Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) of the thiazole, relevant to the binding of lexitroposin that contains thiazole ring to the base pair of minor groove of DNA is obtained from the results of ab initio calculation. The geometry optimization for the two possible conformations of protonated thiazoles is performed with the aid of MNDO and ab initio calculations. The proton affinities are calculated at the 6-31G and 6-31G basis set for the optimized geometry. The proton affinities are also studied for various substituted thiazoles with the electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups to estimate substituent effect on the proton affinity of thiazoles. It is found that the thiazole with nitrogen atom aligned inward to the DNA minor groove exhibit higher proton affinity and electron-donating substituents increase the proton affinity of thiazoles.ĀȀꃏ?⨀缾ĀȀ會ĀȀ?⨀ꖓĀĀȀ會ĀȀ僐?⨀聥ꖓĀĀȀ會ĀȀ꣐?⨀聐缾ĀȀ會ĀȀÑ?⨀ၑ缾ĀȀ會ĀȀ壑?⨀ꁑ缾ᨀĀꀏ會Āꀏ냑?⨀⡒缾᐀Āꀏ會Āꀏ࣒?⨀끒缾ᰀĀꀏ會Āꀏ惒?⨀ꁩꖓȀĀꀏ會Āꀏ룒?⨀⡪ꖓሀĀꀏ會Āꀏდ?⨀ᤐ돀삺?⨀塨?⨀飣?⨀돐룣?⨀偠잖⨀샣?⨀줏덐탣?⨀젏ꠏܞ

Cr(VI)-pyrazine complex (PZCC) was synthesized by the reaction of pyrazine with chromium (VI) trioxide in 6 M HCl. The structure was characterized using IR spectroscopy and inductively coupled plasma (ICP). The oxidation of benzyl alcohol using PZCC in various solvents showed that the reactivity increased with the increase of the dielectric constant, in the order: N,N'-dimethylform-amide > acetone > chloroform > cyclohexene. In the presence of N,N'-dimethylformamide solvent with an acidic catalyst such as sulfuric acid ($H_2SO_4$ solution), PZCC oxidized benzyl alcohol (H) and its derivatives ($p-OCH_3$, $m-CH_3$, $m-OCH_3$, m-Cl, $m-NO_2$). Electron-donating substituents accelerated the reaction rate, whereas electron acceptor groups retarded the reaction rate. Hammett reaction constant (${\rho}$) was -0.70 (308 K). The observed experimental data were used to rationalize the hydride ion transfer in the rate-determining step.

Since the production of synthetic detergents in 1966, the demand of detergents increased rapidly during the past in Korea. Its production which was solely for donlestic consumption leaped from 402 tons in 1966 to 259387 tons in 1989. Practically all of these products were the anionic detergents primarily sodium salts of Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate(ABS). ABS persists for long periods in stream because of its resistance to triodegradation. Therefore synthetic detergents have been considered major contributors to water pollution. The detergents give a raise to be noted is foaming at sewage treatment plant and the drinking water contaminated by detergents have often been accompanying taste and odor. So the biodegradable Linear Alkyl benzene Sulfonate(LAS) has been adapted as the substituents for the Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate (ABS) since the 1980. However, the Inassive bubbles stemmed from use of synthetic detergents in the sewage treatment plant and the branch of tile Han River had been reported. Therefore, this investigation less undertaken so as to know the pollution of detergents in domestic sewage and the receiving river, and determine the biodegradation of synthetic detergents since ABS has been replaced by LAS in 1980. The study results on the pollution and biodegradation of synthetic detergents were as follows . 1. The major streams in Seoul were contaminated by synthetic detergents. The concentration of detergents were 2.48 mg/l of Anyangchon. 2. The biodegradation were determined by spontaneous settling and aeration. Since the LAS was substitute for ABS in 1980, detergents was more easy to biodegradable. The reduction ratio of Tanchon, Chungranchon, and Anyangchon were 15% , 11% and 16% by the settling and 76%, 77% and 82% by aerations for 5 days.

A kinetic study is reported for aminolysis of S-4-nitrophenyl X-substituted thiobenzoates 3a-g in 80 mol % $H_2O$/20 mol % DMSO at $25.0{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$. Thiol esters 3a-g are 7.8-47.6 fold more reactive than the corresponding oxygen esters (i.e., 4-nitrophenyl X-substituted benzoates 1a-g). Such reactivity order appears to be in accordance with the expectation that 4-nitrothiophenoxide in 3a-g is a better nucleofuge than 4-nitrophenoxide in 1a-g since the former is 2.64 pKa units less basic than the latter. Hammett plot for the reactions of 3a-g exhibit poor correlation coefficients ($R^2$ = 0.977-0.986) with negative deviation by substrates possessing an electrondonating group (EDG), while the Yukawa-Tsuno plots result in excellent linear correlation ($R^2$ = 0.995-0.997) with ${\rho}$ = 0.93-1.23 and r = 0.57-0.67, indicating that the negative deviation shown by substrates possessing an EDG is caused by ground-state stabilization through resonance interactions but not due to a change in ratedetermining step upon changing the nonleaving-group substituent X. The ${\rho}$ value increases as the incoming amine becomes more basic and more reactive, indicating that the RSP is not operative in the current reactions.

Lignans and neolignans are optically active plant secondary metabolites. Research on biosynthesis of lignans has already been advanced especially for the formation of (+) pinoresinol but information on the biosynthesis of 8-O-4'- neolignans is still limited. Moreover, the chemical structure(position of substituents on aromatic rings) and stereochemistry of 8-O-4' neolignans is not clear. Katayama and Kado discovered that incubation of cell-free extracts from E. ulmoides with coniferyl alcohol in the presence of hydrogen peroxide gave (+)-erythro- and (-)-threo- guaiacylglycerol 8-O-4'-(coniferyl alcohol) ether (GGCE)(diastereomeric ratio, 3:2) which is the first report on enzymatic formation of optically active -8-O-4' neolignans from an achiral monolignol. In this aspect, enzymatic formation of guaiacyl 8-O-4' neolignan is noteworthy to clarify its stereochemistry from incubation of coniferyl alcohol with enzyme prepared from Eucommia ulmoides. In this experiment, soluble and insoluble enzymes prepared from E. ulmoides were incubated with 30 mM coniferyl alcohol(CA) for 60 min. The enzyme catalyzed GGCE, dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol(DHCA), and pinoresinol identified by reversed phase HPLC. Consequently, diastereomeric compositions of GGCE were determined as erythro and threo isomer. Enantiomeric composition was determined by the chiral column HPLC. Both enzyme preparations enantioselectively formed (-)-erythro, (+)-erythro and (+)-threo, (-)-threo-GGCEs respectively.

Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationships (3D-QSARs) for the herbicidal activities against pre-emergence barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) by new 2-(4-(6-chloro-2-benzoxazolyloxy)phenoxy)-N-phenylpropion amide derivatives were studied quantitatively using comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity indices analysis (CoMSIA) methodologies. The best CoMFA model (AI-2) and CoMSIA model (AII-4) were derived from an atom based fit alignment and a combination of CoMFA fields. The herbicidal activities from CoMFA and CoMSIA contour maps showed that the activity will be able to be increased according to the substituents variation on the N-phenyl ring.

In the search for third generation herbicidal cyclic imide derivatives, the average values of herbicidal activity ($pI_{50}$) in vivo (pre-emergence) of 40 new peroxidizing herbicides, 1-(4-chloro-2-fluoro-5-propargyloxyphenyl)thiourea derivatives (1-40) against rice plant (Orysa sativa) and barnyard grass (Echinochlor crus-galli) were studied. The molecular similarity between protoporphyrinogen IX (protogen) as the substrate of protox enzyme and Urea derivatives (1-40) was discussed quantitatively. The diallyl (20) and 3-nitro substituent (33) showed the selective herbicidal activity against barnyard grass. Allyl substituent (8) and their molecular similarity in dice (S=0.81) showed the highest levels of herbicidal activity ($pI_{50}$=4.71). Also, similarity indices (S) and superimposed volume (C) of protogen and aryl-substituents (21-40) showed good correlation.

4-(Dimethylamino)pyridinium dichromate was synthesized by the reaction of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine with chromium(VI)trioxide in $H_2O$, and characterized by IR, EA and ICP. The oxidation of benzyl alcohol using 4-(dimethylamino)pyridinium dichromate in various solvents showed that the reactivity increased with the increase of the dielectric constant, in the order: cyclohexen < chloroform < acetone < N,N-dimethylformamide. In the presence of hydrochloric acid(HCl), 4-(dimethylamino)pyridinium dichromate oxidized benzyl alcohol and its derivatives ($p-CH_3$, H, m-Br, $m-NO_2$) smoothly in N,N-dimethylformamide. Electron-donating substituents accelerated the reaction, whereas electron-withdrawing groups retarded the reaction. The Hammett reaction constant($\rho$) was -0.70 at 303K. The observed experimental data have been rationalized as follows: the proton transfer occurs after the prior formation of a chromate ester in the rate-determining step.

A synthesis and the screening of new 2-iminothiazolines (IV) of which structures are modified based on a lead compound, thiazoline for development of new agrochemical fungicide were described. Bromination of acetoacetanilides (I) which were prepared by the reaction of diketene with anilines gave the corresponding ${\gamma}-bromoacetoactanilide\;(II)$. Treatment of II with N-phenyl-N'-methyl thiourea (III) afforded IV, structure of which was confirmed by various spectroscopic methods. Antifungal activity of the new IV was tested against six kinds of typical plant diseases (in vivo). The IV with aromatic substituents showed remarkable activity against the Pyricuraria oryzae at 250 ppm in primary screening. The candidates with control value over 90% in primary screening were selected and further tested for second screening at lower concentrations. The IV which has an electron-withdrawing substituent such as halogen, especially fluorine in aryl group showed a higher activity as compared to those with electron-donating group and meta substituent was for optimal position.

The herbicidal activities ($pI_{50}$) with alkoxy (RO-) groups on the azomethine nitrogen atom in 5-(2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzothiophene-7-yl)-2-(1-(alkoxyimino)butyl)-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-one derivatives against various weeds were measured in the flooded and in the paddy conditions. Particularly, i-propoxy subsutuent, 5 of them showed excellent herbicidal activity at a rate of 4kg/ha with pre-emergence against barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus-galli) with good selectivity on rice plant (Oryza sativa). The results of the structure-activity relationships (SAR) analyses are shown that the alkyl subsituents with higher hydrophobicity (logp>0) and electron donating (${\sigma}^*<0$) group as a new substrate rather than alkoxy substituents seems to be contribute to the herbicidal activity with pre-emergence.
