The effects of amine donors ($a:NH_2,\;b:NMe_2,\;c:NMePh,\;d:NPh_2$) and conjugation length on the molecular hyperpolarizabilities of a series of dipolar molecules have been theoretically investigated by using CPHF/6-31G method. The first hyperpolarizabilities (${\beta}$) of p-nitrobenzene derivatives increase with the donor in the order, $NH_2\;<\;NMe_2\;<\;NMePh\;<\;NPh_2$, whereas slightly different order is observed in more conjugated derivatives, i.e., $NH_2\;<\;NPh_2\;<\;NMe_2\;<\;NMePh$. The result has been attributed to the extent of charge transfer and torsion angle. Moreover, the results show that "non-traditional" ${\pi}$-conjugation effect exists in small compounds and decreases as the conjugation length between donor and acceptor increases.

We have synthesized various types of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-ibuprofen conjugates by the nucleophilic substitution of bromo-terminated PEG with ibuprofen-Cs salt; PN (Pluronic) was also used in place of PEG. All the bromo-terminated PEGs and PN were obtained in high yield. Conversions of the terminal hydroxyl groups to bromo-termini were quantitative, as were the drug conjugation processes. The Ι$_1$/Ι$_3$values obtained from solutions of the ibuprofen-conjugated prodrugs are summarized in relation to those of ibuprofen in water and in aqueous solutions of the original PEG, PN, and several ordinary surfactants. We believe that the fully hydrophilic PEG is completely hydrated and forms no hydrophobic pocket by segment aggregation. These results indicate that the probe environment is significantly hydrophobic, particularly in the solution of prodrug PN, for which the ratio is similar to that obtained from typical micelles of surfactants. The results suggest, therefore, that the present synthetic method is very useful for preparing PEG-based prodrugs from pharmaceuticals having carboxyl functionalities.

We have synthesized various types of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-ibuprofen conjugates by nucleophilic substitution of bromo-terminated PEG with ibuprofen-Cs salt. The conversion of the terminal hydroxyl groups to bromo-termini was quantitative, as was the drug conjugation process, which suggests that the present synthetic method is very useful for the preparation of PEG-based prodrugs from pharmaceuticals having carboxyl functionalities. The drug-release behavior of the prodrugs was examined in both phosphate buffer (PBS, pH 7.4) and rat plasma. From the drug-release behavior in PBS, we determined that each prodrug has high storage stability. The drug-release rate was observed to be much faster in rat plasma than in buffer solution as a result of the acceleration effect provided by enzymes present in the plasma. The drug-release rate in rat plasma depends on the degree of molecular aggregation of the prodrugs, which can be changed effectively by the nature of their spacer groups or by the use of Pluronic as the polymer carrier.

The dielectric properties of $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(BST) and MgO-doped BST ceramics were investigated for tunable microwave applications by sol-gel method. The effects of MgO mixing with BST. It is observed that Mg substitution into BST causes a shift in the cubic-tetragonal BST Phase transition peak to a lower temperature. MgO-substituted BST and MgO-mixed phases exhibit homogeneous and broadened BST phase transition peaks. Mg substitution into BST has a significant effect on the grain sife reduction. Dielectric constant and loss is inhanced with decrease MgO dopant.

This study reviewed the reduction effect of autogenous shrinkage of high strength mortar by plant edible oils based on existing studies, in an effort to find the method of reducing autogenous shrinkage of high strength concrete. To summarize the results, first as characteristics of fresh mortar, substitution of plant edible oil showed slight reduction in liquidity. Compressive strength was reduce at age of 28 days compared to plain mix regardless of type and substitution ratio. Ratio of change in the length of autogenous shrinkage of high strength mortar by plant oils was found to reduce compared to the plain, and the reduction effect was most satisfactorγ in bean oil.

Rate constants have been measured spectrophotometrically for the nucleophilic substitution reactions of p-and m-nitrophenyl 2-furoates (4 and 5, respectively) with alkali metal ethoxides ($EtO^-M^+$) in absolute ethanol at 25$^{\circ}$C. The reactivity of $EtO^-M^+$ toward 4 is in the order $EtO^-K^+$ > $EtO^-Na^+$> $EtO^-Li^+$ > $EtO^-K^+$+ 18-crown-6 ether. This is further confirmed by an ion pairing treatment method. The present result indicates that (1) ion paired $EtO^-M^+$ is more reactive than dissociated $EtO^-$ ; (2) the alkali metal ions ($K^+,\;Na^+,\;Li^+$) behave as a catalyst; (3) the catalytic effect increases with increasing the size of the metal ion. A similar result has been obtained for the reaction of 5, however, the catalytic effects shown by the metal ions are more significant in the reaction of 5 than in that of 4.

The gas-phase nucleophilic substitution reaction of pentafluoroanisole with $OH^-$ and ${NH_2}^-$ nucleophiles have been studied theoretically using the AM1 method. Three reaction channels, $S_N2$, IPSO and $S_NAr$ (scheme 1), are all very exothermic so that all are accessible despite the varying central energy barriers which are much lower than the reactants level. In the IPSO and $S_NAr$ channels, the reactants form directly a stable ,${\sigma}$-anion complex which proceeds to form a proton transfer complex via a transition barrier corresponding to a loose ${\pi}$-type complex with the F-(or ${OCH_3}^-$) leaving group. Due to a greater number of probable reaction sites available for $S_NAr$ compared to the other two processes, the $S_NAr$ channel is favored as experimentally observed.

We investigate the optimal consumption and portfolio strategies of an agent who has a constant elasticity of substitution (CES) utility function under the negative wealth constraint. We use the martingale method to derive the closed-form solution, and we give some numerical implications.

We reported a new method to enhance the photoluminescence (PL) properties of $Eu^{3+}$ ions doped $Gd_2Mo_4O_{15}$ phosphors via cation substitution. With the aid of conventional sol-gel method, a series of $Eu^{3+}$ ions doped $Gd_{2(1-x)}Y_{2x}Mo_4O_{15}$ phosphors were prepared. The prepared samples emitted red light when excited at 393 nm. Moreover, when part of the $Gd^{3+}$ ions was substituted by the $Y^{3+}$ ions, the PL emission intensity of the studied samples was enhanced and the optimal doping concentration for $Y^{3+}$ ions was 30 mol%. The calculated CIE coordinate (0.663,0.337) was situated in the red region. Furthermore, the thermal quenching behaviors of the synthesized $Eu^{3+}$ ions doped $Gd_{2(1-x)}Y_{2x}Mo_4O_{15}$ phosphors were studied. At last, we also packaged a red-emitting light-emitting diode device by integrating the obtained phosphors and a near-ultraviolet chip to verify the applications of the $Eu^{3+}$ ions doped $Gd_{2(1-x)}Y_{2x}Mo_4O_{15}$ phosphors for indoor lighting.

Using the $(Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}){TiO_3}$(BST) powders prepared by the Sol-Gel method, the EST thick films were fabricated on the ${Al_2}{O_3}$ substrates coated with Pt by the screen printing method. Compared with pure EST thick films, the structural and dielectric properties of the EST thick films doped with 1${\sim}$10 wt % MgO were investigated. It was observed that the Mg substitution into EST causes a shift in the cubic-tetragonal EST phase transition peak to a lower temperature. The microstructure of the EST substituted with Mg was homogeneous and dense. Mg substitution into EST had a significant effect on the grain size reduction. Dielectric constant was decreased with increasing the MgO content and temperature. In the case of EST thick films doped with 1 wt% MgO, the relative permittivity and dielectric loss were 158] and 1.4 % at 1 MHz.
