Pentacyclo ($5,3,0,0^{2,5},06{3,9},0^{4,8})-decane-6,10-dione was synthesized from the cyclopentanone in good overall yield(60%). Cyclopentanone ethylene ketal(Ⅰ) was brominated with pyridinium bromide perbromide, and the brominated ketal(Ⅱ) was converted to the dimer of cyclopentadienone ethylene ketal(Ⅲ). The ethylene ketal(Ⅲ) was again converted to the dicyclopentadiene-1,8-dione(Ⅳ). Finally, the pentacyclo ($5,3,0,0^{2,5},06{3,9},0^{4,8})-decane-6,10-dione(Ⅴ) was synthesized from the dicyclopentadilene-1,8-dione(Ⅳ) by photochemical cyclization.

A range of methine dyes has been synthesized by condensation of highly electronegative active methylene compound dicyanomethylenecyclopentane derived from cyclopentanone with the formyl group of substituted benzaldehydes. The electronic absorption spectroscopic properties of the dyes were investigated. In general, substituents on the aromatic aldehyde moiety have a significant effect on the visible absorption maxima of the dyes; increasing the solvent polarity also showed a pronounced effect on the absorption maxima.

Palladium dichloro complexes catalysed the oxidation of cyclopentene by dioxygen in tetralin solvent at ambient temperature. Cyclopentanone formed mainly together with autoxidation products from both cyclopentene and tetralin. The oxidation seems to proceed by co-oxidation mechanism, where tetralin was first oxidized to its hydroperoxide which then oxidized cyclopentene to cyclopentanone. Mechanism of the other by-products formations has been discussed.

The reactions of semicarbazide hydrochloride with aliphatic and alicyclic ketones were studied kinetically at 15, 25, 35 and 45$^{\circ}C$ in 20% ethanol solution buffered at pH 2.9. The rate of cyclohexanone semicarbazone formation is 5.5 times as fast as that of cyclopentanone semicarbazone, while 3-pentanone semicarbazone is 4.7 times as slow as that of 2-pentanone, The activation energy of cyclohexanone, 2-pentanone, 2 hexanone, cyclopentanone, 4-methyl-2-pentanone and 3-pentanone semicarbazone formation are calculated 5.08, 7.52, 8.79, 9.59, 9.49, 11.59, respectively. It is concluded from the effect of ionic strength that the reaction is affected by not ion but neutral molecules being progressed hydrogen bond between oxygen atom of carbonyl group and hydrogen atom of acid-catalyst and concerted nucleophilic attack of free base on the carbonly compound. Dependence on pH of the rate of 2-pentanone semicarbozone formation is linear relationship below pH 4.60 and above pH 5.60. As a result of studing citric acid catalysis, second order constants increase linearly with citric acid concentration. As the catalyst concentration is varied from 0.025 to 0.10 mol/1 at pH 2.90, the rate constants increase 1.4 times, but slight increase is observed at pH 5.60. Conclusively, the rate-determining step is formation of tetrahedral interemediate below pH 4.65 and dehydration between pH 5.60 and pH 7.11. It is concluded that the formation reaction of cyclohexanone semicarbazone is faster than cyclopentanone semicarbazone due to the steric strain in the process of forming tetrahedral intermediate.

We demonstrate z-scan method as a tool for investigating the molecular orientational order in organic solution when high static electric field is applied. Experiments are performed for the solution of 0.5% (by weight) 4-dimethylamino-4'-nitrostilbene in cyclopentanone and nonlinear refractive index $n_{2}$, is measured to be $-0.905\times10^{-8}\textrm{cm}^2/MW$ at $1.064{\mu}m$. When static electric field of 3.45 KV fmm is applied, the anisotropy ratio of n, is measured to be 1.34 and the molecular orientational order parameters $

_4$ are found to be 0.092 and -0.128, respectively. ively.

The triketones 3-6 were obtained by alkylation of cyclopentanone or cyclohexanone with the appropriate cycloalkanone bis-mannich base (1) or (2). Schmidt reaction of the tricketones 3-6 afforded the corresponding trcyclic lactames 7-10 respectively. reduction of 7 and 9 gave compounds 11 and 12 respectively.

Possibility of two phase reduction of carbonyl compounds to the corresponding alcohols was studied. Thus the 0.5 M ether solutions of the representative carbonyl compounds were treated with alkaline stabilized sodium borohydride aqueous solution at room temperature. Butyraldehyde was reduced rapidly within one hr., whereas other aldehydes tested; heptaldehyde, benzaldehyde, and 1-naphthaldehyde were reduced in 6-12 hr. 2-Heptanone was reduced much slowly; 87% in 48 hr., however, acetophenone was reduced moderately; 92% in 12 hr. and cycloalkanones were reduced rapidly (cyclohexanone in 0.5 hr., and cyclopentanone in 3-6 hr.).

Selective reduction of aldoximes and ketoximes with lithium borohydride in tetrahydrofuran was investigated. Thus, aldoximes and cyclic ketoximes such as hexanaldoxime, heptanaldoxime, cyclopentanone oxime and cyclohexanone oxime were reduced smoothly to the corresponding N-monosubstituted hydroxylamines at room temperature in 65-93% yield. The reduction of alicyclic ketoxime was very slow, requiring somewhat high reaction temperature ($65^{\circ}C$) for the complete reduction to give the hydroxnylamines. The reduction of aromatic oximes such as benzaldoxime and acetophenone oxime was very sluggish, giving a mixture of the corresponding hydroxylamines and amines at $65^{\circ}C$.

The Grignard reaction of methyl pyropheophorbide-a (MPP-a) was performed to introduce lengthy alkyl chain for improving lipophilicity. After the introduction of alkyl chain to the both of carbonyls, peripheral aldehyde and cyclopentanone, the obtained diol 3 was subjected to dehydration to give monodehydrate product 4 selectively. The Qy band of prepared compounds were affected by the substituents on the Qy axis (N$\sub$21/-N$\sub$23/).

A bacterium, which can utilize cyclohexanol as a sole source of carbon and energy, was isolated from sludge in sewage of Ulsan Industrial Complex for Petrochemicals, Korea and identified as Rhodococcus sp. TK6. The growth conditions of the bacteria were investigated in cyclohexanol containing media. The bacteria utilized cyclohexanol, cyclohexanone, cyclohexane-1,2=diol, cyclopentanol, cyclopentanone, and $\varepsilon$-caprolactone but not cyclohexane, cyclohexane-1,2-dione, and cyclooctanone. The bacteria were able to utilize alcohols such as ethanol, 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-pentanol, 1-hexanol, 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-propanol, and 2-butanol as well as cyclohexanol, organic acids such as adipate, propionate, butyrate, valerate, n-caproate, and 6-hydroxycaproate, and aromatic compounds such as phenol, salicylate, p-hydroxbenzoate, and benzoate as a sole source of carbon and energy. Cyclohexanone as a degradation product of cyclohexanol by Rhodococcus sp. TK6 was determined with gas chromatography.
