The electrochemical reduction of (2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-(2-phenyl-1H-quinolin-4-ylidene)-amine was investigated in 0.1 M tetrabutylammoniumbromide in N,N-dimethylformamide at glassy carbon electrode (GCE) using the technique of cyclic voltammetry at the room temperature (290 K). The reduction of imines occurs in two successive steps, involving one electron in each. In this medium the first peak was observed at about -0.793 V (vs Ag/$Ag^+$) at the glassy carbon electrode surface, which is more stable and well defined as compared to the second peak. The diffusion coefficient ($D_0$) of imine in the investigated solvent media has been calculated using the modified Randles-Sevcik equation. The electron transfer coefficient ($\alpha$) of the reactant species has also been calculated.

Pentadentate Schiff base molybdenum(Ⅴ) complexes such as [Mo(Ⅴ)O(Sal-DET)(NCS)] and [Mo(Ⅴ)O(Sal-DPT)(NCS)] were synthesized by Sabat method. The structure of these complexes were identified by elemental analysis, spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis(T.G.A.). It was found that the mole ratio of Schiff base ligand to the complexes was found to be 1 : 1. The redox processes of the complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetric and differential pulse polarographic technique in nonaqueous solvent containing 0. 1 M tetraethyl ammonium perchlorate(TEAP) as supporting electrolyte at glassy carbon electrode. It was found that diffusion controlled reduction processes of four steps with one electron were 2Mo(Ⅴ)$\rightleftarrow^{e-}$ Mo(Ⅴ)Mo(Ⅳ) $\longrightarrow^{e-}$ 2Mo(Ⅳ), Mo(Ⅳ) $\longrightarrow^{e-}$ Mo(Ⅲ) $\longrightarrow^{e-}$ Mo(Ⅱ)

Triton X-100 enhances to a marked extent the analytical sensitivity of the nitrobluetetrazolium (NBT) reduction method for the assay of superoxide$(O^-_{\.{^.2}})$ production. In the present work, it was attempted to elucidate the physicochemical nature of this Triton X-100 effect, focusing on not only the surfactant-caused stabilization of the water-insoluble formazan colloid but also the kinetic competition between the $NBT-O^-_{\.{^.2}}$ reaction and the autodisproportionation of concommitantly occuring in aqueous media. The measurements of formazan and $H_2O_2$ formed in a number of reaction systems, as prepared by vortex-mixing potassium superoxide dissolved in an aprotic solvent with aqueous solutions of NBT, revealed that Triton X-100 exerts its effect both through preventing formazan colloid from aggregation and thereby increasing the formazan absorbance and through suppressing the autodisproportionation reaction of $O^-_{\.{^.2}}$. It also turned out that the relative shares of the colloid stabilization effect and the kinetic effect in the contribution to the sensitivity amplification of the NBT method are dependent upon the reaction conditions, particulary the molar concentration ratio of NBT to $O^-_{\.{^.2}}$ in the reaction systems.

We propose an effective and environmentally friendly dry stripping method using a supercritical carbon dioxide ($SCCO_2$) system modified by a single and multiple cosolvents to remove ion-implanted photoresist and residue from a wafer surface at three different temperatures (97, 148, $200^{\circ}C$) and pressures (200, 300, 400 bar). After high dose of ion implantation the photoresist was not easily removed by using pure $SCCO_2$, but swollen. The $SCCO_2$ system modified by single cosolvents and multiple cosolvents mixed with aprotic solvents could not effectively remove the heavy organics, but swell them. However, the $SCCO_2$ system modified with multiple cosolvent (5%, v/v) composed of DMSO and DIW showed high removal efficiency for ion-implanted photoresists at $97^{\circ}C$ and 200 bar for 30 min (about 80%). In this study it has been shown that the dry stripping method using $SCCO_2$ system modified with multiple cosolvents could replace either plasma ashing or acid and solvent wet bench method and dramatically reduce accompanied chemical usage and disposal.

It is generated in DMF by activated catalysts of superoxo cobalt(III) complex, such as [Co(III)(Schiff base)(L)]O$_2$ (Schiff base; SED, SOPD and o-BSDT, L; DMF and Py) which mole ratio of oxygen to metal is 1:1 that oxidation major product of 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol by homogeneous oxidatve catalysts of oxygen adducted tetradentate Schiff base cobalt(III) is 2,6-ditert-butylbenzoquinone (BQ). And oxidation product of 3,3',5,5'-tetra-tert-butyldiphenoquinone (DPQ) is generated by activated catalysts such as $\mu$-peroxo cobalt(III) complex; $[Co(III)(SND)(L)]_2$$O_2$ (L; DMF and Py) which mole ratio of oxygen to metal is 1:2. It is difficult to identify these homogeneous activated catalysts such as superoxo and $\mu$-peroxo cobalt(III) complexes in DMF and DMSO solvents. But we can identify by P.V.T method of the oxygen absorption in pyridine solvent and by the reduction process occurred to four steps including prewave of O$_2$- in 1:1 oxygen adducted superoxo cobalt(III) complexes and three steps not including prewave of O$_2$- in 1:2 oxygen adducted $\mu$-peroxo cobalt(III) complexes by the cyclic voltammetry with glassy carbon electrode in 0.1 M TEAP as supporting electrolyte solutidn.
