Electrochemical behavior of mer-tris(2-pyridinethiolato)cobalt(Ⅲ) in dimethylformamide was studied on a platinum electrode by means of cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, and chronocoulometry. It was found that the neutral complex molecule was electroactive between the potential region of 1.0 and - 1.2 V vs. a nonaqueous Ag/Ag+ electrode. The Co(Ⅲ) complex was reversibly reduced to Co(Ⅱ) species by one-electron transfer at about - 1.1 V, followed by an irreversible dissociation reaction. However, the oxidation process at around 0.8 V, was responsible for an irreversible two-electron transfer that occurred at a ligand site.

The dependence of polarographic parameters on the pressure for the reduction of copper(II), cadmium(II), and zinc(II) complex ions with ethylenediamine, propylenediamine, and diethylenetriamine has been studied. In this study the dropping mercury electrode, the mercury pool electrode, and helix type of platinum wire were used as the working, the reference, and the auxilary electrode, respectively. With increasing the pressure from 1 atmosphere to 1,500 atmospheres, the reduction half-wave potentials of metal complex ions are shifted to the negative values and the diffusion currents become considerably larger, in keeping with the theory on the change of the physical properties of the electrolytic solution such as the density, the viscosity, the dielectric constant, and the electrical conductance, etc. The slope values of the logarithmic plot are increased with increasing the pressure, which indicates the more irreversible reduction. The temperature coefficients of diffusion current observed over the range of the temperature from 25$^{\circ}$C to 35$^{\circ}$C are about two percentage with increasing the pressure, therefore the polarographic reduction under the high pressure is controlled by diffusion. The linear relationships between diffusion current and concentration of metal complex ions are established over all pressure range.

Cisplatin is an inorganic complex formed by a central atom of platinum surrounded by chlorine and ammonia atoms in the cis position in the horizontal plane, Cisplatin is one of the most effective anticancer drug, widely used against various tumor such as testicular tumor, brain tumor, ovary tumor, bladder carcinoma, colon cancer etc. However its clinical use has been limited by nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity , gastrointestinal disturbances, myeloscrppression and allergic reactions. In these toxicities, dose related and cumulative nephrotoxicity is the major dose limit factor. So, to evaluate the protective effect of aspalactone on cisplatin nephrotoxicity in rats, both compounds were given intraperitoneally, Protective effects of aspalactone against nephrotoxicity of cisplatin were observed when aspalactone was administered to rats 1hr beforecisplatin injection. Hepatotoxicity induced by combination treatment of cisplatin and aspalactone was not observed. The present results indicate that aspalactone may provide protection against cisplatin nephrotoxicity, when it is given 1hr before cisplatin injection.

Several Pt(II) and Pt(IV) complexes of N,N'-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine(2-HEen) and N,N'-bis(2-chloroethyl) ethylenediamine(2-CEen) as carrier ligand were prepared. Water soluble Pt complexes were also synthesized by modification of leaving groups. The cytotoxicity of these compounds against leukemia L1210 and P388 cell in vitro were examined. The Pt complexes containing 2-CEen showed more effective cytotoxicity than those containing 2-HEen. Through the nephrotoxicity tests on the primary cultured proximal tubular cells of rabbit kidney and human kidney cells in vitro, Pt complexes with 2-CEen showed higher than those with 2-HEen which were consistent with cytotoxicity but showed very low nephrotoxicity compared with cisplatin. Also the values of BUN and creatinine in serum of Pt complexes were reduced remarkably compared with cisplatin, therefore it can be concluded that new Pt complexes seems to have much lower nephrotoxicity than cisplatin.

제 3세대 platinum complex인 SKI 2053R에 의한 Salmonella typhimurium의 복귀변이빈도, CHL세포(Chinese Hamster Lung)에 대한 염색체이상 유발율 및 ddY계 마우스에서의 골수분화세포에 대한 염색체이상유발로 기인한 소핵의 빈도수를 관찰하여 SKI 2053R의 유전독성을 평가하였다. Salmonella typhimurium를 이용한 복귀돌연변이시험에서 SKI 2053R은 매우 경미한 정도의 돌연변이 유발성을 가지는 것으로 판단되며, 균주 특이적 돌연변이 유발성으로 보아 염기쌍치환형의 돌연변이를 유발하는 것으로 사료되며 포유류배양세포를 이용한 염색체이상실험에서 대사 활성 부재 및 존재하의 모든 시험 농도에서 10％ 이상의 염색체이상을 가진 세포가 관찰되었으며 염색체 상의 종류로는 염색분체형 교환 (cse)이 가장 많이 관찰되었다. 설치류를 이용한 소헥시험에서는 ddY계 마우스 골수세포의 분화과정에서 염색체이상을 유발하며, 다염성적혈구의 정염성적혈구에 대한 출현비율이 감소하는 결과로 볼때 방추체기능의 저해를 일으키는 것으로 판단된다. 그러므로 본 시험조건데 있어서 SKI 2053R은 소핵을 유발하는 물질로 결론지었다.

Lead zirconate titanate(PZT) powders and thin films were prepared from an alkoxide-based solution by sol-gel method. Gelation of synthesized complex solutions, pyrolysis and crystallization behaviors of the dried powder were studied in accordance with a water content and a catalyst. PZT thin films were formed by spin-casting method on silicon and platinum substrates, and characterized. Ester produced from the reactions was completely removed when drying of the gel was finished. Pyrolysis property of the dried PZT gels were changed in order water content, class of catalyst, and quantity of catalyst. Crystalline Pb phase was transiently formed near 250$^{\circ}C$. Basic catalyst is good additive for a formation of perovskite phase in the films, and acidic catalyst for a densified film structure. By the analysis of RBS, Pb element in the PZT films were diffused into silicon substrate, and the pores, may be produced due to local densification around some grains in the films, make an origin of fault in microstructure when holding time goes to be longer at 700$^{\circ}C$.

An ultrasensitive and selective stripping voltammetric scheme for the determination of rhodium is described. By the use of combined accumulation and catalytic effects in formaldehyde-hydrochloric acid medium, substantial improvement in the limit of detection can be obtained. Optimal experimental conditions were found to be 0.42 M hydrochloric acid solution containing 0.008${\%}$ formaldehyde, an accumulation potential of -0.70 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) and an accumulation time of 20 s. The stripping mode was differential pulse voltammetry. In these conditions the limit of detection lies at 2 ${\times}$ l0$^{-12}$ M (0.21 ppt). The relative standard deviation at 5 ${\times}$ l0$^{-11}$ M was 4.9${\%}$ (n=5). There were no serious interferences from other platinum group metal ions being the tolerable amounts more than 500 times that of rhodium.

Nanocrystalline Zn$Fe_2O_4$ oxide-semiconductor with spinel structure was synthesized by the polymerized complex (PC) method and investigated for its photocatalytic and photoelectric properties. The observation of a highly pure phase and a lower crystallization temperature in Zn$Fe_2O_4$ made by PC method is in total contrast to that was observed in Zn$Fe_2O_4$ prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction (SSR) method. The band gap of the nanocrystalline Zn$Fe_2O_4$ determined by UV-DRS was 1.90 eV (653 nm). The photocatalytic activity of Zn$Fe_2O_4$ prepared by PC method as investigated by the photo-decomposition of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) under visible light (${\geq}$ 420 nm) was much higher than that of the Zn$Fe_2O_4$ prepared by SSR as well as Ti$O_{2-x}N_x$. High photocatalytic activity of Zn$Fe_2O_4$ prepared by PC method was mainly due to its surface area, crystallinity and the dispersity of platinum metal over Zn$Fe_2O_4$.

Nanostructures, with a diversity of shapes, built on substrates have been developed within many research areas. Lithography is one powerful, but complex, technique to make structures at the nanometer scale, such as platinum nanowires for studying CO catalytic reactions [1], or aluminum nanodisks for studying the plasmon effect [2]. In this work, we approach a facile method to construct nanostructures using noble metals on a titania thin film by using self-assembled structures as a pattern. Here, a large-scale silica monolayer is transferred to the titania thin film substrates using a Langmuir-Blodgett trough, followed by the deposition of a thin transition metal layer. Owing to the hexagonal close-packed structure of the silica monolayer, we would obtain a metal nanostructure that includes separated metallic triangles (islands) after removing the patterning silica beads. This nanostructure can be employed to investigate the role of metal-oxide interfaces in CO catalytic reactions by changing the patterning silica particles with different sizes or by replacing the oxide support. The morphology and chemical composition of the structure can be characterized by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. In addition, we modify these islands to a connected island structure by reducing the silica size of the patterning monolayer, which is utilized to generating hot electron flow based on the localized surface plasmon resonance effect of the metal nanostructures.

Complexes synthesized by reacting alkyl and aryl phosphines with different transition metals are of great interest due to their catalytic properties. Many of the phosphine complexes are soluble in polar solvents as a result they find applications in homogeneous catalysis. In our present work we report, four transition metal complexes of Ni(II), Pd(II), Pt(II) and Ru(II) with an asymmetrical ditertiaryphosphine ligand. The synthesized ligand bears a less electronegative substituent such as methyl group on the aromatic nucleus hence makes it a strong ${\sigma}$-donor to form stable complexes and thus could effectively used in catalytic reactions. The complexes have been completely characterized by elemental analyses, FTIR, $^1HNMR$, $^{31}PNMR$ and FAB Mass Spectrometry methods. Based on the spectroscopic evidences it has been confirmed that Ni(II), Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes with the ditertiaryphosphine ligand showed cis whereas the Ru(II) complex showed trans geometry in their molecular structure.
