Dispersions of fumed silica are made in 6 kinds of mono-solvents and mixed solvents which have hydroxyl group, non hydroxyl group, different polarity, and different molecular size. The viscosity and rheology behaviors of the each dispersion are investigated according to the viewpoint of solvent characteristic. The silica dispersion in polar solvent with hydroxyl group is stable and low viscous sol. The silica dispersion in non-polar solvent with non-hydroxyl group is high viscous gel. When the solvent with hydroxyl group is added to the silica dispersions with non-polar solvents, they show the reduction of viscosity with solvent content. They have minimum critical content which shows no viscosity change. The minimum critical solvent content is decreased according to the polarity of solvents with no hydroxyl group. The solvation layer which is formed on the silica surface through hydrogen bonding between hydroxyl-containing solvent and the silanol group of silica surface is the reason of stable and low viscous sol. In case of non-polar solvent, silanol on adjacent silica particles interacted directly by hydrogen bonding show high viscous and flocculated gel.

Kinetic studies for the nucleophilic substitution reactions of para-substituted benzyl bromides and benzyl iodide with anilines were carried out in MeOH-MeCN mixtures at 35.0$^{\circ}$C. Hammett $ {\rho}_N,\;{\rho}_C$, Bronsted $ {\beta}$ and solvatochromic correlation coefficient a, s values were determined in order to clarify the transition state variations caused by changing nucleophiles, substituents, leaving group and solvents. The results of solvatochromic equation showed that ${\pi}^{ast}$effect was a dominant factor for the reaction systems studied. It was shown that the reaction proceeds via the dissociative $S_N$2 mechanism using the potential energy surface model approach. The potential energy surface model approach however failed to account for the transition state variation due to leaving group changes. The quatum mechanical approach showed that kinetic results were consistent with proposed dissociative $S_N$2 mechanism.

Racemic tris-oxalatocobaltate (III) complex ions were optically resolved by an optical active complex, ${\Delta}$-tris-ethylenediamine cobalt (III), and then racemization of ${\bigwedge}-[Co(ox)_3]^{3-}$ obtained was investigated in various mixed solvent such as water-organic solvent (organic solvents=ethanol, iso-propyl alcohol, acetone, and dioxane). The rate of racemization was increased with following order; water < ethanol < acetone < isopropyl alcohol < dioxane; which is the same order for polarizability of organic solvent added. Considering ${\Delta}H^{\neq},\;{\Delta}S^{\neq}$ and above facts for the racemization of ${\bigwedge}-[Co(ox)_3]^{3-}$, it seems to be twist mechanism of plausible mechanisms.

Crystallization behaviour of bisphenol A polycarbonate(PC) from amorphous phase was studied by varing solvent/nonsolvent ratios in liquid phase. Chloroform and isopropanol were used as a solvent and a nonsolvent, respectively. Samples were characterized by optical microphotography, scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffaction (XRD), and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). DSC and XRD measurement were used to determine the crystallinity of PC. The solubility constant seems to critical to control the PC crystallinity in solvent/nonsolvent mixture. The difference in PC crystallinity is explained by the difference in solubility constant of the mixture depending on the solvent/nonsolvent ratio. PC solution of 75/25 wt% (solvent/nonsolvent) ratio produced PC powder showing maximum crystallinity. At this condition solubility constant (9.85) of the mixed solvent was close to PC (9.9).

Kinetic studies for the nucleophilic substitution reactions of benzyl halides(para-substituted benzyl bromides and benzyliodide) with substituted pyridines in MeOH-MeCN mixtures have been carried out in order to elucidate the reaction mechanism. Cross interaction coefficient, ${\rho}_{XY}$ values suggested that the reactions between benzylhalides and substituted pyridines exhibit an dissocitive $S_N$2 mechanism. Hammett (${\rho}_X$, ${\rho}_Y$), Br${\o}$nsted ${\beta}_N$ and solvatochromic correlation coefficient a, s, a/s values were illustrated. Kinetic results were compared between potential energy surface model and quantum mechanical model. The quantum mechanical approach showed to be consistent with kinetic results.

암을 억제시키는 기능을 하는 단백질로 잘 알려진 p53은, 주로 종양세포에서 과도하게 발현되는 단백질인 HDM2와 복합체를 형성하여 비활성화되고 항암기능을 상실하게 됩니다. 때문에 종양세포에서의 p53-HDM2의 상호작용을 억제하기 위해 현재까지 많은 연구가 진행되어왔으며, 다양한 p53-HDM2 억제제가 개발된 바 있습니다. 최근 연구들에 따르면, HDM2와 결합친화도를 높이고 소수성 작용(hydrophobic interaction)에 기여하여 보다 안정한 구조를 만드는 탄화수소체인(staple)을 연결시킨 펩타이드 설계에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있는 추세입니다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 분자동역학 모의실험을 통해서 얻은 탄화수소체인-p53과 비탄화수소체인-p53 및 각각의 HDM2와 결합한 복합체를 기반으로 EDISON의 용매화 자유에너지(Solvation Free Energy) 프로그램을 이용하여 탄화수소체인의 특징 및 역할을 구조적인 측면과 열역학적인 측면으로 분석하여 비교하고자 합니다. 우리 연구에서 비탄화수소체인-p53의 구조는 분자동역학 시뮬레이션을 수행하는 동안 나선구조형태로 풀려 HDM2와 결합 유도 시에 주요결합 아미노산 잔기가 올바른 결합부위와 상호작용하지 못한 결과를 확인한 반면, 탄화수소체인이 형성된 구조는 시뮬레이션 동안에도 펩타이드의 나선구조를 유지시켜 HDM2와 주요 결합을 형성하는 아미노산 잔기들을 올바른 방향으로 배치시켜 HDM2와의 결합친화도를 높였습니다. 이 연구 결과는 탄화수소체인이 펩타이드의 나선성을 유지시키고, HDM2와의 상호작용을 통한 구조적인 안정성 유도 및 용매화 자유에너지에 큰 기여를 통해 p53-HDM2상호작용 억제제에서 긍정적인 역할을 할 가능성을 보여줍니다.

An extractive fermentation process was developed to produce citric acid from g1ucose. Citric acid is a strong inhibitor to this fermentation. A mixture of tertiary amine and oleyl alcohol was used to selectively extract citric acid from the fermentation broth, hence enhancing the productivity by over 200%. Although the toxicity of the solvent was significant in the range of higher than 30% of amine, immobilization in polyurethane foam was useful to protect the cells from the toxicity of the solvent.

셀룰로오스 용매계는 크게 직접용매계와 간접용매계로 나뉠 수 있으며, 잘 알려진 "비스코스 레이온(viscose rayon)"공정은 공정 중간단계에 이황화탄소(CS$_2$)를 사용하여 셀룰로오스 크산테이트 유도체를 만들고 이를 다시 수산화나트륨에 용해시키는 간접용매계에 속한다. 수산화나트륨 수용액에 용해된 비스코스 용액은 응고 욕내에서 황산과 반응하여 셀룰로오스로 재생이 되는데 비스코스 용액의 재생과정에서 발생하는 이황화탄소는 그 자체가 독성이 심한 가연성 액체일 뿐만 아니라 부반응을 통하여 삼황화소다(sodium trithiocarbonate) 및 황화수소(H$_2$S)를 발생한다.(중략)

Several single or mixed water-miscible organic solvent systems were investigated to develop the most effective solvent system for enzymatic synthesis of N-benzoylaspartame(BzAPM). The BzAPM was prepared by immobilized thermolysin with using N-benzoyl-L-aspartic acid(Bz-Asp) and L-phenylalanine methyl ester(PheOMe). The solubilities of BzAPM and L-phenylalanine were highest in 4.5% methanol(1.89 and 1.79%, respectively) among the solvents system investigated while a mixed solvent system of 25% dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO) and 20% polyethylene glycol(PEG) 200 showed relatively high values. The synthetic activity of BzAPM as well as initial reaction rate were found to be high in 45% methanol, 45% DMSO and a mixed solvent of 25% DMSO and 20% PEM 200. The imobilized thermolysin was most stable in 25% DMSO and 20% PEG 200 during storage at $40^{\circ}C$ for 42 days. PheOMe in the same solvent system was also found fairly stable against non-enzymatic decomposition at $40^{\circ}C$. Based on the synthetic efficiency and stability, the solvent system containing 25% DMSO and 20% PEG 200 was selected to be appropriate for the enzymatic synthesis of BzAPM.

Halogen exchange reactions of benzyl halides have been studied in absolute acetone. Rate constants were calculated using an integrated rate expression derived for the reaction involving ion-pair association. The order of nucleophilicity of halide ions in acetone was found to be a reverse of the order in 90% aqueous enthanol solvent. This was interpreted by means of HSAB principle and solvation of halide ions. Net increase in rate of reaction in acetone compared with the rate in protic solvent resulted from large increase in ${\Delta}S^\neq$ rather than decrease in ${\Delta}H^\neq$. The solvation of the transition state also contribute to the net increase in rate.
