Kinetics for the nucleophiles have been studied under high vacuum and high pressures in various temperatures. Pseudo-first order rate constants, second order rate constants, thermodynamic parameters and Hammett ${\rho}$-values are determined. The values of ${\Delta}V^{\neq},\;{\Delta}{\beta}^{\neq}\;and\;{\Delta}S^{\neq}$are all negative. The Hammett r-values are negative for the nucleophile (${\rho}$x) over the pressure range studied. The results of kinetic studies for pressure and nucleophilet show that these reactions proceed in typical $S_N2$ reaction mechanism and change of mechanism.

In the present study, firstly, the variations of the geometric parameters induced by different substituents on boroxine skeleton (symmetrically H, $CH_3$, Cl, F, $NO_2$ substituted boroxines) are investigated by using B3LYP/6-31G(d,p), RHF/6-31G(d,p), and MP2/6-31G(d,p) levels of the theory. The second objective is to estimate the substituent effect on the molecular aromaticity of boroxine derivatives using energetic and NICS criteria. Moreover, the effects of different theoretical levels on NICS values have been investigated in a systematic approach. Lastly, a rotational analysis has been performed to investigate the effect of rotation around the B-Me and B-$NO_2$ bonds on total energy of the system. It has been found that electron withdrawing substituents contribute the aromaticity of boroxine affirmatively. Conversely, electron donors make the system less aromatic. Also, the theoretical vibrational spectra for these boroxine derivatives are presented and compared with the experimental data from the literature.

The kinetics of the addition of thiourea to cinnamenylisophorone derivatives(X : H, p-Br, $p-CH_3$ $m-CH_3$, $p-OCH_3$) was investigated using ultraviolet spectrophotometry in 20%(v/v) dioxane-$H_2O$ at $25^{\circ}C$. A rate equation which can be applied over wide pH range(pH $1.0{\sim}13.0$) was obtained. In order to investigate the substituent effects of cinnamenylisophorone derivatives. Hammett constant was plotted. As the result, the rate of uncleophilic addition of thiourea to cinnamenylisophorone derivatives was facilitated by electron donating group. It was found that addition of neutral thiourea which was not dissociated at the pH $1.0{\sim}9.0$ was proceeded, the reaction was proceeded by addition of dissociated anion of thiourea above the pH 10.0. On the basis of this kinetic study, the reaction mechanism of nucleophilic addition of thiourea was investigated.

Relative reactivity of various Al-substituted dialkylalans ($AlR_2(X)$) in reduction of acetone has been studied with density functional theory and MP2 method. Formation of the alan dimers and the alan-acetone adduct, and the transition state for the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley (MPV) type reduction of the adduct were calculated to figure out the energy profile. Formation of dimeric alans is highly exothermic. Both the relative free energies for acetone-alan adduct formation and the TS barriers for the MPV type reduction with respect to alan dimers and acetone were calculated and they show the same trend. Based on these energetic data, relative reactivity of alans is expected to be; $AlR_2(Cl)$ > $AlR_2(OTf)$ > $AlR_2(O_2CCF_3)$ > $AlR_2(F)$ > $AlR_2(OMs)$ > $AlR_2(OAc)$ > $AlR_2(OMe)$ > $AlR_2(NMe_2)$. The energy profile is relatively well correlated with the experimental order of the reactivity of Al-substituted dialkylalans. It is noted that the substituents of alans have initial effects on the relative free energies for the carbonyl-adduct formation. Therefore, an $AlR_2(X)$ which forms a more stable carbonyl-adduct is more reactive in carbonyl reduction.

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.

Hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) is mainly produced along with methane and hydrocarbons in many gas fields as well as hydrodesulfurization processes of crude oils containing sulfur compounds and the emission of $H_2S$ has a considerable effect on both environmental problem and human health aspects due to formation of, e.g. acid rain and smog. In recent years, ionic liquids (ILs) have been proposed as the most promising solvents for $CO_2$ and hazardous pollutants capture, such as $H_2S$ and sulfur dioxide ($SO_2$). In this work, we demonstrate the use of the predictive COSMO-SAC model for the prediction of Henry's law constant of $H_2S$ in ILs. Furthermore, the method is used to screen for potential IL candidates for $H_2S$ capture from a set of 2,624 ILs formed from 82 cations and 32 anions. The effects of cation on the Henry's law constant of $H_2S$ such as (i) the variation of the alkyl chain length on cation, (ii) the substituent of methyl group ($-CH_3$) for H in C(2) position and (iii) the change of ring structure for cation family are clearly predicted by COSMO-SAC model.

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 reaction between 1-benzyl-3-carbamoyl-1,4-dihydropyridine (BNAH) 1 and various 1-arylpyridinium salts 2, and the reaction between 1-(4-methylphenyl)-1,4-dihydropyridine 4b and 1-aryl-3-carbamoylpyridinium (1-arylnicotinamide) salts 5 were carried out. The extents of reaction in equilibrium were estimated by nmr integration data. The equilibrium constants for the reactions, K, and the standard Gibbs free energy changes for the reduction of the pyridinium salts to the corresponding 1,4-dihydropyridines ${\Delta}G^{\circ}'$ were evaluated. The Hammett plot of log K for the reaction between 1 and 2, and ${\Delta}G^{\circ}'$ against ${\sigma}_p$ of the substituents in 1-aryl moiety shows linear correlation with the reaction constant ${\rho}$ of 9.4 (for log K vs ${\sigma}_p$) and -54.5 KJ/mole (for ${\Delta}G^{\circ}'$ vs ${\sigma}_p$). It was found that 1-aryl-1,4-dihydropyridines have much higher reducing power than the corresponding 1-aryl-1,4-dihydronicotinamides, and the power is affected greatly by the electron-withdrawing ability of the substituents in aryl group. The reactions were utilized for preparation of 1,4-dihydropyridines bearing highly electron-withdrawing groups such as 4-nitrophenyl and 2,4-dinitrophenyl, which could not be obtained by conventional dithionite reduction of the corresponding pyridinium salts due to the base-labile nature of the salts.
