신농약 개발을 목적으로 isosterism 이론을 근거로 하여 선도화합물, 2-imino-1,3-thiazoline의 분자 수정을 통하여 분자내에 1,3-thiazole과 urea기가 포함된 새로운 화합물 2를 디자인하였다. N-Methylthiourea 5와 bromoacetonitrile을 에탄올 용액 중에서 반응시켜 위치 선택적으로 생성된 2,4-diimino-1,3-thiazole 4를 phenylisocyanate 유도체와 반응하여 화합물 2의 tautomer인 7을 얻었고 이것의 구조를 여러 가지 스펙트럼($^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR, FT-IR, HRMS)과 X-ray 결정 데이터로부터 확인하였다. 화합물 7의 구조이성질체 8은 열역학적으로 불안정한 중간체 2,4-diimino-1,3-thiazole 6을 통하여 생성되었다.

Density functional theory calculations are applied to investigate the intramolecular proton transfer in the tautomers of thymine radical cation and its hydrated complexes with one water molecule. The optimized structures and energies for 6 tautomers and 6 transition states of thymine radical cation are calculated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level. It is predicted that the order of relative stability for the keto and enol tautomers of thymine radical cation is the same with that of the neutral thymine tautomers, though the enol tautomers are more stabilized with respect to the di-keto form in the radical cation than in the neutral state. A new channel of proton transfer from >C5-$CH_{3}$ of thymine is found to open and have the lowest energy barrier of other proton transfer processes in thymine radical cation. The roles of hydration are also investigated with thymine-water 1 : 1 complex ions. The presence of water significantly lowers the barrier of the proton transfer, which clearly shows the assisting role of hydration even with one water molecule

The absorption and fluorescence spectral properties of piroxicam (PRX) in the hydrogenbonding solvents show the most sensitive dependence on the concentration ranging from 8 x 10$^{_5}$ to 2 x10$^{_5}$ M. These are attributed to both the solvent-mediated ground-state intermolecular proton transfer (GSIerPT) leading to formation of the ground state anion and the excited-state intmmolecular proton transfer (ESIraPT). The concentration dependences of the time-resolved emission kinetics at both room temperature and 77 K have also been investigated. It is shown that in the excited state, the ESIraPT of PRX is the dominant process to form a keto tautomer at the high concentration, whereas at the low concentration the excited-state conformational change of the anion is an additional process leading to formation of a zwitterion. The ESI~PT of PRX in the hydrogenbonding solvent is coupled with the ultrafast excited-state solvent reorganization.

Tautomerism of pyrimidine base cytosine has been comparatively examined on nanoparticle and roughened plate surfaces of silver, gold, and copper by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The SERS spectrum was found to be different depending on the metals and their substrate conditions suggesting the dissimilar population of various tautomers of cytosine on the surfaces. The ab initio calculations were performed at the levels of B3LYP, HF, and MP2 levels of theory with the LanL2DZ basis set to estimate the energetic stability of the tautomers with the metal complexes as well as the gas phase state. The amino group and N3-coordinated tautomer was predicted to be more favorable for bonding to Au, whereas the hydroxyl and N1-coordinated zwitter ionic form is most stable with Ag and Cu as a bidentate form from the DFT calculation. The binding energy with the Ag atom is calculated to be smaller than those with the Au and Cu atoms in line with the temperature-dependent SERS spectra of cytosine.

The most stable adsorption structures and energies of four tautomers of 3-methyl-5-pyrazolone (keto-1, enol-1, keto-2, and enol-2) on Ge(100) surfaces were investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The enol-1, keto-2, and enol-2 tautomers, but not the keto-1 tautomer, were found to exhibit stable adsorption structures on the Ge(100)-$2{\times}1$ surface. Of these three adsorption structures, that of enol-2 is the most stable.

The tautomerism in 3-phenyl-4-arylazo-5-isoxazolones 1 was examined by $^1H-NMR$ spectra of $^15N-labeled$ compound and by HMO method. Both spectra data $(^1H-NMR\;and\;IR)$ and bonding energies are in support of the assignment of the hydrazone structure to such compounds. It is further shown that intermolecular and intramolecular hydrogen bondings favor the hydrazone tautomer.

Despite the advances made in the past few decades in cancer chemotherapy, many conventional anticancer drugs display relatively poor selectivity for cancer cells. The nonselectivity of anticancer drugs and the development of anticancer drug resistance have been recognized as serious limitations in their clinical usefulness. Therefore, a major challenge in cancer chemotherapy is the development of new anticancer agents with improved selectivity for tumor cells as well as the prevention of the host cell resistance, both of which result in the improvement of therapeutic effect against cancer cells. Cyclophosphamide (CP), a widely used anticancer agent, is a prodrug that is activated by hepatic microsomal mixed-function oxidase (MFO) catalyzed C$_4$- hydroxylation. The resulting 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide (4-OH-CP) is converted to the ring-opened tautomer to aldophosphamide (Aldo) which subsequently undergoes a base- catalyzed ${\beta}$-elimination to generate cytotoxic phosphoramide mustard (PDA) and acrolein. The cytotoxic activity of CP is attributed to the aziridinium ion species derived from PDA that cross-links interstrand DNA.

The structurally rigid $\alpha$-(o-alkylphenyl) acetophenone derivatives lacking $\beta$-hydrogens, 3,3-dimethyl-2-o-tolylibdan-1-one and 2-o-tolyl-benzofuran-3-one, were prepared and their photochemical behaviors were examined. The former did not give any photoproduct while the latter turned into its enol tautomer. The difference of reactivity of two ketones was attributed to aromatic character of the extol of the benzofuranone. It was concluded that the reaction occurred via photoinduced 1,3-H transfer.

본 연구에서는 아임계 및 초임계 이산화탄소하의 에틸 아세토아세테이트의 케토-에놀 토토머릭 평형상수를 후리에 적외선 분광기를 이용하여 세 가지 다른 온도에서 측정하였다. 케토-에놀 토토머릭 평형상수의 용매에 대한 밀도 의존성을 연구하기 위하여 정온하에서 이산화탄소의 압력을 변화시켰다. 용매인 이산화탄소의 밀도를 증가 시키면, 케토 토토머의 양이 증가하게 되어 케토-에놀 토토머릭 평형상수값이 감소한다. 에틸 아세토아세테이트의 케토-에놀 토토머릭 평형상수의 밀도의존성을 연구하기 위하여 변형된 격자유체수소결합 모델을 적용하였다.

The potential energy surface (PES) for the dissociation of the 2-hydroxypyridine (2-HP) radical cation was determined from G3//B3LYP calculations, including the loss of CO, HCN, and HNC. The formation of the 1H-pyrrole radical cation by decarbonylation through a more stable tautomer, the 2-pyridone (2-PY) radical cation, was the most favorable dissociation pathway. Kinetic analysis by the Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel-Marcus model calculations was carried out based on the obtained PES. It is proposed that the dissociation occurs after a rapid tautomerization to 2-$PY^{{\cdot}+}$, and that most of the ions generated by ionization of 2-HP have the structure of 2-$PY^{{\cdot}+}$ at equilibrium above the tautomerization barrier.
