Quinolone derivatives have been used as antibacterial agents. In this work, the competitive C-and O-acylation reaction of 3,4-dichloroacetophenone, as a model study for the synthesis of quinolone intermediate, is studied. The effects of various bases, solvents and the leaving groups of acylating agents on the ratio of C-versus O-acylation of 3,4-dichloroacetophenone are elucidated by means of employing ethylchloroformate, ethylphenylcarbonate and diethylcarbonate as acylating agents. In aprotic solvents, C-acylation reactions occur more predominantly as the size of metal ions composing bases becomes smaller. Regarding the effects of leaving groups, it is shown that C-acylation product is increased as the ability of leaving groups of acylating agents decreases. The ratio of C/O-acylation is also observed to be increased as the polarity of solvents decreases.

Optimization theory was applied to a native and two imported soybeans. Failure stress and stress relaxation curve was measured with rheometer, and color was measured by colorimeter. The effects of each soybean upon the tofu texture were expressed through a non-linear canonical regression model and trace plot. Compared to the other imported soybeans, native soybean produced a higher strength in tofu texture, and showed the positive increase in viscoelastic properties such as instantaneous stress, equilibrium stress and relaxation time, whereas it had no effect on whiteness from reference blend, represented that native soy-bean showed the individual strength upon the selected rheological texture properties. Higher soaking ability in native soybean was selected as a new response for the optimization mixture process, and it contributed positively to the rheological properties of tofu. New soaking process control system during processing and desirability for the mathematical model should be applied for a better mixture design in varieties of soybeans.

Excessive use of the internet and smart phones have become a social issue. The level of engagement has both positive and negative effects such as good performance or indulgence phenomenon, respectively. This study was to develop an algorithm to determine the engagement state based on cardiovascular response. The participants were asked to play a pattern matching game and the experimental design was divided into cooperation and competition task to provide the level of engagement. The correlation between heart rate and amplitude was analyzed according to each task. The regression equation and accuracy were verified by polynomial regression analysis. The results showed that heart rate and amplitude were positively correlated when the task was a game, and negatively correlated when there was a reference task. The accuracy of classifying between game and reference task was 89%. The accuracy between tasks was confirmed to be 76.5%. This study is expected to be used to quantitatively evaluate the level of engagement in real time.

Fiber-optic evanescent wave sensor was designed and fabricated to detect mouse immunoglobulin G(IgG) with decladed optical fiber on which anti-mouse IgG was immobilized. A sensitivity obtained by any direct or competitive method was lower than $1\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. Anti-mouse IgG was immobilized on 93.9% of core surface of optical fiber by simple adsorption method. The effect of postcoating using bovine serum albumin to remove non-specific binding was not observed. As the ratio of fluorescein to mouse IgG increased, the fluorescence signal increased, but that increase showed no linear relationship. Our fiber-optic sensor system could be used as immunosensor by measuring evanescent fluorescence in antigen-antibody reaction with good sensitivity below $1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ level.

The rate of hydrolysis of insecticidal $O,O-diethyl-{\alpha}-cyanobenzylideneamino-oxyphosphorothioate\;(Volaton^{\circledR})$ has been studied in 25% (v/v) aqueous dioxane. On the basis of solvent effect (pH 6.0; m=0.21, n=1.55, pH 12.0; m=0.42, n=3.14 & $|m|{\ll}|l|$), general base catalysis, hydrolysis product analysis, calculation of molecular orbital (MO) and rate equation, it may be concluded that the hydrolysis of Volaton proceeds through the $A_{AC}2$ mechanism via trigonal bipyramidal $(sp^3d^2)$ intermediate below pH 7.0, while above pH 9.0 the hydrolysis proceeds through the $B_{AC}2$ mechanism. Hydrolysis reactivity of Volaton depends on positive charge strength $(p{\gg}{\alpha}C_2)$ rather than steric hindrance. In the range between pH 7.0 and pH 9.0, these two reactions occur competitively.

To study the Cd adsorption in the presence of competing ions in soil-solution interphase, three soil samples from the Bt horizon were taken and analyzed for their physical and chemical properties. Adsorption of ethylene glycol monoethyl ether(EGME) and N, were determined to establish the specific surface area of the soils. We attempted to establish a qeneralizing competitive sorption isotherms for soils of entirely different composition of the solid phase, resulting in the routine use as a guidelines for the fate of reactive solute in soil profiles. Many physicochemical factors including competitive adsorption bettween solutes will affect the general adsorption phenomena as shown in a single not only on the soil:solution ratio used, but also on the surface areas of its respective soil samples. This phenomenon was attributed to competition Cd for sorption sites with Mg by different soil constituents. These adsorption isotherms are able to use as examples to demonstrate that this phenomenon can complicate the development of a standardized batch adsorption procedure as well as interpreting fate and adsorption of toxic inorganic compounds.

This paper theoretically formulated and empirically explored the relationship between exchange rate pass-through (ERPT) for (average) market price and an individual country's price, using steel products data in the US market, with special reference to two major steel exporting countries, Korea and Japan. It was found that the direction of market ERPT can be different from that of individual ERPT that each exporter experiences, due to strategic interactions among producers and different parameters. Vector error correction (VEC) models and impulse response analysis were used with the statistical inference based on the bootstrap-after- bootstrap of Kilian (1998) for short-run, and the fully modified estimation of Phillips and Hansen (1990) was used for long-run. Empirical results indicate that market ERPT in the US market due to changes in Korea-US exchange rates is different from those due to changes in Japan-US exchange rates. The framework developed in this study indicates that this phenomenon is attributed to either (i) the two countries have individual ERPTs of different magnitudes and directions for the products in the US market, or (ii) the pricing strategies of the other exporters' (to the US steel market) respond differently depending on whether the price of the product from Korea changes or that from Japan does. As each exporter's ERPT can be significantly different, and market response to each country's ERPT can be also different, this study concludes that it is crucial for an exporter to understand how competitors in the market respond to changes in its price, as well as to understand how its price changes when the relevant exchange rate fluctuates.

The rate constants of the derivatives of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-benzimidoyl chloride were determined at various pH and a rate equation which can be applied over wide pH range was obtained. The reaction mechanism of hydrolysis of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-benzimidoyl chloride which has not been studied carefully earlier in acidic and basic solution can be fullly explained by the rate equation obtained. The rate equation reveals that, beow pH 7.00, the hydrolysis of benzimidoyl chloride proceeds through $S_N2$ reaction to form a carbonium ion intermediate.Above pH 8.5, however, the hydrolysis proceeds through the $S_N2$ type reaction which depends on hydroxide ion and imidoyl chloride concentration. At pH 7.0∼8.5, two reactions occur competitively.

The kinetics of hydrolysis of hydrazonyl bromides $(p-H,\;p-CH_3,\;p-OCH_3,\;p-Br,\;p-Cl\;&\;p-NO_2)$ have been investigated by UV spectrometry in $60{\%}$ dioxane-water at $25^{\circ}C$ and a rate equation which can be applied over wide pH range was obtained. Below pH2, the rate of hydrolysis of a series of hydrazonyl bromide is accelerated by electrondonating group (${\rho}$ = -0. 94) whereas at the pH values greater than 4, the ${\rho}$-value is 0.54. The rate equation, solvent-, substituent-and bromide ion-effect on the rate of hydrolysis are rationalized in terms of $S_N1$ and $S_N2$ mechanism: below pH 2, the hydrolysis proceed through $S_N2$, however, above pH 4, the hydrolysis is started by the attack of hydroxide ion and in the range pH 2{\sim}$4, these two reactions occur competitively.

Kinetics data were obtained for steam reforming of methane and natural gas over the commercial nickel catalyst. Variables for the steam reforming were the reaction temperature and partial pressure of reactants. Parameters for the Power law rate model and the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model were obtained from the kinetic data. As a result of the reforming reaction using pure methane as a reactant, the reaction rate could be determined by the Power law rate model as well as the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model. In the case of methane in natural gas, however, the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model is much more suitable than the Power law rate model in terms of explaining methane reforming reaction. This behavior can be attributed to the competitive adsorption of methane, ethane, propane and butane in natural gas over the same catalyst sites.
