A set of substituent constants, σc+, has been widely used comparing the stability of carbocation in super acid condition. Plotting of 13C chemical shifts of cationic carbon (Δδc+) against σc+ constants yields an excellent correlation with a good correlation coefficient (r=0.999) for a cyclopentyl cation system. But these σc+ constants show poor linearity in norbornenyl cations that well known to show homoallylic stabilization in a cationic condition. We calculated the new substituent constant, σc+π, and found that the new substituent constants give an excellent correlation in π- and πσ-participating cation systems.

Substituent effects on the fluorescence of 2-(substituted anilino) nicotinic acids and their aluminum chelate compounds were examined, and satisfactory linear relationships between Hammett substituent constant, ${\sigma}$, and the lowest excited singlet energy levels were obtained. Effects of solvent on the native and aluminum chelate compounds were also investigated.

The new substituent constants $({\sigma}^{\ast})$ are calculated from the acidity constants $(pK^{\ast})$ of phenol derivatives in the excited state ($^1L_b$). These substituent constant are applied to the Hammett equations and found good correlation with $pK^{\ast}$ of 2,6-di-tert-butyl phenol, benzamide, nitroaniline, thiophenol, azobenzene, and benzoic acid derivatives. The correlation was much better than that of ground state substituent constants such as ${\sigma},\;{\sigma}^+$, and ${\sigma}^-$. From these results, the new substituent constants $({\sigma}^{\ast})$are proposed to be used for the linear free energy relationship in the $^1({\pi},{\pi}^{\ast})$ excited states of phenyl compounds.

The nucleophilic substitution reactions of bis(Y-aryl) chlorophosphates (1) with substituted anilines and deuterated anilines are investigated kinetically in acetonitrile at 35.0 $^{\circ}C$. The kinetic results of 1 are compared with those of Y-aryl phenyl chlorophosphates (2). The substrate 1 has one more identical substituent Y compared to substrate 2. The cross-interaction between Y and Y, due to additional substituent Y, is significant enough to result in the change of the sign of cross-interaction constant (CIC) from negative ${\rho}_{XY}$ = -1.31 (2) to positive ${\rho}_{XY}$ = +1.91 (1), indicating the change of reaction mechanism from a concerted $S_N2$ (2) to a stepwise mechanism with a rate-limiting leaving group departure from the intermediate (1). The deuterium kinetic isotope effects (DKIEs) involving deuterated anilines ($XC_6H_4ND_2$) show secondary inverse, $k_H/k_D$ = 0.61-0.87. The DKIEs invariably increase as substituent X changes from electron-donating to electron-withdrawing, while invariably decrease as substituent Y changes from electron-donating to electron-withdrawing. A stepwise mechanism with a rate-limiting bond breaking involving a predominant backside attack is proposed on the basis of positive sign of ${\rho}_{XY}$ and secondary inverse DKIEs.

The substituent effects on the pyridinolysis (XC5H4N) of Y-aryl ethyl chlorophosphates are investigated in acetonitrile at $35.0^{\circ}C$. The two strong ${\pi}$-acceptor substituents, X = 4-Ac and 4-CN in the X-pyridines, exhibit large positive deviations from the Hammett plots but little positive deviations from the Br$\ddot{o}$nsted plots. The substituent Y effects on the rates are really significant and the Hammett plots for substituent Y variations in the substrates invariably change from biphasic concave downwards via isokinetic at X = H to biphasic concave upwards with a break point at Y = 3-Me as the pyridine becomes less basic. These are interpreted to indicate a mechanistic change at the break point from a stepwise mechanism with a rate-limiting bond formation (${\rho}_{XY}$ = -6.26) for Y = (4-MeO, 4-Me, 3-Me) to with a rate-limiting leaving group expulsion from the intermediate (${\rho}_{XY}$ = +5.47) for Y = (4-Me, H, 3-MeO). The exceptionally large magnitudes of ${\rho}_{XY}$ values imply frontside nucleophilic attack transition state.

A series of the para-substituted 7-aryl-norbornadienyl cation (3) was prepared in FSO3H/SO2ClF solution at -100℃ and their 13C NMR shifts were measured at -80℃. The plots of the chemical shifts (changes in chemical shifts) of cationic carbon, ΔδC+, aganist our calculated new substituent constant, σc+s, gave an excellent correlation (r=0.994), with a ρc+ value of 12.63. These results indicate that the new substituent constants, σc+s, can be successfully employed to compare the relative charge demand of the carbonium ion by π-and πσ-participation.

The nucleophilic substitution reactions of bis(Y-aryl) chlorothiophosphates (1) with X-pyridines are investigated kinetically in acetonitrile at $35.0^{\circ}C$. The free energy relationships with both X and Y are biphasic concave upwards with a break point at X = 3-Ph and Y = H, respectively. The sign of cross-interaction constants (CICs; ${\rho}_{XY}$) is positive with all X and Y. Proposed mechanism is a stepwise process with a rate-limiting leaving group departure from the intermediate with all X and Y. The kinetic results of 1 are compared with those of Y-aryl phenyl chlorothiophosphates (2). In the case of Y = electron-withdrawing groups, the cross-interaction between Y and Y, due to additional substituent Y, is significant enough to change the sign of ${\rho}_{XY}$ from negative with 2 to positive with 1, indicative of the change of mechanism from a rate-limiting bond formation to bond breaking.

Substituent effect of the leaving groups of the reaction of benzyl arenesulfonate with dimethylanilines in acetone at $35^{\circ}C$ was obtained with the following results. 1. Substituent effect of the leaving groups was not variable when changed from pyridine to N,N-dimethylaniline in nucleophile 2.In acetone, the Hammett ${\sigma}$ constant of p-MeO of the leaving group was -0.35. 3. The weaker the nucleophilicity in dimethylaniline, the stronger the movement of electron from N to C, and the cleavage of the C${\ldots}$0 bond in transition state proceeds.

The reactions of bis(Y-aryl) chlorothiophosphates (1) with substituted anilines and deuterated anilines are investigated kinetically in acetonitrile at $55.0^{\circ}C$. The Hammett plots for substituent Y variations in the substrates show biphasic concave upwards with a break point at Y = H. The cross-interaction constants (${\rho}_{XY}$) are positive for both electron-donating and electron-withdrawing Y substituents. The kinetic results of 1 are compared with those of Y-aryl phenyl chlorothiophosphates (2). The cross-interaction between Y and Y, due to additional substituent Y, is significant enough to result in the change of the sign of ${\rho}_{XY}$ from negative with 2 to positive with 1. The effect of the cross-interaction between Y and Y on the rate changes from negative role with electron-donating Y substituents to positive role with electron-withdrawing Y substituents, resulting in biphasic concave upward free energy correlation with Y. A stepwise mechanism with a rate-limiting leaving group departure from the intermediate involving a predominant frontside attack hydrogen bonded, four-center-type transition state is proposed based on the positive sign of ${\rho}_{XY}$ and primary normal deuterium kinetic isotope effects.

Series of new chiral N-substituted benzotriazol-1-yl derivatives were synthesized and their fungicidal activities in vitro against gray mold(Botrytis cinerea), black spot(Alternaria kikuchiana) and phytophthora blight(Phytophthora capsici) were measured by the agar medium dilution method. The substituents effects between the fungicidal activities (obs. $pI_{50}$) and a various physicochemical parameters of phenoxy or thiophenoxy group(X) & alkyl or phenyl group(Y) were analyzed by the multiple regression technique. From the analyzed substituent effects, the structure-activity relationship(SAR) equations shows that the antifungal activities depend on the parameters for the optimal molecular hydrophobicity($({\Sigma}logP)_{opt}$), Van der Waals (${\Sigma}Vw$>0) volume(${\AA}^3$) and inductive constant with electron withdrawing group(${\sigma}_I$,Y>0). The activity in affected by the inductive effect (${\sigma}_I$,Y>${\sigma}_g$X) of Y-group rather than the X-group. The phenoxy substituents, 1, showed higher antifungal activity tn the thiophenoxy substituents, 2. For 1, polar substituent constant(${\sigma}^*$) was an important factor in determining the activity. And the tribromomethyl substituent, 1g showed the highest activity against the tee fungi.
