Studies of the chemistry of Tröger's base, cyclopentadienones, and 2,1-benzothiazines
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The sequential alkylation of Tröger's base was developed for the synthesis of symmetric dialkylation analogs. The products from this reaction were ...
Investigation of K₀ NAA at MURR and investigation of the toenail as a biomonitor for Mg, Zn, Cu, Se and Hg
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Chapter 1: The K[subscript 0] method of neutron activation analysis (INAA) requires a stable core and neutron flux parameterization. The stability of ...
Aza-analogues of distyrylbenzene (DSB) synthesis, structures, and properties of 1,4-phenylenediamine bisimines (PDABI)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The drive for electo-optically active materials was officially initiated in 1966 with the publishing, by NASA, of a 137 page report. The "Electro-optic ...
Design and construction of multicomponent spheroidal assemblies on the nano-scale via the self-assembly approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Supramolecular chemists can be thought of as the architects of the nano-scale world. We are primary concerned with the design and construction of ...
Investigation of the replacement of cysteine residues in DOTA-(Tyr³)-octreotate: synthesis, characterization and evaluation of biological activities
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Modification of the peptide sequence of DOTA-Tyr³-octreotate is carried out by substituting the cysteine moieties with D-Cysteine, L-Penicillamine and D-Penicillamine in one or both positions to study the effect of this ...
Structural supramolecular constructs of spheres and tubes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
This thesis examines four different molecular systems that are in part or substrates for larger structural motifs that resemble spheres or tubes. The first project used donut shaped cucurbituril and through functionalization ...
Rhenium complexes with O, N, S ligands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The main focus of this thesis is the synthesis and characterization of nonradioactive rhenium complexes containing O, N, S ligands. Chapter 2 describes the rhenium labeling of four somatostatin analogues. Confirmation for ...
Applications of elemental analysis for archaeometric studies : analytical and statistical methods for understanding geochemical trends in ceramics, ochre and obsidian
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Three areas are covered in this dissertation: elemental analysis of Caborn-Welborn ceramics, elemental analysis and geochemical characterization of ochres, and construction and implementation of a portable XRF instrument ...
Studies of natural products that reveal novel strategies for efficient modification of DNA
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
DNA is the central molecule in cells. The correct function of cells depends on the structure of DNA. DNA damaging natural products often show cytotoxic or mutagenic properties, which many times land them medicinal value ...
Synthesis and evaluation of 105Rhodium(III) complexes derived from diaminodithioether (DADTE) ligands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Seven analogoues of tetradentate acyclic diaminodithioether (DADTE)ligands were synthesized and characterized. R₂SC(R₁)₂)CHnN(CH₂)mNCHn((R₁)₂C)SR₂ 222-gdm (L3): m = 1, n = 1, R₁ = -CH₃ and R₂ = -H; 222-gdm-pmBz (L4): m = ...
