Using cell-free extract of Lysobacter lactamgenus, enzymatic conversion of $\delta$-L-($\alpha$-aminoadiphyl)-L-cysteinyl-D-valine (ACV) the first substrate of $\beta$-lactam biosynthesis, into antibiotic compounds was attempted. In high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) analysis, the biosynthetic intermediates for cephalosporin antibiotics including isopenicillin N, deacetoxycephalosporin C, deacetylcephalosporin C and unknown cephem compound were detected in reaction mixtures. It implies that cephabacin compounds from L lactamgenus could be produced by biosynthetic routes through penicillin ring formation and its expansion to cephalosporin ring, likely as cephalosporin C from Cephalosporium or cephamycin C from Streptomyces. Among biosynthetic enzyme in cell-free extract, the ring formation activity (isopenicillin N synthetase activity) was separated in 50-60% of ammonium sulfate fraction, and ring expansion activity (deacetoxycephalosporin C synthetase activity) was found to be in 40-50% fraction. The partially purified isopenicillin N synthetase could convert as much as 90% ACV to isopenicillin N during 6-hour reaction.

The protein disulfide isomerase(PDI) reaction kinetics has been studied to evaluate its effect on the monoclonal antibody(MAb) refolding and assembly which accompanies disulfide bond formation The MAb in vitro assembly experiments showed that the assembly rate of heavy and light chains can be greatly enhanced in the presence of PDI as compared to the rate of assembly obtained by the air-oxidation. The reassembly patterns of MAb intermediates were identical for both with and without PDI, suggesting that the PDI does not determine the MAb assembly pathway, but rather facilitates the rate of MAb assembly by promoting PDI catalyzed disulfide bond formation. The effect of growth rate on PDI activities for MAb production has also been examined by using continuous culture system. The specific MAb productivity of hybridoma cells decreased as the growth rate increased. However, PDI activities were nearly constant for a wide range of growth rates except very high growth rate, indicating that no direct correlation between PDI activity and specific MAb productivity exists.

The purpose of the research is to investigate of diesel spray combustion for simultaneously reduce way NOx and PM. The pressure diesel injection were done into intermediates that are generated by very lean DME HCCI combustion using a RCM. The concentration of intermediate could not be directly measured; we estimated it by CHEMKIN calculation. DME HCCI characteristic is surveyed. Validations of the CHEMKIN calculation were confirmed pressure rise of an experiment and pressure rise of a calculation. Using a framing streak camera captured two dimensional spontaneous luminescence images from chemical species at low temperature reaction(LTR) and high temperature reaction (HTR). Also, the combustion events were observed by high-speed direct photography, the ignition and combustion were analyzed by the combustion chamber pressure profiles.

trans-1,2-Bispyrazylethylene (BPE) undergoes photoaddition reaction to tetramthylethylene (TME) which appears to involve radical intermediates under conditions where the corresponding hydrocarbons are unreactive. This photoaddition reaction involves abstraction of an allylic hydrogen atom of TME by $^1(n,\;{\pi}^*)$ states of BPE having radical character. The major photoadduct is isolated by column chromatography and fractional vacuum sublimation and characterized to be 2,3-dimetyl-5,6-bispyrazyl-2-hexene.

The degradation of 2-chlorophenol(2-CP) by various AOPs(Advanced Oxidation Processes) including the photo-Fenton process has been examined. In sole $Fe^{2+}$, UV or $H_2O_2$ process without combination, low removal efficiencies have been achieved. But the photo-Fenton process showed higher removal efficiency for degradation of 2-chlorophenol than those of other AOPs including the Fenton process and the UV processes. In the photo-Fenton process, the optimal experimental conditions of 2-chlorophenol degradation were obtained at pH 3 and the $Fe^{2+}/H_2O_2$molar ratio of 1. Also the 2-chlorophenol removal efficiency increased with decreasing of the initial 2-chlorophenol concentration. 3-chlorocatechol and chlorohydroquinone were identified as photo-Fenton reaction intermediates, and a degradation pathway of 2-chlorophenol in the aqueous phase during the photo-Fenton reaction was proposed.

This paper presents applicability of Fenton oxidation to perchloroethylene(PCE) contaminated soil. The initial concentration of PCE was 187mg/kg and Fenton oxidation conditions were 1.0M $H_2O_2$ and 0.5M $Fe^{2+}$. More than 97% of PCE decomposition and 98% of dechlorination were obtained within 5 hrs. It was found that the decomposition of PCE by Fenton oxidation was followed pseudo first order and its reaction coefficient was 0.78 $hr^{-1}$. GC-MS and GC-ECD analysis of reaction intermediates confirmed only the presence of trichloroacetic acid(i.e., 1.0% of initial PCE concentration). Under Fenton oxidation conditions, it was proposed that PCE was decomposed not simultaneously but one by one.

7-Aminocephalosporanic acid(7-ACA) was reacted with diphenyldiazomethane(DPM) to get diphenylmethyl 7-$\beta$-(O-ethylphthalimidomethylphosphony1)-3-acetoxymethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate. Diethyl phthalimidomethylphosphonate was chloridated with a slight excess of phosphorus pentachloride to the O-ethyl phthalimidoalkylphosphonochloridate. Previously unreported two compounds, diphenylmethy1 -7-$\beta$-(O-ethylphthalimidomethylphosphony1)-3-acetoxymethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate and diphenylmethyl-7-$\beta$-[O-ethylphthalimidoethylphosphonyl]-3-acetoxymethyl-3-cephem-4-carboxylate were synthesized by cupling reaction of DPM 7-ACA and O-ethyl phthalimidoalkylphosphonochloridate. All of the compounds including starting materials and reaction intermediates were characterized by $^1H$ NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy.

Degradation of benzothiophene(BT) in the aqueous phase by potassium ferrate(VI) was investigated. Potassium ferrate(VI) was prepared by the wet oxidation method. The degradation efficiency of BT was measured at various values of pH, ferrate(VI) dosage and initial concentration of BT. BT was degraded rapidly within 30 seconds by ferrate(VI). While the highest degradation efficiency was achieved at pH 5, the lowest degradation efficiency was achieved at pH 9. Also, the initial rate constant of BT increased with decreasing of the BT initial concentration. In addition, the intermediate analysis for the reaction of BT and ferrate(VI) has been conducted using GC-MS. Benzene, styrene, benzaldehyde, formaldehyde, benzoic acid, formic acid, and acetic acid were identified as reaction intermediates, and ${SO_4}^{2-}$ was identified as an end product.

Novel phosphorylated derivatives of ribavirin 5-16 were synthesized by the reaction of 4-nitrophenyl phosphorodichloridate with various amino acid esters in the presence of triethylamine in dry tetrahydrofuran through the intermediates 3. On further reaction of 3 with ribavirin in THF and pyridine in the presence of TEA afforded the title compounds 5-16. Their structures were characterized by IR, $^1H$, $^{13}C$, $^{31}P$ NMR and mass spectral analyses. All the title compounds were found to exhibit potent in vitro anticancer activity against MCF-7 breast cancer cell lines.

Friedel-Crafts reaction isopropoxybenzene with methyl $\alpha$-chloro-$\alpha$-(maethylthio)acetate 1 afforded methyl $\alpha$-methylthio-p-isopropoxyphenylacetate 2d, which was readily converted into methyl p-isopropoxyphenylacetate 3 by reductive desulfurization with zinc dust in acetic acid. Methylation of 3 with sodium hydride and methyl iodide gave methyl $\alpha$-(p-isopropoxyphenyl)propionate 5. Methyl p-hydroxyphenylakanoates (4,6), useful intermediates for some medicines, were easily prepared by treatment of 3 and 5 with titanium tetrachloride, respectively.
