A cis-1,2-dichloroethylene (cis-DCE)-degrading anaerobic bacterium, Clostridium sp. strain KYT-1, was isolated from a sediment sample collected from a landfill site in Nanji-do, Seoul, Korea. The KYT-1 strain is a gram-positive, endospore-forming, motile, rod-shaped anaerobic bacterium, of approximately $2.5{\sim}3.0\;{\mu}m$ in length. The degradation of cis-DCE is closely related with the growth of the KYT-1 strain, and it was stopped when the growth of the KYT-1 strain became constant. Although the pathway of cis-DCE degradation by strain KYT-1 remains to be further elucidated, no accumulation of the harmful intermediate, vinyl chloride (VC), was observed during anaerobic cis-DCE degradation. Strain KYT-1 proved able to degrade a variety of volatile organic compounds, including VC, isomers of DCE (1,1-dichloroethylene, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene, and cis-DCE), trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, and 1,1,2-trichloroethane. Strain KYT-1 degraded cis-DCE at a range of temperatures from $15\;to\;37^{\circ}C$, with an optimum at $30^{\circ}C$, and at a pH range of 5.5 to 8.5, with an optimum at 7.0.

Aerobic cometabolism of cis-1,2-dichloroethylene (c-DCE) and c-DCE epoxide by a butane-grown mixed culture was evaluated. Transformation of c-DCE resulted in the concomitant generation of c-DCE epoxide. Chloride release studies showed nearly complete oxidative dechlorination of c-DCE (approximately 75%). Mass spectrometry confirmed tile presence of a compound with mass-to-charge-fragment ratios of 112, 83, 48, and 35. The values are in agreement with the spectra of a chemically synthesized c-DCE epoxide. Some evidences indicating the involvement of the monooxygenase in the transformation of c-DCE epoxide are: 1) $O_2$ requirement for c-DCE transformation and butane degradation; 2) butane inhibition on c-DCE transformation and vice versa; 3) the inactivation of c-DCE and c-DCE epoxide transformations by acetylene (a known monooxygenase inactivator); and 4) tire inhibition of c-DCE epoxide transformation by c-DCE.

The production of microbiologically enriched cultures that degrade cis- 1,2-dichloroethylene(DCE) under anaerobic conditions was investigated. Among 80 environmental samples, 19 displayed significant degradation of $10{\mu}M$ cis-DCE during 1 month of anaerobic incubation, and one sediment sample collected at a landfill area (Nanji-do, Seoul, Korea) showed the greatest degradation ($94\%$). When this sediment culture was subcultured repeatedly, the ability to degrade cis-DCE gradually decreased. However, under Fe(III)-reducing conditions, cis-DCE degradation by the subculture was found to be maintained effectively. In the Fe(III)-reducing subculture, vinyl chloride (VC) was also degraded at the same extent as cis-DCE No accumulation of VC during the cis-DCE degradation was observed. Thus, Fe(III)-reducing microbes might be involved in the anaerobic degradation of the chlorinated ethenes. However, the subcultures established with Fe(III) could function even in the absence of Fe(III), showing that the degradation of cis-DCE and VC was not directly coupled with the Fe(III) reduction. Consequently, the two series of enrichment cultures could not be obtained that degrade both cis-DCE and VC in the presence or absence of Fe(III). Considering the lack of VC accumulation, both cultures reported herein may involve interesting mechanism(s) for the microbial remediation of environments contaminated with chlorinated ethenes. A number of fermentative reducers (microbes) which are known to reduce Fe(III) during their anaerobic growth are potential candidates involved in cir-DCE degradation in the presence and absence of Fe(III).

The tetrachloroethylene (PCE) dehalogenase of Clostridium bifermentans DPH-1 (a halorespiring organism) was purified, cloned, and sequenced. This enzyme is a homodimer with a molecular mass of ca. 70 kDa and exhibits dehalogenation of dichloroethylene isomers along with PCE and trichloroethylene (TCE). Broad range of substrate specificity for chlorinated aliphatic compounds (PCE, TCE, cis-1,2-dichloroethylene, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene, 1,1-dichloroethylene, 1,2-dichloropropene, and 1,1,2-trichloroethane) for this enzyme was also observed. A mixture of propyl iodide and titanium citrate caused a light-reversible inhibition of enzymatic activity suggesting the involvement of a corrinoid cofactor. A partial sequence (81 bp) of the encoding gene for PCE dehalogenase was amplified and sequenced with degenerateprimers designed from the N-terminal sequence (27 amino acid residues). Southern analysis of C. bifermentans genomic DNA using the polymerase chain reaction product as a probe revealed restriction fragment bands. A 5.0 kb ClaI fragment, harboring the relevant gene (designated pceC) was cloned (pDEHAL5) and the complete nucleotide sequence of pceC was determined. The gene showed homology mainly with microbial membrane proteins and no homology with any known dehalogenase, suggesting a distinct PCE dehalogenase. So, C. bifermentans could play some important role in the initial breakdown of PCE and other chlorinated aliphatic compounds in sites contaminated with mixtures of halogenated substances.

본 연구에서는 항암제로서의 가능성이 있는 10-membered enediyne(6)의 선구물질로 사용될 수 있는 14-membered phenylthio enediyne lactone을 성공적으로 합성할 수 있었다. 14-membered lactone은 Ireland-Clasisen rearrangement에 의해 10-membered enediyne(11)으로 변환되며 이물질(11)은 최종물질(8)로 전환될 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 이 14-membered enediyned lactone(23)은 DCC/PTSA/Pyridine 하에 enediyne hydroxyl acid(22)의 락톤화 반응에 의해 합성되었다. Enediyne hydroxyl acid는 Pd(0) 촉매하에 methyl pentynoate(19)와 enyne alcohol(17)을 cis-1,2-dichloroethylene과 연속적으로 coupling 반응을 하여 좋은 수득율로 얻을 수 있었다. 그 때 필요한 enyne alcohol(17)은 vinyltin(12)을 출발물질로 하여 성공적으로 얻을 수 있었다.

Among the combination of 4 different second metals and 3 different noble metals, Ni 10%-Pd 1%/hematite (Ni(10)-Pd(1)/H) showed best tetrachloroethylene (PCE) removal (75.8%) and production of non-toxic products (39.8%) in closed batch reactors under an anaerobic condition. The effect of environmental factors (pH, contents of Ni and Pd in catalyst, and hydrogen gas concentration) on the reductive dechlorination of PCE by Pd-Ni/hematite catalysts was investigated. PCE was degraded less at the condition of Ni(5)/H (13.7%) than at the same condition with Ni(10)/H (20.6%). Removals of PCE were rarely influenced by the experimental condition of different Pd amounts (Pd(1)/H and Pd(3)/H). Acidic to neutral pH conditions were favorable to the degradation of PCE, compared to the alkaline condition (pH 10). Increasing Ni contents from 1 to 10% increased the PCE removal to 89.8% in 6 hr. However, the removal decreased to 74.2% at Ni content of 20%. Meanwhile, increasing Pd contents to 6% showed no difference in PCE removal at Pd content of more than 1%. Increasing H2 concentration increased the removal of PCE until 4% H2 which was maximumly applied in this study. Chlorinated products such as trichloroethylene, 1,1-dichloroethylene, cis-1,2-dichloroethylene, trans-1,2-dichloroethylene, and vinyl chloride were not observed while PCE was transformed to acetylene (24%), ethylene (5%), and ethane (11%) by Ni(10)-Pd(1)/H catalyst in 6hr.

본 논문에서는 황화철($FeS,\;FeS_{2}$) 유기 용매의 환원적 분해 반응과의 표면특성의 관계에 대해서 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. hexachloroethane(HCA)은 수소첨가반응, 탈염소제거반응과 탈수소탈염소화반응으로 pentachloroethane(PCA), tetrachloroethylene(PCE), trichloroethylene(TCE)와 cis-1,2-dichloroethylene(cis-1,2-DCE)로 분해되었다. FeS와 $FeS_{2}$를 반응 매개물로 HCA에 대한 반응에서 FeS는 $FeS_{2}$보다 분해반응 속도가 빠르게 나타났다. FeS와 $FeS_{2}$의 표면 특성 연구에서 각 광물질에 대한 친수성 표면 자리(Ns)를 정량적으로 계산하기 위해서 비표면적 값($107.0470m^{2}/g$와 $92.6374m^{2}/g$)과 표면 전위를 측정에 측정된 $PH_{ZPC}(FeS,\;PH_{ZPC}=7.42,\;FeS_{2},\;PH_{ZPC}=7.80)$ 값을 이용해서 계산한 결과 FeS와 $FeS_{2}$의 $N_{s}$값은 각각 $0.053\;site/nm^{2},\;0.205\;site/nm^{2}$으로 나타났다. 그리고 0.2 g/L Fe광물질에 대한 실질적인 친수성 표면 농도는 각각 $3.303{\times}10^{-6}\;mol/L$와 $1.102{\times}10^{-5}\;mol/L$ 나타났다. $FeS_{2}$는 FeS에 비해 훨씬 친수성 표면임을 실험 결과 확인하였다. FeS와 $FeS_{2}$의 두 광물질 중에서 유기 용매의 환원 반응 속도는 FeS가 훨씬 빠르게 나타났다.

Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (TCE), critical pollutants to human health and groundwater ecosystems, are managed by groundwater quality standards (GQS) in South Korea. However, there are no GQSs for their by-products, such as cis-dichloroethylene (DCE) and vinyl chloride (VC) produced through the dechlorination process of PCE and TCE. Therefore, in this study, we monitored PCE, TCE, cis-DCE, and VC in 111 national groundwater wells for three years (2016 to 2018) to evaluate their distributions, a biological dechlorination possibility, and human risk assessment. The detection frequency of them was 30.2% for PCE, 45.1% for TCE, 43.9% for cis-DCE and 13.4% for VC. The four chlorinated compounds were commonly detected in 21 out of 111 wells. In the results of statistical analysis with 21 wells data, DO and ORP also had a negative correlation with four organic chlorinated compounds, while EC and sulfate has a positive correlation with the compounds. This indicates that the 21 wells were relatively met with suitable environments for a biological dechlorination reaction compared to the other wells. Finally, cis-DCE had a non-carcinogenic risk of 10^-1 and the carcinogenic risk of VC was 10^-6 or higher. Through this study, the distribution status of the four chlorinated compounds in groundwater in South Korea and the necessity of preparing plans to manage cis-DCE and VC were confirmed.

본 연구에서는 백금착물, $[PtA_2Cl_2]\;(A:\;NH_3$ 및 en과 그 유도체)형의 항암성 메카니즘의 첫 단계에서 두 개의 염소 원자가 분리된다고 가정하고 이 분리의 용이성을 Extended Huckel법에 의해서 양자화학적 양을 조사하였다. 백금착물의 전체에너지가 높을수록, Pt의 d-전자의 전이가 용이할수록, Cl의 net charge의 (-)값이 클수록, Pt-Cl사이의 Cl의 이탈이 용이하여진다고 생각된다. 그리고 실험적으로 항암성이 있다고 보고된 Pt(II)착물에서 Cl의 이탈용이도가 컸다. 따라서 $PtLCl_2$형 항암제(L:NH$_3$, en)$에서 항암작용의 첫 단계로서 Cl의 해리과정이 중요하다고 예측된다.
