The aims of this study were to investigate and confirm the occurrence and distribution patterns of synthetic musk compounds (SMCs) in Nakdong river basin (mainstream and its tributaries). 4 (HHCB, AHTN, AHMI and ADBI) out of 6 polycyclic musk compounds (PMCs) and 1 (musk xylene, MX) out of 5 nitro musk compounds (NMCs) were detected in 29 sampling sites and HHCB (>50%) was predominant compound followed by musk ketone (MK) and AHTN. The total concentration levels of SMCs on February 2009 and on September 2009 in surface water samples ranged from N.D. to 2147 ng/L and N.D. to 1386 ng/L, respectively. The highest concentration level of SMCs in the mainstream and tributaries in Nakdong river were Goryeong and Jincheon-cheon, respectively. The sewage treatment plants (STPs) along the river affect the SMCs levels in river and the SMCs levels decreased with downstream because of dilution effects.

The anti-mutagenic effect of Orostachys japonicus (OJ) toward aflatoxin (AFB$_{1}$) and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) in the Salmonella assay system was studied. The methanol extract of OJ inhibited the mutagenicity induced by AFB$_{1}$ about 97% when 5% of the extract added to the system. Butanol fraction from the methanol extract was the most effective against AFB$_{1}$. However, other fractions of hexane, chloroform, and ethylacetate also showed considerable antimutagenic activity against AFB$_{1}$. Several identified compounds from the fractions of OJ exhibited anti-mutagenic effect. $\beta$-Sitosterol, astragalin and kaempferol-3-rhamnosyl-7-glucoside were selected from the compounds, and these compounds inhibited the mutagenicity dose-dependently. These 3 compounds also decreased the mutagenicity induced by MNNG. From these results, it is suggested that the major compounds such as triterpene, sterol and flavonoid in the OJ were responsible for the inhibition of the AFB$_{1}$ and MNNG-induced mutagenicities.

Most of the aromatic nitro compounds were reduced to amines in high yield by transfer of hydrogen from 4-vinyl cyclohexene to the substrate via palladium catalyst. The usefulness of the method is not affected by the presence of a variety of other functional groups such as -OH, $-OCH_3$, $-CH_3$, $-CO_2H$, and -Cl, except for halogen which is removed during hydrogenation. The reduction of ortho-substituted nitrobenzene such as o-nitrotoluene, o-nitrophenol, o-nitroanisole was slower than the para isomer. Typically, the nitro compound is refluxed in ethanol with a large exess of 4-vinylcyclohexene in the presence of Pd-C catalyst. Under the above conditions, p-nitrobenzaldehyde, p-nitrobenzyl alcohol, and p-nitrobenzyl acetate were reduced to p-toluidine.

Salicylic acid and 3-hydroxy benzoic acid are nitrated and esterified with some alcohols. Five phosphate and six carbamate compounds of alkyl-5-nitrosalicylate and alkyl-3-hydroxy-4-nitrobenzoate are synthesized by reacting alkyl-5-nitrosalicylate and alkyl-3-hydroxy-4-nitrobenzoate with diethyl-chlorophosphate and methyl isocyanate. As the bioassay results of synthesized compounds on five insects and six pathogens, the brown planthopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens) mortality of O-(2-carbomethoxy-4-nitrophenyl) O,O-diethylphosphate and O-(2-nitro-5-carbo methoxyphenyl) O,O-diethylphosphate was 96%, while four compounds including O-(2-carbo-(2-chloroethoxy)-4-nitrophenyl) O,O-diethylphosphate showed more than 95% of fungicidal activity on rice blast.

Aromatic primary amines were prepared by the catalytic hydrogenation of aromatic nitro compounds in a benzene solution over 50 mg of 10 % palladium on charcoal at a room temperature under 45 psi. This paper describes a study on the catalytic hydrogenation of nitrobenzene-$d_5$, $^{15}N$-labelled nitrobenzene, and 4'-nitrobenzo-15-crown-5, respectively. The infrared absorption spectra exhibited a characteristic N-H stretching vibrations at 3450 and $3350cm^{-1}$. The results suggest that the non-readily available aromatic amines would be commercially produced by catalytic hydrogenation because of its good yield and little by-product formation.

In this study, we try to Quantitatively assess the micropollutants in Gwangyang bay, Gamag bay and Yeoa bay, using simultaneous analytical method fir 310 chemicals. In the results, several dozen organic pollutants were detected in sampling sites, and the major chemicals detected were CH type chemicals, such as aliphatic and polycyclic compounds, and CHN(O) type chemicals, such as aromatic ammines and nitro compounds. The concentration of organic pollutants was higher in summer than in winter. However, there was no association of species of organic pollutants with season. The total concentration of pesticides at each sampling site was measured within the range of $ND{\sim}9.11{\mu}g/L$. Insecticides and fungicides of pesticide type were detected in Gwangyang bay and Gamag bay, while six kinds of endocrine disrupter were detected in southern coastal waters. From the results of this study, we should estimated that the insecticides, the fungicides, and a few of the endocrine disrupters are major pollutant factors in southern coastal waters.
