Methyl ester derived from coconut oil is very interesting to study since it contains free-fatty acid with chemical structure of medium carbon chain ($C_{12}-C_{14}$), so the methyl ester obtained from its part can be a biodiesel and another partially into biokerosene. The use of heterogeneous catalysts in the production of methyl ester requires severe conditions (high pressure and high temperature), while at low temperature and atmospheric conditions, yield of methyl ester is relatively very low. By using microwave irradiation trans-esterification reaction with heterogeneous catalysts, it is expected to be much faster and can give higher yields. Therefore, we studied the production of methyl ester from coconut oil using CaO catalyst assisted by microwave. Our aim was to find a kinetic model of methyl ester production through a transesterification process from coconut oil assisted by microwave using heterogeneous CaO catalyst. The experimental apparatus consisted of a batch reactor placed in a microwave oven equipped with a condenser, stirrer and temperature controllers. Batch process was conducted at atmospheric pressure with a variation of CaO catalyst concentration (0.5; 1.0; 1.5; 2.0, 2.5%) and microwave power (100, 264 and 400 W). In general, the production process of methyl esters by heterogeneous catalyst will obtain three layers, wherein the first layer is the product of methyl ester, the second layer is glycerol and the third layer is the catalyst. The experimental results show that the yield of methyl ester increases along with the increase of microwave power, catalyst concentration and reaction time. Kinetic model of methyl ester production can be represented by the following equation: $-r_{TG}=1.7{\cdot}10^6{_e}{\frac{-43.86}{RT}}C_{TG}$.

This study was carried out to investigate the dose-dependent effect of methyl jasmonate on both the adventitious root growth and the accumulation of various eleutherosides in the bioreactor culture of Eleutherococcus senticosus adventitious roots. The highest biomass production (5.4 g DW/L) was observed in the absence of methyl jasmonate and the root growth was significantly decreased by increasing the methyl jasmonate concentration. However, methyl jasmonate stimulated the production of both eleutheroside B, E and $E_1$. The highest level of eleutheroside B (359.9 ${\mu}g$/g DW) was obtained at 40 ${\mu}M$ of methyl jasmonate, while eleutheroside E and $E_1$ was accumulated at the highest level by the addition of 10 ${\mu}M$ of methyl jasmonate. Total eleutheroside was increased up to 3818.1 ${\mu}g$ per liter when 10 ${\mu}M$ of methyl jasmonate was applied. In addition, when the adventitious roots were cultured with 20 ${\mu}M$ of methyl jasmonate, the highest levels of eleutheroside B, E and $E_1$ were observed at the 12th, 3th and 9th days of culture, respectively.

An analytical method was developed to determine residues of haloxyfop-R and its methyl ester in soils and soybeans using gas-liquid chromatography (GLC) with electron capture detector (ECD). Soil or soybean sample was acidified and extracted with acetone. The extract was then subjected to ion-associated partition to individually separate haloxyfop-R and the neutral methyl ester. One phase containing haloxyfop-R was methylated with $BF_3$/methanol, partitioned to n-hexane and analyzed by GLC/ECD. The other phase containing the methyl ester was further purified by Florisil column chromatography prior to GLC determination. No cross contamination was found between two phases containing each of the acid and methyl ester, thus two compounds can be separately determined as the identical haloxyfop-R-methyl. Overall recoveries of haloxyfop-R from fortified samples averaged 88.2${\pm}$3.9% (n=12) and 88.3${\pm}$4.0% (n=6) for soils and soybeans respectively, and those of haloxyfop-R-methyl showed mean values of 89.2${\pm}$4.0% (n=12) and 85.6${\pm}$5.6% (n=6). Detection limits of both haloxyfop-R and its methyl esterwere 0.005㎎/㎏ and 0.01㎎/㎏ for soil and soybean samples respectively.

A laboratory experiment on methyl orange degradation in pulsed corona discharges was carried out. Effects of operating parameters such as applied voltage, pH, conductivity and initial concentration on methyl orange degradation were investigated. The pulsed corona discharges decreased the pH of solution and increased conductivity, probably due to products generated from methyl orange degradation by corona discharges. The decrease of initial pH enhanced the methyl orange degradation. The methyl orange degradation was fastest in $100{\mu}S/cm$ conductivity solution, followed by 50 and $200{\mu}S/cm$, indicating that $100{\mu}S/cm$ is the most favorable in the aspect of radical generation among the experimented conditions. The methyl orange of initial concentration from 20 to 60mg/L was effectively degraded in pulsed corona discharges. The lower initial concentration of methyl orange, the faster degradation was observed.

Methyl trans-cinnamate is a significant flavor compound of Tricholoma matsutake. Attempts were made to produce this compound by culturing the mycelium using submerged culture. No methyl trans-cinnamate could be detected when the mycelium was cultured in the basal liquid medium. However, the addition of Pinus desiflora extracts to the medium, methyl trans-cinnamate was largely produced. To find out compounds or fractions inducing methyl trans-cinnamate, dichloromethane fraction obtained from the wood extracts of P. densiflora was subjected to column chromatography. Three sub-fractions were obtained from the $CH_2CI_2$ fraction. Submerged cultured mycelium treated with sub-fraction 1 has the highest content of methyl trans-cinnamate. Maximum methyl trans-cinnamate $(470.2{\mu}g/g)$ was obtained when the first sub-fraction of dichloromethane fraction of the P. densiflora wood extracts was added to the medium. This indicates that wood extracts of P. densiflora contains inducer of the methyl trans-cinnamate production in the T. matsutake submerged culture.

This experiment was conducted to reduce the cost of orient leaf using izmir, samsun and basma scraps in cigarettes manufacturing process. We manufactured rolled and paper sheet tobacco using orient scraps and substituted orient leaf in Pine tree to the rolled and paper sheet tobacco using orient scraps. Orient scraps were lower in total sugar, total sugar/nicotine and total nitrogen/nicotine, higher in nicotine and crude ash than those of orient leaves. Izmir and basma scraps were higher of 2-methyl butanoic, 3-methyl butanoic and 3-methyl pentanoic acid, but the chemical contents in samw scraps were lower than those of orient leaves. The specific gravity thickness, flness index, filling value were similar between orient scraps blended sheet tobacco and present sheet tobacco. The physical characteristics of orient scraps blended sheet tobacco were within Present sheet tobacco quality specification. The sheet tobacco using orient scraps was higher 2-metal butanoic, 3-methyl butanoic and 3-methyl pentanoic acid than those of present sheet tobacco. The rolled processed sheet tobacco using orient scraps was higher 2-methyl butanoic, 3-methyl butanoic and 3-methyl Pentanoic acid than those of paper sheet tobacco using orient scraps. The sample cigarettes using orient scraps sheet tobacco were lower 2-methyl butanoic, 3-mettwl butanoic and 3-mettwl Pentanoic acid than those of control cigarettes. The result of sensory test showed no great difference compared with sample of orient scraps and control cigarettes. This result shows that we can possible to substitute orient leaf to orient scraps to reduce the cost of orient leaf.

-4,9-dione derivatives were prepared from $2-chloro-3-({\alpha}-accetyl-{\alpha}-ethoxycarbonyl-methyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone$ and 2-chloro-3-N-phenylamino-1,4-naphthoquinone. $2-Chloro-3-({\alpha}-acetyl-{\alpha}-ethoxycarbonyl-methyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone$ was reacted with amines to give $2-amino-3-({\alpha}-acetyl-{\alpha}-ethoxycarbonyl-methyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone$ derivatives. Subsequent treatment of $2-amino-3-({\alpha}-acetyl-{\alpha}-ethoxycarbonyl-methyl)-1,4-naphthoquinone$ with sodium ethoxide gave -4,9-dione derivatives. When 2-chloro-3-N-phenylamino-1,4-naphthoquinone reacted with sodium ${\alpha}-cyano$ ethyl acetate, 2-amino-3-ethoxycarbonyl-N-phenyl--4,9-dione was obtained. However, with sodium diethyl malonate, not -4,9-dione but 2-chloro-3-bis-(methoxycarbonyl)-methyl-2H-3-N-phenylamino-1,4-naphthoquinone was obtained.

Safening activities of optically active ${\alpha}$-methylbenzylphenylureas on crop injury of rice (Oryza sativa L., cv. Tsukinohikari, japonica) caused by bensulfuron-methyl (methyl 2-[[[[[(4,6-dimethoxy-2-pyrimidinyl)amino]carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl]methyl]benzoate) and pyribenzoxim (benzophenone o-[2,6-bis[(4,6-dimethoxy-2-pyrimidinyl)oxy]benzoyl]oxime) were investigated. Some derivatives of the optically active compounds exhibited strong safening activity against growth inhibition of rice by bensulfuron-methyl. Out of the derivatives tested, (S)-2,3-diCl and (S)-2-F-4-Me derivatives showed greater relieving activity than that of dymuron. In addition, the stress relieving activity was also obtained when they were applied at 4 days after bensulfuron-methyl treatment. On the other hand, crop injury caused by pyribenzoxim was relieved by about 95% with (S)-2-F-4-Me derivative in shoots and roots of rice seedlings.
