A simple colorimetric anion chemosensor based on 2-amino-6-nitrobenzothiazole was synthesized. The addition of tetrabutylammonium (TBA) salts of $F^-,\;{CH_3COO}^-,\;and\;{H_2PO_4}^-$ to the solution of receptor 3 caused dramatic and clearly observable color changes from light to dark yellow due to the deprotonation process which is totally different from previously reported receptors based on the same motif. According to the basicity of the anions, the sensitivity of receptor 3 towards various anions decreased in the following order: ${CH_3COO}^-\;>\;F^-\;>\;{H_2PO_4}^-$.

Theoretical studies on the base-catalyzed deprotonation of 4-phenacylpyridinium cations, R1-CO-CH2-C5H4N-R2, I (R1=YC6H4 -and R2=CH3), and II (R1=C6H5 and R2=CH2C6H4Y) have been carried out with bases, NH3 and XC6H4NH2 using AM1 MO method. The Brψnsted α values are 0.20 and 0.22 and the βB values are 0.62 and 0.61, respectively for cations I and II. The negative Ⅰ (=α-βB) values obtained are in accord with the experimental results in aqueous solution, although the theoretical gas-phase α values for I are somewhat smaller than the experimental values in water due to neglect of solvation effect. It has been stressed that the Brψnsted α is distorted not only by the lag in the resonance and solvation development in the carbanion, but also by the difference in the distance between the anionic center and substituents in the TS and in the product anion.

The last step in the photocycle of photoactive yellow protein (PYP) is a spontaneous recovery of the dark state from the active state in which the p-coumaric acid chromophore is thermally isomerized, concomitantly with the deprotona- tion of the chtomophore and the refolding of the protein moicty. For the purpose of understanding the mechanism of the thermal back-isomerization, we have investigated the rate-determining step by analyzing mutant PYPs of Met100, which was previously shown to play a major role in facilitating the reaction (1). The mutation to Lys, Leu, Ala, or Glu decelerated the dark state recovery by 1 to 3 three orders of magnitude. By evaluating temperature-dependence and pH-dependence of the kinetics of the dark state recovery, it was found that the retardation by mutations resulted from elevation of the activation enthalpy ( H$\^$┿/) and that the pKa of the chromophore, which was affected by the mutation, is in a linier correlation with the amplitude of the rate constants. It was, therefore, deduced from the correlation that the free energy for crossing the activated state in the dark recovery process is proportional to the free energy for the deprotonation of the chromophore, identifying the rate-determining step as the deprotonation of the chromophore.

The behavior of tyrosine(Tyr.) residue of Bombyx mori silk fiber from yellow fluorescent cocoon has been examined for the dependence of pH in aqueous silk solution under the presence of orange II salt. Through the peak separation of angular dependence of spectral pattern of 15N-Tyr. and [1-13C]-Tyr. between the fiber axis and the molecular bond direction, N-H bond in fiber as well as the orientation distribution around the fiber axis were analyzed. Also, and sericin component was obtained from these angular dependence of oriented spectral pattern. The pH dependence of the 13C NMR chemical shift of B. mori silk fibroin was examined in aqueous solution in the presince of orange II are broad at pH$\geq$7.0. However, these become sharper at pH$\geq$8.0 and remain sharp at higher pH. In these higher pH range, a chemical shift change occurs due to the deprotonation of the Tyr. side group of fibroin. At higher pH. such a hydrophobic cluster is destroyed because of the electrostatic interaction according to the deprotonation of the Tyr-OH group.

최근 들어 succinic acid는 기존의 용도 이외에도 생분해성 고분자의 원료물질로서 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 3차 amine인 TOA와 4차 amine 염인 Aliquat 336을 이용하여 succinic acid에 대한 반응추출을 실시하였다. 그 결과 Aliquat 336에 비해 TOA의 추출능이 더 높은 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 pH에 따른 추출능의 변화는 TOA, Aliquat 336 모두 pH 증가에 따라 추출능이 감소하는 것으로 나타났으며 Aliquat 336의 경우 pH의 영향은 TOA에 비해 적음을 알 수 있었다. succinic acid와 기하학적으로 다른 구조를 가지는 maleic acid의 경우 분자 내 수소 결합으로 인한 두 번째 카르복실기의 deprotonation이 어렵게 되므로 succinic acid에 비해 추출능이 좋은 것으로 나타났다.

1, 4-Diketo-3, 6-diphenyl-pyrrolo-[3, 4c]-pyrrole(abbriviated DPP) is a new heterocyclic pigment of red color whose chlorinated derivative is now on the market. DDP was synthesized from benzonitrile and diethylsuccinate. Pariser-parr-pople(PPP) molecular orbital calculations have been carried out on the DPP in other to study spectroscopically the DPP chromophore on deprotonation.

A new thiourea based receptor (1) was synthesized and applied to fluoride ion recognition in acetonitrile solution. Receptor 1 displayed dual changes in absorption and fluorescence emission intensities selectively for fluoride ions. The interaction of 1 with fluoride undergoes a deprotonation process that is confirmed by $^1H$ NMR titration.

The complex formation from Cu(Ⅱ) ion and 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)-2,2',2"-nitrilotriethanol (Bistris) in aqueous solution has been studied potentiometrically and spectrophotometrically. Bistris (L) coordinates to Cu(Ⅱ) as tridentate. The complex CuL2+ undergoes deprotonation in neutral and basic media. The deprotonated complexes involve metal-alcoholate coordinate bond in stable chelate structures.
