A shake-flask method was used to determine the n-octanol/water partition coefficients of sulfamethazine, sulfadimethoxine, sulfamethoxydiazine, sulfamonomethoxine, sulfamethoxazole, sulfaquinoxaline and sulfachloropyrazine from (298.15 to 333.15) K. The results showed that the n-octanol/water partition coefficient of each sulfonamide decreased with the increase of temperature. Based on the fluid phase equilibrium theory, the thermodynamic relationship of n-octanol/water partition coefficient depending on the temperature is proposed, and the changes of enthalpy, entropy, and the Gibbs free energy function for sulfonamides partitioning in n-octanol/ water are determined, respectively. Sulfonamides molecules partitioning in n-octanol/water is mainly an enthalpy driving process, during which the order degrees of system increased. The temperature effect coefficient of n-octanol/water partition coefficient is discussed. The results show that its magnitude is the same as that of values in the literature.

The n -octanol/water partition coefficient (Pow) is one of the most important parameters employed for estimating a chemiral's environmental fate and toxicity. The shake-flask method, one direct experimental method, i.1 prone to experimental artifacts for highly hydrophobic compounds. Thus, a valid method for direct determination of the Pow of highly hydrophobic compounds is needed. The slow -stirring method has been demonstrated to provide reliable log Pow data to log Pow greater than 5. This study was performed to evaluate the accuracy of slow- stirring experiment for determination of log Pow, particularly for highly hydrophobic compounds. 1, 2, 3, 4-tetrachlorobenzene, hexachlorobezene, 2, 2', 3, 3', 5, 5', 6, 6'-octachlorobiphenyl, decachlorobiphenyl, and p, p'-DDT (4.5$\times$0.02, 5.41$\times$0.06, 7.26$\times$0.04, 7.87$\times$0.10, and 6.03$\times$0.06, respectively. The octanol/water partition coefficient by the slow-stirring method were very similar to the literature values. These results indicate that the slow- stirring method allows for reliable determination of log Pow of highly hydrophobic chemicals.

Physicochemical properties of aspalatone (acetylsalicylic acid maltol ester, AM), which has been recently found to have an antithrombotic effect, were studied in terms of solubility, dissolution, partition coefficient (Pc) and stability. The solubility of AM at 37$^{\circ}C$ was about 1.2 mg/ml and the P$_{c}$ value for n-octanol/water and chloroform/water was 11.4 and 382.6, respectively. Dissolution rates of AM at pH 1.2 and 6.8 were more than 80% within 30 min. The degradation of AM followed apparent first-order kinetics, and was dependent on temperature, pH and ionic strength. From the pH-rate profile, the optimal pH was found to be at around 4.0. Half-lives at pH 1.2 and 6.8 were 33.5 and 44.4 hr, respectively. The degradation rate of AM at pH 1.2 was somewhat faster than that of aspirin, but at pH 7.0, the degradation rate of AM was slower than that of aspirin.n.

The physicochemical properties of aloesin, which has been recently found to reduce renal toxicity induced by cis-platin, were studied including solubility, partition coefficient ( $P_{c}$ ), osmolality, and stability. The solubility of aloesin was about 500 mg/mι, and the $P_{c}$ value for n-octanol/water was 1.01 $\pm$ 0.03. The degradation of aloesin followed the pseudo-first-order kinetics and was dependent on temperature, pH and ionic strength. From the pH-rate profile, the optimal pH was found to be 2.0~3.0. Some metal ions increased the degradation rate in the rank order of M $n^{2+}$ ＞ F $e^{3+}$ ＞ C $u^{2+}$ ＞ F $e^{2+}$. On the other hand, other metal ions such as B $i^{3+}$, $Ba^{2+}$, Z $n^{2+}$, N $i^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ did not show the unfavorable effects. After autoclaving, aloesin contents remaining were 81.8~98.8% of initial concentrations depending on pH. The most stable pH was 3.98 in the autoclaving. Osmolality increased linearly as concentration increased.sed.creased.sed.

A butyrolactone ester of cefazolin (CFZ-BTL) was synthesized by the esterification of cefazolin (CFZ) with $\alpha$-bromo-${\gamma}$-butyrolactone. The synthesis was confirmed by the spectroscopic analysis. The CFZ-BTL was more lipophilic than the CFZ when assessed by n-octanol/water partition coefficients at various pH. The CFZ-BTL itself did not show any antimicrobial activity in vitro, but after oral administration of CFZ-BTL to rabbits, exerted significant anti-microbial activity in serum samples when measured by the inhibion zone method in nutrient agar plates, due to conversion of CFZ-BTL to an active metabolite, probably CFZ, in the body. The CFZ-BTL was also converted into CFZ as confirmed by in vitro incubation study, with tissue homogenates (liver, blood and intestine) of rabbits. The liver showed the fastest conversion rate, probably via the hydrolysis mechanism. In vivo metabolism of CFZ-BTL to CFZ was also confirmed in vivo serum samples by HPLC. The oral bioavailability of CFZ-BTL in rabbits was 1.6-fold increased when compared to CFZ, resulting from followed by enhanced lipophilicity increased passive absorption in the intestine.

Phthalimidyl ester of ceftezole (CFZ-PT) was synthesized as a prodrug by esterification of ceftezole (CFZ) with N-bromophthalimide. CFZ-PT was more lipophilic than CFZ when the lipophilicity was assessed by partition coefficients between n-octanol and water at various pH. The pharmacokinetic characteristic of CFZ-PT and CFZ preparations were compared following oral administrations of these compounds to rabbits. CFZ-PT is expected to be metabolized rapidly to CFZ in the body. The metabolism process appears to be hydrolysis of the ester to CFZ, the parent drug of CFZ-PT. In vivo metabolism of CFZ-PT to CFZ was confirmed in rabbit by HPLC analysis. CFZ concentration in the serum samples taken after oral administration of CFZ-PT(equivalent amount of CFZ) were released and higher than those of CFZ. Oral bioavailability of CFZ-PT was 1.9 fold higher than at of CFZ in rabbits because of enhanced lipophilicity and absorption. Finally, it was concluded that CFZ-PT appears useful as a prodrug of CFZ to improve the oral bioavailability of CFZ.

A number of different methods have been used for modeling the sorption of volatile organic chlorinated compounds such as tetrachloroethylene/perchloroethylene (PCE). In this study, PCE was adsorbed in several natural sorbents, i.e., Pahokee peat, vermicompost, BionSoil^®, and natural soil, in the batch experiments. Several sorption models such as linear, Freundlich, solubility-normalized Freundlich model, and Polanyi-Manes model (PMM) were used to analyze sorption isotherms. The relationship between sorption model parameters, organic carbon content (f_oc), and elemental C/N ratio was studied. The organic carbon normalized partition coefficient values (log K_oc = 1.50-3.13) in four different sorbents were less than the logarithm of the octanol-water partition coefficient (log K_ow = 3.40) of PCE due to high organic carbon contents. The log K_oc decreased linearly with log f_oc and log C/N ratio, but increased linearly with log O/C, log H/C, and log (N+O)/C ratio. Both log K_F,oc or log K_F,oc decreased linearly with log f_oc (R² = 0.88-0.92) and log C/N ratio (R² = 0.57-0.76), but increased linearly with log (N+O)/C (R² = 0.93-0.95). The log q_max,oc decreased linearly as log f_oc and log C/N increased, whereas it increased with log O/C, log H/C and log (N+O)/C ratios. The log q_max,oc increased linearly with (N+O)/C indicating a strong dependence of q_max,oc on the polarity index. The results showed that PCE sorption behaviors were strongly correlated with the physicochemical properties of soil organic matter (SOM).

농약의 물리화학적 특성에 관한 연구의 일환으로 captafol의 수용성, 가수분해, 증기압, 분배계수를 표준 측정기법 인 미국 EPA와 OECD 방법에 준하여 측정하였다. 수용성은 $25^{\circ}C$ 조건에서 2.24 ppm이었으며, 가수분해에 의한 반감기는 $25^{\circ}C$에서 77.8시간(pH 3.0), 6.54시간(pH 7.0), 0.72시간(p班 8.0)으로 나타나 알칼리 조건에서 불안정한 화합물임을 확인하였다. 산성조건에서의 반감기는 온도에 영향을 받지 않았으나, 중성, 알칼리 조건에서의 반감기는 $40^{\circ}C$에서 매우 짧았다. 가수분해 실험의 표준 대조물질인 diazinon을 이용하여 실험한 결과 본 연구실에서 수행한 가수분해 실험은 적합한 것으로 판정되었다. Captafol은 상온에서 증기압 ($8.27{\times}10^{-9}\;torr,\;20^{\circ}C$)이 높지 않으므로 휘발에 의하여 대기환경에 영향을 미칠 가능성은 없으리라 예상되었고, log P=6.94-(4401.6/T)라는 관계식을 유도할 수 있었다. Captafol은 옥탄올/물 분배계수치가 높아(Kow=1,523) 먹이연쇄를 통한 생물농축의 가능성이 예상되나 가수분해가 빠르기 때문에 비록 captafol이 수계에 노출된다고 하여도 분해가 빠르게 일어나 어류 생체내에 농축되어 인체에까지 영향을 미칠 가능성은 매우 낮을 것으로 사료되었다.

The distribution and excretion of DWC-751, a new cephalosporin, were examined in rats and mice following a single intravenous administration. DWC-751 in plasma and urine was determined by both HPLC and microbiological assay. The plasma concentration of the drug declined biexponentially. The initial and terminal half lives of the drug were 3.0 and 28.3 min, respectively. Binding of the drug to plasma proteins was 42.3%. The distribution volume at steacly-state ($Vd_{ss}$) was only 0.341 ι/kg, which is well correlated with the low n-octanol/water partition coefficient of the drug ($K_{o/w{\cong}0$) Actually, the drug was distributed to liver, kidney and lung with very low organ/plasma concentration ratio. The drug, was excreted mainly via renal excretion, i.e., the total($CL_T$) and apparent renal($CL_{R}$) clearances of the drug were 10.8 and 7.5 ml/min/kg, respectively.
