This study was performed to observe cytotoxic effect of the pine needle extracts against cancer cell lines including human gastric carcinoma (KATOIII), human lung carcinoma (A549), human hepatocellular carcinoma (Hep3B) and human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) using MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) and SRB (sulforhodamine B) method. The extracts were prepared by step-wise fractionation of ethanol extract of pine needles using diethylether, chloroform, ethylacetate, butanol and water. The growth of the cancer cells in medium containing pine needle extracts were significantly inhibited degree in proportion to the increase of the extract concentration. A significant shrinkage of Hep3B cells was observed when the cells were exposed into 0.5, 1 mg/mL of pinus rigida extract.

The reaction of thianthrene cation radical perchlorate with thioxanthene in acetonitrile gave thianthrene and dark reddish thioxanthylium ion instead of thioxanthene cation radical. Addition of aromatic nucleophiles such as anisole, aniline, N,N-diethylaniline, catechol, ethylbenzene, to the above mixture yielded the corresponding thioxanthenes with substituent at 9 position. Reactions with dibenzo-18-crown-6-ether, diphenylmercury, and triphenylphosphine gave similar products. However, reactions with aromatics with electron-withdrawing group were either too slow or inert to such a reaction.

The dried bark of Platycarya strobilacea were ground, extracted with 95% EtOH, concentrated, and one of EtOH extracts was fractionated with a series of n-hexane, dichloromethane and another was fractionated with a series of petroleumether, $Et_2O$, ethyl acetate on a separatory funnel. A portion of dichloromethane soluble was chromatographed on a Sephadex LH-20 column ($72.0{\times}5.0cm$) using EtOH-$CHCl_3$ (7:3, v/v) as eluent and A portion of $Et_2O$ soluble was chromatographed on a silica gel column ($42.0{\times}3.5cm$) using $CHCl_3$-MeOH (9:3, v/v) as eluent. The isolated compounds were identified by TLC, $^1H$-, $^{13}C$-NMR, HMBC and EI-MS. Two flavonoids and three flavonoid glycosides were isolated from the bark of P strobilacea. The structures were determined to quercetin (compound 1), myricetin (compound 2) as flavonol compounds and afzelin (compound 3), quercitrin (compound 4), myricitrin (compound 5) as flavonol glycosides, respectively, on the basis of spectrosopic data.

Accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) was used for a rapid and simple extraction of propylenchlorohydrin (PCH) residue in hydroxylpropyl modified starch. The effects of temperature, pressure and extraction solvent on the extraction efficiency were investigated to find the optimal condition of ASE. The optimal conditions for PCH extraction in hydroxylpropyl modified starch were static time of 50 min, purge time of 300 sec, heating time of 5min, temperature of 12$0^{\circ}C$, pressure of 2500 psi, flush (%) with 100 volumes, and ethylacetate as an extraction solvent. The recovery (96.1%) of this method was higher than that (76.4%) of Code of Food Additive. Therefore, the ASE was a good method in both aspects of efficiency and effectiveness.

The presence of 10 mole percent triphenyl borate accelerated dramatically the rate of reduction of structurally different sulfoxides with borane in tetrahydrofuran at room temperature, compared to the slow reduction with borane itself. Tetramethylene sulfoxide underwent complete reduction in 5 min and diethyl sulfoxide, dibenzyl sulfoxide and benzylphenyl sulfoxide were reduced quantitatively within 1h, whereas the reduction of diphenyl sulfoxide was rather slow, giving diphenyl sulfide in 90% yield in 24h. Boron trifluoride etherate and triethyl borate were less effective than triphenyl borate. A possible mechanism is presented.

Various half-ester acrylates were prepared from anhydrides and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. Photocurable epoxy modified acrylates were prepared from synthesized half-ester acrylate and neopentylglycol diglycidylether. Physical properties such as hardness, yellowing, tensile strength and elongation were tested and compared as the structure of oligomer in cured-film differs. It was found that viscosity of neopentylglycol diglycidylether-hexahydrophthalic anhydride (NP-HA) was highest. Hardness and tensile strength of photocrosslinked neopentylglycol diglycidylether-hexahydrophthalic anhydride were better than those of other photocrosslinted epoxy acrylates. And 5% weight loss temperature of photocrosslinked neopentylglycol diglycidylether-hexahydrophthalic anhydride was higher than those of other photocrosslinked epoxy acrylates. Value of yellow index of photocrosslinked neopentylglycol diglycidyl ether-succinic anhydride (NP-SA) was lower than the other products.

The brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are one of the unregulated pollutants in Korea, which is recently highlighted the new pollutants of environmental contamination. In this study, the previous research papers related the BFRs were surveyed, and the analytical methods of BFRs were established. The results are followed; The 40 kinds of PBDEs standards were used to establish the analytical methods to perform the experiments of recoveries and detection limits in water and soil. The detection limits of PBDEs using GC/MS represented 5.0~10.0 pg/L for water and 0.5~2.0 ng/g for soil samples. The average recoveries of water samples were 89~98% with ethylacetate, n-hexane and dichloromethane, and 89~103% in combined solvent with n-hexane and acetone. In soxhlet extraction, the higher recoveries obtained the acetone:n-hexane(1:1) comparing with acetone:dichloromethane(1:1).

The diesel engine is one of the most effective transport options available in all sizes and covering a wide range of applications. But, many researchers developing the diesel engine are facing tough challenges in view of the increasingly lower emissions standards. Thus, this study will explore the possible fuel additive technology to further reduce the emissions from the IDI diesel engine. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of oxygenated fuels on the exhaust emissions and to attain a better trade-off relation between smoke and NOx in four cylinder diesel engine. Experiments were conducted with oxygenated fuels as an effective way to improve the combustion efficiency. Some of oxygenated fuel(Diglyme and DEE) were added to the conventional diesel fuel which had no an oxygen content. Also, EGR was adopted for reducing NOx without any strong adverse effects on other exhaust emissions. This study concluded that exhaust emissions in diesel engine could be reduced by adding the oxygenated fuels which had lower boiling point, and the combustion efficiency was also improved as the oxygen content in fuel increased.

Author studied on the isolation technique and properties of the products obtained by the reaction of soybean oil with maleic anhydride. Before studying above purpose, oleic acid and linoleic acid contained in soybean oil were reacted with maleic anhydride. Thin-layer chromatography using silica coated plate and solvent system consisting of petroleum ether-diethyl ether = 7:3∼5:5 (v/v) resulted in good effects on the isolation of maleic anhydride adducts. Four fractions were separated and fraction No. 2 were analyzed by IR & UV spectrophotometer, obtaining the following conclusions. In the case of oleic acid adduct and linoleic acid adduct, it were conjectured that the succinic acid type adduct was formed. In the case of conjugated $C_{18}$ fatty acid adduct, cyclohexene type adduct was formed which differed from oleic acid and linoleic acid adduct.

Nitrogen oxides(NOx) and smoke emissions of diesel engine are regarded as a source of air pollution, and there is a global trend to enforce more stringent regulations on these exhaust gas emissions. However, the trade-off relation of NOx and smoke is a main obstacle to reduce both of them simultaneously. In this paper, experiments were conducted with an oxygenated fuel(diethyl ether) as an effective way to improve the trade-off relation of NOx and smoke. Exhaust emissions of diesel fuels with DEE were influenced by the additive content of DEE and the injection timing. Especially, DEE effected more at the high engine speed and load than at the low engine speed and load. Diesel fuel blended with DEE 10% was a desirable blend for the simultaneous reduction of NOx and smoke.
