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 ...
Deantiaromatization as a driving force in an electrocyclization of cyclopentadienone and the total synthesis of 1-epi-esco-pseudopteroxazole
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Deantiaromatization has been successfully demonstrated as a driving force in an electrocyclization of cyclopentadienones. The reaction was found to be general for a number of substrates and provides a unique way to access ...
Computational studies of three chemical systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
The subject of this dissertation is the use of electronic structure calculations to examine and supplement the experimental observations of three different chemical systems. Both ab initio and DFT methods have been employed. ...
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 ...
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 ...
