The hydrolysis of $\alpha-benzoxystyrene(1)$ in strong acidic solution has been investigated kinetically. In perchloric acid concentration lower than 5.5 M($H_o$ < -3.0), hydration paramer $\omega$ = + 7.6, and $\Phi$ = + 0.54 were obtained. The solvent isotope effect $k_{H_2O}/K_{D_2O}$ is 0.72. The substituent effect was found to conform to the Hammett $\sigma^+$ constant with $\rho$ = -0.60. On the basis of these results and other evidence, the hydrolysis of the enol ester proceeds by $A_{AL}$2 type mechanism. In concentration greater than 5.5 M($H_o$ > -3.0), isotope effect, $k_{H_2O}/_{D_2O}$ is 3.32, substituent effect, $\rho$ is -1.60 and the rate is linear with the acidity function, $H_o$. Thus, the mechanism changes one involving initial, and rate-determining olefin protonation.

The solubilization constant (K_s) was determined by the UV-Vis method to investigate the interaction between organic matter (solubilized substance) and surfactant in solubilization. Solubilization constants and thermodynamic functions, according to the hydrophobic interaction between organic mater (4-alkylanilines with different alkyl substituent length) and cationic surfactants (DTAB, TTAB, and CTAB, having different hydrophobic lengths), were measured and calculated at various temperatures and compared with each other. As a result, the hydrophobic interactions between organic matters and cationic micelles increased with increasing the chain length of solute's substituent as well as surfactant's hydrophobe. However, the hydrophobic effect by the alkyl substituent of organic matter was greater than the hydrophobic effect by the surfactant. In addition, the results of the calculated thermodynamic functions showed that 4-alkylaniline was solubilized at the deep place in the micelle and its solubilization was greatly dependent on both the hydrophobic effects of organic matter and surfactant. At the calculated iso-structural temperature, the difference between the maximum and minimum values was less than 1K within the experimental conditions.

The copolymerization characteristics of a newly-synthesized catalyst, $rac-Me_2Si(2-p-tolylindenyl)_2ZrCl_2$, and its analogue, $rac-Me_2Si(Ind)_2ZrCl_2$, were examined in the ethylene/1-octene copolymerization while varying the concentration of 1-octene in the reaction mixture. The activity of $rac-Me_2Si(2-p-tolylindenyl)_2ZrCl_2$ catalyst was decreased with increase of comonomer concentration, which is different from the usual comonomer effect of the metallocene catalysts with a bridge structure. The contents of 1-octene in the copolymer from the catalyst with 2-p-tolyl substituent were higher than those from the catalyst without that substituent. The melting point, crystallinity, and molecular weight decreased with comonomer content which was more apparent for $rac-Me_2Si(2-p-tolylindenyl)_2ZrCl_2$ catalyst.

A kinetic study on nucleophilic substitution reactions of phenyl Y-substituted-phenyl carbonates (5a-5j) with ethylamine in 80 mol % $H_2O$/20 mol % DMSO at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$ is reported. The plots of $k_{obsd}$ vs. [amine] are linear for the reactions of substrates possessing a strong electron-withdrawing group (EWG) but curve upward for those of substrates bearing a weak EWG, indicating that the electronic nature of the substituent Y in the leaving group governs the reaction mechanism. The reactions have been concluded to proceed through a stepwise mechanism with one or two intermediates (a zwitterionic tetrahedral intermediate $T^{\pm}$ and its deprotonated form $T^-$) depending on the nature of the substituent Y. Analysis of Bronsted-type plots and dissection of $k_{obsd}$ into microscopic rate constants have revealed that the reactions of substrates possessing a strong EWG (e.g., 5a-5f) proceed through $T^{\pm}$ with its formation being the rate-determining step, while those of substrates bearing a weak EWG (e.g., 5g-5j) proceed through $T^{\pm}$ and $T^-$.

The kinetic of hydrolysis for cinnamylidene aniline derivatives has been investigated by ultraviolet spectrophotometry in 20% (v/v) dioxane - $H_2O$ at $25^{\circ}C$. A rate equation which can be applied over wide pH range was obtained. The substituent effects on cinnamylidene aniline derivatives were studied and the hydrolysis was facilitated by electron attracting group. Final products of the hydrolysis were cinnamaldehyde and aniline. From the rate equation, substituent effect and final products, the hydrolysis of cinnamylidene aniline derivatives was initiated by the neutral molecule of $H_2O$ which does not dissociate at below pH 9.0${\sim}$12.0, but proceeded by the hydrogen ion at above pH 5.0${\sim}$9.0.

Kinetic studies of the reactions of O,O-dimethyl Z-S-aryl phosphorothioates with X-benzylamines have been carried out in dimethyl sulfoxide at $85.0^{\circ}C$. The Hammett (log $k_2$ vs ${\sigma}_X$) and Br$\ddot{o}$nsted [log $k_2$ vs $pK_a$(X)] plots for substituent X variations in the nucleophiles are discrete with a break region between 4-Me and H, while the Hammett plots (log $k_2$ vs ${\sigma}_Z$) for substituent Z variations in the leaving groups are linear. The sign of the cross-interaction constant (${\rho}_{XZ}$) is positive for both the strongly and weakly basic nucleophiles. Greater magnitude of ${\rho}_{XZ}$ (= 2.54) value is observed with the weakly basic nucleophiles compared to with the strongly basic nucleophiles (${\rho}_{XZ}$ = 0.17). The deuterium kinetic isotope effects ($k_H/k_D$) involving deuterated benzylamines [$XC_6H_4CH_2ND_2$] are primary normal ($k_H/k_D$ > 1). The proposed mechanism is a stepwise with a rate-limiting leaving group expulsion from the intermediate involving a frontside nucleophilic attack with a hydrogen bonded, four-center-type transition state for both the strongly and weakly basic nucleophiles.

The rates for the reaction of substituted 2-phenylethyl tosylates with substituted pyridines were measured in acetonitrile and that of 2-PNS with substituted pyridines were investigated in both acetonitrile and methanol. The substitutent effect was accelerated by an electron-donating substituent on both substrate and nucleophile. Results showed that More O'Ferrall and quantum mechanical model of predicting transition state structure suggest the reaction proceeds via an $S_N2$ mechanism, in which bond-breaking is more advanced than bond-formation. Transition state variation predicted with the quantum mechanical model is consistent with the experimental results, whereas the predictions provided by the More O'Ferrall plots is found to be inconsistent in leaving group. In the reaction of 2-PNS, the rate constants in acetonitrile were larger than that in methanol.

The structural and dielectric properties of Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 ceramics substituted by Nd3+, La3+, K+ and Na+ were studied over 0~50 at.% substituent content. The 1 : 1 ordering behavior of Mg2+ and Nb5+ ions in the B site sublattice was observed in Nd3+-and La3+-modified compounds. The degree of ordering was increased with Nd3+, La3+ content in the compounds. But K+-or Na+-modified compounds did not exhibit the ordering behavior. This was explained by charge and size effect of A and B site cations and oxygen vacancies. As the mole fractions of substituent increased, the maximum values of dielectric constants were rapidly decreased and the phase transitions were broadened. Phase transition temperature was correlated with the covalency of A-O and B-O bonding.

The kinetics of the hydrolysis of N-benzylidenebenzenesulfonamide derivatives have been investigated by ultraviolet spectrophotometry in $H_2O$ at $25^{\circ}C$. A rate equation which can be applied over a wide pH range was obtained. The substituent effect on the hydrolysis of N-benzylidenebenzenesulfonamide derivatives were studied and rate of hydrolysis is known to be accelerated by electron withdrowing group. Final product of the hydrolysis was benzenesulfonamide and benzaldehyde. Base on the rate equation, substituent effect, general base effect and final products, hydrolysis of N-benzylidenebenzenesulfonamide derivatives seemed to be initiated by the hydronium ion at the pH 0.2${\sim}$2.5 and proceeded by the neutral $H_2O$ molecule at pH 3.0${\sim}$8.0 but proceeded by the hydroxide ion at above pH 8.5.

We wanted to elucidate the reason why the trityloxymethyl substituent in $\gamma$-trityloxymethyl-$\gamma$­butyrolactone takes a sterically unfavorable specific conformation, and so we synthesized 5-trityloxymethyldihydrofuran-3-one, 3-(trityloxymethyl)-4-butanolide and 2-trityloxymethyl- tetrahy­drofuran and we then analyzed their conformation by $^{1}H-NMR$ analysis.
