The complex formation of anti-inflamatory drug piroxicam (PX, 4-hydroxy-2-methyl-N-2--pridyl-2H-1,2-benzothiazine-3-carboxadiamide-1,1-dioxide) with transition metal ions Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) in methanol(MeOH)/water binary mixtures were studied by spectrophotometric method at 25$^{\circ}C$, constant pH = 5.0 and I = 0.1 M. The computer program SQUAD was used to extract the desired information from the spectral data. The outputs of the fitting processes were stability constants, standard deviations of the estimated stability constants, concentration distribution diagrams and spectral profiles of all species. The sequence of the stability constants of PX complexes with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) follow the Cu(II) > Co(II) > Ni(II) ${\approx}$ Zn(II) order. This may be due to different geometry tendencies of these metal ions. The acidity constants of the PX were also determined under above condition from its absorption spectra at different pH values. The computer program DATAN was used for determination of acidity constants of PX. The validity of the obtained acidity constants was checked by a well known computer program SPECFIT/32. The effects of the different parameters like solvent nature, cations characteristics on the stability and acidity constants were thoroughly discussed.

The investigation was cycle of aluminum of surface soil elements in dynamic grassland ecosystems at a steady state in a Zoysia japonica and a Miscanthus sinensis ecosystem in Mt. Kwanak, Korea. Average amounts of total storage for aluminum in Z japonica and M. sinensis grasslands were 8,426mg /$m^2$ and 7,849mg /$m^2$ respectively. Decay constants estimated on the base of experimental and mathematical model, were 0.04 in Z japonica grassland, and 0.08 in M. sinensis grassland. Half time to decay aluminum of litter soils were 17.33 years in Z japonica grass-land, and 8.66 years in Al. sinensis grassland. 95% decay times in Z japonica, and in M. sinensis grassland were 75.0 years and 35.0 years respectively. Needed times to lose almost all of elements in Z japonica and M. sinensis grassland were 125.0 years, and 62.50 years respectively. The metals were losed more rapidly in M. sinensis than in Z japonica grassland. The cycle of aluminum was investigated to be related with soil acidity. Key words: Cycle of aluminum, Zoysia japonica. Miscanthus sinensis, Mt. Kwanak, Decay constants, Soil acidity.

The new substituent constants $({\sigma}^{\ast})$ are calculated from the acidity constants $(pK^{\ast})$ of phenol derivatives in the excited state ($^1L_b$). These substituent constant are applied to the Hammett equations and found good correlation with $pK^{\ast}$ of 2,6-di-tert-butyl phenol, benzamide, nitroaniline, thiophenol, azobenzene, and benzoic acid derivatives. The correlation was much better than that of ground state substituent constants such as ${\sigma},\;{\sigma}^+$, and ${\sigma}^-$. From these results, the new substituent constants $({\sigma}^{\ast})$are proposed to be used for the linear free energy relationship in the $^1({\pi},{\pi}^{\ast})$ excited states of phenyl compounds.

The protonation equilibrium of 5-substituted 2-furaldehydes is investigated spectrophotometrically in aqueous sulfuric acid at $25^{\circ}C$ and the basicity constants(p$K_{BH+}$) of the substrates is calculated by means of the excess acidity method. The basicity constant of 5-metyl-2-furaldehyde having electron donating group is larger than that of 5- nitro-2-furaldehyde having electron withdrawing group. Difference between the basicity constants(p$K_{BH+}$) of these two compounds was about 3.25 pK unit. The m value which is the degree of solvation of the protonated substrate is similar to that of acetophenone having same protonation site. The dependence of p$K_{BH+}$ on m value shows good linear cor-relation.

The protonation parameters, dissociation constants ($pK_{BH^+}$) of conjugate acid, slope values (m, ${\phi}$ and $m^*$) and correlation coefficients (r) of hydroxamic acids were determined by Hammett acidity function method, Bunnett-Olsen method and excess acidity method in hydrochloric and perchloric acid solutions. Effect of acid concentration on partition and percentage protonation was also studied. $pK_{BH^+}$ values show that hydroxamic acids do not behave as Hammett bases, but hydroxamic acids behave as weak bases in strong acidic solutions. The values of $pK_{BH^+}$ obtained through Bunnett-Olsen method and excess acidity method were compared with the Hammett acidity function. ChemAxon's MarvinSketch 6.1.5 software was also used for determining $pK_a$, pI and microspecies distribution (%) of hydroxamic acids with pH. Hydrogen donor and acceptor values and logD were also obtained. The results show that N-p-chlorophenyl-4-bromobenzohydroxamic acid has the highest $pK_a$ and lowest logD values. On the contrary, N-phenyl-3,5-dinitrobenzohydroxamic acid has lowest the $pK_a$ and highest logD values.

A multiwavelength spectrophotometric titration method was applied to study protolytic constants of four water-soluble vitamins, folic acid(vitamin B9 or B0), thiamine(vitamin B1), riboflavin(vitamin B2) and pyridoxal (vitamin B6) in binary ethanol-water mixtures at 25oC and an ionic strength of 0.1M NaNO3. The protolytic equilibrium constants, spectral profiles, concentration diagrams and also the number of components has been calculated from the curve fitting of the pH-absorbance data with appropriate mass balance equations by an established factor analysis model. DATAN program was used for determination of acidity constant and SPECFIT program was used for calculation of standard deviations and partial correlation coefficients. A glass electrode calibration procedure based on the four parameter equation pH=α+SpcH+JH+[H+]+ JOH-Kw/[H+] based on the Gran,s plots was used to obtain pH-readings in the concentration scale (pcH). The effect of the solvent on the protolytic constants was discussed.

Solvent effects on nucleophilic substitution reaction of naphthalene sulfonyl chlorides with pyridine in protic and aprotic solvent have been studied by means of conductometry. Results showed that the rate constants increased with dielectric constants for protic solvents, while they decreased with dielectric constants for aprotic solvents, except for acetonitrile which has a higher dielectric constant but had also greater rate constant. The rate constants were shown to be more susceptible to polarity-polarizability parameter, , than to hydrogen bond donor acidity parameter, ${\alpha}$, indicating that the pulling effect of hydrogen bonding solvent.

The azacrown compound, 1,7-dioxa-4,10,13-triazacyclopentadecane-N,N',N"-tri(methyl-acetic acid)(N3O2-tri(methylacetic acid)) was synthesized by modified procedure of Krespan. Potentiometric method has been used to determine the protonation constants of N3O2-tri(methylacetic acid) and stability constants of complexes on the divalent transition metal ions (Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+) and trivalent metal ions (Ce3+, Eu3+, Gd3+, and Yb3+) with N3O2-tri(methylacetic acid). The stability constants for the complexes of the divalent transition metal ions studied in the present work with N3O2-tri(methylacetic acid) were 11.4 for Co2+, 11.63 for Ni2+, 13.51 for Cu2+, and 11.65 for Zn2+, respectively. Thus, the order of the stability constants for complexes on the transition metal ions with N3O2-tri(methylacetic acid) was shown Co2+ < Ni2+ < Cu2+ > Zn2+ as same as the order of Irving-Williams series. The stability constants of Ce3+, Eu3+, Gd3+, and Yb3+ trivalent lanthanide metal ion complexes of N3O2-tri(methylacetic acid) were, respectively, 11.26 for Ce3+, 11.56 for Eu3+, 11.49 for Gd3+, and 11.80 for Yb3+. The values of the stability constants on trivalent metal ions with the ligand are increasing according to increase atomic number, due to increase acidity. But the value of stability constant of Gd3+ ion is less than the value of Eu3+ ion. This disordered behavior is also reported by Moeller.

The protonation constants of the macrocyclic ligands, 1,4-dioxa-7,10,13,16-tetraaza-cyclooctadecane-N,N',N",N"'-tetra(acetic acid) [N-ac4[18]aneN402] and 1,4-dioxa-7,10,13,16-tetraazacyclooctadecane-1,4-dioxa-7,10,13,16-N,N',N",N"'-tetra(methylacetic acid) [N-meac4[18]aneN4O2] have been determined by using potentiometric method. The protonation constants of the N-ac4[18]aneN4O2 were 9.31 for logK1H, 8.94 for logK2H, 7.82 for logK3H, 4.48 for logK4H and 2.94 for logK5H. And the protonation constants of the N-meac4[18]aneN4O2 were 9.34 for logK1H, 9.13 for logK2H, 8.05 for logK3H, 5.86 for logK4H, and 3.55 for logK5H. The stability constants of complexes on the divalent transition ions (Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+) and tiivalent metal ions (Ce3+, Eu3+, Gd3+, and Yb3+) with ligands N-ac4[18]-aneN4O2 and N-meac4[18]aneN4O2 have been obtained from the potentiometric data with the aid of the BEST program. The three higher values of the protonation constants for synthesized macrocyclic ligands correspond to the protonation of nitrogen atoms, and the fourth and fifth values correspond to the protonation of the carboxylate groups for the N-ac4[18]aneN4O2 and N-meac4[18]aneN4O2. The meatal ion affinities of the two tetra-azamacrocyclic ligands with four pendant acetate donor groups or methylacetate donor groups are compared. The effects of the metal ions on the stabilities are discussed, and the trends in stability constants resulting from changing the macrocyclic ring with pendant donor groups and acidity of the metal ions.
