Fluorescence quenching of coumarin 153 and coumarin 481 with N,N-dimethylaniline in various solvents was investigated. Quenching rate constants are related to diffusion-limited rate constants to some extent. It is noted that smaller discrepancy was observed between the diffusion-limited rate constant and the experimental quenching rate constant when the stick boundary condition rather than the slip boundary condition was applied for estimating the diffusion coefficients. In nonpolar solvent like cyclohexane fluorescence quenching is adequately explained by the diffusion controlled process within the experimental error, but in acetonitrile the quenching rate constant was estimated to be consistently smaller than the diffusion limited rate constant. This may suggest that fluorescence quenching of coumarin dyes be affected not only by the molecular diffusion but also by the intramoleccular process such as charge separation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of human epidermal stratum corneum as protein model soils for detergency test. The stratum corneum was collected by scraping of the skin and purified with solvent. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Purified stratum corneum contained $92.38\%$ of crude protein. 2. In the amino acid compositions, contents of glycine, glutamic acid and serine were high and methionine and cystine were low. They were similar to fibrous $\alpha$-keratin consisted of stratum corneum. Whereas the content of polar amino acids was decreased, that of nonpolar amino acids was increased after enzyme hydrolysis. 3. The hydrolysis of stratum corneum with enzyme increased muck at initial reaction time and levelled off in 4$\~$6 hours. The hydrolysis with enzyme was improved effectively at its optimum temperature and pH. 4. The hydrolysis of stratum corneum with enzyme increased by the addition of surfactants. The order of compatibility with enzyme was in the order of Triton X-100>AOS>LAS.

The inertness of eight-coordinate tetrakis(picolinato)tungsten(IV) complex has been investigated by spectroscopic method in nonpolar solvent at 60$^{\circ}C$, 75$^{\circ}C$, 90$^{\circ}C$, 120$^{\circ}C$, and reflux condition. Until 2 days, showed the inertness whether existance of oxygen or not. After 2 days, showed the oxidation of W(IV) complex much more rapidly than substitution, which had $k_{obs}(sec^{-1}) {\varpropto} 1/[ligand]^2$. On sealing the sample under Ar gas, showed the inertness until 50 days, which had $k_{obs}(sec^{-1}) = 8.8{\times} 10^{-7}$. The$^1H$-NMR peak of $H_6$ in complex was diminished, otherwise that of free ligand was grown up. This result indicated that this complex was very inert.

This study was conducted to investigate the attractant substances of different solvent fractions of mackerel and tuna viscera. Mackerel and tuna viscera were extracted with methanol and the resultant were fractionated with n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol and water. The chemical compounds such as free amino acid, fatty acid, nucleotide related compounds contents were estimated for mackerel, tuna viscera and various fractions. These fractions were also subjected to attracting experiments in water tank to estimate attracting effects. The aqueous fractions of mackerel and tuna viscera showed the highest attraction effect on swimming crab. The major chemical compounds of the aqueous fractions were histidine, taurine, cysteine, glutamic acid, inosine monophosphate (IMP) and inosine (HxR) for mackerel and arginine, glutamic acid, aspartic aid, alanine, IMP and hypoxanthin (Hx). Results indicated that higher polarity compounds, such as amino acid and nucleotide related compounds have higher attraction activities than nonpolar substances such as neutral lipid.

This study was performed to evaluate factors affecting desorption of organic solvents collected on charcoal tube and to find out the optimum condition. Desorption efficiency for polar analytes was improved when several polar desorption solvents such as methanol, dimethylformamide(DMF), 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethanol were added to carbon disulfide($CS_2$). The best improvement was achieved when 10% dimethylformamide(DMF) in $CS_2$ was used as desorption solvent. During storage of polar analytes, recovery was greatly reduced. Especially, the recovery of cyclohexanone was decreased to 18.1 % after a month storage at $34^{\circ}C$. After two weeks storage, recovery of polar analytes was sharply decreased. Water adsorbed on charcoal interfered the recovery of polar analytes but didn't interfere that one of nonpolar solvent, toluene. When 10% DMF in $CS_2$ was used as desorption solvent, the effect of water on recovery was decreased, comparing with Desorption efficiency increased when analyte loading increased, and usage of 10% DMF in $CS_2$ decreased the loading effect. Increasing volume of desorption solvent was not effective to improve desorption efficiency of analytes when 10% DMF was used. Continuous shaking and sonication is not helpful to increase the desorption efficiency of analytes except cyclohexanone using 10% DMF. When silica gel used as adsorbent, methanol was better desorbent than dimethylsulfoxide. Analytes adsorbed on silica gel showed high recovery in low concentration and less affected by humidity. On the basis of this study, the following conclusions have been drawn. To improve the recovery of polar organic materials in air samples, it is necessary to analyze samples as soon as possible after they were collected. Otherwise, samples must be stored at low temperature. Using two components of desorption solvents, such as 10% DMF in $CS_2$, the effects of loading and humidity decreased for polar analytes such as methyl ethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone. When work place has high humidity with low concentration of polar organic solvents, silica gel can be used as adsorbent, because it produces quantitative recovery for polar analytes at this condition. But it should be noted that high humidity makes breakthrough easy in silica gel samples.

The systematic investigation of the retention behaviors of 18 monosubstituted benzenes in reversed-phase liquid chromatography(RPLC) was studied in order to predict the separation possibility of their mixtures and study the contribution of substituent group to the retentions of solutes. The columns and mobile phases employed in this study were $\mu$ -Bondapak $C_{18}$, $\mu$-Bondapak phenyl columns and methanol/water, acetonitrile/water, and THF/water, respectively. The polar substituents such as phenol, aniline, acetophenone and benzonitrile have smaller capacity factor(k') values than benzene, while nonpolar ones such as alkylbenzenes and halobenzenes show larger k' value. The capacity factors of all solutes increased on both C18 bonded and phenyl bonded phases as the organic solvent content of three organic solvent-water mixtures decreased. The absolute differences in capacity factor(${\Delta}k$') between substituent and benzene were graphically shown for the prediction of the separation of the mixture and interpretation of the elution behavior of substituent. In addition, the selectivity of solvent system for the separation of the mixture was investigated in both two columns and three mobile phases.

The synergistic solvent extraction of Mn(II) by N-nitroso-N-phenylhydroxylamineammonium salt (cupferron) and tetrabutylammonium ion ($TBA^+$) has been studied. In the presence of $TBA^+$, over 95% Mn(II) was extracted from an aqueous solution into chloroform by the cupferron in the pH range of 4 to 10. But a part of Mn(II) was extracted with only cupferron. The ternary complex of Mn(II) was more efficiently extracted into $CH_2Cl_2$ and $CHCl_3$ than other nonpolar solvents. The extracted Mn(II) was determined in the back-extracted $HNO_3$ solution by GF-AAS. This fixed procedure was applied to the determination of trace Mn(II) in tap water samples of pH 5.0. The detection limit equivalent to 3 times standard deviation of the background absorption was 0.37 ng/mL and Mn(II) was determined with the range of 0.4 to 1.01 ng/mL in our laboratory's tap water. And the recovery was 94 to 107% in samples in which 2.0 ng/mL Mn(II) was spiked. The interferences of common concomitant elements such as Cu(II), Ca(II), Fe(III) and so on were not shown up to $10{\sim}20{\mu}g/mL$. From these results, this procedure could be concluded to be applied for the determination of trace Mn(II) in other environmental water samples.

Several benzanilides were prepared by acylation of anilines with substituted benzoyl chlorides. While 2-chlorobenzanilides were photocyclized, 2-methylbenzanilide and 2'-methylbenzanilide were cleaved to give photo-Fries type products. 2-Nitrobenzanilide and 2'-nitrobenzanilide were inert in the above conditions due to lowering energy of the excited state by the nitro group. N, N-dibenzoylaniline and N, N-di-(2-chlorobenzoyl) aniline gave photo-Fries type reaction products effectively. In the benzanilide photo-Fries type reaction the excited singlet state was believed to be involved, since no oxygen effect was observed on the reaction rate. Quantum yield for 2-methylbenzanilide is higher in nonpolar and less viscous solvents than in polar and viscous solvents. The solvent cage radical pair is suggested in the photo-Fries type reaction of benzanilides.

Printed electronics using printing process has broadened in all respects such as electrics (lighting, batteries, solar cells etc) as well as electronics (OLED, LCD, E-paper, transistor etc). Copper is considered to be a promising alternative to silver for printed electronics, due to very high conductivity at a low price. However, Copper is easily oxidized, and its oxide is non-conductive. This is the highest hurdle for making copper inks, since the heat and humidity that occurs during ink making and printing simply accelerates the oxidation process. A variety of chemical treatments including organic capping agents and metallic coating have been used to slow this oxidation. We have established synthetic conditions of copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) which are resistant to oxidation and average diameter of 20 to 50nm. Specific resistivity should be less than $4\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ when sintered at lower temperature than $250^{\circ}C$ to be able to apply to conductive patterns of FPCBs using ink-jet printing. Through this study, the parameters to control average diameter of CuNPs were found to be the introduction of additive agent, the feeding rate of reducing agent, and reaction temperature. The CuNPs with various average diameters (58, 40, 26, 20nm) could be synthesized by controlling these parameters. The dispersed solution of CuNPs with an average size of 20 nm was made with nonpolar solvent containing 3 wt% of binder, and then coated onto glass substrate. After sintering the coated substrates at $250^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes in nitrogen atmosphere, metallic copper film resulted in a specific resistivity of $4.2\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$.

The toxic compounds of sorghum stem extracts were isolated by different organic solvents and pH, and characterized and quantified in terms of their inhibition of seed germination and seedling growth in Echinochloa colona(L.) Link and radish(Raphanus sativus L.). Sequential partitioning of stem extract with various organic solvents with increasing polarity showed that all fractions of hexane, ethyl ether, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, and the aqueous remainder inhibited germination and seedling growth in E. colona. Of the five fractions, the ethyl ether fraction had the greatest inhibitory effect on E. colona. Further separation of the ethyl ether fraction at different pH(pH 2-11) showed that phytotoxic compounds were acidic. The result indicates that the phytotoxin present in the stem extract may be nonpolar and acidic.
