(Allyloxy)methyl-Crown Ethers have been used as metal cation carriers in a bulk liquid membrane system. Competitive transports by the AMDT18C6 and the AM18C6 are selective for Pd(Ⅱ) ion and Pb(Ⅱ) ion over other transition metal cations respectively. Studies of complexations of (Allyloxy)methyl-Crown Ethers with metal cations have been carried out by titration calorimetry and potentiometry.

Geranyl phenyl ethers 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, 5-fluorouracil 6 and adriamycin 7 as references were tested for their growth inhibitory effects against tumor cell lines and NIH 3T3 fibroblasts using two different assays, 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and sulforhodamine B protein (SRB) assays. These results suggest that methyl-4-[{(2E)-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienyl}oxy]-3-methoxy benzoate 1 showed growth inhibition activity against tumor cell lines. The maximum activity exhibited by methyl-4-[{(2E)-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienyl}oxy]-3-hydroxybenzoate 3 against Staphylococcus epidermidis (MIC, $1,000{\mu}g/ml$).

The stability constants for the diaza-18-crown-6 ethers 2-6 and alkali metal cations ($Na^+,\;K^+,\;Rb^+\;and\;Cs^+$) were determined using potentiometry in 95% methanol. For each metal ion the stability constants of the partiallyfluorinated ligands 3-6 were larger than that of the non-fluorinated ligand 2, which might reflect an interaction between fluorine atoms and alkali metal cations. The stability constant of the ligand 4 was larger than that of the ligand 5 for each metal cation tested. This finding was also supported by the results of cation-induced chemical shifts in $^1H-,\;^{19}F$-NMR and extraction experiment. The potentiometry and NMR results as well as the X-ray crystal structures revealed that the position and number of fluorine atoms in the benzyl side arms was crucial for the enhanced interaction between a ligand and an alkali metal.

In transportation the amount of metal ion by crown ethers, dibenzo-18-crown-6 were investigated using ultraviolet spectrometer. Transported the amount of one valence metal ion as $K^+ and Li^+}$ was not so much. On the other hand, two valence metal ion increased by dibenzo-18-crown-6, which means that the ionic charge and hydration of two valence metal ion affected the carrying ability of crown ethers. The carrying ability of dibenzo-18-crown-6 was, therefore, adequate for two valence metal ion as $Ca^{2+}$ and $Ba^{2+}$. It was also suggested that transport metal ion by crown ethers, which is related rather the catching ability than the selectivity of metalion.

A short and efficient synthesis, solvent extraction and potentiometric measurements of new thiazole-containing naphtho-crown ethers are reported. The naphthalene moiety enhances the ammonium ion selectivity over potassium ion. The selectivity of ${NH_4}^+/K^+$ follows the trend $3\;{\approx}\;2\;>\;1$, indicating that the differences in conformational changes of 2 and 3 in forming ammonium complexes affect little on the resulting ammonium/potassium extraction selectivity ratio. The ammonium ion-selective electrodes were prepared with noctylphenyl ether plasticized poly(vinyl chloride) membranes containing 1-4 the effect of one naphthalene unit introduced on either right (2) or left (3) side of thiazolo-crown ether on their potentiometric properties (e.g., ammonium ion selectivity over other cations, response slopes, and detection limits) were not apparent. However, the ammonium ion selectivity of 1, 2 and 3 over other alkali metal and alkaline earth metal cations is 10-100 times higher than that of nonactin.

Oxime ethers of ${\beta}$-oxo-${\gamma}$-phenylbutanoic acids were prepared to develop more effective PPAR ${\alpha}$ and ${\gamma}$ dual agonists. Among them, compound 11k exhibited potent $in$ $vitro$ activities with $EC_{50}$ of 2.5 nM and 3.3 nM in PPAR ${\alpha}$ and ${\gamma}$, respectively. It showed better glucose lowering effects than rosiglitazone 1 and improved the lipid profile like plasma triglyceride in db/db mice model.

Polymer-supported crown ethers (Ps-CE) which can be used for phase-transfer catalyst (PTC) were synthesized for the purpose of allowing reusable function to ordinary crown ethers, and the kinetics of the liquid-solid-liquid triphase-catalyzed nucleophilic displacement reaction of iodide (aqueous phase) on 1-bromooctane (organic phase) using synthesized Ps-CE (solid) were studied. Ps-CE were obtained by grafting of hydroxymethyl crown ethers to 1~2% cross-linked chloromethylated polystyrene. All reactions followed a pseudo-first order dependency on the 1-bromooctane concentration and the observed rate constants $(k_{obsd})$ were linearly related to the molar equivalents of Ps-CE, and were subjected to the influence of cross-linking density of polymer backbone, solvent and the reaction temperature. The catalytic activity of Ps-CE was also compared with that of structurally similar soluble crown ethers, and used Ps-CE were easily recovered after the reaction by simple filtration and could be reused without loss of catalytic activity in the same anionic displacement reaction. Enthalpies and entropies of activation associated with the displacement were 10~20kcal $mol^{-1}, 20~55eu. respectively, and the free energy of activation was ~30kcal mol^{-1}$.
