Cocrystallization of pyrogallol[4]arenes with target molecules
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Supramolecular chemistry, in its simplest and broadest description, is the chemistry of intermolecular interactions or chemistry of the noncovalent bond. Supramolecular...
Exploring chemical reaction complexity : application to hydrogen combustion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
The aim of this research is to gain insight into hydrogen combustion as a prototype of complex chemistry via classical molecular dynamics (CMD) simulations given the presently available reactive force field, ReaxFF. We focus on developing...
Is sustainable energy development possible?: It's not easy being green
(2008-07)
This presentation addresses aspects of sustainable energy development and ecological engineering, focusing on "green chemistry" or using engineering processes and products holistically....
Coumarin Aldehyde Chemosensors for Selective Recognition of Neurotransmitters
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Soil solution chemistry and nutrient flux in Ozark Highland forest soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Soil solution chemistry and nutrient flux may differ among soils due to differences in parent material, biota, landscape position, climate, and degree of weathering. Within soils, soil solution chemistry changes seasonally (e.g., leaf senescence...
Host-guest complexes to molecular encapsulation of hydrogen
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2005)
Science has always been about man learning from and attempting to mimic nature. In supramolecular chemistry this possibility is evident due to particularly interesting architectures of natural shell-like containers such as viruses and ferritin. One...
11-amino-1 undecene-covered SI (100) and GE (100) surfaces
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and silicon/ germanium present at the semiconductor surface using Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)....
Formal total synthesis of pseudopteroxale : progress toward total synthesis of hamigeran B
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
In the first chapter, a formal total synthesis of pseudopteroxazole is presented, highlightening an E-selective Horner-Emmons reaction, a Buchwald-Hartwig coupling, and a diastereoselective intramolecular Michael addition. In the second chapter...
Sythesis, characterization and reactivity of platinum (II) peroxo, alkoxide and triflate compunds
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The chemistry of a collection of platinum(II) compounds, including peroxo, alkoxide and triflate compounds, were synthesized and studied. This involved a rather wide range...
The intramolecular, stereoselective addition of sulfoximine carbanions to electron deficient alkenes
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Office of Undergraduate Research, 2005)
Chiral Benzothiazine play important roles in synthetic organic chemistry since they can be used in the preparation of enantiomerically pure compounds. We have studied the synthesis of these species using the intramolecular, stereo selective addition...
Decay of 4 He*^ from PdD and transmutation
(University of Missouri, 2013)
Present Lochon and Extended-Lochon Models for the low-energy nuclear reaction, LENR, fusion process predict the fusion of monatomic deuterium into a sub-fragmentation level excited condition of 4He*^. The ^ and * indicate the presence of deep...
Strategies for the attachment of organic functional groups to silicon surfaces and measurement of vapor pressure of ionic liquids
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)
) and these results were presented and discussed. Ionic liquids represent a relatively new group of compounds that are thermally stable with very low vapor pressures. These unique properties enable ionic liquids to be used in a variety of applications. As the family...
Synthesis of fluorescent 7-amino-2,1-benzothiazines and total synthesis of buddledone A
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
slight improvement in fluorescent properties. In the second chapter, the total synthesis of buddledone A using ring-closing metathesis as a key step is presented. Efforts toward synthesis of zerumbone from buddledone A using several conditions were...
Fluorine-18 capture by substituted BODIPY derivatives
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)
, and changes in peptide expression has been associated with cancer. However, molecular imaging does not presently have the tools required to monitor the entire class of peptides. In order to increase the scope of molecular imaging in regard to peptides, we have...
Geochemical studies of gold mineralizing events in the Discovery-Ormsby and Clan Lake areas of the Yellowknife Greenstone Belt, Northwest Territories, Canada
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Metavolcanic rocks of the mafic Discovery-Ormsby area and the intermediate to felsic Clan Lake area are sites of active gold exploration in the north end of the Yellowknife Greenstone Belt (YGB), Northwest Territories, Canada. The deposits present...
Investigation of the synthesis of water-soluble 1,3,5-trihydroxy-2,4,6- trimethylsulfonic acid benzene, its complexes with lanthanide cations and sulfonato-resorcin[4]arenes, and the study of gas storage in iodine doped p-tert-butylcalix[4]arenes
