The effect of solvent structure on the slope in the plot of ln K vs. solute carbon number was examined. It was found that the free energy of methylene group transfer from the gas phase into a solvent was always negative and that the absolute magnitude of interaction free energy between the methylene group and the solvent was always larger than the absolute magnitude of cavity formation free energy of the methylene group in the solvent. Thus, the slope in the plot of ln K vs. solute carbon number was always positive and its value decreases with increase of solvent polarity since the cavity formation energy of the CH₂ unit increases with increase of solvent polarity while the dispersive interaction energy of the CH₂ unit is virtually invariant. We also examined the effect of sequential addition of CH₂ unit to a solvent molecule upon ln K for three homologous series of solvents: n-alkanes, n-alcohols, and n-nitriles. Characteristic trends in the plots of ln K vs. solvent carbon number were observed for individual solvent groups. A decrease of ln K with solvent carbon number was observed for n-alkanes. An abrupt increase in ln K followed by levelling off was observed for n-alcohols while a final slight decrease in ln K after an abrupt increase followed by rapid levelling off was noted for n-nitriles. All of theses phenomena were found related to variation in cavity formation energy. It was clearly shown that a structural change of a polar solvent by sequential addition of CH₂ units causes an abrupt polarity decrease initially, then gradual levelling off, and finally, conversion to a virtually nonpolar solvent if enough CH₂ units are added.

A cholesterol-bridge-naphthopyran dyad (NP-MCB) was designed and synthesized. NP-MCB can readily self-assemble into gels under ultrasound-radiation in several organic solvents and the formed gels easily transfer to solution by heat. This reversible process can be repeated many times. Scanning Electron Microscopy results showed that the morphologies of all formed xerogels in different solvents have fibrillar microstructure. The gels formation was due to energy and pressure afforded by the ultrasonic process, resulting in formation of molecular hydrogen bonding and molecular aggregation. NP-MCB displayed the normal photochromism both in solution and gel states. The kinetic results confirm that the colored merocyanine in gels show a slower fading speed than that in solution due to the compact aggregation of NP-MCB molecules in gels. The xerogel film formed in polar gelling solvent had large surface wettability than that in nonpolar gelling solvent.

Germanium (Ge) content in Zingiberis Rhizoma was determined by flameless atomic absorption spectrometry with a graphite tube atomizer. The Ge content of the cortical layer was 65.mu.g/g, the central cylinder, $98\mu$g/g and the total, $87\mu$g/g. In the effect of the extraction of Ge by various solvents, polar solvent was more effective than the nonpolar one, Especially, water was the most effective solvent. The water extract of Zingiberis Rhizoma, separated by sephadex G-25 gel filtration, was fractionated into 2 peaks at 254nm. Both the peaks showed atomic absorptions of Ge. It may be concluded that the Ge components of Zingiberis Rbizoma exist as the form of an aqueous organic compounds or associated forms with proteins.

A series of wholly aromatic polyhyroxyamide (PHA) copolymers were prepared by direct polycondensation reaction of isophthalic acid and diacids containing bulky units with 3,3'-dihydroxybenzidine. The inherent viscosities of the PHAs measured at 35℃ in DMAc solution were in the range of 0.31-0.56 dL/g. The solubility study revealed that the PHAs were readily soluble in aprotic solvents such as, dimethylacetamide (DMAc), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) at room temperature and in less polar solvent such as pyridine. However, the polybenzoxazole (PBO) copoymers were quite insoluble in all organic solvents except partially soluble in concentrated sulfuric acid and partially soluble in NMP containing LiCl. The PBO copolymers showed maximum weight loss temperature in the range of 593-632℃ and high char yields in the range of 65.0-71.2% at 900℃ in a nitrogen atmosphere.

Objective: The aim of this study is to optimize the extraction of beneficial substance from Cudrania tricuspidata leaves grown at Jirisan Mountain in South Korea by three different solvents depending on extraction time and at different temperature. Methods: The total phenolic contents were determined by the method reported by $S{\acute{a}}nchez$-Moreno et al. The total flavonoid contents were analyzed by Slinkard and Singleton. The DPPH radical scavenging activity was determined according to the method reported by Blois Results: The extraction yield for each solvent is 9.05-14.1%, 2.17-5.67%, and 2.3-3.9% for D.W., ethanol, and hexane, respectively. The overall results were maximized for the extract obtained with D.W. for 5 min at $100^{\circ}C$. The average phenol contents were 77.11, 45.64, and 0.343 mg/g at $100^{\circ}C$ in water, $78^{\circ}C$ in ethanol, and $68^{\circ}C$ in hexane, respectively. The flavonoid contents were the highest in the materials extracted with D.W., and were increased with increasing temperature, regardless of the extraction solvents, whether water (green), polar organic ethanol, or nonpolar organic hexane. In the ethanol extract, the flavonoid contents are increased gradually from 5.66 mg/g to 7.73 mg/g. The total flavonoid contents were proportional to the concentrations of the water extracts, ranging from 4.14 mg/g to 48.89 mg/g. The antioxidative activities of the water-extracted compounds are generally increased with increasing temperature from 42.5% to 85.5%. Those of the hexane extracts are increased slowly from 3.79% to 8.8%, while those of ethanol extracts are increased from 29.8% to 47.4%. Conclusion: The extraction yields were dependent upon solvents for extraction as well as extraction time and the temperature. The optimal extraction time was 5 min and the extraction yields were increased with increasing temperature excepted hexane. Of the three tested extraction solvents, the greenest solvent of water shows excellent results, suggesting that water is among the most effective solvents for natural sample extractions for general medicinal, pharmaceutical, and food applications.

This study was carried out to characterize sources of atmospheric total suspended particulates (TSP) in urban and sub--urban areas of metropolitan taegu. The sources were tentatively identified by a multivariate technique, i.e. principal component analysis (PCA), and the source contributions to the atmospheric concentrations of TSP were further estimated by stepwise multiple regression analysis. A total of 5 sources was identified in the urban area of Taegu (soil dust resuspension, fuel combustion, secondary aerosol, traffic related aerosol, and refuge burning), while 4 sources were found to be significant in the sub--urban area as following: fuel combustion/secondary aerosol, soil dust resuspension, traffic related aerosol, and wood/agricultural burning. The largest contributor to the atmospheric TSP appeared to be the soil dust resuspension in both areas. The source apportionment of the extractable organic matter (EOM) was also carried out for the Taegu data. The EOM was determined with respect to the solvent polarity, i.e. cyclohexane (non-polar), dichloromethane (semi--polar), and acetone (polar). In addition, the source profiles for the TSP in Taegu area were estimated using a PCA-based algorithm, and the validity was evaluated tentatively by comparing the data in the literature.

The use of ionic liquids as reaction media can confer many advantages upon catalytic reactions over reactions in organic solvents. In ionic liquids, catalysts having polar or ionic character can easily be immobilized without additional structural modification and thus the ionic solutions containing the catalyst can easily be separated from the reagents and reaction products, and then, be reused. More interestingly, switching from an organic solvent to an ionic liquid often results in a significant improvement in catalytic performance (e.g., rate acceleration, (enantio)selectivity improvement and an increase in catalyst stability). In this review, some recent interesting results which can nicely demonstrate these positive “ionic liquid effect” on catalysis are discussed.

It has been known that the organic base complexes formed with the anionic acid base indicators are highly soluble in non-polar solvents but relatively insoluble in water. In the work reported here the formation of the complex between chloropromazine and bromothymol blue was studied and applied it to the determination of the base. The values to determine the binding ratio of the base with the indicator at pH 3.5 obtained from the application of Job's method of continuous variation and mol ratio method were both 1:1. From the application of this reaction to the determination of the base with carbon tetrachloride as the solvent for the extraction, fairy good results have been obtained.

리파제는 모노, 디, 트리글리세리드 분자 내의 에스테르 결합을 가수분해 시키는 효소로 잘 알려져 있다. 그런데, 이 효소의 기질인 유지는 물에 용해되지 않아 그 반응이 불균일계에서 일어남으로 리파제 반응의 반응속도론적 해석이 곤란하였다. 이러한 성질은 유지공업에서 리파제를 산업적 촉매로 사용하는데 커다란 장해 요인이 되었었다. 그러나, 최근에 이상계, 역미셀계, 미수계와 같이 반응매질로 유기용매를 도입한 효소반응계가 개발됨에 따라 리파제를 이용한 유지의 전환에 대한 관심이 집중하는 추세에 있다. 리파제를 사용하여 유지를 가수분해시킴으로써 지방간을 생산하고자 할 때 효소반응계로 재래식의 에멀젼보다 이상계 또는 역미셀계를 사용하면 생산성, 굳기름의 가수분해 속도, 생성물 분리등의 측면에서 전체 공정의 효율이 향상될 수 있었다. 한편, 미수계에서 리파제는 에멀젼에서는 불가능한 에스테르 교환반응, 글리세리드 합성, aminolysis, thiotransesterification 및 oximolysis 같은 반응을 촉매 할 수 있는 획기적인 특성을 나타냈다. 공업적 측면에서 이 반응계는 물리적 또는 화학적 특성 (특히 융점)이 변형된 유지를 생산하고자 하는 에스테르 교환반응의 효소반응계로 널리 이용되고 있다. 앞으로 유기용매 내에서 효소의 안정성을 확보할 수 있는 수단 및 연속조작이 가능한 효소반응기의 개발에 관한 연구가 계속된다면 이러한 효소공정이 공업적 제조기술로 발전될 수 있을 것이다.

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)는 압전성을 나타내는 대표적인 고분자로 1960년대부터 많은 연구가 진행되어 왔다. PVDF는 반결정의 고분자로써 5가지의 결정 구조(${\alpha}$, ${\beta}$, ${\gamma}$, ${\delta}$, 그리고 ${\varepsilon}$형)로 구성되어 있다. ${\alpha}$형과 ${\delta}$형 결정은 전기적으로 반응하지 않는 무극성 결정구조이나 ${\beta}$형, ${\gamma}$형 그리고 ${\varepsilon}$형은 전기적으로 반응하는 극성 결정구조이다. 그 중에서도 ${\beta}$형 결정구조는 트랜스 형 분자 쇄가 평행으로 충진 된 형태로서 PVDF 단위체가 갖는 영구 쌍극자가 모두 한 방향으로 배열되어 있는 구조이기 때문에 자발 분극이 커지게 되고 압전성을 나타내게 된다. 일반적으로 ${\beta}$형 결정구조는 연신을 통한 ${\alpha}$형 결정구조의 변환을 통하여 얻을 수 있고, 연신 후 후처리 공정을 통해 그 양을 증가시킬 수 있다. 습식방사로 제조된 PVDF 섬유는 응고욕에서 극성 용매의 확산 메커니즘에 의해 ${\beta}$형 결정구조가 형성되는 장점을 가지고 있지만 극성 용매가 빠져나감과 동시에 섬유 고화가 진행되기 때문에 용매의 확산 경로가 섬유 내부 기공으로 남게 되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이 기공은 폴링(Poling) 공정에서 전기장에 의한 분극을 방해하여 그 효과를 감소시키는 역할을 한다. 또한, PVDF 섬유가 압전 특성을 필요로 하는 응용분야에 사용되기 위해서는 섬유 가공 후에 전극이 반드시 부착되어야 하는데 섬유 형태로 제조된 PVDF에 전극을 형성하기는 매우 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 압전성을 갖는 PVDF 섬유를 습식 방사와 건식 방사의 혼합 공정으로 제조하여 기공 문제를 해결하였고, 전극이 섬유 내부에 삽입된 Core/Shell 형태의 PVDF 섬유를 제조하여 까다로운 전극형성 문제를 해결하였다.
