A series of new 4-(pyridin-4-yl)-(3-methoxy-5-methylphenyl)-1H-pyrazoles (6a-k & 7a-l) has been rationally designed based on the structure of the lead compound KIST301080, a selective ROS receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in order to study the activity of ROS of this new class of inhibitors. The compounds were synthesized and screened against ROS kinase, where compound 6h showed moderate inhibitory activity with an $IC_{50}$ value of $6.25{\mu}M$. The study emphasized the importance of the acetonitrile group at the pyrazole ring and also the importance of having a hydrogen bond donor on the distal phenyl ring linked to the pyridine moiety.

Novel pyrazoline (4) was synthesized from chalcone (3) which was prepared from 2'-hydroxy-l'acetonaphthone (1) and 4-methoxy benzaldehyde (2). Pyrazoline (4) forms resonance assisted hydrogen bond between naphthol hydroxyl group and imine nitrogen in a pyrazoline ring. Pyrazoline (4) shows Poly ADP-ribose Polymerase (PARP) cleavage ability as a proof of apoptosis in cancer cell, which reveals its anti-cancer property.

Photocyclizable poly(cinnam-4'-yl methyl methacrylate) derivatives bearing methoxy benzene (PMCMMA), anthracene (PACMMA), and coumarin (PCCMMA) have been synthesized via Heck type reaction. Three different types of polymers are photoreactable usin g linearly polarized UV light and applicable as liquid crystal alignment layer. Anthracence and coumarin containing polymers (PACMMA, PCCMMA) have better thermal stability than PMCMMA. This observation may be attributed to the glass transition temperature elevation due to the bulky size and another photocrosslinking site provided by anthracene or coumarin group.

Our long-term research goals involve the SARs study and the synthetic procedure development of wogonin and its analogs. We investigated efficient synthetic pathways of wogonin and its bioisosteres in a large quantity to decipher the structural requirements for anti-inflammatory activities. We plan to serially delete or modify the 5,7-dihydroxyl groups of wogonin to observe the effects of the hydroxyl groups on anti-inflammatory activity. Also we modofied the 8- methoxy group on a ring since it is known to be necessary for biological activity. (omitted)

The ischemia-reperfusion injury of the skeletal muscles is caused by generation of reactive oxygen during ischemia and reperfusion. Melatonin or N-Acetyl-5-methoxy- tryptamine is suggested to have antioxidant effects in several tissues. In present study, we examined the protective effect of melatonin in a rat hind limb ischemia-reperfusion injury. Dimethyl-sulfoxide(DMSO) was also tested for comparison. Ischemia was induced for 4 hours by vascular clamping and followed by 1 hour or 24 hours of reperfusion. Muscle injury was evaluated in 4 groups such as single laparotomy group(control), ischemia-reperfusion group, DMSO group, melatonin group. Eedema ratio and malondialdehyde(MDA) of muscle tissue and serum level of creatine kinase(CK), were measeured at the end of reperfusion. DMSO and melatonin group showed significant amelioration of edema and serum CK compared with ischemia-reperfusion group. The decreasing effect was more prominent in melatonin group. The muscle tissue MDA concentration is significantly lower in melatonin group than in ischemia-reperfusion group. The results show that melatonin prevents and improves ischemia-reperfusion injury more effectively in a rat hind limb than DMSO dose. Thus, clinically the melatonin may be used for a beneficial treatment of such injuries

A number of 8-arylflavones have been synthesized as congeners of wogonin and evaluated for their inhibitory activities of $PGE_2$ production. 8-Arylflavones were obtained from commercially available chrysin via two different synthetic pathways. Most 8-arylflavones exhibited much reduced inhibitory activities against COX-2 catalyzed $PGE_2$ production compared to that of wogonin. Functional group replacement at the 8-position of wogonin from methoxy to aryl group caused loss of inhibitory activity. Our present results imply that the functional group at the 8-position of flavones seems to play very important roles for bioactivity.

The photoreactive prepolymers with multifunctional cinnamate and bisphenol Atype cinnamate groups that could perform photodimerization without photoinitiators were synthesized by the reaction of t-cinnamic acids (CAs) and epoxy resins. Their photocure reaction rates and the extent of reaction conversion were measured with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and these increased with the intensity of UVirradiation. The experimental data of these reaction rates showed the characteristics of nth-order kinetics reaction, and all kinetic constants of each photoreactive polymer with this equation were summarized. Although the GTR-1800-HCA and KWG1-EP-HCA with hydroxyl group substituted cinnamate showed lower reaction conversion rates and rate constant than GTR-1800-CA and KWG1-EP-CAwith an unsubstituted cinnamate group, GTR-1800-MCAand KWG1-EP-MCAwith methoxy group substituted cinnamate showed similar and higher reaction conversion rates than the former, respectively. These results were explained in terms of segmental mobility for photopolymerization by molecular interactions.

Kinetic studies have been performed for alkaline hydrolysis of a series of [(methoxy)(p-substituted styryl)carbene]pentacarbonyl chromium(0) complexes ($(CO)_5$Cr=$C(OCH_3)CH=CHC_6H_4X$, X = p-$OCH_3$, p-$CH_3$, H, p-Cl, p-$NO_2$). Second-order rate constants $(k_{{OH}^-})$ for the alkaline hydrolysis in 50% acetonitrile-water(v/v) were determined spectrophotometrically at various temperatures. At a low pH region (pH < 7.5), the observed rate constant $(k_{obs})$ remained constant with a small value, while in a high pH region (pH > 9.5), $k_{obs}$ increases linearly with increasing the pH of the medium. The second-order rate constants $(k_{{OH}^-})$ increase as the substituent X changes from a strong electron donating group to a strong electron withdrawing group. The Hammett plot obtained for the alkaline hydrolysis is consisted of two intersecting straight lines. The nonlinear Hammett plot might be interpreted as a change in the rate-determining step. However, the fact that the corresponding Yukawa-Tsuno plot is linear with $\rho$ and r values of 0.71 and 1.14, respectively indicates that the nonlinear Hammett plot is not due to a change in the rate-determing step but is due to ground-state stabilization through resonance interaction. The positive $\rho$ value suggests that nucleophilic attack by $OH^-$ to form a tetrahedral addition intermediate is the rate-determining step. The large negative ${\Delta}S^\neq$ value determined in the present system is consistent with the proposed mechanism.

새로운 합성방법을 개발하여 pyrazolate 제초제의 곁가지를 변화시킨 새로운 구조의 3-trifluoro-methylpyrazole 유도체들과 4-benzenecarbinolpyrazole 유도체 등을 합성하여 전작과 답작상태에서 제초활성 시험을 하였다. 밭조건에서는 발아전처리의 경우 4 kg/ha의 약량에서도 제초효과를 나타내지 않았으며 발아후처리에서는 제초효과가 있었으나 미약하였다. 답작상태에서는 4 kg/ha의 약량에서 제초효과가 있었으며 특히 4-benzoylpyrazole의 benzene의 4위치에 electron-donating group인 methoxy가 치환된 화합물의 경우 활성과 선택성이 매우 좋았다. 그러나, methoxy가 두 개 이상 치환되거나 다른 electron-donating group인 sulfide기가 치환된 화합물들의 제초활성은 약하였다.

새로운 1-(5-methyl-3-phenylisoxazolin-5-yl)methoxy-2-chloro-4-fluorobenzene 유도체들의 phenyl 고리에 R-치환기와 치환기가 도입된 A=3,4,5,6-tetrahyophthalimino, B=3-chloro-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-2H-indazolyl 및 C=3,4-dimethylmaleimino 치환체들에 의한 벼(Orysa sativa L.)와 논피 (Echinochloa crus-galli) 뿌리와 줄기 부위의 살초활성에 관한 3차원 구조-활성관계(3D-QSAR)를 Gasteiger-Huckel 전하를 사용하여 비교 분자장 분석(CoMFA) 방법으로 연구하였다. 두 초종의 뿌리와 줄기의 살초 활성에 대한 4개의 CoMFA 모델들은 46개 화합물로 구성된 training set로부터 유도되었으며 각 모델들은 8개 화합물의 각 test set에 의하여 예측성이 평가되었다. Standard field, indicator field 및 H-bond field를 조합한 조건(SIH)에서 유도된 모델들의 통계결과는 cross-validated $r^2_{cv.}$값$(q^2=0.635\sim0.924)$과 non cross-validated, $r^2_{ncv}$ $(0.928\sim0.977)$값 그리고 PRESS 값$(0.091\sim0.156)$에 근거하여 매우 양호한 예측성을 나타내었다. 그리고 살초 활성은 분자의 입체장$(74.3\sim87.4%)$, 정전기장$(10.10\sim18.5%)$ 및 소수성장$(1.10\sim8.30%)$과 높은 상관성을 보였으며 입체장이 살초 활성에 가장 중요한 요소이었다. 이같은 CoMFA 분석 결과로부터, 이종 간 선택적이며 고 활성의 protox 저해제들이 X-치환기의 수식에 의하여 설계될 수 있을 것임을 알았다.
