Metallacyclodimers, [Ag(OTf)($L1)]_2$ and [Ag($L2)]_2(OTf)_2$ (L1 = 1,3-dibromo-2,2-bis[(isonicotinoyloxy)methyl] propane; L2 = 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-bis(isonicotinoyloxy)hexane) were constructed and characterized. The crystal structure of [Ag(OTf)($L1)]_2$ reveals a 32-membered cyclodimer, whereas that of [Ag($L2)]_2(OTf)_2$ shows a linked 34-membered cyclodimer chain via intercyclic argentophilic (Ag…Ag) interactions. [Ag(OTf)($(L1)]_2$ affords “intramolecular $\pi-\pi$ interaction cyclodimer” whereas [Ag($L2)]_2(OTf)_2$ produces a racemic mixture of “twisted cyclodimer”. Ring-conformation of the cyclodimers was affected via the competition of electrostatic interaction and argentophilic interaction.

New binuclear Ni(Ⅱ) and Cu(Ⅱ) complexes with various alkyl derivatives of 1,2-bis(1,3,6,8,10,13-hexaaza-1-cyclotetradecyl) ethane, in which two fully saturated 14-membered hexaaza macrocyclic subunits are linked together by an ethylene chain, have been synthesized by the one step template condensations of formaldehyde with ethylenediamine and appropriate primary alkyl amines in the presence of the metal ions. Each macrocyclic subunit of the double-ring macrocyclic complexes contains one alkyl pendant arm and has a square planar geometry with a 5-6-5-6 chelate ring sequence. The visible spectra and oxidation properties indicate that the metal-metal interaction of the binuclear complexes are not significant. Synthesis, characterization, and the properties of the complexes are presented.

Polyhydroxylated benzamide 유도체의 구조변화에 따른 미백효과의 상관관계를 고찰하였다. Adamantyl benzamide 유도체에서 B ring 부분의 치환기가 catechol (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)인 경우 우수한 멜라닌 생성 저해활성을 보였으나, mono-hydroxyphenyl (3-OH 또는 4-OH)이거나 3,4-dimethoxyphenyl인 경우에 그 활성이 감소하거나 없어졌다. 따라서 catechol unit이 멜라닌 생성 저해에 중요한 인자임 을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 A-ring부분의 2-OH의 존재여부는 활성에 큰 영향을 주지는 않았고, A-ring과 B-ring을 연결하는 탄소사슬의 길이 역시 멜라닌 생성저해에 큰 영향을 주는 요소는 아니었다.

Phytochrome A (phyA) and phytochrome B (phyB) perceive light and adapt to fluctuating circumstances by different manners in terms of effective wavelengths, required fluence and photoreversibility. Action spectra for induction of seed germination and inhibition of hypocotyl elongation using phytochrome mutants of Arabidopsis showed major difference. PhyA is the principal photoreceptor for the very low fluence responses and the far-red light-induced high irradiance responses, while phyB controls low fluence response in a red/far-red reversible mode. The structural requirement of their bilin chromophores for photosensory specificity of phyA and phyB was investigated by reconstituting holophytochromes through feeding various synthetic bilins to the following chromophore-deficient mutants: hy1, hyl/phyA and hyl/phyB mutants of Arabidopsis. We found that the vinyl side-chain of the D-ring in phytochromobilin interacts with phyA apoprotein. This interaction plays a direct role in mediating the specific photosensory function of phyA. The ethyl side-chain of the D-ring in phycocyanobilin fails to interact with phyA apoprotein, therefore, phyA specific photosensory function is not observed. In contrast, both phytochromobilin and phycocyanobilin interact with phyB apoprotein and induce phyB specific photosensory functions. Structural requirements of the apoproteins and the chromophores for the specific photoperception of phyA and phyB are discussed.

Introduction : Polyimides are one of the most important classes of the high performance polymers due to their excellent electrical, thermal, and high-temperature mechanical properties. But their uses are limited because of their poor solubility. Most polyimide derivatives are processed in the form of polyamic acids, which are subsequently converted into the imide structures.Recently, it has been found that the soluble polyimides with large molecular weight sufficient to application. For enhancing processability, the majority of approaches have involved the following factors. As much as, the separation of the imide ring along the back-bone, that is to say, reducing the density of imide ring in the repeat structure. The introduction of bulky substituents along the back-bone, in order to enhance the free volume of main-chain. The incorporation of flexible or thermally stable linkages in the main-chain, reducing the packing force. The disruption of symmetry or recurrence regularity through copolymerization in order to reduce crystallnity.The objectives of this investigation are the synthesis and characterization of soluble polyimides as membrane materials by the single-step polymerization and the preparation of the asymmetric polyimide membrane by using phase inversion technique. In the present study, three series of polyimide derivatives are synthesized; H series is homopolyimides, A series is prepared from single dianhydride and two diamines, B series is yielded from two dianhydrides and a diamine. The dope solution was directly prepared from the PI solution via one step polymerization from monomers.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an important signaling protein involved in angiogenesis, which is the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing vessels. Consequently, blocking of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR-2) by small molecule inhibitors leads to the inhibition of cancer induced angiogenesis. In this study, we performed a two dimensional quantitative structure activity relationship (2D-QSAR) study of 38 N-Phenyl-N'-{4-(4-quinolyloxy) phenyl} urea derivatives as VEGFR-2 inhibitors based on hologram quantitative structure-activity (HQSAR). The model developed showed reasonable $q^2=0.521$ and $r^2=0.932$ values indicating good predictive ability and reliability. The atomic contribution map analysis of most active compound (compound 7) indicates that hydrogen and oxygen atoms in the side chain of ring A and oxygen atom in side chain of ring C contributes positively to the activity of the compounds. The HQSAR model developed and the atomic contribution map can serve as a guideline in designing new compounds for VEGFR-2 inhibition.

Although the performance of the commercial vessel has been dramatically improved through innovations, there has been no big changes on the traditional anchoring method of commercial vessels, both on design and operation until now. In this paper, two cases of design modifications were introduced for optimized design of pocket type anchor handling, which resulted in improved performance of the vessel's anchoring. From the first time fully balanced type anchors were applied on vessels in Korean shipyard, main design problem on this application was that the anchor doesn't normally slide into the pocket when the anchor fluke is not in line with pocket, as the anchor freely rotates by the swivel on forerunner. In order to prevent the problem, swivel has been deleted on the forerunner to prevent anchor rotation until now, but this solution caused problems such as twist lock of anchor chain, restriction of windlass direction, etc. On this paper, one of the solution is introduced to overcome the design problem by tilting the hawse pipe to some extent, which makes anchor turned at the time anchor ring touches the pocket skirt and that it properly slides into the pocket. Secondly, one of the solution is introduced to overcome misalignment problem between anchor chain cable and roller of chain compressor, which has been frequently occurred, by modification of roller design.

There are three plausible bioconversion pathways in biodegradation mechanism of capsaicinoids; first, side chain degradation through $\omega$-hydroxylation and $\beta$-oxidation, secondly, aromatic ring hydroxylation, and lastly, hydrolysis on the acidaraide linkage. In microbes, it was reported that capsaicin and its synthetic, analog, nonoylvanillylamide(NVA), could be metabolized to N-vanillylcarbamoylbutyric acid via $\omega$-hydroxylation and consecutive $\beta$-oxidations by Aspergillus niger. In order to broaden the scope of microbial degradation of capsaicinoids, over thirty strains of various fungi including Aspergillus, Penicillum, Mycotypha, Gliocladium, Paecilomyces, Byssoclamys, Conidiobolus, Thamnidium, and Entomophthora. It was observed that almost all the strains examined oxidized, the side chain of capsaicids as A. niger did. These observations strongly support the notion that side chain degradation is the most dominant pathway in the microbial degradation of capsaicinoids.

The operating principal of a ring laser gyroscope depends on the phase difference for the counter-propagating waves within a closed path. The reflecting mirrors mounted on the monoblock form the traveling waves. The manufacturing accuracy of the monoblock influences the traveling path of ray, the sensitivity of laser resonator for misalignments, and diffraction losses. A 3 $\times$ 3 ray transfer matrix was derived for optical components with centering and squaring errors in a ring resonator. The matrix can be utilized to predict the optical ray paths on the basis of the manufacturing errors of the monoblock as well as the misalignment of mirrors. Then the distance and orientation (o. slope) at the arbitrary plane inside the resonator along the ideal optical path can be calculated from the chain multiplication of the ray transfer matrix for each optical component in one round trip. We also show that the counter-propagating rays In a ring resonator with errors does not coincide in each round trip, which results in gain difference between two beams, and how these errors can be adjusted through the alignment procedure. Finally this 3 $\times$ 3 ray matrix formalism can be used to calculate the beam size and its displacement from the optical axis and the deviation at the diaphragm.

A series of aromatic poly(hydroxyamide)s (PHAs) containing varying oligo(oxyethylene) substituents and 1,3-phenylene imide ring unit in the main chain were synthesized by the direct polycondensation reaction. The inherent viscosities of the PHAs exhibited in the range of 0.89~1.12 dL/g in DMAc or DMAc/LiCl solution. The PH-2~5 copolymers were easily soluble in strong aprotic solvents: DMAc, NMP, DMSO etc. and the PH-5 copolymer was soluble in less polar solvents such as m-creasol and pyridine with LiCl salt on heating. However, all PBOs were quite insoluble in other solvents, but only partially soluble in sulfuric acid. All copolymers (PH-2~5) could afford the flexible and tough films by solution casting. We identified that the PHAs were converted to the PBOs by the thermal cyclization reaction in the range of $200{\sim}380^{\circ}C$. The 10% weight loss temperatures and char yields of the PBOs were recorded in the range of $382{\sim}647^{\circ}C$ and 38.7~73.1% values at $900^{\circ}C$. The tensile strength and initial modulus of the PH-5 in the copolmers showed the highest values of 2.46 GPa and 49.55 MPa, respectively. The LOI values of the PHAs were in the range 26.6~29.0%, and increased with increasing 1,3-phenylene imide ring unit.
