A simple analytical method to quantify formaldehyde in water at lower levels (${\mu}g/L$) was developed using a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and acetylacetone as a derivative reagent. Unlike conventional methods, no extraction and/or concentration were required. The derivative reagent was added into samples and reacted for 30 minutes at $80^{\circ}C$ prior to the analysis of formaldehyde using HPLC. The method detection limit and the limit of quantification for this method were 1.6 and $5.0{\mu}g/L$, respectively. This method also achieved high precision (0.6-3.0%) and accuracy (91.6-106.3%). The recovery rates for various environmental samples ranged from 92.0 to 115.2%.

The approximate rate and stoichiometry of the reaction of excess Thexylbromoborane-methyl sulfide, $ThxBHBr{\cdot}SMe_2,$ with selected organic compounds containing representative functional groups under standardized conditions (methylene chloride, $0^{\circ}C)$ were studied in order to characterize the reducing characteristics of the reagent for selective reductions. The selectivity of the reagent was also compared to the selectivity of thexylchloroborane-methyl sulfide. Thexylbromoborane appears to be a much milder and hence more selective reducing agent than thexylchloroborane. The reagent tolerates many organic functionalities. Thus, the reagent shows very little reactivity or no reactivity toward acid chlorides, esters, epoxides, amides, nitro compounds including simple olefins. However, this reagent can reduce aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, nitriles, and sulfoxides. Especially the reagent reduces carboxylic acids including ${\alpha},{\beta}$ -unsaturated ones and nitriles to the corresponding aldehydes. In addition to that, thexylbromoborane shows good stereoselectivity toward cyclic ketones, much better than the chloro-derivative.

A water-soluble chromogenic reagent, N,N'-oxalylbis(2-pyridyl-3'-sulphobenzoylhydrazone) has been synthesized. Spectrophotometric and first-and second-derivative spectrophotometric methods for the determination of copper with the reagent have been developed. Determination has been performed by measuring the absorbance and the first-and second-derivative values of the copper complexes in aqueous solutions (pH 1.89) at 379, 395, 363 and 421 nm, respectively. The method allows the determination of 0.12-1.20 ${\mu}g$ /ml of copper and has been applied to the analysis of aluminium alloy samples. The best results have been obtained from the measurements of the second-derivative values at 421 nm.

For metabolic study of pinusolide, a naturally occurring platelet activating factor antagonist, a synthetic method for preparation of radiolabeled pinusolide was studied. Pinusolide was first oxidized with $OsO_4/NaIO_4 $to 17-nor-8-oxo compound (2), which was subsequently converted to pinusolide by treatment with the Lombardo reagent $(Zn/CH_2Br_2/TiCI_4)$. The Wittily reaction was unsuccessful in the latter carbonyl methylenation of 2.

We have been studing sensitive non-enzymatic chemiluminescence (CL) imaging methods for the detection of DNA. For one of our methods, a unique chemical derivatization reagent. 3'. 4', 5'-trimethoxyphenylglyoxal (TMPG) was utilized. This reagent reacted specifically with guanine bases in nucleic acids to quickly produce a chemiluminescent derivative under mild reaction conditions. (omitted)

A rapid, simple and sensitive spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of cobalt(II) using 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy benzaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (HMBATSC) as a analytical reagent. The metal ion in aqueous medium forms a brown coloured complex with HMBATSC at pH 6.0. The complex has two absorption maxima at 375 nm and 390 nm. At 375 nm, the reagent shows considerable absorbance, while at 390 nm the reagent does not shows appreciable absorbance. Hence, analytical studies were carried out at 390 nm. Beer's law is obeyed in the range of 0.059-2.357 μg ml-1 of Co(II). The molar absorptivity and Sandall's sensitivity of the method are 2.74×104 l mol-1 cm-1 and 0.0024 μg cm-2 respectively. The interference of various diverse ions has been studied. The complex has 1:2 [Co(II)- HMBATSC] stoichiometry. A method for the determination of cobalt(II) by second order derivative spectrophotometry has also been proposed. The proposed methods were applied for the determination of cobalt(II) in alloy steels, vitamin B12 and in some biological samples.

The sensitive detection of free fatty acids was investigated by using H$_{2}$O$_{2}$-bis(2,4,6-trichlorophenyl) oxalate chemiluminescence system after monodansyl cadaverine labeling. Because dansvl moiety is well excited by this chemiluminescence system, monodansyl cadaverine was a prominent reagent to this system for the determination of free fatty acids. The cluent of 50mM tris-HCI buffer (pH 7.7)-acetonitrile (1:4, v/v) was run through TSK gel ODS 80 TM column. The reagent solutions were mixed with the eluent containing the monodansyl cadaverine derivative of fatty acids from the column. By this system, linolic acid was detected 50 fmol by injected amount.

Large amount of formaldehyde could be released inevitably during the flame-retardant (FR) treatments or from the finished fabrics using Provatex reagent and Proban polymers which have been used as durable FRs for cotton. A water-soluble cyclophosphazene derivative was synthesized as an ecofriendly phosphorus-based FR for cotton fibers. Dichloro tetrakis{N-[3-(Dimethylamino)propyl]methacrylamido} cyclcophosphazene (DCTDCP) was synthesized through the substiutution reaction of Hexachloro cyclophosphazene and N-[3-(Dimethylamino)propyl] methacrylamide at a mole ratio of 1 : 4, which can be cured dually by both alkaline treatment and UV irradiation. More crosslinked networks were produced through the addition of Triacryloyl hexahydrotriazine and Acrylamide as a UV-curable crosslinker and a comonomer respectively. Both flame retardancy and washing durability of the FR cotton were improved synergistically. The durability improvement may be caused by the covalent bond formation of the FR with cellulose and the high degree of polymerization of DCTDCP, which can be verified by the pyrolysis and combustion behaviors analyzed by LOI, TGA, and microcalorimeter.

A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of aloesin in plasma was developed. After solid-phase extraction from plasma and derivatization of aloesin and compound AD-1, which was prepared from aloesin as a internal standard, with 9-anthroylnitrile in the presence of quinuclidine, the derivatives were separated on a Inertsil ODS-3 column using acetonitrile/methanol/water (3:1:6) as a mobile phase, and detected fluorimetrically at 460nm with excitation at 360nm. The detection limit of aloesin was 3.2ng/ml in plasma (S/N=3).

To investigate the inhibitory activity of 2-hydroxy-3-amino-4-phenylbutyrate-harboring aminopeptidase N inhibitors, p-nitro-AHPA-peptide derivatives (1 and 2) and an AHPA-peptide derivative (3) were synthesized by chain elongation from C-terminal end using DCC/HOBt as a coupling reagent. The peptides $1{\sim}3$ exerted strong inhibitory activities against aminopeptidase N with $IC_{50}$ values of 1.8, 7.3 and $24.0\;{\mu}g/ml$, respectively, and cytotoxicity on cancer cell lines in vitro.
