A new $\pi$-conjugated polymer, poly[(2-methoxy-(5-(2-(4-oxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole)-hexyloxy))-1,4-pheny1ene-1,2-etheny1ene-alt-(10-hexyl-3,7-phenothiazine )-1,2-ethenylene] (PTOXDPPV), was synthesized by the Heck coupling reaction. The electron transporting unit, conjugated 1,3,4-oxadiazo1e (OXD), is attached on the main chain via linear 1,6-hexamethylenedioxy chain. The band gap and photoluminescence (PL) maximum of PTOXDPPV are 2.35 eV and 565 nm, respectively. These values are very close to those of po1y[(2,5-didecyloxy-1,4-phenylene-1,2-etheny1ene )-alt-(l0-hexyl-3,7-phenothiazine)-1,2-ethenylene] (PTPPV), which does not have OXD pendant. The estimated HOMO energy level of PTOXDPPV was -4.98 eV, which is very close to that of PTPPV (-4.91 eV). The maximum wavelength of EL device based on PTOXDPPV and PTPPV appeared at 587 and 577 nm, respectively. In the PL and EL spectrum, the emission from OXD pendant was not observed. This indicates that the energy transfer from OXD pendants to main chain is occurred completely. The EL device based on PTOXD-PPV (ITO/PEDOT/PTOXDPPV/AI) has an efficiency of 0.033 cd/A, which is significantly higher than the device based on PTPPV (ITO/PEDOT/PTPPV/AI) ($4.28{\times}10^{-3}\;cd/A$). From the results, we confirm that the OXD pendants in PTOXDPPV facilitate hole-electron recombination processes in the emissive layer effectively.

We synthesized 2-(10-methyl-10H-phenothiazin-3-yl)-5-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole (MPPO) and 5,5-(10-methyl-10H-phenothiazin-3,7-diyl)-bis-(2-phenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole) (DPPO). MPPO has both electron-donating and electron-accepting substituents with asymmetric molecular geometry. By incorporating one extra electron-accepting group into MPPO, we created a symmetric molecule, which is DPPO. The optical and electrochemical properties of these compounds were measured. The lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) level of DPPO was lower than that of MPPO. The excited-state dipole moment of DPPO, with symmetric geometry, was calculated to be 4.1 Debye, whereas MPPO, with asymmetric geometry, had a value of 7.0 Debye. The charge-carrier mobility of both compounds was similar. We fabricated non-doped organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) using D-A type molecules as an emitting layer. The current efficiency of the DPPO-based device was 7.8 cd/A, and the external quantum efficiency was 2.4% at 100 cd/m², demonstrating significantly improved performance compared to the MPPO-based device. The photophysical and electroluminescence (EL) characteristics of the two D-A type molecules showed that molecular symmetry, as well as the lowered LUMO level of DPPO, played critical roles in the enhancement of EL performance.

To improve the growth inhibition activities and selectivities for quinclorac family, novel 3-substituted phenyl-5-(3,7-dichloro-8-quinolinyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives as the substrate were synthesized and their the activities ($pI_{50}$) against shoot and root of rice plant (Oryza sativa L.) and barn-yard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) were measured. And the quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) between physicochemical parameters of the substitutents (R) on phenyl group and the activities ($pI_{50}$) were analyzed quantitatively. According to the SAR analyses, the substrates of planar conformation showed higher herbicidal activities against barnyard grass than rice plant. The activities against rice plant depend on the electronic effect (shoots: ${\sigma}_{opt.}=0.49$ & root: $R_{opt.}=-0.15$) of substituents, whereas the activities against shoots and roots of barnyard grass depend on hydrophobicity (${\pi}_{opt.}=0.37{\sim}2.40$). There were conditions of selective growth inhibition activity against barnyard grass when such a ortho-substituted electron donating substituents showing the hydrophobicity value, ${\pi}=2.40$ were introduced on the phenyl ring. The 2-tolyl substituent predicted from SAR equations was expected to have better growth inhibition activity and selectivity (${\Delta}pI_{50}=1.26$) for barnyard grass.

Ethyl 1-aminotetrazole-5-carboxylate (1) reacted with hydrazine hydrate to give the corresponding aminohydrazide 2. Cyclization of 2 by carbon disulfide yielded 1,3,4-oxadiazole-5-thiol structure 3. Reaction of 3 with either chloroacetone or ethyl chloroacetate furnished S-acyl 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives 4 and 5, respectively. Also compound 3 reacted with hydrazine hydrate afforded 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole-5-thiol derivative 6. 6-Methyl-1,3,4-triazolo[3,4-b]-1,3,4-thiadiazole structure 7 was synthesized by reaction of aminothiol 6 with glacial acetic acid. Diazotization of 1 with sodium nitrite in presence of hydrochloric acid yielding the diazonium salt which on treating with hippuric acid, oxazolone derivative 8 was obtained. Furthermore, tetrazolo[5,1-f]-1,2,4-triazine 9 was constructed via cyclization of aminoester 1 with formamide. Compound 9 reacted with carbon disulfide to furnish 8-thione derivative 10 which reacting with chloroacetone, ethyl chloroacetate, and hydrazine hydrate, the corresponding chemical structures 11, 12, and 13 were synthesized. 1,2,4-Triazolo[4,3-d]tetrazolo[5,1-f]-1,2,4-triazines 14 and 15 were resulted by treating of compound 13 with triethyl orthoformate, and glacial acetic acid, respectively. The structures of the newly synthesized products were elucidated according to elemental analyses and spectroscopic evidences. Some of the representative members of the prepared compounds were screened for antimicrobial activity.

A series of new quinclorac family, herbicidal 3-phenyl-5-(3,7-dichloro-8-quinolinyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives as substrate were synthesized and their growth inhibition activity $(pI_{50})$ against root and shoot of rice plant (Oryza sativa L.) and barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) were determined. And then comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and molecular holographic quantitative structure- activity relationship (HQSAR) were compared in terms of their potential for predictiability. The statistical results were suggested that HQSAR based model had better predictability than CoMFA model. The selective factors to remove barnyard grass take electron withdrawing groups which can be created positive charge and steric bulky on the phenyl ring. Results revealed that the unknown 2,6-dichloro-substituent, U5 and 2,4,6-trichloro-substituent, U6(${\Delta}pI_{50}$=CoMFA: 1.18 & HQSAR: 1.82) were predicted as compound with higher activity and selectivity.

The activation of cyclin dependent kinase 4 (CDK4) is found in more than half of all human cancers. Therefore CDK4 is an attractive target for the development of a novel anticancer agent. For mass screening of CDK4 inhibitor, we set up in vitro kinase assay for CDK4 activity using a cyclin D1-CDK4 fusion protein, which is constitutively active and exhibits enhanced stability. From the screening of representative compound library of Korea Chemical Bank, we found that 7-chloro-4-nitro-benzo[1,2,5]oxadiazole 1-oxide (FBP-1248) selectively inhibited CDK4 activity in vitro by ATP competitive manner. This compound prevented the phosphorylation of retinoblatsoma tumor suppressor protein, Rb, and inhibited cell growth through cell cycle arrest. In summary, we developed an efficient assay system for CDK4 activity in vitro and identified the CDK4 inhibitory compound, FBP-1248.

New quaternary ammonium chlorides, [alkyldimethyl-[5-(2-phenylthiazol-4-yl]-1,3,4-oxadizol-2-ylmethyl]quaternary ammonium chlorides (ADOQACs): 6] were obtained with high yields by the reaction of compound 5 with N,N-dimethylalkyl amines in isopropyl alcohol. The structures and physical properties of the synthesized compounds were investigated and those surface-active properties were measured. The surface tension ($\gamma_{cmc}$) and the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of compound 6 were found to be influenced by the number of alkyl chain carbon. Especially, compounds 6c and 6d exhibited high anti-bacterial activities and good surface-active properties.

Poly(1', 4'-phenylene-1", 4"-(2"-(2""-ethyl-hexyloxy)) phenylene-1",4"-phenylene-2,5-oxadiazolyl) (PPEPPO) was synthesized and its electrochemical characteristics was investigated as electrode material in redox supercapacitor. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) shows there was scarcely a redox reaction and further suggests n-doping is difficult to occur in this system. However, the discharge curve between 3.0 to 0.01 V is continuously decreased like a straight line, similar to the discharge pattern of EDLC. The initial specific discharge capacitance is ~6.4 F/g, while the specific capacitance of 1000th cycle is ~0.1 F/g. The PPEPPO can be used as the electrode of supercapacitor, emissive material, as well as charge-transporting material in polymer LED.ansporting material in polymer LED.
