Abstract:
The alkylation of phenol with methanol was studied and a high selectivity for Oalkylation was attained over alkali-metal cation-exchanged X zeolites. The transformation of primary products of the title reaction was also studied over CsX zeolite. On the basis of experimental results, a reaction scheme on CsX zeolite was suggested

Resorcarens la-b (R'=Ph, p-MeOC6H4) Were fully alkylated with alkyl iodides or bromides in TEBA/KOH/DMF solid-liquid PTC process with 63-82% yields. whereas the three calix[4]pyrroles 3a-b (2R=2Me, (CH2)4(CH2)5) were alkylated with alkyl iodides in TBAB/50%NaOH/CH2Cl2 liquid-liquid PTC system with lower yields (10-38%).

Abstract:
The oxidation on 1,4-substituted Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridines with nitrosonium tetrafluorohorate (NO+BF4-) in acetonitrile gave Hantzsch pyridines in good yields. In some cases the dealkylation occurred. The evidences to draw the mechanism were presented.

Abstract:
Three single chain amphiphilic cholesterol derivatives with amino acid as hydrophilic groups,Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ, were synthesized. When they were hydrated in water, they can all form lamellae structures as evidenced by DSC measurement. The lamellae states of Ⅱ and Ⅲ can be converted to vesicles upon ultrasonication of the diluted aqueous solutions. The vesicles showed very slow release rate of the encapsulated water-soluble dyes, indicating that they are stable and belong to the least permeable vesicles.

Abstract:
A new type of anthracene crown ether 1,8-anthraceno-l8-crown-5 has been synthesized and the photophysical properties upon complexation with alkali and alkaline-earth metal cations were investigated.The fluorescence quantum yield and lifetime are appreciably enhanced, and the stability constant Ks were determined by fluorometric titration. It was found that the magnitude of Ks is controlled by the size and charge density of the complexed cations.

Abstract:
A series of new dansylamide derivatives have been synthesized and the specific binding affinity of such fluorophores to nucleic acids has been investigated by using absorption, circular dichroism (CD), fluorescence and atomic force microscopy (AFM) The results indicate that the positive charge of the ligand and the π-π stacking between the dansyl part of the ligand and the DNA base pair may play an important role when binding to polynucleotides.

Abstract:
This study involves initial Hartree-Fock and Density Functional theory calculations on the molecular recognition of the cyclodextrins. The α-cyclodextrin-acetophenone complexation system was investigated with PM3, HF/3-21G* and B3LYP/3-21G* methods. The results indicated that the inclusion orientation in which the acetyl group of the acetophenone points towards the secondary hydroxyls of the α-cyclodextrin was preferable in energy. The steric effect was supposed as the physical reason of such a behavior. Hence, the simple rule the anti-parallel arrangement of the dipoles of the host and guest molecules in the cyclodextrin complexation is not generally applicable.

Abstract:
An electrochemical quartz crystal impedance system has been applied to monitor generation of precipitate and adsorption of the precipitate onto Au electrode during electrochmical oxidation and Fe(CN)63-/Fe(CN)64- electrochemical catalytic oxidation of L-cysteine in phosphate aqueous buffer (pH 7.4). Significant decreases in the resonant frequency and increases in the motional resistance and the static capacitance were found during the precipitate adsorption, and the frequency shift found in solution was ca. 2 times that in air. Similar responses of quartz crystal impedance and a white precipitate were obtained during redox titration of L-cysteine solution using K3Fe(CN)6 solution. FT-IR analysis indicated that the white precipitate is cystine. The electrode collection efficiency of the electrogenerated cystine was estimated.
