Stereospecific [2 + 2] cycloadducts are obtained as major products when trans-cinnamonitrile derivatives are irradiated with excess tetramethylethylene. The fluorescence quenching studies, weak exciplex fluorescence, and sensitization by benzophenone suggest that this stereospecific photochemical cycloaddition reaction involves singlet exciplex intermediate formed between cinnamonitrile derivatives and tetramethylethylene.

The photoacid generation efficiency of four N-hydroxyphthalimide sulfonate derivatives was studied by photo-crosslinking reaction of poly(glycidyl methacrylate) in solid film state. The relative photoacid generation efficiency was increased in the order of N-hydroxyphthalimide methanesulfonate > -toluenesulfonate > -nitrobenzenesulfonate > -dinitrobenzensulfonate, and the reaction was efficiently sensitized by benzophenone suggesting that this photoreactions is likely to proceed through its triplet excited state.

Inhibition of the protein-modifying enzyme farnesyltransferase is considered as a major emerging strategy in cancer therapy because of the involvement of farnesylated proteins in oncogensis. We studied the structure-activity relationship of a novel class of CAAX-peptidomimetic farnesyltransferase inhibitors based on the benzophenone scaffold. FlexX docking of inhibitors confirmed reasonable fit of the molecule into the peptide binding site of farnesyltransferase. We also performed a virtual screening with LeadQuest chemical library databases to idenfity novel inhibitors of farnesyltransferase. (omitted)

Seven 2, 3-diphenyl-5-methoxyindole derivatives were synthesized. The effect of structural variation of these molecules on biological activities was examined. None of the tested compounds was found to be toxic up 5 gm/Kg body weight. Four compounds demonstrated smooth muscle relaxant effects and one showed a persistent hypotensive effect. Only the parent compound, 2, 3-diphenyl-5-methoxyindole, showed a significant analgesic effect.

Polyimides have been investigated extensively and used widely over the past three decades because of their high performance properties such as excellent thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. Polyimides are difficult to be processed because of the aromatic moieties, imide group, and insoluble nature in most organic solvents. The soluble polyimides were synthesized from 2,2,-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane (BAPAF) and 3,3,-diamino-4,4-dihydroxybyphenyl (HAB) as aromatic diamines and 4,4-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic dianhydride (6FDA), pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA), 4,4-oxydiphthalic dianhydride (OPDA), 3,3,4,4-benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) and 3,3,4,4-diphenylsulfone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (DSDA) as aromatic dianhydrides. The polyimides were characterized by NMR, FR-IR, TGA and the dielectric constant of the obtained polyimides was calculated from storage of electro-capacity. A novel photosensitive polyimide was synthesized by the reaction of polyimide, containing hydroxyl group and methacryloyl chloride using triethylamine. The good micro-pattern was obtained with photosensitive polyimide from the photolithographic technique.

A gas chromatography/mass spectrometric assay method was developed for the simultaneous determination of neutral and bacis twenty-five disruptors $(ED_S)$ in frog and fish. Afther homogenization and sonication of 5 g of sample, purification was achieves in one step with a solid phase extraction procedure using silica gelflorisl. Eluton was performed with 50mL of acetone : n-hexane (1 : 9) solution. The eluate was concentrated to approximately 10uL and dissolves with 100 uL of hexane and analyzed by GC-MS (SIM). The peaks had good chromatographic properties and the extraction of these compounds from sample also gave relatively high recoveries with small variatoins. Detection limits were 0.1 ng/g for 4-nitrotoluene, benzophenone, hexachlorobenzene, atrazine, malathion, o,p-DDT, o,p-DDT and permethrin, and 0.2 ng/g for heptachlor epoxide, γ-chlordane, α-chlordane, p,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDD, cypermethrin and fenvalerate, and 0.3 ng/g for trifluralin, metribuzin, alachlor, dieldrin and p,p'-DDT, and 0.5 ng/g for heptachlor, aldrin and parathion, and 0.7 ng/g for endrin, and 0.8 ng/g for nitrofen. The recoveries were between 33 and 109%. The method was used to analyze twenty-five frogs and forty-six fishes fishes samples caught from various regions in Korea. Benzophenone was detected at concentration of up to 17.2 ng/g in frog or fish. Heptachlor, aldrin, γ-chlordane, p,p'-DDE, p,p'-DDD, endrin and o,p-DDD were detected at concentrations of 0.7-12.5 ng/g in frog or fish. Also significant leveles of dieldrin (up to 22.5 ng/g) were observed. The developed method may be valuable to be used to the national monitoring project of EDS in biota samples.

Diphenylmethane (pKa=33.4), which is difficult to be oxidized in normal oxidation conditions, was oxidized to produce benzophenone at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure by using phase transfer catalysts and solid potassium tert-butoxide as base. Quaternary salt such as benzyltriethylammonium chloride, tetrabutyl ammonium bisulfate, tetrabutylphosponium chloride, are ineffective catalysts for this reaction, but 18-crown-6 and polyethylene glycols showed catalytic activity. The conversion of diphenylmethane was increased with increasing chain length of PEG molecules when they are used as phase transfer catalysts both in equal molar and equal weight basis. The conversion of diphenylmethane was increased with the agitation speed, and aprotic solvent like DMF showed higher reaction rate compared with benzene.

Polyamic acids, precursor polymers of polyimides have been obtained by the solution polycondensation of benzophenone tetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) with 4, 4'-diamino diphenyl methane (MDA) and/or 3, 3'-dimethyl benzidine (OTB). The reaction was carried in two solvent systems such as m-cresol and m-cresol/xylene mixture. The results of TGA analysis showed that the polyimide films had good thermal stability with the initial decomposition temperature ranging from $540^{\circ}$ to $590^{\circ}$. According to DSC analysis of polymers, the glass transition temperature was over $340^{\circ}$. Polyimide film samples, showed good mechanical and electrical properties, had over $16Kg/mm^2$ of tensile strength and about 200 KV/mm of dielectric breakdown voltage. The properties of the copolymer from MAD/OTB were better than those of the homopolymer from MDA. And the polymer synthesized in m-cresol had lower properties than that obtained in m-cresol/xylene.
