Abstract:
The photoinitiated reaction of β-bromonaphthalene with excess pinacolone enolate does not yield expected normal SRN 1 product 1-β-naphthyl-3,3-dimethyl-2-butanone, 3, but a more complex molecule 2,2-dimethyl-5-(1',1'-dimethylethyl)-6-β-naphthyl-5-hexene-3-one, 4, deriving from it. The reaction is inhibited by m-dinitrobenzene and do not occur in the absence of light. Structure analysis of the product, along with other evidence, indicates a mechanism for this reaction, where addition of a further pinacolone molecule to carbonyl group of 3 and subsequent elimination of a water molecule would afford product 4, once the SRN1 substitution product 3 has formed.

(3R,5R)-3-((tert-Butyldimethylsily)oxy)-5-((Z)-2-bromovinyl)-tetrahydro-furan-2-one, an intermediate for the synthesis of Fostriecin was achieved by intramolecular asymmetric induction in propene addition of (-)-8-phenylmenthyl glyoxylate followed by inversion of C3-hydroxyl group and Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation with simultaneous cyclization to give lactone 5. Then protection of C3-hydroxyl group and oxidation of the C6-primary hydroxyl group which reacted with Wittig reagent to yield the target compound4.

Abstract:
A novel method was used to obtain demethoxy-amino-substituted hypocrellin derivatives. Peri-hydroxylated perylenequinone structure of hypocrellin was reserved when hypocrellin reacted with an amine in pyridine. The products were new compounds with significant cytotoxicity against tumor cells. Their structures have been established on the basis of their mass and 1H NMR spectra.

Abstract:
Asymmetric cyclomercuration of chiral ferrocenylimines (+)-(R)-2 and (-)-(S)-2 with mercuric acetate and subsequent treatment by lithium chloride gave a mixture of diastereomeric cyclomercurated ferrocenylimines. The four enantiomeric pure compounds with both planar and central chirality were isolated from the two mixtures by the thin layer chromatography.

Abstract:
The binding conformations of bidentate ligand DABCO(1,4-diazobicyclo[2,2,2]octane) to a series of p/p type zinc porphyrin dimers covalently linked with flexible alkoxy chain-O(CH2)n O- (n=2~10) are described by 1H NMR and UV-vis spectroscopy. DABCO can bind inside the cavities of porphyrin dimers and form a ternary sandwich complex as the alkoxy chain length is long enough. The thermodynamic parameters which control the binding behavior are investigated.

Abstract:
Molecular orbital PM3 calculation was performed on the complexation of cyclobis(para-quat-p-phenylene) with a number of 1,4-disubstituted benzenes and biphenyl derivatives. A fair correlation was found between the PM3 calculated binding energies and the experimental ones, which enabled the PM3 calculation to predict the experimental binding energies for a number of important complexes. A good structure-activity relationship was also found between the PM3 calculated binding energies and the substituent molar refraction Rm and Hammett ó constants, indicating that the van der Waals force and the electronic interactions constituted the major driving forces for the complexation of cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene).

Abstract:
A new equation of state based on hard-sphere perturbed theory was developed. This equation combined the CS repulsive term and Guo-Du attractive term. Parameters of 38 substances were estimated, the pressure-volume-temperature properties were calculated and compared with two other equations. The results show that this equation is more accurate.

Abstract:
A short chain poly (acrylamide-dimethylacrylamide) was synthesized in water phase using isopropanol as a chain transfer agent. This copolymer can form a stable dynamic coating on the inner surface of the capillary, thereby suppressing the electroosmotic flow and DNA-capillary wall interaction. The high efficient separation of DNA fragments and SSCP analysis were obtained in bare capillaries using this copolymer as a sieving medium.

Abstract:
A one-meter long column packed with silica gel is used to separate light hydrocarbons. The silica gel has been modified with several kinds of gas chromatography stationary phases. Among these, PEG 2000 shows fairly good effect when using 80-100 meshes silica gel for the separation of mixture of methane, ethane, ethylene, acetylene, propane, propylene and n-, i-butane. The different behavior of silica gel between batch to batch is also found. When silica gel is coated with a small amount of Al2O3prepared with sol-gel method, better resolution has been observed on a 2-meter column compared with the non-modified silica gel.

Abstract:
Since highly crystalline poly (L-lactide) (PLLA) degrades rather slowly in a biological environment and the crystalline domains remaining after partial degradation of the implant material give rise to an inflammatory response of the surrounding tissue, L- and D,L-lactide copolymer[P(L-DL)LA] having a low crystallinity is preferred in surgical applications. The thermal transitions and the mechanical properties of P(L-DL)LA rods were discussed in this paper. It was found that the self-reinforced P(L-DL)LA[SR-P(L-DL)LA] was strong enough in terms of mechanical properties compared with the self-reinforced PLLA[SR-PLLA].

Abstract:
A monolayer which is formed by a binuclear palladium complex of low rim methioninedisubstituted calix[4]arene exhibits extraordinary cohesiveness. Cohesiveness measurement and Brewster Angle Microscopy observation show that the monolayer is uniform and robust. This film is probably formed by self-assembly of precursor complex through strong chloride ion bridge between palladium centers.
