The structure-antifungal activity correlations between the structure of fourteen new 1-(phenoxymethyl)benzotriazoles (I) (Y=0), 1-(thiophenoxymethyl)benzotriazoles (ll) (Y=S) and 1-(azidomethyl)benzotriazole (III) derivatives were synthesized, and their activity, fifty percent inhibition of mycelial growth($pI_{50}$), in vitro against Pyricularia oryzae, Fusarium axysporum f.sp sesami, Valsa ceratosperma and Botrytis cinerea were investigated using a generalized QSAR method. The activity of (I) was superior In those of (II) and (III). The effect of the substituents (X) on the phenoxy group (I) was rationalized by a parabolic function of electronic (${\sigma}$), steric ($B_1$) and hydrophobic parameter(${\pi}$), and hydrogen bonding (HB). Where the optimal values of substituent on the fungicidal activity againt P. oryzae and F. axysporum f.sp.sesami are $B_1=1.40A;(H)$ and ${\pi}=0.07{\sim}0.15;(H)$, and those of substituent on the fungicidal activity against V. ceratosperma and B. cinerea are ${\sigma}=0.23{\sim}0.28;\;(C1),\;{\pi}=0.70;$ (C1), respectively. The most effective compound ( I a) and ( I d) were examined in this study.

The general equation for the substituent effect test, which was derived in the previous paper, has been extended to correlate thermodynamic parameters of solvolysis reaction by modifying the potential energy term to represent the effect of changes in solvent composition. The linear fits of the new equation, $\Delta{\Delta}H^\neq=a'Y+b\Delta{\Delta}S^\neq$, were tested with 35 examples from literature and average correlation coefficient of 0.977 was obtained. Examination of results showed that the equation is generally applicable to solvolysis reaction and helps elucidate some the difficulties experienced with the Grunwald-Winsteln equation. It has been stressed that the linear enthalpy-entropy effect exists only between the external enthalpy and entropy of activation, and therefore strictly it is the linear external enthalpy-entropy effect.

Rate Constants of hydrolysis of N-(benzenesulfonyl)-C-(N-methylanilino)imidoyl chlorides were determined by UV spectrophotometry in 50% (v/v) aqueous methanol at 25$^{\circ}C.$ On the basis of rate equation, substituent effect, solvent effect, salt effect, thermodynamic parameters and hydrolysis product analysis, it may be concluded that the hydrolysis of N-(benzenesulfonyl)-C-(N-methylanilino)imidoyl chlorides proceed through $S_N1$ mechanism via azocarbonium ion intermediate below pH 9.0, while aebove pH 10.0 the hydrolysis proceeds through nucleophilic addition-elimination ($Ad_{N-E}$) mechanism.

In the present study, we carried out comparative research on the anthraquinones Raman spectrum and on the anthraquinones derivative 1,4-diamino-anthraquinone focusing on change in its intermediate in terms of pH and change in the substituent. WE use the SERS method and employ a silver sol prepared by Creighton et al.'s method. From the analysis of the UV spectrum of the mixture solution of 1,4-diamino-anthraquinone and silver sol, we could see that the 1,4-diamino-anthraquinone physically adsorbs silver sol. In terms of the adsorbing orientation, the adsorption of the nitrogen atom in the amino group is perpendicular to the surface of silver sol according to the surface selection rule. From the structure of the 1,4-diamino-anthraquinone intermediate according to the change of pH, we could see that the C=O bond is strengthened in the acidic state and weakened in the neutral and the alkaline state because of the resonance effect of the amines.

Rate constants of hydrolysis of N-(benzoyl)-C-(N-methylanilino)imidoylchlorides were determined by UV spectrophotometry in 50% (v/v) aqueous methanol at 25$^{\circ}C$. On the basis of rate equation, substituent effect, solvent effect, salt effect, thermodynamic parameters and hydrolysis product analysis, it may be concluded that the hydrolysis of N-(benzoyl)-C-(N-methylanilino)imidoylchlorides proceed through $S_N$1 mechanism via azocarbonium ion intermediate in the range of from pH 3.0 to pH 10.0, while above pH 10.0 and below pH 3.0 the hydrolysis proceeds through nucleophilic addition-elimination (A$d_{N-E}$) mechanism.

The rate constants for the hydrolysis of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)benzhydrazonyl bromide and its derivatives were determined by ultraviolet visible spectrophotometry at 20$^{\circ}C$ and a rate equation which could be applied over a wide pH range was obtained. On the basis of rate equations derived and judging from the solvent effect, substituent effect, salt effect, thermodynamic parameter, plausible mechanisms of hydrolysis have been proposed. It may be concluded that the hydrolysis through SN1 mechanism via carbonium ion intermdiate to pH 3.0, and pH 10.0, the hydrolysis proceeds through 1,3-dipolar or SN2 mechanism.

Solvolysis rates of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-l-phenyl-2,2,2-trifiuoroethyl chloride (1) and 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenylethyl chloride (2) were measured in a variety of aqueous binary solvents, and the solvent effect was treated with the Grunwald-Winstein equation. The solvent effect on the solvolysis of 1 failed to give a single linear correlations using the ordinary Y or YCl, but exhibited the wide split pattern which could not be related to the solvent nucleophilicity. The improved correlations with YBnCl and extended dual-parameter treatment, log (k/k0)=mYCl+hI (mΔYΔ), were observed for the solvolysis of 1. These results suggest that the incipient cationic charge in the solvolysis of 1 is delocalized strongly into the aryl-rings in the transition state. While the solvent effect on the solvolysis of 2 is better correlated with Y or YCl than YBnCl but the linearity is not satisfactory. The correlation is comparably improved by the use of the extended Grunwald-Winstein equation, log (k/k0)=0.81YCl+0.26NOTs (R=0.994, SD=±0.12), indicating the cationic charge of reaction center of 2 was localized mostly in the transition state.

Rate constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the nucleophilic substitution reactions of aryl substituted benzenesulfonates (3) with alkali metal ethoxides ($EtO^-M^+$) and butane-2,3-dione monoximates ($Ox^-M^+$) in ethanol at $25^{\circ}C$. The reactivity of the alkali metal ethoxides decreases in the order $EtO^-K^+> EtO^- > EtO^-Li^+$, indicating that $K^+$ ion behaves as a catalyst and $Li^+$ ion acts as an inhibitor for all the substrates studied. For the corresponding reactions of 3 with Ox^-M^+$, $Li^+$ ion also exhibits inhibitory effect for all the substrates, while, $K^+$ ion shows catalytic or inhibitory effects depending on the nature of substituents on the acyl and phenyl moieties. A study of substituent effect on rate has revealed that both EtO^- $and Ox^-$ systems have the same reaction mechanism. The different behavior shown by $K^+$ ion for the reaction of 3 with $EtO^-$ and $Ox^-$ would be attributed to a difference in charge polarization of S=O bond in the transition state between the two systems and/or a change in conformation of Ox^-K^+$.

The influence of the 2-(4-(6-chloro-2-benzoxazolyloxy)phenoxy)-N-phenyl- propionamide derivatives on the herbicide activities against rice plant with pre-emergence and post-emergence in down land were examined and the structure activity relationship (SAR) were analyzed by Free-Wilson and Hansch method. In pre-emergence, the SAR approach is shown that the optimal, $({\pi})_{opt}=0.91$, hydrophobicity with electron donating effect of the ortho substituted mono substituents and 2,3,4-substituted three substituents were found to be contribute the herbicidal activity. Whereas, in post-emergence, the optimal, ({\pi})_{opt}=0.50$, hydrophobicity with electron withdrawing effect of meta substituted mono subsituents and 2,3-substituted two substituents were found to be contribute the herbicide activity. The herbicide activities with post-emergence more increase than that of pre-emergence. It is assumed from the SAR equations that the 2-methyl-3-methoxy-4-cyano group substituent is selected as the most lowest herbicide activity against rice plant with post-emergence in green house. The hydrolysis reaction was proceeded through nucleophilic addition-elimination (Ad_{Nu-E})$ with the orbital control between LUMO of substrate and HOMO of water molecule. And molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) of none (H) substituent was discussed.

For the evaluation of the role of substituents of ar-turmerone for its anticancer activity, ar-turmerone (1a) and its analogs like 2-methyl-6-(4'-methyphenyl)-2-octen-4-one (1b), 2-methyl-6-phenyl-2-hepten-4-one (1c), 2-methyl-6-phenyl-2-octen-4-one (1d) and 2 methyl-6-(trans-4'-methylcyclohexyl)-2-hepten-4-one (1e) were preparedd and their cytotoxic activities against $L_{1210}$ cell were determined. Omission of methyl group at para-position dose not variate the cytotoxicity of ar-turmerone. Elongation of alkyl group at 6-position decreases $ED_{50}$ value. Saturation of aromatic ring of ar-turmerone markedly decreases the cytotoxicity. Therefore the smaller size of alkyl group at 6-position and aromatic ring of ar-turmerone should be essential for exhibiting its anticancer activity.
