 BPAN이 직접 흡착되는지 확인하기 위하여 온도증가에 따른 형광의 소광을 관찰하였다. 흡착이 이루어진 BPAN은 금속콜로이드의 종류에 상관없이 $\alpha$-CD와 포접화합물을 형성함을 발견하였으며 Benesi-Hildebrand 도시로부터 Au와 Ag에 흡착된 BPAN과 $\alpha$-CD의 포접화합물에 대한 형성 상수가 각각 32 $M^{-1}$과 13 $M^{-1}$인 것을 알아냈다. Au와 Ag 두 금속콜로이드에 흡착된 분자의 유사한 거동으로부터 $\alpha$-CD를 이용하여 분자의 흡착배향을 변화시킬 수 있음을 알게 되었다.

시중 유통되고 있는 50종의 목제 주방기구와 위생용품을 각각 benzene과 n-heptane에 용출시켜 GC-MSD를 이용하여 분석한 결과, naphthalene과 diethyl phthalate는 모든 조건에서 검출되지 않았으나, biphenyl의 경우 전 제품에서 미량이 검출되었다. Biphenyl은 자작나무 수입 원목과 국산 원목에서도 각각 0.25 ppm, 0.34 ppm 함유되어 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 biphenyl의 검출량은 목제를 가공하는 과정 중에 감소하며, 그 검출량은 과일의 잔류 허용치 (110 ppm)에 비해 극히 미량인 것으로 판단된다. 따라서 biphenyl의 유입경로는 제품의 제조 및 생산과정에서 첨가되었다기 보다는 제제 자체에 잔존한다고 추정되며, 이러한 biphenyl의 잔존량은 인체에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 농도는 아닌 것으로 판단된다.
