An electrochemical reduction on the 3-phenyl-4-nitrosydnone in acetonitrile solution has been studied by direct current, differential pulse polarography, cyclic voltammetry and controlled potential coulometry. Before the cleavage of phenyl-N single bond a irreversible electron transfer-chemical reaction(EC) mechanism of nitro functional group proceeded to form amino (or-hydroxylamino) group by multielectron transfer which is followed to give phenyl hydrazine by single electron transfer-chemical reaction at the 2nd and 3rd irreversible reduction wave of high negative potential region. The cathodic half-wave potentials shown to be shift negative due to inhibitory effect of cetyl-trimethyl ammonium bromide micelle while reversible anodic peaks on the 2nd and 3rd reduction waves in the presence of NaLS at high negative potential region.

Composition of volatile flavor components of chestnut flower sand honey were investigated by GC and GC-MS. A total of 64 components including 14 aromatic compounds, 13 hydrocarbons, 7 fatty acids, 4 terpenes, 12 oxygenated hydrocarbons, and 7 misellaneous compounds and a total 41 components including 7 aromatic compounds, 16 hydrocarbons, 12 fatty acids, 1 terpene, 2 oxygenated hydrocarbons, and 3 misellaneous compounds were identified from total volatile concentrates of chestnut flower and honey respectively. The main components of flower volatile were 2-phenyl ethyl alcohol, 1-phenyl ethyl alcohol and benzyl alcohol which comprise 49.02% of this volatiles The main components of flower volatile were 2-phenyl ethyl alcohol, 1-phenyl ethyl alcohol and benzyl alcohol which comprise 49.02% of this volatiles. Aromatic compounds such as 2-phenyl ethyl alcohol, benzyl alcohol, 1-phenyl ethyl alcohol, 1-(2-aminophenyl) ethanone act as major contributor to the characteristic honey-like flavor of chestnut honey.

We have evaluated the hydroxyl group-solvent specific interactions by using a Lichrosorb RP18 stationary phase and by measuring the retention data of carefully selected solutes in 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, 80/20, and 90/10(v/v%) methanol/water eluents at 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 ${^{\circ}C}$. The selected solutes are 3 positional isomers of phenylpropanol, that is, 1-phenyl-1-propanol, 1-phenyl-2-propanol, and 3-phenyl-1-propanol. There exist clear discrepancies in ${\Delta}H^o$ (solute transfer enthalpy from the mobile to the stationary phase) and $T{\Delta}S^o$ (solute transfer entropy) among positional isomers. The difference in ${\Delta}H^o$ and $T{\Delta}S^o$ between secondary alcohols (1-phenyl-1-propanol and 1-phenyl-2-propanol)is negligible compared to the difference between the primary alcohol (1-phenyl-3-propanol) and secondary alcohols. The $T{\Delta}S^o$ values of 3-phenyl-1-propanol are close to those of butylbenzene while the $T{\Delta}S^o$ values of secondary alcohols are close to those of propylbenzene. The difference in ${\Delta}{\Delta}H^o$ (specific solute-mobile phase interaction enthalpy) between the primary alcohol and the secondary alcohol decreases with increase of methanol content in the mobile phase. A unique observation is an extremum for 1-phenyl-3-propanol in the plot of $T{\Delta}{\Delta}S^o$ vs. methanol volume %. The positive sign of $T{\Delta}{\Delta}S^o$ of 3-phenyl-1-propanol implies that the entropy of 3-phenyl-1-propanol is greater than that of the hypothetical alkylbenzene (the same size and shape as phenylpropanol) in the mobile phase.

The electrochemical reduction of (2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-(2-phenyl-1H-quinolin-4-ylidene)-amine was investigated in 0.1 M tetrabutylammoniumbromide in N,N-dimethylformamide at glassy carbon electrode (GCE) using the technique of cyclic voltammetry at the room temperature (290 K). The reduction of imines occurs in two successive steps, involving one electron in each. In this medium the first peak was observed at about -0.793 V (vs Ag/$Ag^+$) at the glassy carbon electrode surface, which is more stable and well defined as compared to the second peak. The diffusion coefficient ($D_0$) of imine in the investigated solvent media has been calculated using the modified Randles-Sevcik equation. The electron transfer coefficient ($\alpha$) of the reactant species has also been calculated.

The relationships between three dimensional quantitative structure and activity relationships (3D-QSARs) for the selective fungicidal function between N-phenyl substituents of N-phenyl-O-phenyl-thionocarbamate derivatives analogues and their the fungicidal activities against resistant (RBC) and sensitive (SBC) gray mold (Botrytis cinerea) were studied quantitatively using CoMFA and CoMSIA methods. The statistical values of optimized CoMSIA (M7) model were better ($r^2$ & $q^2=CoMSIA{\gg}CoMFA$) than that of CoMFA (M5) model. And the factor influencing of the selective between the fungicidal activity against RBC and SBC was dependent on electrostatic field of CoMFA (M5) model. Therefore, it is predicted that, from the CoMSIA contour maps of CoMSIA (M7) model, the selectivity will be improved by the H-bond donor that is with negatively charged favored group at meta-position on the N-phenyl ring.

Enantioconvergent hydrolysis process for the preparation of chiral diol from racemic epoxides by using the recombinant Caulobacter crescentus epoxide hydrolase (CcEH) in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) was optimized. For the optimization, the effects of detergent, temperature and product inhibition on the enantiopurity and the yield of diol were investigated. (R)-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol with 92% enantiomeric excess and 56% yield from 20 mM racemic styrene oxide was obtained by using the recombinant CcEH at the optimal condition of $10^{\circ}C$ and the addition of 2% (w/v) Tween 80. At 50 mM racemic styrene oxide was used as a substrate, (R)-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol was obtained with 87% enantiomeric excess and 77% yield. Racemic phenyl-1,2-ethanediol, (R)-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol and (S)-phenyl-1,2-ethanediol dramatically inhibited the hydrolytic activity of the recombinant CcEH. These results suggested that another EH with the regioselectivity on ${\beta}$-position of (R)-enantiomer and without feedback inhibition by products would be needed as the partner EH of C. crescentus EH.

In order to investigate the stereochemical requirements of planar structure at 4-position of 4-phenyl-1-arylsulfonylimidazolidinones (1) for their cytoxicities against human cancer cell lines, the size, the distance from imidazolidinone ring, and the conformation of this moiety were variegated. Replacement of phenyl moiety with naphthyl in compounds 2 and 3 or benzyl moiety in compound 4 sharply reduced activity of 1. Conformational restriction on phenyl ring in compound 5 also resulted in the loss of activity of 1. Therefore, phenyl moiety without any substituents directly attached to imidazolidinone ring of 1 should be considered as an essential pharmacophore for this analog.

The kinetic studies on the reactions of phenyl N-phenyl phosphoramidochloridate (8) with substituted anilines ($XC_6H_4NH_2$) and deuterated anilines ($XC_6H_4ND_2$) have been carried out in acetonitrile at $60.0^{\circ}C$. The obtained deuterium kinetic isotope effects (DKIEs; $k_H/k_D$) are huge secondary inverse ($k_H/k_D$ = 0.52-0.69). A concerted mechanism is proposed with a backside attack transition state (TS) on the basis of the secondary inverse DKIEs and the variation trends of the $k_H/k_D$ values with X. The degree of bond formation in the TS is really extensive taking into account the very small values of the DKIEs. The steric effects of the two ligands on the rates are extensively discussed for the aminolyses of the chlorophosphate-type substrates on the basis of the Taft equation.
