The autoxidation reaction of L-ascorbic acid(AsA), and, particularly, the oxidation rates of AsA in the presence of Fe(III) or Cu(II) ions were determined in water and methanol. UV spectral measurement (at 265 nm) and HPLC were used to determine the remaining amounts of AsA in water and methanol, respectively. It was found that, in the presence of metal ions, the autoxidation rate of AsA was significantly affected by the kinds of solvents used, and also by the kinds of metal ions present. Moreover, the first-order rate constants for the oxidation of non-dissociated AsA compared with dissociated-AsA were investigated. It was confirmed that the oxidation of AsA was more accelerated in the dissociated form of AsA than in the non-dissociated form of AsA in either with Fe(III) or Cu(II). It was also found that the Cu(II) at a concentration of 0.1 $\mu$M had a more significant effect on the first-order rate constants for the autoxidation of AsA than Fe(III) at 5 $\mu$M.

Methylophaga aminisulfidivorans $MP^T$, a restricted facultative marine methylotrophic bacterium, was able to utilize methanol as a sole carbon and energy source, and possessed a methanol dehydrogenase (MDH) that is a key enzyme in the process of methanol oxidation. During purification of MDH, three types of MDH (MDH I, II, and III) were obtained in the cell free extracts from $MP^T$ cells grown on methanol. When analyzed by SDS-PAGE and ESI-FT ICR MS, MDH I was confirmed to consist of two subunits and with molecular masses of ~66 and ~10 kDa, respectively, in a form of ${\alpha}_2{\beta}_2$. While MDH II and MDH III contained an additional ~30 kDa protein, designated ${\gamma}$, in a form of ${\alpha}_2{\beta}_2{\gamma}$ and ${\alpha}_2{\beta}_2{\gamma}_2$, respectively. MDH III showed 1.5.2.0 times higher activity than MDH II, while MDH I remained the lowest activity. Based on these observations and experimental data, it seems that the original MDH conformation is ${\alpha}_2{\beta}_2{\gamma}2$ within $MP^T$ growing on methanol, and subunit ${\gamma}$ keeps MDH in an active form, and/or makes MDH easily bind to the substrate, methanol.

The physical and rheological properties of thermoplasticized irradiation-crosslinked polyethylene foam using supercritical methanol treatment were investigated by GPC, FTIR, DSC, WAXS, DMTA and UDS. The polyethylene foam was selectively decrosslinked into thermoplasticized polyethylene in an appropriate supercritical methanol condition without any undesirable side reactions such as oxidation and disproportionation. The thermoplasticization was promoted with increasing reaction temperature to reach completion above $380^{\circ}C$. The supercritical reaction condition affected the crystallization behavior, and mechanical and rheological properties of the decrosslinked polyethylene foam, but not its crystallographic structure or crystallinity.

코발트 산소 운반체인 N,N''-ethylenebis(3-methoxysalycylideneiminato)cobalt(II), Co(3MeOsalen)을 $25{\circ}C$에서 합성하였다. 이 착물과 하이드라조벤젠의 자외선 및 가시부분 광스펙트럼은 파장 범위 200-600 nm에서 비수용매 메탄올을 사용하여 연구하였다. 하이드라조벤젠의 산소와의 산화반응은 메탄올에서 Co(3MeOsalen) 촉매로 사용하였다. 트라이페닐포스핀($PPh_3$) 존재하에서, 반응속도는 감소하였으며 이는 촉매가 리간드 트라이페닐포스핀과 배위화합된 것으로 추정되며 촉매가 비활성인 Co(3MeOsalen)$(PPh_3)_2$으로 되어 속도가 급격히 떨어지는 것으로 생각된다. 리간드 트라이페닐포스핀과 하이드라조벤젠의 초기산화속도는 이론속도식, Rate=$k_1+k_2K_1[P]/1+K_1[P]+K_1K_2[P]^2$으로 측정되었다. 이것은 리간드가 메탄올 분자보다 더 좋지않은 σ-주게일 것으로 간주된다.

전기화학적 석출 방법을 이용하여 indium tin oxide 표면에 백금 나노구조를 형성하고 총 석출전하량을 조절하여 형성되는 나노구조의 변화에 따른 전기화학적 메탄올 산화 반응과 산소 환원반응에 대한 촉매 활성의 변화를 관찰하였다. 석출 전하량의 변화에 따라 생성되는 백금 나노구조체 표면의 특성을 주사 전자 현미경, 전기화학적 표면적 측정, X-선 회절법, 일산화탄소 벗김분석을 통해 규명하고 전기화학적 촉매 활성과의 연계성을 조사하였다. 전기화학적 촉매 활성은 형성된 백금 나노구조에 따라 달라지는데, 석출 전하량 $0.45C\;cm^{-2}$에 해당하는 백금 나노구조에서 가장 우수한 촉매 활성이 관찰되었다. 전하량에 따른 표면적의 변화보다 형성된 구조적 특이성과 결정면이 촉매 활성에 많은 영향을 미쳤다. 세밀한 백금 나노구조의 변화에 따른 전기화학적 촉매 활성 변화에 관한 본 연구결과는 보다 우수한 촉매 시스템을 고안하는 연구에 도움이 될 것이다.

Direct methanol fuel cell based on a proton-exchange membrane electrolyte was investigated. 60% Pt-Ru/C and 60%Pt/C catalysts were employed for methanol oxidation and oxygen reduction, respectively. Morphologies of the catalysts were investigated by x-ray power diffraction, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, and transmission microscopy. Electrochemical characteristics of the catalysts were tested by using cyclic voltametry technique. I-V characteristics of the fuel cell were tested by changing methanol concentration, temperature, and Nafion type as a proton-exchange membrane electrolyte. AC impedance technique was used to investigate the electrochemical performance of the fuel cell. The performance of single cell was enhance with increasing cell temperature. High operation temperature attributed to the combined effects of the reduction of ohmic resistance and polarization. High cell voltage was obtained from the concentration of 205M methanol. With Nafion 112, a current density of $230mA/cm^2$ at 0.55V was obtained from the concentration of 2.5M methanol.

금속물질의 분산도를 높여주기 위해 열처리와 산처리를 수행한 carbon black에 다양한 비율의 Pt와 Sn을 담지 시킨 촉매를 환원법을 이용하여 합성하였다. Pt/Sn의 비율은 전구체 용액 내에서 상대적인 농도를 변화시켜 조절하였으며, Pt/Sn 비율에 따른 반응 특성을 조사하였다. XRD (X-ray Diffraction) 분석을 통해 합성된 촉매의 결정도를 확인하였고, XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy) 분석으로 Pt와 Sn의 산화가를 확인하였다. 합성된 촉매의 조성과 구조를 분석하기 위해 SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy)-EDS (Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy) 분석과 TEM (Transmission Electron Microscopy) 분석을 수행하였다. 산소 환원 반응 특성은 0.5 M $H_2SO_4$ 수용액에서 RDE (Rotating Disk Electrode)를 이용하여 조사하였으며, 산소환원 촉매활성은 Pt/Sn의 비율에 크게 의존함을 확인하였다. 합성한 전극의 메탄올 산화반응은 전기화학분석장치(Potentiostat ; Princeton applied research, VSP)를 이용하여 0.5 M $CH_3OH$와 0.5 M $H_2SO_4$의 혼합수 용액에서 수행하였다. 메탄올 산화에 대한 전기화학적 촉매활성과 안정성을 평가한 결과 적절한 양의 Sn을 첨가한 촉매가 높은 촉매활성과 안정성을 나타냄을 확인하였다.

Isatis indigotica is commonly used as traditional chinese medicine for antipyretic, antiviral, and detoxifying purpose in China. In order to examine whether it prevents lipid peroxidation, root of Isatis indigotica was extracted with methanol and fractionated with hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol and water. The activity was evaluated by DPPH method and lipid peroxidation in rat liver homogenate and C $u^{++}$ -induced oxidated LDL. The results showed that ethyl acetate fraction and indigo, which is known as its constituent, had significantly anti-lipid peroxidative effects.s.
