The recognition of neutral aromatic substrates by different neutral calix[4]arene receptors 1, 2, and 3 was studied by NMR spectroscopy. The stoichiometry is 1:1 in all cases as was confirmed by jobs plot. Owing to the deep cavity, 1 affords stronger binding abilities for substrate 4 and 5, while all receptors remained inert for substrates 6 and 7. The binding constants determined by $^1H$ NMR titration show that the recognition of substrate 4 by 1 gives strongest complexation ($K_a\;of\;9.8\;{\times}\;102\;M^{-1}$).

The efficient synthesis of four mesitylene-based receptors 1-4 and their potentiometric response characteristics to alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, and transition metal ions, under various pH conditions are outlined. Receptor 1-based electrode exhibited more sensitive response to Ag+ ion (49 mV/decade of range from 10-6 to 10-2 M) than the 2-based electrode (47 mV/decade of range from 3 ´ 10-5 to 10-2 M), while the 3- and 4-based ones revealed sub-Nernstian below 40 mV/pAg+. All electrodes showed substantial responses to Ag+ ion under acidic condition, but there was almost nil-response to other transition metal ions (Fe2+, Co2+, Zn2+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Cu2+ and Hg2+). The association constant of receptor 1 toward Ag+ ion, measured by 1H NMR titration, showed the largest value (200 M-1) among the tested receptors. The results were interpreted with semi empirically-modeled structures.

Hippuryl-L-histidyl-L-leucine(HHL) is widely used as a substrate of angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) cleaving the neurotransmitter angiotensin(I) to the octapeptide angiotensin(II). The structure of the substrate molecules should provide information regarding the geometric requirements of the ACE active site. For the purpose of determination of in vivo reaction, metallo(Cu, Zn)-HHL complexes were synthesized and the degree of complex formation were identified by MALDITOF, ESI mass spectrometric analysis. Tn addition, the pH-dependent species distribution curves were obtained by potentiometric titration. Nitrogen atoms of imidazole ring and oxygen atom of caboxylate groups in the peptide chain were observed to be participated in the metal complex formation. After purification of complexes further structural characterization were made by utilizing UV-Vis, electrochemical methods and NMR. Complete NMR signal assignments were carried out by using 2D-spectrum techniques COSY, TOCSY, NOESY, HETCOR. A complex that two imidazole and carboxylate groups are asymmetrically participating to coordination mode was predicted to the solution-state structure of $Cu(II)-HHL_2$ based on $^{13}C-NMR$ signal assignment and NOE information.

Anion receptor 1 based on acylhydrazone has been designed and synthesized. UV-vis and $^1H$ NMR titration showed that receptor 1 is selective receptor for dihydrogen phosphate ($H_2PO_4{^-}$). Dihydrogen phosphate was complexed by the receptor 1 via at least 4 hydrogen bonding interactions, contributing from two amide N-Hs and two imine C-Hs. In addition, nitrogen in the aromatic ring could make 2 additional hydrogen bondings with OH groups in the dihydrogen phosphate. However, the receptor 1 could make only 4 hydrogen bonds with halides. Therefore, receptor 1 could bind anions through hydrogen bonds with a selectivity in the order of $H_2PO_4{^-}$ > $Br^-$ > $Cl^-$ in highly polar solvent such as DMSO.

${\beta}$-CD and CM- ${\beta}$-CD as chiral NMR shift agents were used to resolve the enantiomers of noradrenaline (NA). The stoichiometry of each complex formed between the CDs and the enantiomers of NA was found to be 1 : 1 through the continuous variation plots. The binding constants (K) of the complexes were determined from $^1H$ NMR titration curves. This result indicated that both ${\beta}$-CD and CM- ${\beta}$-CD formed the complexes with the S(+)-NA more preferentially than its R(-)-enantiomer. The K values for the complexes with ${\beta}$-CD ($K_{S(+)}$ = 537 $M^{-1}$ and $K_{R(-)}$ = 516 $M^{-1}$ was larger than those with CM- ${\beta}$-CD ($K_{S(+)}$ = 435 $M^{-1}$ and $K_{R(-)}$ = 313 $M^{-1}$), however, enantioselectivity (${\alpha}$) of S(+)- and R(-)-NA to CM- ${\beta}$-CD ( ${\alpha}$ = 1.38) was larger than that to ${\beta}$-CD ( ${\alpha}$ = 1.04), indicating that CM- ${\beta}$-CD was the better chiral NMR solvating agents for the recognition of the enantiomers of NA. Two dimensional rotating frame nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (ROESY) experiments were also performed to explain the binding properties in terms of spatial fitting of the NA molecule into the macrocyclic cavities.

The following new cryptand 221 complexes of lanthanides(Ⅲ) and dioxouranium(Ⅵ) nitrate have been synthesized: $(Ln(C_{16}H_{32}N_2O_5)(H_2O)_2(NO_3)_3\ and \((UO_2)_2(C_{16}H_{32}N_2O_5)(H_2O)_4(NO_3)_4$. These complexes have been identified by elemental analysis, moisture titration, conductivity measurements and various spectroscopic techniques. The proton and carbon-13 NMR as well as calorimetric measurements were used to study the interaction of cryptand 221 with La(Ⅲ), Pr(Ⅲ ), Ho(Ⅲ) and $UO_2(Ⅱ)$ ions in nonaqueous solvents. The bands of metal-oxygen atoms, metal-nitrogen atoms and O-U-O in the IR spectra shift upon complexation to lower frequencies, and the vibrational spectra ({\delta}NMN$) of metal-amide complexes in the crystalline state exhibit lattice vibrations below 300 $cm^{-1}$. The NMR spectra of the lanthanides(Ⅲ) and dioxouranium(Ⅵ) nitrate complexes in nonaqueous solvents are quite different, indicating that the ligand exists in different conformation, and also the $^1H$ and $^{13}C-NMR$ studies indicated that the nitrogen atom of the ring has greater affinity to metal ions than does the oxygen atom, and the planalities of the ring are lost by complexation with metal ions. Calorimetric measurements show that cryptand 221 forms more stable complexes with $La^{3+}$ and $Pr^{3+}$ ions than with $UO^{22+}$ ion, and $La^{3+}/Pr^{3+}$ and $UO^{22+}/Pr^{3+}$ selectivity depends on the solvents. These changes on the stabilities are dependent on the basicity of the ligand and the size of the metal ions. The absorption band (230-260 nm) of the complex which arises from the direct interaction of macrocyclic donor atoms with the metal ion is due to n-{\delta}*$ transition and also that (640-675 nm) of $UO^{22+}$-cryptand 221 complex, which arises from interaction between two-dioxouranium(Ⅵ) ions in being out of cavity of the ligand ring is due to d-d* transition.

유전자 치료에 있어서 안전성의 장점을 지니고 있는 비바이러스성 전달체에 대한 관심도가 높아져가고 있다. 비바이러스성 전달체 중, 양이온성 리포좀이나 합성 유전자 전달체는 in vitro계에서 효율적인 DNA 전달체이지만, 낮은 생체적합성으로 인하여 in vivo 계에서의 응용성은 크게 뒤떨어지고 있다. 한편, 천연 양이온성 다당류인 키토산은 낮은 독성과 강한 양전하를 띠고 있어 유전자 전달 시스템 (gene delivery system)에 있어 아주 기대되는 전달체이다. 본 연구에서는 저분자량 수용성 키토산 (low molecular water-soluble chitosan ; LMWSC)을 이용하여 동맥 벽 세포를 표적할 수 있는 표적성 유전자 전달체를 합성하였다. 상대 점도와 Kina 적정법을 이용하여 LMWSC의 점도 평균 분자량 $(M_W)$과 탈아세틸화도 (degree of de acetylation ; DDA)를 측정하였고 구조는 FTIR, $^1H-NMR$, 그리고 $^{13}C-NMR$을 통하여 분석하였다. 동맥 벽을 표적하기 위한 유전자 전달체로서 pegylated LMWSC 의 말단에 특이성 세포 표적 펩타이드인 artery wall binding peptide (AWBP)를 결합시킴으로써 AWBP-PEG-g-LMWSC을 합성하였고 FTIR, $^1H-NMR$. zeta potentiometer. 그리고 atomic force microscopy (AFM)을 이용하여 분석하였다.

The main objective of this study was to modulate pH-sensitive polymers (poly($\beta-amino esters$)) by controlling their molecular weight during their synthesis. These pH-sensitive and biodegradable polymers were synthesized by Michael-type step polymerization. 1,4-Butane diol diacrylate was used as the unsaturated carbonyl compound and piperazine as the nucleophilic compound. Various molecular weight polymers were obtained by varying the mol ratio of piperazine/1,4-butane diol diacrylate. The synthesized polymers were characterized by $^{1}H-NMR$ and their molecular weights were measured by gel permeation chromatography(GPC). The dependence of the molecular weight on the mol ratio was evaluated by the titration method. Also, the pH dependent turbidity of the polymers was determined by UV-Vis spectrophotometry. This pH dependent property of the polymers could be very useful for preparing drug carriers that are sensitive to pH.

Poly[(tri-O-acetyl-D-glucal)-alt-(maleic anhydride)] was synthesized by free radical copolymerizations of the relevant comonomers. The alternating sequence of the copolymer was confirmed by $^1$H-NMR, elemental analysis, and titration of anhydride groups incorporated into the copolymer. Hydrolysis of the copolymer under different conditions resulted in poly[(2-acetoxymethyl-3,4-diacetoxytetrahydropyran-5,6-diyl) (1,2-dicarboxyethylene)] and poly[(2-hydroxymethyl-3,4-dihydroxytetrahydropyran-5,6-diyl) (1,2-dicarboxyethylene)]. The cytotoxicities of these polymers measured against normal and tumor cells (3LL, B16) in vitro were found to be higher than that of DIVEMA, a prototype polymer having a high antitumor activity.
