The rate constants of the hydrolysis of cinnamanilide derivatives were determined UV spectrometry in H2SO4 (5~20N), NaOH(5~11N) at 50~110℃ and rate equation could be applied over a strong acid and strong base were obtained. Final product of the hydrolysis was a cinnamic acid. The σ values obtained from the slope of linear plots of log kabs vs. Hammet tΣ constants were slightly negatives, Substituents on cinnamanilide showed a relatively small effect, with hydrolysis facilitated be electron donating group. Activation energy(Ea)was also calculated for the hydrolysis of the cinnamanilide. From this reaction rate equation, substituent effect and experimental of rate constants, that the hydrolysis of cinnamanillde was Initiated by the netural molecule of H2O which do not dissociate at strong acid, and proceeded by hydroxide ion at strong base.
Heavy metal ions in water were removed using algal biomass as adsorbents. Absorbents were dried for 3 days, ground them by 40∼60 mesh and then were swelled in a buffer solution for 1hr. After being packed in the column, commercially available standard solution of Cd(Ⅱ) and Pb(Ⅱ) ions were diluted to get the suitable concentration and then it was eluted with the rate of 1 ㎖/min. Heavy metals on the adsorbents were recovered with nitric acid.
More amounts of Cd(Ⅱ) or Pb(Ⅱ) ions in green algae, Ulva pertusa, than in brown algae, Sargassum hornerl, were adsorbed. Pb(Ⅱ) ion was adsorbed more than Cd(Ⅱ) ion in both algae. The pH effect of adsorbed amounts of Cd(Ⅱ), Pb(Ⅱ) ions on the biomass was shown the following order ; pH 10.5 > 8.5 > 7.0 > 5.5 > 3.5. Recovery ratio of metal ions from algae is shown higher in acidic or neural conditions than It in alkalis ones. Pb(Ⅱ) ion is recovered relatively more than Cd(Ⅱ) ion in our system.
