Weakly coordinating anions show little affinity for binding to unfunctionalized iron(II) porphyrins. The electron-deficient 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphinatoiron(II) compound is utilized in this study to demonstrate solution coordination by chloride, bromide and acetate ions. The binding strength of anions to the iron(II) porphyrin is reflected by a systematic change in pyrrole proton chemical shift in $^1H$ NMR spectra; the pyrrole resonance moves downfield when the ${\sigma}$-donor ability of anions is decreased.

Calix[4]crown-6-2,4-bis(4-aminobutyl ether), which has a crown-6 moiety at the 1,3-position and amino function at the 2,4-position, was prepared as an intermediate for the subsequent synthesis of calix[4]crown-6-containing polyamide and polyimide using adipoyl chloride and 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic dianhydride. The chemical structures were characterized by IR, $^{1}H NMR$ spectroscopy and elemental analysis, and some of their physical properties, including their thermal behavior, were examined. The ion binding characteristics of the monomer and polymers for alkali metal and alkali earth metal ions were measured by liquid-liquid extraction from the aqueous phase into the organic phase. It has been observed that polyamide has a high binding ability towards various metal cations as compared to polyimide, which showed cesium ion selectivity.

The chloride penetration in concrete structures is influenced by many factors such as types of cement and admixture proportion. Therefore, the effects of these factors on chloride diffusion must be correctly considered. The conventional diffusion analysis also neglected the existence of reinforcing bar in concrete structures. The purpose of the present paper is therefore to investigate the effect of reinforcing bar on the chloride diffusion in concrete structures. For this purpose, a comprehensive finite element analyses have been conducted to obtain chloride penetration profile. The results indicate that the chlorides are accumulated in front of a reinforcing bar and that the accumulation is much larger for the case of large diameter bars. The higher accumulation of chloride at bar location causes much faster corrosion of reinforcing steel. It can be concluded from the present study that the effects of reinforcing bars must be considered in chloride diffusion analysis for more realistic prediction of durable life of concrete structures.

A Thermodynamic study on the interaction of bovine calf thymus DNA with new designed Pd(II) complex (Ethylendiamine- 8-hydroxyquinolinato Palladium(II) chloride) was studied by using isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) at 27 ${^{\circ}C}$ in Tris buffer solution at pH = 7.5. The enthalpies of Pd(II) complex + DNA interaction are reported and analysed in terms of the new solvation theory. It was indicated that there are three identical and non-cooperative sites for Pd(II) complex. The binding of a Pd(II) complex is endothermic with association equilibrium constants of 428.03 m$M^{-1}$ at 27 ${^{\circ}C}$. The binding of Pd(II) complex can cause some changes in the stability of the DNA at low and high Pd(II) complex concentrations. Our results suggested that this complex might interact with DNA as an intercalator, thus interfering with DNA replication and cell proliferation.

The present study evaluate the chloride extracion under electrochemical chloride extraction method. Chloride was penetrated into the concrete from external reservoir using a 4M NaCl solution, and an electrochemical chloride extraction method was applied after the curing period of 1 year. The current density was constantly kept 1000 mA/m² for coulostatic application with the variation in potential difference. The duration of the ECE treatment was 2, 4, 8 weeks, respectively. The residual chloride concentration at all depths decreased, and the chloride concentration decreased as the application period increased. After the application period of 8 weeks, 62.9 to 77.6 % of chloride extracted in the total chloride profile, and 77.7 to 99.5 % of chloride extracted in the free chloride profile. In particular, the concentration of free chloride at a depth of 7 mm or more from the concrete surface was 0.01 % or less by cement. In addition, it was confirmed that the bound chloride could be extracted by the electrochemical chloride extraction.

Critical chloride content for corrosion initiation is a crucial parameter in determining the durability and integrity of reinforced concrete structures, however, the value is still ambiguous. Most of the studies reporting critical threshold chloride content have involved the experimental measurement of the average amount of the total chloride content at arbitrary time. The majority of these researches have not dealt with this issue combined with carbonation of concrete, although carbonation can significantly impact on critical threshold chloride content. Furthermore, the studies have tried to define the critical chloride content within the scope of their experimental concrete mix proportion at arbitrary time. However, critical chloride content for corrosion initiation is known to be affected by a lot of factors including cement content, type of binder, chloride binding, concentration of hydroxyl ions, and so on. It is necessary to define the unified formulation to express the critical chloride content for various mix proportions of concrete. The purpose of this study is to establish an analytical formulation of the critical chloride content of concrete. In this formulation, affecting factors, such as mix proportion, environment, chemical evolution of pore solution with elapsed time, carbonation of concrete and so on are taken into account. Based on the Gouda's experimental results, critical chloride content is defined as a function of $[Cl^-]$ vs. $[OH^-]$ in pore solution. This is expressed as free chloride content with mass unit to consider time evolution of $[OH^-]$ content in pore solution using the numerical simulation programme of cementitious materials, HYMOSTRUC. The result was compared with other experimental studies and various codes. It is believed that the approach suggested in this study can provide a good solution to determine the reasonable critical chloride content with original source of chloride ions, for example, marine sand at initial time, and sea water penetration later on.

A series of classical G109 type concrete specimens was exposed to cyclic wet and dry ponding with 15 w/o NaCl solution for approximately five years. Mix design variables included 1) three cement alkalinities (EqA of 0.97, 0.52, and 0.36) and 2) three water-cement ratios (0.50, 0.41, and 0.37). To determine the corrosion initiation time, corrosion potential and macro-cell current between top and bottom bars were monitored. Subsequent to corrosion initiation, specimens were autopsied and visually inspected. Concrete powder samples were collected from top rebar trace and chloride concentration was measured. Also, time-to-corrosion, $T_i$, for specimens of the individual mix designs was represented using Weibull analysis. Time-to-corrosion was a distributed parameter; and because of this, corrosion initiation of four identical specimens for each mix varied, often over a relatively wide range. Specimens fabricated using the lowest water cement ratio and the highest alkalinity cement exhibited the longest time-to-corrosion initiation and the highest chloride threshold levels. Time-to-corrosion did not increase monotonically with cement alkalinity, however, presumably as a consequence of relatively high $Cl^-$ binding in the lower pore water pH range. The chloride threshold level, $Cl_{th}$, increased with increasing $T_i$ and, consequently, was greatest for the highest cement alkalinity specimens.

The corrosion of reinforcement induced by chloride ingress is the main deterioration cause of coastal reinforced concrete structures. In this paper, an experimental study was executed to investigate the effect of the kinds and replacement ratios of mineral admixtures (fly-ash, ground granulated blast-furnace slag silica fume and meta-kaolin), W/B and curing time on chloride diffusion of concrete by long-time immersion test in chloride solution. According to the result, the use of mineral admixtures was effective in improving the resistant to chloride ingress. The chloride penetration depth and diffusion coefficient were decreased as replacement ratios of mineral admixture were increased. The kind and replacement ratio of the mineral admixture are more important than the W/B in reducing the chloride diffusion of concrete. Chloride binding capacity of mineral admixture, which was sequenced in the order of MK

The purpose of this paper was to investigate the bioavailability of sulfadimethoxine in pathological rats and rabbits pretreated with carbon tetrachloride and mercuric chloride. The results are as follows: The absorption of sulfadimethoxine was decreased in rats damaged liver and kidney as compared with that of normal rats. Especially, absorption of sulfadimethoxine in rats damaged liver was more decreased than that of rats damaged kidney. Blood level of sulfadimethoxine administered orally was mostly decreased significantly in rabbits damaged kidney and liver, and in rabbits severely damaged kidney the blood level of sulfadimethoxine was not significant at 4 to 6 hours. Urinary clearance of sulfadimethoxine in rabbits severely damaged kidney was inhibited at 5 to 6 hours. but in rabbit damaged liver. Hepatic clearance of sulfadimethoxine was accelerated in rabbits damaged kidney but in rabbits damaged liver. Protein binding percentage of sulfadimethoxine was not affected by the various concentration of carbon tetrachloride and mercuric chloride respectively.

The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) in some alcohol-aqueous solutions were determined by UV-Vis spectroscopy at 25$25^{\circ}C$. The CMC of CPC was increased with the addition of methanol and ethanol, while with the addition of propanol it was decreased because of the solubilization of propanol into the micelle of CPC. The ratio (${\beta}$) of the number of counterions to that of surfactant ions associated into micelles in alcohol (methanol, ethanol and propanol) aqueous solutions was measured by using the Shinoda $equation^{17}$. The ratio of counterion binding to the CPC micelles in methanol-and ethanol-water mixtures was larger than in pure water, while the ratio in propanol-water mixture might be much decreased.
