Anion and solvent influences on the self-assembly of copper(I) coordination solids
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)The investigation of solvent and anion influences on the self-assembly of copper(I) coordination solids are presented. As these extended solids vary in structural design as reactions conditions are varied, both those ... -
Copper (I) coordination networks synthesized with solid-solid reactions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)The use of solid-solid reactions in the development of one-, two-, and three dimensional Cu(I) coordination networks are discussed. The solid-solid reactions were monitored by a variety of instrumental techniques to achieve ... -
From carbon to copper : studies of novel nanomaterials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)Nanomaterials are materials on the order of 10-9 m that are currently being investigated for use in a wide range of applications in the growing field of nanotechnology. This dissertation documents the synthesis, characterization, ... -
Structure and synthesis of four supramolecular structures involving Cu(I) and 4,7-phenanthroline
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)The design and synthesis of supramolecular species with discrete geometric shapes has been an area of much interest and research in recent years. Three isolated species of square shaped molecules and one infinite network ... -
The synthesis and characterization of 1,1'-disubstituted ferrocene imine Schiff base ligand systems for use as potential environmental heavy metal cationic sensors
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)Heavy metals in the environment such as Cd, Hg and Pb are toxic to life forms. They can enter the ecological system through both natural and industrial sources. By developing chemical sensors that can detect these metals, ...
