The $^{13}C-NMR$ shifts of a series of para-substituted $8-aryl-tricyclo[3.2.1.0^{2,7}]oct-8-yl$ and $9-aryl-tricyclo[3.3.1.0^{2,8}]-non-9-yl$ cations were measured in $FSO_3H/SO_2ClF\ at\-90^{\circ}$ in order to examine whether the ${\rho}^{C^+}$ values can be used as a measure of the geometric influence on the charge delocalization resulting from ${\rho}$ conjugation in rigid tricyclopropylcarbinyl cations. Plot of the ${\Delta}{\delta}^{C+} shifts against the ${\sigma}^{C+}$ constants revealed excellent linear correlation. The 8-aryl tricyclooctyl systems yielded a ${\rho}^{C+}$ value of -5.00 with r = 0.9962. Previous investigation of the 9-aryl-tricyclononyl systems gave a correlation coefficient of r = 0.9948 with a slope of ${\rho}^{C+}$ = -4.95. A fair parallelism exists between the results of $^{19}F-NMR $ studies and the change of ${\rho}^{C+}$ value in these cations. Consequently, it is established that the ${\rho}^{C+}$ value can be used to explain the mechanism of charge stabilization of the rigid cyclopropylcarbinyl cation such as tricyclo $[3.2.1.0^{2,7}]oct-8-yl$ cation.

The effects of divalent cations, $Hg^{2+}, Cu^{2+}, Pb^{2+}, Cd^{2+}$, and $Mn^{2+}$ on the total ATPase activity of the fragmented sarcoplasmic reticulum isolated from rabbit skeletal muscle were investigated. The inhibitory effects of the cations on the enzyme activity increased as the concentrations of the ions increased with the order of efficiency of $Hg^{2+}$ > $Cu^{2+}$ > $Pb^{2+}$ > $Cd^{2+}$ > $Mn^{2+}$ in the concentration range between 10 and 500$\mu$M. The 50% inhibition for each ion was almost identical with the inhibition constant (Ki) value for each ion. The Ki's were 10, 30 130, and 350$\mu$M for $Hg^{2+}, Cu^{2+}, Pb^{2+}, and Cd^{2+}$, respectively. $Mn^{2+}$ seemed to be an activator at lower concentrations and an inhibitor at higher concentrations. The presence of the cations did not change the Km values, suggesting that the ions act as a reversible noncompetitive inhibitor on the FSR ATPase. The energy of activation of the enzyme was aproximately 19 Kcal/mole. The presence of the ions decreased the value slightly. A possible mechanism for the reversible noncompetitive inhibitory effect of the cations was discussed.

The CNDO/2 method has been used to calculate the electronic structure of the zeolites and silicas, and to investigate the interaction of CO molecules with the OH groups or the exchanged cation in the zeolites. The interaction energies of CO molecules with OH groups in silica were ca. 12kcal/mol, the bond distance, R(O-H${\cdots}$C) was 2.6${\AA}$. The strength of bond between CO molecules and various types of cations in the zeolites was in the following order: $H^+ < Na^+ < Li^+$, i.e., this increased with increasing electrostatic field of cations. The bond orders of CO molecules interacting with the OH groups or the cations increased but for the OH-OC type interaction. The theoretical decationization energies of exchanged cations in the zeolites decreased in the order: $H^+ > Li^+ > Na^+$. And these energies depended on the amount of charge density transfered from the skeleton to the cations in order to compensate its negative charge.

The transport rates of transition metal cations were increased in order of Ni(II)$(NtnOenH_4)$and 1,12,15-triaza-3,4;9,10-dibenzo-5,8-dioxacyclo-heptadecane$(NdienOenH_4)$as carriers. The transport rates of transition metal cations was found to be of first order to the salt concentrations. It was also found that the dissociation process in the transport process is rate determining step. From the measurements of the transport rates at various temperatures, the partition free energies of hydration$({\Delta}G_p)$for the transition metal cations were calculated. The results showed that the order of transport rates of transition metal cations was found to be proportional to the magnitudes of negative value of the partition free energies of hydration$({\Delta}G_p)$.

The development of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) agents has been motivated because coronary artery disease has been one of the leading causes of death worldwide since the 1960s. Several positron emission tomography (PET) MPI agents were developed, and ¹⁸F-labeled phosphonium cations were reported actively among them. In this study, we synthesized novel ¹⁸F-labeled phosphonium cations, (5-[¹⁸F]fluoropentyl)diphenyl(pyridin-2-yl)phosphonium and (2-(2-[¹⁸F]fluoroethoxy)ethyl)diphenyl(pyridin-2-yl)phosphonium, and evaluated potential as MPI agents. Two labeled compounds were synthesized via nucleophilic substitution reactions of ¹⁸F-fluoride with the appropriate tosylate precursor in the presence of Kryptofix 2.2.2 and K₂CO₃. MicroPET studies were performed in normal rats to evaluate in vivo distribution of radiolabeled phosphonium cations for 60 min. The radiolabeled compounds were synthesized with 5%-10% yield. The radiochemical purity of labeled compounds was > 98% by analytical HPLC, and the specific activity was > 11.8 GBq/µmol. The result of microPET studies of these labeled compounds in rats showed intense uptake in the myocardium at 30 and 60 min. The results suggest that these ¹⁸F-labeled novel phosphonium cations would have potential as promising candidates for myocardial perfusion imaging.

This pot experiment was conducted to find out the optimal fertilization ratio of the cations(K: Ca: Mg) in various soil conditions. Soil samples were collected from uncultivated mountains and hills where development for grass lands is under consideration. The optimum ratios were computed by the Homes systematic variation technique. The results were summarized as follows : 1. The optimum fertilization ratios of the cations (K : Ca : Mg) for the high yields of grass-clover mixed sward at various areas were obtained (Table 4) 2. The relatively high optimum fertilization ratios of K in Daegu and Taegwalryong, Ca in Unbong, and Mg in Cheju district gave the high yields of clover in mixed sward. They were positively related to the low contents of the above cations in the soils or the relatively low content ratio comparing with other cations. 3. The yields of clover in mixed sward were seriously affected by the changes in both the fertilization ratio and total concentration of cations comparing to those of the grass yields. As a consequence, total yields, quality, and botanical composition of the mixed sward were also affected. 4. The antagonis among the cations K, Ca, and Mg was known from the point of mineral contents of grass and clover. 5. The equivalent ratio K/(Ca+Mg) or grass was greatly increased by the range of 2.4 and 3.3 in the K-group treatment, which was higher than the critical level 2.2 of grass tetany, otherwise that. of clover by the range of 0.9 and 1.2. Therfore, it may be concluded that if the botanical composition of grass/legume sward is optimum, the incidence of grass tetany can be eliminated.

The structures of the four lowest alanine conformers, along with their radical cations and the effect of ionization on the intramolecular proton transfer process, are studied using the density functional theory and MP2 method. The energy order of the radical cations of alanine differs from that of the corresponding neutral conformers due to changes in the basicity of the $NH_2$ group upon ionization. Ionization favors the intramolecular proton transfer process, leading to a proton-transferred radical-cation structure, [$NH_3{^+}-CHCH_3-COO{\bullet}$], which contrasts with the fact that a proton-transferred zwitterionic conformer is not stable for a neutral alanine in the gas phase. The energy barrier during the proton transfer process is calculated to be about 6 kcal/mol.

Competitive solvent extraction of alkaline earth metal cations from water into organic solvent containing the carboxylic acid crown ether and analogous crown ether phosphonic acid monoethyl esters were investigated. sym-(n-Decyldibenzo)-16-crown-5xyacetic acid $\underline{1}$ and monoethyl sym-(n-decyldibenzo)-16-crown-5-oxymethylphosphonic acid $\underline{3}$ are structurally identical except for the ionizable groups. Both of them provide similar extraction behavior in terms of efficiency and selectivity, but monoethyl sym-(n-decyldibenzo)-16-crown-5-oxymethylphosphonic acid $\underline{3}$ showed higher alkaline earth metals loadings at acidic or neutral media. Monoethylsym-(n-octyldibenzo)-16-rown-5-oxymethylphosphonic acid $\underline{2}$ showed better selectivity and alkaline earth metals loading than did the analogous sym-(n-octyldibenzo)-16-crown-5-oxymethyldiphosphonic acid $\underline{6}$.

Effect of different cations to the formation of iron oxyhydroxide was studied using $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and BET. Redox Potential and pH were measured for the determination of the internal reaction rate, as well. The phases of iron oxyhydroxide could not be the same with each other, due to the presence of different cations in solution. Although the oxyhydroxide compound was composed of the same phases, the fraction of each phase was different from each other. The internal reaction rate was varied by the substitution of cation. It could be a cause of the different phase and particle size of oxyhydroxide compound.

This study was carried out to investigate water quality of streamflow in a forest land. We measured discharges and the concentration of streamflow for T-N, T-P, COD, cations(Na$\^$+/, K$\^$+/, Ca$\^$2+/, Mg$\^$2+/), and anions(CI$\^$－/, SO$\_$4/$\^$2-/). The average concentration of pollutants were extremely low, such as 0.4mg/$\ell$ for T-N, 0.02 mg/$\ell$ for T-P and 2.68mg/$\ell$for COD. The concentration of cations have a tendency to decrease with increasing discharge, while the concentration of SO$\_$4/$\^$2-/) increase with increasing discharge. It was found that the average concentration of Ca$\^$2+/ was highest and that of K$\^$+/ was lowest among cations.
