Twenty four thiol-functionalized ionic liquids based on imidazolium cation, 1-(12-mercaptododecyl)-3-alkylimidazolium salts, have been synthesized, and utilized to investigate the effects of alkyl-chain length and anion on the wettability of Au surfaces on the basis of self-assembled monolayers presenting [(CnSAMIM)X], where n = 1-6, X = Br, $BF_4$, $PF_4$ and $NTf_2$. Water wettabilities of the surfaces were measured as a water contact angle by contact angle goniometry. It was found that water wettability of the Au surfaces coated with imidazolium ions was largely dependent not only on counter anions but also on the length of alkyl chains. In the case of SAMs of N-alkylimidazolium ions having short length of N-alkyl chain (C1-$C_4$), anions played great role in determining water wettability of the surfaces.

The mobility of sulfate in soils defends on several factors including redox potential, soil mineralogy, pH, and the presence of other anions that compete for sorption sites with sulfate. The proposed model of adsorption mechanism for sulfate postulated that reaction is between anions in solution and charged surfaces of soil particles. With appropriate choice of parameters obtained from the adsorption-desorption experiments, the equation of transport model adapt an empirical approach, capable of handling most general equilibrium adsorption isotherms, suitable for multispecies systems.

A simple colorimetric anion chemosensor based on 2-amino-6-nitrobenzothiazole was synthesized. The addition of tetrabutylammonium (TBA) salts of $F^-,\;{CH_3COO}^-,\;and\;{H_2PO_4}^-$ to the solution of receptor 3 caused dramatic and clearly observable color changes from light to dark yellow due to the deprotonation process which is totally different from previously reported receptors based on the same motif. According to the basicity of the anions, the sensitivity of receptor 3 towards various anions decreased in the following order: ${CH_3COO}^-\;>\;F^-\;>\;{H_2PO_4}^-$.

The title compound, $[Co(H_2O)_6](CH_3C_6H_4SO_3)_2$, has been prepared and characterized by X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure of the compound demonstrates a layered material constituted by hexaaquacobalt (II) cations and p-toluenesulfonate anions. Geometrical environment of the cobalt atom is octahedrally coordinated by water molecules. The p-toluenesulfonate anions are arranged with the sulfonate groups turned toward opposite side of the layer, alternately. The layered structure is stabilized by the hydrogen bondings between the ligated water molecules and the anionic sulfonate oxygen atoms.

The quantitative trace analysis of ions could be deteriorated by filter papers because of the effect of adsorption. Generally the adsorption of anions on filter paper did not occurred. Instead, $Cl^-$ and $NO{_3}^-$ ions were extracted from the filter papers. However, most metal ions were adsorbed on the filter papers by the formation of hydroxide in neutral solution. The adsorption of metal ions except $Ag^+$ ion could be avoided depend on the acid concentrations.

$(TMTSF)_2BF_4$ containing non-centrosymmetric anions is well known to exhibit a metal insulator transition around 37 K by ordering of the anions with a $q_2$=(1/2, 1/2, 1/2) wave vector. We established pressure-temperature phase diagram of the $(TMTSF)_2BF_4$ compound and showed that it can belong to the general phase diagram of the $(TMTSF)_2X$ family. Application of hydrostatic pressure decreases the anion ordering transition temperature and the superconducting state is finally stabilized below 3.77 K under 7.7 kbar. Magnetoresistance measurement on the $(TMTSF)_2BF_4$ under 7.8 kbar is performed but neither the field-induced spin-density-wave state nor the rapid oscillation is observed up to 9 T.

Theoretical studies of the sodium cation binding and the isotope hydration effects on the static model compound B-DNA have been qualitatively elucidated by using empirical potential energy functions. In the first place, the sodium cations bound to phosphate anions and their hydration scheme have been optimized and have given a reasonable agreement with other theoretical results and experimental studies. In the second stage, the isotope effect on the hydration through the substitution of $D_2O\;for\;H_2O$ has been carried out by the same procedure. The stabilization of B-DNA has been explained and compared in terms of the sodium cation binding to phosphate anions and its hydration in both cases of $H_2O\;and\;D_2O$.

Eu(Ⅲ) exhibits one electron-transfer reduction at E$_{1/2}$ =-0.617 V vs. Ag/AgCl and the hypersensitive peak at 618 nm corresponding to $^5D_0$ ${\leftrightarro}$ $^7F_2$ transition in 0.10 M LiClO$_4$ aqueous solutions. Upon the addition of carboxylate or sulfonate anions to the Eu(Ⅲ) aqueous solutions, the reduction potential shifts negatively and the reduction current decreases because of the complex formation between Eu(Ⅲ) ions and the anions. However, for the case of carboxylate anion (acetate or propionate) the shift of reduction peak potential and the emission intensity at 618 nm are greater. The results are interpreted in terms of the differences in the formation constants and the hypersensitivity.

Conducting polypyrrole doped with iron (Ⅱ,Ⅲ) hexacyanate Fe$(CN)_6^{z-}$ ions was studied for its physical and electrochemical properties. The polymer exhibited two pairs of waves in the cyclic voltammogram, one for the reversible oxidation/reduction of the incorporated iron hexacyanate ions and the other for the near-reversible oxidation/reduction of the polypyrrole moiety. The exchange of ions incorporated in the polymer and other ions present in solutions were examined by following the decrease of the reversible redox peaks of Fe$(CN)_6^{z-}$, and by EDX analysis. The spin density of this highly conducting polymer as probed by ESR spectroscopy was extremely low compared to polypyrrole doped with common anions.

$^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR spectra for pyridine, ${\beta}$-and ${\gamma}$-picoline, pyrazine, and 4,4'-bipyridyl complexed with paramagnetic undecatungstocobalto(II)silicate and undecatungstonickelo(II)silicate anions are reported. For these complexes the ligand exchange is slow on the NMR time scale and the pure resonance lines have been observed at room temperature. The isotropic shifts in nickel complexes can be interpreted in terms of contact shifts by ${\sigma}$-electron delocalization. Both contact and pseudocontact shifts contribute to the isotropic shifts in cobalt complexes. The contact shifts, which are obtained by subtracting the pseudocontact shifts from the isotropic shifts, require both ${\sigma}$-and ${\pi}$-electron delocalization from the cobalt ion. Slow ligand exchange has also allowed us to identify the species formed when bidentate ligands react with the heteropolyanions. Pyrazine forms a 1 : 1 complex, while 4,4'-bipyridyl forms both 1 : 1 and dumbbell-shaped 1 : 2 complexes.
