Pentiptycene and its derivatives having cavity, ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking prohibition, and AIEE functionalities were synthesized. 6,7-Dibromo-1,4-dihydropentiptycene-1,4-epoxide was obtained from the reaction of 6,7-dibromo-1,4-dihydronaphthalene-1,4-epoxide and anthracene. All the synthesized compounds were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. Prepared pentiptycene derivatives could be useful precursor for organofluorene compounds which could be an excellent candidate for electronic devices such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLED's) and chemical sensor.

A new series of silaanthracenophanes 2-5 composed of 1,8-diethynylanthracene unit has been synthesized from silylation reactions of 1,8-di(lithioethynyl)anthracene with 1,3-dichloro-1,1,3,3-tetraalkyldisiloxanes and 1,2-dichlorotetramethyldisilane. The silaanthracenophane products 2-4 were characterized by spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallographic analysis.

To convert sewage sludge to energy, drying-gasification characteristics during microwave heating were studied. During the gasification of carbon dioxide, the main products were gas, followed by char, and tar in terms of the amount. The main components of the producer gas were carbon monoxide and hydrogen including a small amount of methane and light hydrocarbons. They showed a sufficient heating value as a fuel. The generated tar is gravimetric tar, which is total tar. As light tars, benzene (light aromatic tar) was a major light tar. Naphthalene, anthracene, and pyrene (light polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon tars) were also generated, but in relatively small amounts. Ammonia and hydrogen cyanide (precursor for NO_x) were generated from thermal decomposition of tar containing protein and nitrogen in sewage sludge. In the case of sludge char, its average pore diameter was small, but specific area, pore volume, and adsorption amounts were relatively large, resulting in superior adsorption characteristics.

It is an established fact that most of the carcinogens implicate bay-region diol epoxides as the ultimate carcinogenic metabolites. These electrophiles react with nucleophilic sites in the cells to form abducts. It is the formation of carcinogenic-DNA adducts that is thought to initiate carcinogenesis. In our previous study we have reported chemopreventive property of Ginseng on 7,12-dimethylbenz (a)anthracene (DMBA) induced skin papillomagenesis in male Swiss albino mice. In this study we have examined the effect on formation of DMBA-DNA adducts in rat hepatocytes pretreated with ginseng. Primary cultures of rat hepatocytes were used. The cells wets treated with ginseng for 24 hrs and then with DMBA (iOn) for 18 hrs. Cells were then harvested, their DNA was isolated and analyzed by P)2 labelling. A significant reduction in the levels of DMBA-DNA adduces (adducts/108 nucleotides) was observed in all cultures pretreated with ginseng. The viability of cells was not affected by pre-treatment with ginseng. Our finding suggests that ginseng block or suppresses the events associated with chemical carcinogenesis by inhibiting metabolic activation of the carcinogens.

Effects of acanthopanax cortex extracts on glutathion S-transferase (GST), glutathion peroxidase (GSH-px) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities related to 7,12-dimethyl-benz(a)anthracene(DMBA) metabolism and on DMBA-induced mutagenicity were investigated in this study. From the comparative study of three extracts, it was found that butanol extract was more potent than other extracts in increment of GST, GSH-px and SOD activities and in inhibitory effects of lipoperoxide formation of liver. Also ether and butanol extracts inhibited DMBA-induced mutagenicity, showing 33% to 36% of inhibition at maximum, when ether and butanol extracts were administered to rats intraperitoneally.

We have applied self-assembled monolayer to make high performance and stable OTFT on the organic gate dielectric. The ${\beta}$-phenethyltrichlorosilane (SAM) was coated on the organic gate dielectric and then active layer was printed. Significant improvements in on-currents and threshold voltage shift were achieved for the SAM treated devices compared to device without SAM.

Hetero-dimer anions of naphthalene (Np), anthracene (An), phenanthrene (Ph) and pyrene (Py) were investigated using the time-of-flight mass spectrometer (TOF-MS), anion photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) and theoretical calculation. There are two possible geometries with their electron affinity (EA) difference: parallel displaced (PD) and T-shaped. Dispersion force plays a key role in PD structure with the formation of a new anionic core while ${\pi}$-hydrogen interaction plays a key role in T-shaped structure with the monomer anionic core. The optimized structures and charge distributions can simply be explained by the relative difference of EA.

Derivatives of penicillanic acid sulfones are known to be irreversible inhibitors of $\beta$-lactamase. Eight 6-tricyclic methylene penicillanic acid sulfones were prepared, and their $\beta$-lactamase inhibitory activities were evaluated against $\beta$-lactamase types I, II, III and IV. Among the tricycles attached to 6-exomethylenepenam sulfones, thiazolobenzimidazole(12a-12b), fluorene(12c), and carbazole(12e), showed inhibitory activity on type I, II and III $\beta$-lactamase. But phenanthrene(12d), and anthracene(12f-12h) derivatives showed little $\beta$-lactamase inhibitory activity. The synergic effects of the selected compound(l2b) in 1:4 combination with piperacillin showed some protection to piperacillin for the resistant strains of E. coli DC2 and P. aeruginosa 1771.

Conjugated-non-conjugated alternating block copolymers containing distyrylarylene units were synthesized via Wittig reaction for chemiluminescent fluorophores. The polymers were differentiated from others by the presence of aromatic unit in the chromophoric block. When UV-VIS, photoluminescence and chemiluminescence spectra of these materials were compared with copolymers, a strong bathochromic effect was observed. A more pronounced red shift and higher chemiluminscence efficiency were observed in the polymer with anthracene ring. Sodium salicylate-catalyzed reaction of bis(2-carbopentyloxy-3,5,6-trichlorophenyl) oxalate with hydrogen peroxide produced a strong chemiluminescence from blue to yellow-green light emission with wavelength of 450-537 nm in the presence of the fluorophore. The chemiluminescent intensity decayed exponentially. The glow of chemiluminescence maintained more than l2 hr and was visible with the naked eye.
