We have obtained retention data of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, phenol, and acetophenone at 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 $^{\circ}C$ in 30/70, 40/60, 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, and 80/20 (v/v %) methanol/water eluents using a $C_18$ phase with a high ligand density. We drew van't Hoff plots from the data, and computed enthalpies and entropies of solute transfer from the mobile to the stationary phase. The cavity formation effect was found the major factor that governs the solute distribution between the mobile and stationary phases. The hydrophobic effect became significant in highly aqueous mobile phases. We also concluded that the Shodex C18-5B stationary phase was a polymer-like phase with a high ligand density, and followed a partially adsorption-like mechanism.

Quantum chemical quantities, enthalpy of formation(${\Delta}H_f$), HOMO and LUMO energy, and dipole moment(${\mu}_D$) were acquired by AM1, PM3, and ZINDO/1 methods for polyamines and imidazole derivatives. The investigation of the inhibitory activity on some Ni(II) complexes with polyamines and imidazole derivatives is performed by ZINDO/1 calculations. It was found that experimental inhibitory activity(IA) appeared when the value of net charge and enthalpy of formation were over 0.03 and -300 eV, respectively for Ni(II) complexes. These results showed that the Ni(II) complexes have exception on the following very unstable compounds: square pyramidal [Ni(dpt)(tn)])]$^{2+}$(dpt=3,3'-diaminodipropylamine)(tn=1,3-diaminopropane) and distorted tetrahedral [Ni(N-PropIm))$_2$(NCS))$_2$](N-PropIm=N-Propylimidazole).

Five cobalt(Ⅲ) complexes were synthesized from bi- or tridentate nitrogen ligands. Catalytic actions of these complexes for hydrolyses of p-nitrophenyl picolinate, p-nitrophenyl nicotinate, and p-nitrophenyl isonicotinate were investigated by a spectrophotometric method. p-Nitrophenyl picolinate showed the most senstive reaction among three substrates by these catalysts. Aquohydroxo Co(Ⅲ) complexes raised as much as 21∼40 times the rate of hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl picolinate at pH 6.5. Activities of complexes were in the order: Co(ibpn)(OH)2(OH2) > Co(aepn)(OH)2(OH2) > Co(tn)2(OH)(OH2) > Co (bpy)2(OH)(OH2) > Co(dien)(OH)2(OH2). Catalytic hydrolysis was postulated to proceed through a intramolecular general base catalysis path which is mixed by a partial intramolecular nucleophilic catalysis.

Novel chromium(III), manganese(II), iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), copper(II), ruthenium(III), and zirconyl(II) complexes of $N^1,N^2$-bis(3-((3-hydroxynaphthalen-2-yl)methylene-amino)propyl)phthalamide ($H_4L$, 1) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental, physical, and spectral analyses. The spectral data showed that the ligand behaves as either neutral tridentate ligand as in complexes 2-5 with the general formula $[H_4LMX_2(H_2O)]{\cdot}nH_2O$ (M=Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), X = Cl or $NO_3$), neutral hexadentate ligand as in complexes 10-12 with the general formula $[H_4LM_2Cl_6]{\cdot}nH_2O$ (M=Fe(III), Cr(III) or Ru(III)), or dibasic hexadentate ligand as in complexes 6-9 with the general formula $[H_2LM_2Cl_2(H_2O)_4]{\cdot}nH_2O$ (M = Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II) or Mn(II), and 13 with general formula $[H_4L(ZrO)_2Cl_2]{\cdot}8H_2O$. Molar conductance in DMF solution indicated the non-ionic nature of the complexes. The ESR spectra of solid copper(II) complexes 2, 5, and 6 showed $g_{\parallel}$ >g> $g_e$, indicating distorted octahedral structure and the presence of the unpaired electron in the $N^1,N^2$ orbital with significant covalent bond character. For the dimeric copper(II) complex $[H_2LCu_2Cl_2(H_2O)_4]{\cdot}3H_2O$ (6), the distance between the two copper centers was calculated using field zero splitting parameter for the parallel component that was estimated from the ESR spectrum. The antibacterial and antifungal activities of the compounds showed that, some of metal complexes exhibited a greater inhibitory effect than standard drug as tetracycline (bacteria) and Amphotricene B (fungi).

This study aimed to determine the human androgen receptor (AR)-mediated endocrine disrupting potential of parabens and triclosan in food and household products using a cell-based assay in the OECD TG No.458, the 22Rv1/MMTV_GR-KO transcriptional activation assay. Four parabens (methyl-, ethyl-, propyl-, and butyl-) are determined as AR antagonists in OECD TG No.458. However, their AR antagonistic effects were not exhibited in the presence of the S9 hepatic fraction. Triclosan is also classified as an AR antagonist, and the AR antagonistic effect induced by triclosan significantly decreased in the presence of the phase I + II S9 fraction. Regarding the mechanism of AR antagonism induced by parabens and triclosan, the AR-mediated endocrine disrupting effects were exhibited through suppressing the translocation of ligand-bound AR to the nucleus via blocking of AR dimerization in the cytosol. These results indicate that the four parabens and triclosan have AR-mediated endocrine disrupting potential through an AR antagonistic effect via inhibiting AR dimerization; however, their endocrine disrupting effects deceased in the presence of hepatic metabolic enzymes.

Cu(II)-organic complexes were synthesized with Lewis base organic ligands including diamine, aminothiol, and dithiol to determine the reactivity for DFP hydrolysis. Results show that the aminothiol catalyst enhances the hydrolysis of DFP in three folds compared to diamine type because aminothiol has higher basicity than diamine. Due to low solubility of Cu(II)(1,2-ethane dithiol)$(NO_3)_2$, it is impossible to compare directly the rates in homogeneous condition. However, the rate of dithol complex is even 1.6 times faster than that of the diamine type. The reactivity of zeolite for DFP hydrolysis is also evaluated. NaY type does not promote the hydrolysis, but RuNaY shows relatively lower reactivity than those of Cu(II)-organic ligands complexes.

Tetracycline (TC) groups, widely used veterinary antibiotics, can enter into environment through animal manure application. TC forms a ligand complex with multivalent metal cations via chelation that can affect sorption and mobility of TC in soil. So far, however, it has been confirmed through the reaction of the soil outside in the aqueous solution and the evaluation of the performance in the soil cultivation process is insufficient. The purpose of this study was to examine effects of copper on TC toxicity to lettuce growth. In this research, $750mg\;kg^{-1}$ of TC and 2.5, 7.5, $17.5mg\;kg^{-1}$ of Cu are treated in soil and lettuce was cultivated in the treated soil. Growth difference of lettuce by treatment was observed. As a result, $750mg\;kg^{-1}$ of TC treated soil showed toxic effect to lettuce and the effect is alleviated by copper treatment.

Separation of optical isomers of DNS derivatized amino acids by a reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography has been studied by adding a complex of an optically active amino acid (L-arginine) with the metal ion (Cu(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Ni(II)) to the mobile phase. The separations are affected by the concentrations of acetonitrile, chelate and buffer. They are also affected by the pH and the kinds of metal and buffer. A separation mechanism, which is based on steric effect of the ligand exchange reaction for the formation of ternary complexes by the D,L-DNS-amino acids and the chiral additive associated with the stationary phase, is proposed to interpret the elution behaviors of D, L-dansyl-amino acids.

무전해 니켈도금 용액의 성분은 Ni(II)염, 환원제, 적합한 금속 배위 리간드, 안정제 및 특정 특성 요구에 대한 첨가제를 포함한다. 일반적으로 도금 욕에는 미량의 안정제가 함유되어 있다. 만약 적절한 안정화 시스템이 없는 도금 욕에서 도금 공정 시 도금 시작 직후에 많은 양의 니켈 플레이크(Ni flake)가 생성되어 빠르게 도금 용액이 분해되어 더 이상 도금이 어렵게 된다. 그러나 무전해 도금 욕에서 안정제의 역할 및 도금 층에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 여전히 부족한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 $Pb^{2+}$ 안정제 농도가 도금 층에 미치는 영향과 캐비테이션 침식 실험을 통해 그 내구성을 평가하고자 하였다. 무전해 니켈코팅을 위한 모재는 회주철(FC250)을 $19.5mm{\times}19.5mm{\times}5mm$의 크기로 가공하였다. 회주철의 인장강도는 $330N/mm^2$이며, 그 성분 조성(wt.%)은 3.23 C, 1.64 Si, 0.84 Mn, 0.016 P, 0.013 S 그리고 나머지는 Fe이다. 시험편은 SiC 페이퍼 #1200까지 연마하여 시험편의 표면 거칠기는 $1.6-2.1{\mu}m$ 범위 내로 제작하였다. 무전해 도금 전 시험편은 탈지를 위해 상온의 아세톤 용액에서 3분간 초음파 세척하고, $90^{\circ}C$의 알카리 수용액으로 5분간 세척하였다. 그리고 표면 활성화를 위한 산세척은 5% 황산용액에서 30초 동안 실시하였다. 도금조로 500mL 비커를 사용하였으며, 모든 시험편은 2시간 동안 무전해 니켈도금을 실시하였다. 그리고 니켈도금 층의 내식성과 내구성을 평가하기 위해 전기화학적 분극 실험을 통한 타펠분석과 ASTM G32 규정에 의거한 캐비테이션 침식 실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과 안정제 농도가 도금 속도와 도금 층의 성분 변화에 크게 영향을 미쳤으며, 그에 따라 도금 층의 내식성과 내구성이 크게 변화되었다.

Phosphorylation of amino acid residues in proteins, plays a major role in biological mechanism. Phosphorylation acts as a process regulating the protein activity in variable pathways such as metabolism, signal transduction and cell division. Therefore the development of ligands for phosphoamino acids are an important work for protein analysis and proteomics studies. In this study, RNA aptamers for o-phosphoserine, o-phosphotyrosine and o-phosphotyrosine which appears frequently in nature were developed by in vitro evolution method. We could obtain similar sequences from random RNAs of 40 mer by SELEX method through 10 cycles. As result, the aptamers for o-phosphoserine and o-phosphothreonine among phosphoamino acids aptamers showed high affinity of Kd=2.60 nM and 2.65 nM for their target molecules, respectively. In addition, these aptamers could be confirmed the high selectivity for their target.
