Biodiesel produced from triglyceride which is main component of animal fats and vegetable oils by methanolysis was known for excellent lubricity. In this study, the lubricity of 12 kinds of biodiesel come from vegetable oils were analyzed using HFRR(High frequency reciprocating rig). The biodiesel synthesized from soybean oil has best lubricity by $153{\mu}m$ of wear scar in HFRR and used fried oil's biodiesel has slightly low lubricity by $299{\mu}m$. Also we have found that the lubricity of diesel was improved when mixing ratio of soybean biodiesel was increased in base diesel.

Amino alcohol-derived thiazolidinethiones [4-(S)-IPTT, 4(S)-ETT] serve as efficient chiral auxiliary in tin medicated aldol condensation. A highly enantioselective aldol-type reaction forming various ${\beta}$-hydroxy carbonyl compounds from 3-acetylthiazolidine-2-thione and achiral aldehyde is achieved via divalent tin enolate. The other advantages of these chiral auxiliaries were the ease of removal by methanolysis.

acs gene cloning was constructed by subcloning the 2.2-kb MunI-MunI restriction fragment of 638 and 639 which include acs gene from the kohara phage into the unique EcoRI site of pUC18 and pJM9131 containing the PHA biosynthesis genes. Then recombinant E. coli fadRatoC(Con) mutants containing the polyhydroxyalkanoate(PHA) biosynthesis genes are able to incoporate s significant levels of 3-hydroxyvalerate (3HV) into the copolymer [P(3HB-co-3HV)]. Quantitative determination of PHB and P(3HB-co-3HV) was performed by gas-chromatographic analysis of extracts obtained from methanolysis of lyophilized cells.

The solvolysis rate constants of 3,4- (1) and 3,5-dimethoxybenzoyl (2) chlorides were measured in various pure and binary solvents at $25.0^{\circ}C$, and studied by application of the extended Grunwald-Winstein (G-W) equation, kinetic solvent isotope effect in methanolysis and activation parameters. The solvolysis of 1 was interpreted as the unimolecular pathway due to a predominant resonance effect from para-methoxy substituent like 4-methoxybenzoyl chloride (3), while that of 2 was evaluated as the dual mechanism, with unimolecular or bimolecular reaction pathway according to the character of solvent systems (high electrophilic/nucleophilic) chosen, caused by the inductive effect by two meta-methoxy substituents, no resonance one. In the solvolyses of 1 and 2 with two $-OCH_3$ groups, the resonance effect of para-methoxy substituent is more important to decide the mechanism than the inductive effect with other corresponding evidences.

Emulsified transesterification of soybean oil into biodiesel was investigated using potassium hydroxide and sodium methoxide catalysts with methyl glucoside oleic polyester as a methanol-in-oil emulsifier. The transesterification reaction conditions were optimized to obtain high yields of fatty acid methyl esters of the quality defined by biodiesel standards. The developed process resulted in $95{\sim}96%$ of overall yield from soybean oil by alkali-catalyzed methanolysis at $45^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature with 6:1 of methanol-to-oil molar ratio and 1(v/v)% methyl glucoside oleic polyester in the presense of 0.8wt% KOH and 1.2wt% $NaOCH_{3}$.

Solvolyses of methanesulfonyl chloride (CH3SO2Cl) in water and methanol have been studied theoretically using ab initio self-consistent reaction field (SCRF) molecular orbital method. All stationary structures including transition state on the potential energy surface in solution have been found and compared with the gas phase structures. The overall reaction occurs via a concerted SN2 mechanism with a non-cyclic trigonal bipyramidal transition state, and the activation barrier is lowered significantly in solution. The transition state for the hydrolysis reaction is looser than that for the methanolysis reaction, and this is in accord with the experimental findings that an SN2 type mechanism, which is shifted toward an SN1 process or an SAN process in the hydrolysis and alcoholysis reaction, respectively, takes place. The catalytic role of additional solvent molecules appears to be a purely general-base catalysis based on the linear transition structures. Experimental barrier can be estimated by taking into account the desolvation energy of nucleophile in the reaction of methanesulfonyl chloride with bulk solvent cluster as a nucleophile.

Rate constants of methanolyses of para-Z-substituted benzenesulfonyl chlorides have been determined in various isodielectric solvent mixtures. A third-order kinetic behavior has been observed in the methanolysis of p-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride in methanol-nitromethane mixture from the correlation figure of logarithms of rate constants were plotted against Y-values based on solvolyses of 1-adamantyl tosylate. $S_N1$-$S_N2$ mixing mechanisms are favored by neutral or weak electron-donating and weak electron-withdrawing substituents of p-Z-substituted benzenesulfonyl chlorides in methanol-nitrobenzene mixture. While the methanolyses of para-Z-substituted benzenesulfonyl chlorides in methanol-ethylene glycol solvent mixture are appropriate for $S_N2$ mechanism from the mechanistic criterion by means of m-values.

In this study, the optimization of the biodiesel production process from waste oil using microwave with response surface methodology (RSM) was conducted. The microwave irradiation time and power in addition to the alcohol/oil mole ratio were chosen as process parameters. Also the fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) content (over 96.5%) and kinematic viscosity (1.9~5.5 cSt) were selected as response values. From basic experiments, the range of quantitative factors were set as following; 4~6 min, 400~600 W, and 7~9 for the microwave irradiation time and power, and alcohol/oil molar ratio, respectively. The optimum conditions for the methanolysis were 5.0~5.1 min, 481.3~525.5 W, 7.9~8.4, and 2.0 or 3.0 mg KOH/g for the microwave irradiation time and power, methanol/oil molar ratio, and each acid value, respectively. The FAME content and kinematic viscosity were predicted as 97.49~96.34% and 4.01~4.12 cSt, respectively, under the condition above. Under the optimum experimental conditions, the results showed that the FAME content and kinematic viscosity of 97.82~96.42% and 4.07~4.16 cSt, respectively were measured and the mean error rates were 0.22% and 0.98%, respectively.

The rates of solvolysis of 4-morpholinecarbonyl chloride (MPC) have measured at $35.0^{\circ}C$ in water, $D_2O$, $CH_3OD$, and in aqueous binary mixtures of acetone, ethanol, methanol, and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol. An extended (two-term) Grunwald-Winstein equation correlation gave sensitivities towards changes in solvent nucleophilicity and solvent ionizing power as expected for a dissociative $S_N2$ and/or $S_N1$(ionization) pathway. For nine solvents specific rates were determined at two additional temperatures and higher enthalpies and smaller negative entropies of activation were observed, consistent with the typical dissociative $S_N2$ or $S_N1$(ionization) pathway. The solvent deuterium isotope effect values for the hydrolysis of MPC of $k_{H_2O}/k_{D_2O}$ = 1.27 and for the methanolysis of MPC of $k_{MeOH}/k_{MeOD}$ = 1.22 are typical magnitudes of the $S_N1$ or ionization mechanism.
