The kinetics and mechanism of reduction of Cu(II) with an excess D-penicillamine have been examined at pH = 6.2 and 0.60M in ionic strength. The reaction at the initial stage is biphasic with a rapid complexation process to give "red" transient complex of $[Cu(II)(pen)_2]^2$- that is partially reduced to another transient "brown" intermediate. The "brown" intermediate is finally reduced to diamagnetic "yellow" complex, $[Cu(I)(Hpen)]_n$. The final reduction process is pseudo-first order in ["brown" transient] disappearance $with {\kappa} = {{\kappa}_{3a} + {\kappa}_{3b}[pen]^{2-}},$ where ${\kappa}_{3a} = (5.0{\pm}0.8){\times}10^{-3}sec^{-1}$ and ${\kappa} = (0.14{\pm}0.02) M^{-1}sec^{-1}$ at $25^{\circ}C$. The activation parameters for the $[H_2pen]$-independent and $[H_2pen]$-dependent paths are ${\Delta}H^{\neq} = (52{\pm}5)kJmol^{-1},$ and ${\Delta}S^{\neq} = ( - 27{\pm}3)JK^{-1}mo^{l-1},$ and ${\Delta}H^{\neq} = (56{\pm}2)kJmol^{-1}$ and ${\Delta} S^{\neq} = ( - 18{\pm}0.7)JK^{-1}mol^{-1}$ respectively. The nature of "brown" intermediate is not clearly identified, but this intermediate seems to be in the mixed-valence state, judging from the kinetic and spectroscopic informations.

Recently, Lee et al. claimed that LK-99 isthe first room-temperature superconductor at ambient pressure, which quickly captured the attention of both the scientific community and the general public. We tried to replicate Pb_10-xCu_x(PO₄)₆O, called as LK-99, and characterized its physical properties by measuring the electrical resistance and Meissner effect. The electrical resistance results for different batches exhibited structural phase transitions at different temperatures, and the magnetic measurements indicated weak diamagnetism at 300 K, which is weaker than that of water. Taken together with the structural analysis, these results suggest that the resistivity transitions are incurred by Cu-S compound generated as a byproduct during the synthesis of LK-99 and LK-99 is not a room-temperature superconductor.

A series of homo binuclear complexs of the type $[M_2(L/L^')(NO_3)n].mH_2O$, [where $M=U{O_2}^{2+},\;Th^{4+},\;ZrO^{2+}$] and $[(VO)_2(L/L^')(SO_4)_2]{\cdot}2H_2O$, L=1,5,6,9,12,15,16,20 octaaza-7,813,14-tetraphenyl-2,4,17,19-tetramethyl-1,4,6,8,12,14,16,19-docosaoctene (OTTDO) or L'=10:11;21:22-dibenzo-1,5,6,9,12,15,16,20-octaaza-7,813,14-tetraphenyl-2,4,17,19-tetramethyl-1,4,6,8,12,14,16,19-docosaoctene (DOTTOT), n=4 for $U{O_2}^{2+}$, $ZrO^{2+}$ n=8 for $Th^{4+}$ m=1,2,3 respectively, have been synthesized in template method from ethylenediamine/orthophenylene diamine, benzil monohydrazone and acetyl acetone and characterized on the basis of elemental analysis, thermal analysis, molar conductivity, magnetic moment, electronic, infrared, $^1H$-NMR studies. The results indicate that the VO(IV) ion is penta co-ordinated yielding paramagnetic complexes; $UO_2(VI)$, ZrO(IV) ions are hexa co-ordinated where as Th(IV) ion is octa co-ordinated yielding diamagnetic complexes of above composition. The fungi toxicity of the ZrO(IV) and VO(IV) complexes against some fungal pathogen has been studied.

The chemical behavior of the transition metal (Nb4+ and Mo4+) complexes with organoligand (dichloro-bis(η-cyclopentadienyl) has been investigated by the UV/vis-spectrophotometric, magnetic, and electrochemical method. The two or three energy absorption bands are observed by the spectra of these complexes. The magnitude of crystal field splitting energy, the spin pairing energy and bond strength was obtained from the spectra of the complexes. These are found to be delocalization, low-spin state, and strong bonding strength. The magnetic dipolemoment are found to be paramagnetic and diamagnetic complexes. The redox reaction processes of complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry in aprotic media. As a result the redox reaction proceses of Nb-C complex was couple-single reaction with diffusion and reaction current one electron process, and also Mo-C complex was couple-single reaction with reaction current of one electron process.

The chemical behaviour of the Eu(Ⅲ) complexes with organic ligands(tris[3-(trifluoromethylhydroxymethylene-camphorato)]) and tris[3-heptafluoropropylhydroxymethylene-camphorato)] has been investigated by the UV/vis-spectrophotometric, magnetic, and electrochemcial methods. The two or three energy absorption bands are observed by the spectra of these complexes. The magnitude of crystal field splitting energy, the spin pair energy and strength were obtained from the spectra of the complexes. These complexes are found to be delocalization, low-spin state, and strong bonding strenth of electron configuration. The magnetic dipolemoment are found to be diamagnetic. The redox reaction processes of complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry in aprotic solvent. The redox reaction processes of complexes are turned out to be single or double reaction with respect to one electron diffusion current.

This study used fowl sperm from three White Leghom rooster reared at our laboratory. Semen samples were exposed to the magnetic field strengths of from 650 to 5700 Gauss for one. two, or three days to investigate the influence of magnetic field on the orientation of fowl spermatozoa. Fowl spermatozoa were found to orient with their long axis of heads perpendicular to the magnetic field direction. The fowl spermatozoa were initially influenced when magnetic field intensities were from 650 to 5700 Gauss and the highest values (70.67, 72.49 and 71.79%) were found in the 5700 Gauss treatment at one, two, and three days exposure, respectively. Although percentages of the perpendicular oriented fowl spermatozoa increased along with the enhancement of the magnetic field intensity, the degree of orientation was only significantly higher in the treatments having the magnetic field strength from 1500 to 5700 Gauss than that in the control treatment at all exposure time. In addition, the experimental results also showed that the percentages of all orientational types of fowl spermatozoa (perpendicular category including upward perpendicular and downward perpendicular and parallel type consisting of leftward parallel and rightward parallel) in all treatments tended to be stable during exposure time. From the results of this study. it is suggested that (1) the diamagnetic anisotropy of the inside structural components of fowl spermatozoa induce them to orient perpendicular to the magnetic field direction, (2) the degree of orientation increased according to the enhancement of magnetic field strengths, (3) fowl spermatozoa had not an high sensitivity to the magnetic field, and the level of perpendicular orientation of fowl spermatozoa in this study is nearly similar to that of cattle sperm in the study of Suga et al. (2000).

The chemical behavior of the trivalent lanthanide$(Pr^{3+}, Eu^{3+}, Gd^{3+} 그리고 Yb^{3+})$complexes with organo-ligand (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione) has been investigated by the use of UV/Vis-spectrophotometric, magnetics, and electrochemical method. The two or three energy absorption bands are observed by the spectra of these complexes. The magnetitude of crystal field splitting energy, the spin pairing energy and bond stength was obtained from the spectra of the complexes. These are found to be localization, low-spin (or high-spin state, and strong bonding strength. The magnetic dipole moment are found to be diamagnetic complexes (or paramagnetic). The electrochemical behavior of complexes was observed by the use of cyclic voltammetry in aprotic media. These reduction peaks were irreversible two and three step reduction processes by electron transfer.

2-Ethylhexanoate compounds which contained Y, Er, Yb, Ba, and Cu were prepared separately. These metallo-organic compounds were dissolved together in the common solvent and the solution was homogeneous. From these solution, high $T_c$ superconductors $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}(Y_{123})$, $ErBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}(Er_{123})$, and $YbBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}(Yb_{123})$ were prepared. XRD analysis showed that these superconductors were not single phase and contained some impurity phases including $YBa_2Cu_4O_8(Y_{124})$. This was also confirmed from the magnetic susceptibility measurement. Generally, critical temperatures were higher than that of the superconductors prepared by ceramic method. Volume diamagnetic susceptibility showed little variation compared to the specimen made by ceramic method.

A new series of $dioxo-di-{\mu}-oxo-dimolybdate(V)(*image)$, has been prepared by the reaction of pyridinum oxoisothiocyanato-molybdate(V) with 1, 6-diaminohexane-N, N, N', N'-tetraacetic acid derivatives containing amine carboxyl groups. The properties and possible molecular structure of these complexes were discussed by elemental analysis, spectroscopic studies and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The infrared spectra of these complexes show two strong Mo=$O_t$ stretching modes in the $900-965cm^{-1}$, MoO$_2$Mo stretching bands at around 450∼500 and $740-765 cm^{-1}$ to symmetrical and asymmetrical O-bridge stretching, a coordinated $COO^-$ asymmetrical band in the $1600-1635 cm^{-1}$. The complexes synthesized were yellow or orange and diamagnetic.

A new series of $dioxo-di-\mu-oxo-dimolybdate(V)$, has been prepared by reaction of pyridinum oxoisothiocyantomolybdate (V) with iminodiacetic acid derivatives containing amine carboxyl groups. The properties and possible molecular structure of these complexes were discussed by elemental analysis, spectroscopic studies and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The infrared spectra of these complexes all show two strong $Mo=O_t$ stretching bands in the 900∼$980cm^{-1}$, $MoO_2Mo$ very prominent strectching bands at around 410~425 and 735~$750cm^{-1}$ to symmetrical and asymmetrical O-bridge stretching, a coordinated $coo^-$ asymmetrical band in the 1585∼$1,640cm^{-1}$. Also, d-d transition of molybdenyl complexes corresponding to $^2B_2{\to}^2B_1$ occured in the 24,800~$28,000cm^{-1}$ region, charge transfer transition corresponding to ligand-to-molybdenum in the 32,500~33,800, 42,000~$47,500cm^{-1}$ region.
