The adsorption of environmental pollutants in gas and aqueous media utilizing nano-scale materials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
In this body of work, the synthesis and characterization of several nanoporous materials have been described, as well as the application of these materials towards environmentally positive means. Largely, this work involves ...
Studies on radiometal chelator-bombesin peptide-based radiopharmaceuticals for tumor GRP-receptor subtype mediated radioimaging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Bombesin-like peptides bind to gastrin-releasing peptide receptor subtype 2 (BB2) with significantly high binding affinity and specificity. In an ...
Synthesis and structure-activity relationship of a series of sigma receptor ligands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Sigma receptors are involved in several biological processes, and sigma ligands might be promising as cancer treatment agents, cocaine abuse medicines, and valuable psychiatric drugs. In an attempt to elucidate effectual ...
Technetium and rhenium schiff base complexes for nuclear medicine
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
This dissertation investigates the synthesis of rhenium and technetium Schiff base complexes for potential applications in nuclear medicine. In Chapter 2, a series of mixed ligand Re(III) complexes of the form trans-[Re( ...
Design and synthesis of group 8 transition metal complexes for C-C bond forming valorization of carbon dioxide
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
The abundancy of carbon dioxide (CO2) in Earth's atmosphere combined with its inexpensive cost and low toxicity has made CO2 upconversion to value added products an area of intense interest in catalysis research. While a ...
