A hitherto unknown diphenylbutadiene analog viz. 1-(p-N,N-dimethylaminophenyl)-4-phenyl-2-methyl-1E,3E-butadiene (10) has been prepared and its absorption, excitation, and fluorescent emission properties in different media including various organic solvents and aqueous bovine serum albumin (BSA) have been studied. For comparision, these properties have also been investigated for the parent diphenylbutadiene (2). Diene 10 exhibits solvent polarity/polarizability-sensitive fluorescence properties ($\lambda$$_{max}$, $\Phi$$_f$, $\tau$$_f$, K$_f$, f). It also binds to the hydrophobic domains of aqueous bovine serum albumin (BSA) with a binding constant of 3.89 x 10$^4$ M$^{-1}$. The relative fluorescence quantum yield of 10 increases, while, the fluorescence lifetime decreases with increasing concentration of-BSA. The results highlight the polar character of the singlet excited state of diphenylpolyenes and the utility of 10 as fluorescence probe for studying microenvironments of organized assemblies and biological supramolecular structures.

Anion exchange polymer electrolyte pore-filling membranes consisting of the whole hydrocarbon materials were prepared by photo polymerization with various quaternary ammonium cationic monomers and characterized on the properties for applying to solid alkali fuel cell (SAFC). Hydrocarbon porous substrates such as polyethylene were used for the preparation of the pore-filling membranes. The hydroxyl ion conductivity of the polymer electrolyte membranes prepared in this research was dependent on the composition ratio of an electrolyte monomer and crosslinking agents used for polymerization. Furthermore, these pore-filling membranes have commonly excellent properties such as smaller dimensional affects when swollen in solvents, higher mechanical strength, lower fuel crossover through the membranes, and easier preparation process than those of traditional cast membranes.

The production of lac case by the funguson various media was studied. The characteristics of the enzyme were also studied regarding to the optimum pH, stability, Km value, and inactivation. The maximum activity of laccase reached the 40 days of incubation and the barley straw extract appeared to be a strong inducer for laccase. The enzyme showed stability at wide range of pH with optimum pH of 6.6. Temperature stability of the enzyme was high. Laccase was not inactivated by the organic solvents used for the precipitation. The enzyme, how­ever, was completely inactivated by trichloroacetic acid and sodium azide.

This studies were conducted to investigate the effect of extraction and evaporating conditions on the free sugar in ginseng extracts. Raw ginseng roots were extracted with water or various concentration of water-ethanol solutions. Then the extracts were evaporated by boiling or vacuum evaporated at 50 $^{\circ}C$ and 70 $^{\circ}C$. The results are as follows Sucrose and maltose contents were 7.95% and 12.8% in water extracts and 19.96%, 0.34-0.93% in 90% ethanol extracts, respectively. On the otherhand, glucose and fructose contents were not affected by the solvents. Evaporating conditions, such as temperature, were rarely effected to the sugar contents.

A bent-shape triazolyl derivative was synthesized via click chemistry, and its photophysical property was investigated in various solvents. In contrast to the invisible ultraviolet emission of other solutions, the chloroform solution exhibited a blue light emission at 460 nm. Furthermore, the blue fluorescence intensified as the UV exposure time at 365 nm increased. On the basis of $^1H$-NMR, pH paper, and acid-addition studies, we confirmed that chloroform was decomposed into HCl with the aid of the triazolyl derivative. The density functional theory calculations suggested that the eye-detectable blue fluorescence was attributed to an intramolecular charge transfer process of the protonated triazolyl derivative in the chloroform solution.

Catalytic performance of Lewis acids have been investigated in the synthesis of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines via cyclocondensation reaction of aniline derivatives with cyclic enol ethers such as 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran and 2,3-dihydrofuran. The catalytic activity of various of these catalysts in different solvents was compared with other classical catalysts such as KSF clay (1.5 g), $InCl_3$ (10-20 mol%), $ZrOCl_2$ (10 mol%), $Sc(OTf)_3$ (3 mol%), PANI-$InCl_3$ (10 mol%), $I_2$ (20 mol%), $InCl_3$ (5 mol%), 4-npa (25 mol%) and Cellulose-$SO_3H$ (0.03 g).

Rapid and facile syntheses of N-alkenyl lactam series via condensation between lactams and a variety of aldehydes such as n-propanal, isobutanal, n-butanal, n-hexanal, n-octanal and phenylacetaldehyde were studied under microwave or conventional heating. Various solid catalysts and solvents were examined to maximize the yields of condensation reactions.

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.

The direct chromatographic separation of enantiomers by chiral stationary phases (CSPs) has been extensively developed over the past two decades, and has now become the most popular method for the analytical and preparative separations of enantiomers. Polysaccharide derivatives coated onto silica gel, as CSPs, playa significantly important role in the enantioseparations of a wide range of chiral compounds using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Unfortunately, the strict solvent limitation of the mobile phases is the main defect in the method developments of these types of coated CSPs. Therefore, the immobilization of polysaccharide derivatives onto silica gel, via chemical bonding, to obtain a new generation of CSPs compatible with the universal solvents used in HPLC is increasingly important. In this article, our recent studies on the immobilization of polysaccharide derivatives onto the silica gel, as CSPs, through radical copolymerization with various vinyl monomers are reported. Polysaccharide derivatives, with low vinyl content, can be efficiently fixed onto silica gel with high chiral recognition.

Symmetric asymmetric and composite perfluoropolymer membranes made with HYFLON AD have been prepared and evaluated. Porous and non porous symmetric membranes have been prepared by solvent evaporation with various processing conditions. Non-contact atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to investigate the membrane morphology in air. Analysis of the images gave quantitative imformation on the surface pore strcture in particular on the pore size distributin. Possible useful uses of porous membranes are envisaged in the field of gas-liquid separations such as membrane contactors (MSc) Molecular Dynamics(MD) simulations structure of HYFLON AD 60X copolymer supporting these results are also reported. Amorphous perfluoropolymer membranes appears to be ideal other than in MCs when separation processes have to be performed in hostile environments i.e. high temperatures and aggressive non-aqueous media such as chemicals and solvents. In these cases HYFLON AD mem-branes can exploit the outstanding resistance of perfluoropolymers.
