In this study, the effect of formaldehyde to phenol (F/P) molar ratios, catalyst wt%, and reaction temperature on the chemical structure was studied utilizing a two-level full factorial experimental design. The effect of three variables on the chemical structure was analyzed by using three-way ANOVA of SPSS. Concentration of methyrol-substituted phenols after 300 min addition reaction increased with higher the F/P mole ratio, lower the reaction temperature and lower the catalyst wt%. Resol catalysed by barium hydroxide showed higher addition of formaldehyde onto ortho positions of phenolic rings. A simplified elementary reaction model for resole type phenolic resin formation which do not consider the dissociation of phenolic compounds and the fraction of formaldehyde in the form of methylene glycol was proposed and compared with Zavitsas' type models. Elementary reaction model showed error of 2.79% compared to the error of 3.27% in Zavitsas' type models. It was thought that the elementary reaction model could be used to predict the behavior of addition reaction in resol formation.

The kinetics of the acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of a series of 1-aryl-2-pyrrylideneaniline (3) have been studied in 20% MeOH solution using UV spectrophotometer. Substituents in 3 showed a relatively small effect, with hydrolysis facilitated by electron withdrawing group. By obtaing linear plots of $log k_{obs}$ against Hammett ${\sigma}$ constants, it was able to show that substituents had a considerable contribution to the aromaticity of pyrrole compounds. The small positive ${\rho}$ values were consistent with the rate-determining addition of water to the protonated schiff base in the buffer solution of pH 4 to 8, whereas the addition of water to the free imine seemed to be the rate-determining in the solution of acidities greater than pH 8.

The kinetics of the thermal-oxidative decomposition of waste polyurethane (PU) according to oxygen concentration has been studied using a non-isothermal thermogravimetric technique at several heating rates from 10 to $50^{\circ}C/min$. A kinetic model accounting for the effects of the oxygen concentration by the differential and integral method based on Arrhenius equation was proposed to describe the thermal-oxidative decomposition of waste PU. To obtain the information on the kinetic parameters such as activation energy, reaction order, and pre-exponential factor, the thermogravimetric analysis curves and its derivatives have been analyzed using the kinetic analysis method proposed in this work. From this work, it was found that reaction orders for oxygen concentration had a negative sign, and activation energy decreased as the oxygen concentration increased. It was also found that the kinetic parameters obtained from the integral method using the single heating rate experiments varied with heating rates. Therefore, it is thought that the differential method using the multiple heating rate experiments more effectively represents the thermal-oxidative decomposition of waste polyurethane.

Rates for reactions of substituted phenacyl bromides with imidazole and those of substituted imidazoles with phenacyl bromide were measured by an electric conductivity method. The rates were accelerated by electron-withdrawing substituents of phenacyl bromide and these reactions obeyed well both the linear free energy relationship and the isokinetic relationship. The relation between pKa's of substituted imidazoles and reaction constants fit the Bronsted rule. However, the case of 2-methylimidazole deviated far from this rule exerting steric hindrance. The reaction proceeded much faster in acetonitrile than in methanol and the observed ratio, k2 (acetonitrile)/k2 (methanol), was considerably larger than the value calculated from the Kirkwood equation.

Rates and equilibriurn of complex formation between $Ni^{2+}$ and D-penicillamine have been investigated in aqueous solutions. Kinetic study on the complex formation were performed in the pH range of 8∼9 by the use of pressure-jump technique. D-Penicillamine coordinates to the nickel(II) ion utilizing sulfur and nitrogen as donor atoms in the high pH condition (pH 9.2). However, in the pH range of 8.25∼9.07, the stepwise stability constant becomes drastically reduced and the undissociated mercapto group does not participate in bonding. The rate-determining step of the complexation reaction is found to be the release of a water molecule from the inner-coordination sphere of $Ni^{2+}$ ion.

Kinetic study of halide exchange for dimethylsulfamoyl chloride in dry acetone by using radioisotopic halide ions has been carried out at two temperatures. The result of the order of nucleophilicity, as compared with benzenesulfonyl chloride, shows a similar tendency but reaction rate is slower, more than $10^{-2}$times, than benzenesulfonyl chloride. The activation parameter, ${\Delta}H^{\neq}\;and\;{\Delta}S^{\neq}$ decrease in sequence $Cl^-\;>\;Br^-\;>\;I^-$ in dimethylsulfamoyl chloride but it is the reverse order found for benzenesulfonyl chloride. The results are interpreted with bond-breaking, bond-formation, and electronic requirments, and in the light of HSAB Principle.

Product yields were determined for the reaction of styrene with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) in CH$_2$Cl$_2$ with various substituted manganese porphyrin complexes as catalysts. In the presence of the electron withdrawing group and ortho-substituted manganese porphyrin complexes, reaction rate and epoxide selectivity are increased. Also reaction rate and epoxide selectivity are largely increased by the presence of imidazole which behaves as axial ligand of the manganese porphyrin complexes. By the kinetic study with Michealis-Menten equation, the factor significantly affected to catalytic ability is $K_m$ value. A large binding affinity consists with the low $K_m$. With theoretical analysis by EHMO calculation, the results are in good agreement with experimental data.

A steady-state kinetic study on a dye-coupled cytoplasmic polyol dehydrogenase from G. melanogenus was carried by the initial velocity measurements in the direction of the polyol oxidation and the product inhibition by D-fructose. For the initial rate experiments, D-mannitol and D-sorbitol were employed as the specific polyol substrates and 2,6-dichlorophenolin-dophenol (DPIP) as the specific cofactor substrate for the enzyme. When the polyol and DPIP were examined by varying one of substrates and by fixing the second, the corresponding reciprocal plots showed the typical parallel pattern. This suggests that the enzyme from G. melanogenus proceeds by a Ping Pong Bi-Bi mechanism in which the polyol may account as the first reactant-in, and the ketose formed as the first product-out, respectively. The product inhibition patterns obtained by D-fructose (one no-inhibition, one non-competitive, and two competitive) may also provide an additional conformatory evidence for the above mechanism. Based on the kinetic parameters obtained, it was also suggested that the rate-limiting step in the direction of polyol oxidation is associated with the release of the ketose from the Enzyme${\cdot}$Polyol complex.

Kinetic of substitution of dibenzoylmethanate (dbm) for one acetylacetonate (acac) in VO (acac)$_2$ have been studied in various solvents by spectrophotometry. Under the condition [VO (acac)$_2$] 》[Hdbm], the rate law for the substitution reaction is expressed as, rate = k$_2$K[VO(acac)$_2$] [Hdbm] / (1 ＋ K[VO(acac)$_2$]) where K = [VO (acac)$_2$dbmH] / [VO(acac)$_2$][Hdbm] and the rate constant k$_2$ corresponds to that of proton transfer from coordinated Hdbm to leaving acac- in VO(acac)$_2$dbmH.

The rate constants for the hydrolysis of styryldiphossphine oxide(SDPO) were deter-mined by ultraviolet visible spectrophotometric method and rate equation which can be applied over wide pH ranges was obtained. On the basis of pH-rate profile, hydrolysis product analysis, general base catalysis and substituent effect, a plausible hydrolysis mechanism is proposed : Below pH 4.5, the hydrolysis reaction is pro-ceeded by the attack of water to carbocation after protonaticentration of hydroxide ion.
