The kinetic study on the bromine-exchange reaction of antimony tribromide with t-butyl bromide in nitrobenzene or 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene has been carried out, using Br-82 labelled antimony tribromide. The results show that the exchange reaction is first order with respect to t-butyl bromide and 1.5th order with respect to antimony tribromide. It is assumed that the 1.5th order indicates the coexistance of first- and second-order kinetics. Reaction mechanisms for the exchange reaction are proposed.

Stepwise dechlorination of 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene was observed at a glassy carbon electrode in dimethylformamide containing 0.1 M tetraethylammonium perchlorate. Especially, dechlorination to dichlorobenzene and further to monochlorobenzene or benzene was successfully demonstrated with a porous reticulated vitreous carbon electrode. Electrochemical dechlorination of polychlorobenzenes employing a flow cell with a reticulated vitreous carbon working electrode is also described. Preliminary experiments with a flow cell showed that dechlorination of trichlorobenzene to dichlorobenzene was partially completed while dechlorination to benzene or monochlorobenzene was not successful, suggesting that a flow rate and electrolysis time should be further optimized for the complete electrolysis.

The rate of the bromine-exchange reaction between gallium bromide and n-butyl bromide in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene and in nitrobenzene was measured at 19, 25 and 40$^{\circ}C$., using n-butyl bromide labelled with Br-82. The results indicated that the exchange reaction was second order with respect to gallium bromide and first order with respect to n-butyl bromide. The third-order rate constant determined at $19^{\circ}C.$ is 1.15{\times}10^{-4} l^2{\cdot}mole^{-2}{\cdot}sec^{-1}$ in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene and $4.21{\times}10^{-4} l^2·$$mole^{-2}{\cdot}sec^{-1}$ in nitrobenzene. The activation energy, the enthalpy of activation and the entropy of activation for the exchange reaction were also determined.

The rate of the bromine-exchange reaction of antimony tribromide with benzyl bromide in nitrobenzene or 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene has been measured, using Br-82 labelled antimony tribromide. The result of the study indicates that the exchange reaction is first order with respect to benzyl bromide, and either second or first order with respect to antimony tribromide depending on its concentrations. The second-order kinetics with respect to antimony tribromide have been observed at relatively high $[SbBr_3]$ concentrations, and the first-order kinetics at lower $[SbBr_3]$ concentrations. Reaction mechanisms are proposed for the exchange reaction.

Surface seawater was sampled from 20 stations in Youngil Bay, Korea in November 2000. The samples were analyzed for eight chlorobenzenes(CBs) out of a total of 12 in the congener series using a gas chromatography coupled to a mass spectrometer detector(GC/MSD). The total CB levels varied from 1.3 to 6.1 ng/L with a mean of 4.0 ng/L. Trichlorobenzene groups (sum of 1,3,5-, 1,2,4-, and 1,2,3-trichlorobenzene) were the predominant class among the four congener groups, while tetrachlorobenzenes(sum of 1,2,3,5-, 1,2,4,5-, and 1,2,3,4- tetrachlorobenzene) and pentachlorobenzene showed a low presence. The total CB levels exhibited similar patterns for all the stations. A significant positive correlation was observed between the individual CB compounds in the particulate samples, while the dissolved samples revealed a strong correlation between the heavier molecular weight CBs.

Twenty organic chemical substances, tetrachloroethylene, toluene, ethylbenzene, p-xylene, m-xylene, isopropyl benzene, stylene, bromobenzene, 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, 2-chlorotoluene 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, p-isopropyltoluene, 4-chlorotoluene, n-butylbenzene, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene, naphthalene, tert-butylbenzene, sec-butylbenzene, phenol, isopropyl benzene hydroperoxide were isolated from untreated and treated wastewater collected at 76 companys of 9 types industry in the basin of Young San River. Their organic compounds were elucidated by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) and by comparison with each standard reagents. Especially, phenol compound is detected from effluent water but not detected from plant wastewater in the chemical industry. Heavy metal, which are Cr, Mn, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb, As, Al and Fe, are contained in the plant wastewater of all industry, Fe, Al of them is more detected than the other metals in plant wastewater. Cr, Cd, Pb, As is contained much in plant wastewater of electricity and electron, metal molding industry. Nine metals is nearely treated when plant wastewater is treated, and then the concentration of each other metals is detected below water quality standard or not detected by using AA.

The experimental rabbits were infested with 300 of metacercariae of Clonorchis sinensis. The therapeutic effects of following 6 kinds of hexachlorophene derivatives on infected rabbits were compared with those of hexachlorophene and 2,2-methylenebis (3,4,6-trichlorophenoxy acetic acid) (MTPA). The drugs were medicated by mouth for 7 days after infection of 40 days, and the following results were obtained. 1) The therapeutic effects of following four hexachlorophene derivatives are less potant than those of hexachlorophene and MTPA. 2) Among hexachlorophene derivatives, 2,2-methylenebis (3,4,6-trichlorophenoxy benzoylate) and 2,2-methylenebis (3,4,6-trichlorophenoxy ${\beta}-ethly$ alcohol) are more effective than 1,1-dihydroxy ethyl ether, 2,2-methylenebis (3,4,6-trichlorobenzene) (Table 1).

Eight chlorobenzenes (out of a total of 12 in the congener series) were measured in the sediments from 21 stations in the southeastern coastal areas of Korea. The levels of total chlorobenzene isomers varied between 2.08 and 12.45 ng/g dry weight. The highest contents of total chlorobenzenes (CBs) were found in the sediments from Pohang coast. Trichloro­benzenes (the sum of 1,3,5-, 1,2,4- and 1,2,3-trichlorobenzene) were dominant classes among four congeners, whereas tetrachlorobenzenes (the sum of 1,2,3,5-, 1,2,4,5- and 1,2,3,4-tetra­chlorobenzene) and pentachlorobenzene were low levels. The contributions of total CBs showed similar patterns for all stations with positive significant correlation within CBs species. It means that CBs contamination in the southeastern coasts of Korea came from the similar source.

Marine sediments and bivalves were sampled at 20 stations from coastal regions of Korea, to investigate the levels and patterns of some chlorobenzene isomers. Total chlorobenzenes were in the range of 0.32-3.55 ng/g dry weight in marine sediments and 0.26-0.84 ng/g wet weight in bivalves. Hexachlorobenzene levels in marine sediments and bivalves were lower thar or comparable to those levels of reported in other countries. Isomeric patterns of some chlorobenzenes in marine sediments and bivalves were slightly different. However, the pre-dominant isomer in marine sediments and bivalves was 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene. Hexachlorobenzene contribution to total concentrations was higher in sediments than in bivalves.

A total four-step synthetic process of high quality optical brightening agent 4,4'-bis(2-benzoxazolyl)stilbene (BBS) from methyl 4-formylbenzoate (MFB) was developed with 73% total yield. MFB is one of the main by-products in dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) production process. Our process involves the formation of 4,4'-stilbenedicarboxylate (2) obtained from the reaction of an aldehyde in MFB with ethyl 4-((diethoxyphosphoryl)methyl)benzoate (1) and the subsequent transformation to 4,4'-stilbenedicarbonyl chloride (3). In order to prepare benzoxazole ring in BBS, various solvents and catalysts were studied. The best solvent and catalyst were found to be 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene and boric acid, respectively suitable for mass production of BBS.
