The stability constants for the complexes formed between dibenzo-18-crown-6 compound and alkaline earth metal cations in dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, and acetonitrile have been obtained by conductometry at $25{\circ}C\;and\;35{\circ}C$respectively. The stability constants were increased in order of $Ca^{2+} in any solvent, and the magnitudes were found to be reversely proportional to the solvent donicities. The result could be understood in terms of ion-cavity radius concept, solvent basicity, and solvation of the cations.

Kinetic studies on the solvolysis of para-methyl benzyl nitrate and benzyl nitrate were carried out in aqueous methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, acetone, tetrahydrofuran and dioxane mixtures at 60$^{\circ}$C. The rates were faster in protic solvent mixtures than in aprotic solvent mixtures. This was considered in the light of transition state stabilization by hydrogen bonding solvation of protic solvent mixtures. Grunwald-Winstein equation, extended Grunwald-Winstein equation and correlation between E$_T$(30) and rate constant were applied in order to discuss the transition state variations caused by changing benzyl substituents and solvents. The results showed that strong electrophilic assistance of solvent is operative in the the water-rich solvents.

Tetrahydrotricyclopentadiene(below THTCPD) isomer is a good candidate materials for the high performance liquid fuel component because of its high density and heat of combustion value. The object of this study was to find out the proper reaction condition to improve the fluidity of THTCPD which is solid state at room temperature. Therefore, we have carried out isomerization reactions using aluminum chloride in the varying reaction condition such as reaction temperature and solvents. The results showed that when using aluminum chloride catalyst, THTCPD isomerization reaction was more active in the polar halogenated reaction media such as dichloromethane(methylene chloride: MC), 1,2-dichloroethane(ethylene chloride: EC) and chloroform than in non-polar hydrocarbon media such as n-Hexnae and toluene and was effected by reaction temperature variation.

The rate constants for the solvolysis of anthraquinone-2-carbonyl chloride in binary solvent mixtures, methanol-acetonitrile, methanol-acetone, ethanol-acetonitrile and ethanol-acetone, have been studied by means of conductometry. Maximum rate phenomena were observed at the methanol mole fraction, $X_{MeOH}$ = 0.73~0.81 for methanol-acetonitrile and at $X_{MeOH}$ = 0.83 for methanol-acetone mixtures. The Kivinen and Grunwald-Winstein plots indicated that the reaction proceeds via $S_N2$ type mechanism. Application of Taft's solvatochromic correlation on the solvolysis rate revealed that both $\alpha$ and ${\pi}^*$ are important for reactions in methanol-acetonitrile and methanol-acetone mixtures, while only ${\alpha}$ influences significantly on the rate in ethanol-acetonitrile and ethanol-acetone mixtures.

다공성 고분자 분리막을 제조하는 방법으로 기존의 용매교환법을 대신하여 내용매성, 내약품성 및 내열성이 매우 뛰어난 고분자를 소재로하여 다공성 고분자막을 만드는 열유도 상분리법(Thermally Induced Phase Separation, TIPS)이 개발되었다. TIPS공정에서는 주로 고분자/희석제 system의 열역학적인 불안정성에 의하여 polymer-rich phase와 polymer-lean phase로 상이 분리되는 liquid-liquid phase separation과 결정성 고분자의 결정화에 의한 solid-liquid phase separation을 주로 상분리 mechanism으로 사용하고 있다. 따라서 위에 언급된 TIPS 이론에 근거한 melt spinning 공정에 의하여 PP 중공사막을 제조하였는데 wet spinning 공정에 의한 용매 교환법에 비해 비교적 공정이 단순하고 다공도를 조건하기가 용이하며 구조 및 성능면에서도 높은 재현성을 가지고 있다. 또한 우수한 소재임에도 불구하고 절절한 용매의 부재로 용매교환법에서 사용할 수 없었던 폴리올레핀계, 나일론계, 방향족출합계 고분자를 사용할 수 있게 되어 소재의 폭이 넓어졌다는데에 가장 큰 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 PP중공사막을 제조하기 위하여 먼저 용융 방사장치를 제작하였고 melt spinning 공정에 의해 막을 제조하는데 적합한 방사조건들을 확립한 후 결정된 방사조건에 의해 얻어진 PP 중공사막의 구조 및 성능에 영향을 미치는 인자들에 관하여 조사하였다.

The spectral properties of the solvated electrons in tetrahydrofuran(THF)-water binary system have been investigated. In this study, the solvated electrons have been produced by applying nsec Q-switch Nd(YAG) laser photolysis technique. The experimental method photolysis were schematically described. The solvent and the temperature effects on the absorption spectrum of solvated electrons have also been studied. The observation of the spectrum with increasing THF content and temperatue showed a trend that the former shifted to longer wavelength and the other showed broadening effect. The half-life of solvated electrons were also increased with THF content. The absorption maxima of the mixtures were always observed in the middle of that of pure water and THF. The correlation between the volume and the absorption energy of solvated electrons were discussed from the results.

We tried to apply the linear solvation energy comparison method to solute retention in normal phase liquid chromatography. Correlation coefficients of regression of lnk' collected in a fixed eluent against solute polarity indices have proven to be lower than those obtained from reversed phase liquid chromatography data. This event can be attributed to complexity of solute retention process in normal phase liquid chromatography. We concluded from the regression results that each specific polarity of the stationary phase is greater than that of the mobile phase and that the difference in each polarity between the stationary phase and the mobile phase decreases as the volume fraction(${\phi}$) of the more polar solvent in the mobile phase increases. Correlations of lnk' of a single solute against solvent polarity indices have proven to be meaningless owing to covariance among the solvent polarity indices. Instead, a good linear relationship between lnk' and solvent ${\pi}^*$ was observed, and its linearity is better than that between lnk' and ${\phi}$.

In order to investigate the interaction characteristics of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) with various solvents such as water, ethanol, and iso-propanol, Inverse Gas Chromatography(IGC) at finite concentration, which is a very fast, accurate, and thus promising technique in thermodynamic study of polymer systems, is employed. By measuring the specific retention volumes of the probes, the interaction parameters are calculated by means of the Flory-Huggins equation. From the results, the interaction parameters of the probes are, as expected due to the hydrophobicity of the polymer, found to be of large positive values (2$2.0{\times}10^{-3}mol/g$. For the linear PDMS, interpretation of the space distribution of molecules is performed by the Kirkwood-Buff-Zimm(KBZ) integrals, which give intuitive information about physical properties. From the KBZ integrals, water does not show the tendency of preferential solvation with the PDMS but formed self-cluster. The larger solvent molecules show a stronger tendency to distribute more randomly in the mixture.

Mineral carbonation is a technology for permanently storing carbon dioxide by reacting with metal oxides containing calcium and magnesium. In this study, we used sea water and alkaline industrial by-product such as paper sludge ash (PSA) for the storage of carbon dioxide through direct carbonation. We found the optimum conditions of both sea water content (mixing ratio of sea water and PSA) and reaction time required in the direct carbonation through various experiments using sea water and PSA. In addition, we compared the amounts of carbon dioxide storage with the cases when sea water and ultra-pure water were separately used as solvents in the direct carbonation with PSA. The amount of carbon dioxide storage was calculated by using both solid weight increase through the carbonation reaction and the contents of carbonate salts from thermal gravimetric analysis. PSA particle used in this study contained 67.2% of calcium. The optimum sea water content and reaction time in the carbonation reaction using sea water and PSA were 5 mL/g and 2 hours, respectively, under the conditions of 0.05 L/min flow rate of carbon dioxide injected at $25^{\circ}C$ and 1 atm. The amounts of carbon dioxide stored when sea water and ultra-pure water were separately used as solvents in the direct carbonation with PSA were 113 and $101kg\;CO_2/(ton\;PSA)$, respectively. The solid obtained through the carbonation reaction using sea water and PSA was composed of mainly calcium carbonate in the form of calcite and a small amount of magnesium carbonate. The solid obtained by using ultra-pure water, also, was found to be carbonate salt in the form of calcite.

This review described solvent-tolerant lipases and their potential industrial, biotechnological and environmental impacts. Although organic solvent-tolerant lipase was first reported in organic solvent-tolerant bacterium, many organic solvent-tolerant lipases are in not only solvent-tolerant bacteria but also solvent-intolerant bacterial and fungal strains, such as the well-known Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Streptomyces and Aspergillus strains. As these lipases are not easily inactivated in organic solvents, there is no need to immobilize them in order to prevent an enzyme inactivation by solvents. Therefore, the solvent-tolerant lipases have the potential to be used in many biotechnological and biotransformation processes. With the solvent-tolerant lipases, a large number insoluble substrates become soluble, various chemical reactions that are initially impossible in water systems become practical, synthesis reactions (instead of hydrolysis) are possible, side reactions caused by water are suppressed, and the possibility of chemoselective, regioselective and enantioselective transformations in solvent and non-aqueous systems is increased. Furthermore, the recovery and reuse of enzymes is possible without immobilization, and the stabilities of the lipases improve in solvent and non-aqueous systems. Therefore, lipases with organic-solvent tolerances have attracted much attention in regards to applying them as biocatalysts to biotransformation processes using solvent and non-aqueous systems.
