  • Direct irradiation of carbonyl compounds such as some aldehydes, ketones and anthraquinone in N,N-dimethylamiline(DMA), without using other solvents, gave $\beta$-hydroxyamines as the major products. Irradiation of anthrone and DMA in methanol afforded ${\gamma}$-hydroxyamine. The structure of the photoproduct was confirmed by treatment with an acid to give a bicyclic compound.

  • Acrolein (ACR) is a well-known carbonyl toxin produced by lipid peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids, which is involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). In Alzheimer's brain, ACR was found to be elevated in hippocampus and temporal cortex where oxidative stress is high. In this study, we evaluated oxidative modification of cytochrome c occurring after incubation with ACR. When cytochrome c was incubated with ACR, protein aggregation increased in a dose-dependent manner. The formation of carbonyl compounds and the release of iron were obtained in ACR-treated cytochrome c. Reactive oxygen species scavengers and iron specific chelator inhibited the ACR-mediated cytochrome c modification and carbonyl compound formation. Our data demonstrate that oxidative damage of cytochrome c by ACR might induce disruption of cyotochrome c structure and iron mishandling as a contributing factor to the pathology of AD.

  • The new MPV-type reagents, B-acetoxydiisopinocampheylborane ($Ipc _2$BOAc) and B-trifluoroacetoxydiisopinocampheylborane $(Ipc _2BO _2CCF _3)$, have been prepared and their reducing characteristics in the reduction of carbonyl compound have been examined in order to find out a new reducing system with unique applicability in organic synthesis. In general, the reactivity of $Ipc _2BO _2CCF _3$ appears to be stronger than that of $Ipc _2$BOAc, presumably due to the acidity increase by the electron-withdrawing fluorine-substituent. Both reagents show an excellent selectivity in 1,2-reduction of $\alpha,\beta$-unsaturatedcarbonyl compounds and in competitive reduction between structurally different carbonyl compounds. In addition, $Ipc _2BO _2CCF _3$ shows interesting features in the stereoreduction of cyclic ketones.

  • This study measured indoor and outdoor levels of hydrocarbon volatile organic compounds (VOCs), such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene isomers (collectively referred to as BTEX), as well as 13 carbonyl compounds, at 20 homes in Seoul, South Korea. Along with the sampling of BTEX and carbonyls, indoor concentrations of the air pollutants nitrogen oxide (NO) and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) were also measured at each home. These measurements were used to understand the characteristics of BTEX and carbonyls by calculating the various ratios and correlation coefficients between measured contaminant levels. We found that carbonyls were mostly originated from indoor sources, while BTEX were originated from both indoor and outdoor sources. A high correlation between indoor levels of NO and BTEX indicated that traffic emissions were also an important sources of BTEX.

  • Diosgenin (25 (R) - spirost-5-en-3$\beta$ -ol) was oxidized with 2,3-dichloro -5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone to form 25(R)-1,4,6-spirostatrien-3-one (1) as rigid cyclic $\alpha$,$\beta$-unsaturated carbonyl compound. This compound was reacted with $H_{2}O_{2}$, m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA), NaOCl in the presence with (R,R)- or (S,S)-Jacobsen catalyst, tert-butyl-hydroperoxide (TBHP) in Mo$(CO)_{6}$, and in VO $(acac)_{2}$ catalyst, respectively, 25(R) -1,4,6-spirostatrien -3-one (1) was reduced with $NaBH_{4}$ L-Selectride, $LiAIH_{4}$,$BH_{3}$ $\cdot$$(CH_{3})_{2}S$, Superhydride, Red-Al, and lithium tri-tert-butoxyaluminium hydride. And 25(R)-4,6-spirostadien-3$\beta$-ol (4) was treated with $H_{2}O_{2}$, mCPBA, TBHP in D - (-) - and L-(+)-diisopropyltar-trate and $Ti(OiPr)_{4}$ condition (Sharpless asymmetric epoxidation), TBHP in $Mo(CO)_{6}$, and in $VO(acac)_{2}$ catalyst, respectively.

  • MMPs (Matrix metalloproteinases) are enzymes playing an important role to turnover and remodel main protein compositions of extracellular matrix. MMP-2 and MMP-9 of MMPs having a catalytic domain which is apart from a hemopexin-like domain part, are different from the other MMPs pertaining fibronectinlike domain close to hemopexin-like domain. It was reported that the development of MMP-9 restrainer can prevent the transfer of liver cancer. In this study, MMP-9 restrainers were extracted and purified from Hovenia dulcis Thunberg. The each fractionary part was examined to investigate the inhibitory effect on MMPs. Three compounds, compound A and B eluted with ethyl acetate (EA) and compound C with methanol, were identified by $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR, GC/MS, and FT-IR. Compound A is considered as a kind of catechine type compound having a benzene ring substituted by hydroxyl and methoxyl groups. Compound B and C are nobiletin type compound pertaining a carbonyl group. Compound A, B and C showed 76%, 66% and 71% of inhibition effect on MMP-9 at 1.0% concentration, respectively. Compound A showed the best inhibition effect on MMP-9.

  • Conventional Doenjang, improved Doenjang prepared with Asp. oryzae were made to investigate the changes in the lipid content, and the carbonyl compounds during fermentation. Total lipid contents of conventional Doenjang increased slowly during fermentation, and that of the improved Doenjang increased at first, but showed sharp decrease at moment and then increased. Triglyceride contents of all samples decreased remarkedly during fermentation. Conversely, free acid contents increased. From the result of quantitative analysis of fatty acid by gas chromatography, saturated fatty acid ratio of total lipid in conventional Doenjang increased at early stages and then decreased, but unsaturated fatty acid ratio showed the reverse phenomenon. Saturated fatty acid in improved Doenjang increased during the fermentation but unsaturated fatty acid decreased by degrees. The concentration of total and monocarbonyl compounds in the fermented Doenjang were comparably higher than that found in raw Boenjang. Sensory evaluation revealed that off flavor had a negative effect on overall eating quality of Doenjang and total carbonyl content was related to the off flavor.

  • FTriphenylamine dye compound having diheteryl moiety was synthesized and its photoluminescent property was investigated. Organic luminescent materials have received great attentions due to potential application subjects onto full color image displays. In this context, the dye (III) for light emitting materials was synthesized using 2-(4-amino-2-hydroxyphenyl)benzoxazole (I) and 4,4'-diformyltriphenylamine (II). It is well known that the amino groups of compound (I) react with carbonyl groups, especially an aldehyde, to afford azomethine linkages. The dye shows bulish-green fluorescence property, which is anticipated for the light-emitting material for display devices. In this context, our aim is to synthesize diheteryl-substituted triphenylamine fluorescent dye as an emitting material. The spectroscopic characteristics and the fluorescent properties of this dye molecule were examined and determined.
