Theranostic and matched pair radionuclides as radiopharmaceutical as for imaging and radiotherapy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
]AsSR are underway. 4-6 Chapter 4 investigates the synthesis and evaluation of a monoamine monoamide dithiol (MAMA) ligand with an improved hydrophilicity for developing bifunctional chelators and their 186/188Re compounds. A series of NxS4-x tetradentate chelates...
Crossed-beam chemical reaction dynamics probed with universal and state resolved ion imaging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
The main goal of chemical reaction dynamics is to unravel the intimate motions of individual atoms during a chemical transformation. This information must generally be inferred from indirect macroscopic measurement. Very ...
Synthesis and evaluation of [105]Rhodium (III) complexes of phosphine chelate systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
. Chelate systems comprised of tertiary phosphines may serve as internal reducing agents, thus limiting the amount of ethanol and decreasing the temperatures required for labeling [superscript 105]RH. The chelate systems PS2, P2N2, and P2S2 have been...
Method development for the analysis of nuclear forensic signatures with ICP-MS
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Nuclear forensic analysis is a field of analytical chemistry that focuses specifically on analyzing signatures of nuclear material for criminal investigation. Promising nuclear forensic signatures include rare earths element ...
Synthesis and reactivity of low-valent uranium and neptunium complexes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Chapter 1 reports the synthesis and characterization of U(IV) and Np(IV) selenium bis(phenolate) complexes. The reaction of the U(IV) complex with half an equivalent of p-benzoquinone results in the formation of a U(V)--U(V) ...
Fission product diffusion in ig-110 graphite
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
The threat of global climate change and resultant disasters has never been higher. The promises made by many countries of carbon neutrality by 2050 will be impossible to achieve without nuclear technology. Global public ...
Pertechnetate immobilization with sulfide in aqueous media under anaerobic and aerobic environments
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Technetium-99 (Tc-99) is a high yield radionuclide produced from thermal neutron fission. As a consequence of the development of nuclear weapons over ...
Transition metal catalysts for the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to value added materials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
used ligands iPrPNMeP and iPrPNHP. We used these ligands to isolate and characterize a series of ruthenium hydride complexes and demonstrated their very different catalytic ability for formic acid dehydrogenation and hydrogenation of carbon dioxide...
Production of high specific activity rhenium-186 for radiotherapeutic applications and reformulation of a novel liquid brachytherapy agent
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
The continued development of methods for the production and separation of high specific activity (HSA) rhenium-186 (t1/2 = 90.64 h, Eb-ave = 359 keV (71 percent), 306 keV (22 percent)) would largely increase its use as a ...
Alkene-oxo and alkene-alkene coupling on Pt(II)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
the norbornene reaction, which gave platinaoxetane [(COD)2Pt2(OC7H10)Cl]BF4 (4), the first metallaoxetane obtained from the direct reaction of an oxo complex and an alkene. A facile alkene-exchange reaction was observed between platinaoxetane 4 and norbornene...
Solvatochromic pyrogallarenes and pyrogallarene crystals
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Pyrogallarenes have the ability to self-assemble into a variety of structures. Crystal forms ranging from bilayers to dimers and hexamers have been isolated. One unique cocrystal, PgC[subscript 3]-(CH[subscript 3])[subscript ...
Evaluation for ammonium bifluoride dissolution for application to post-detonation nuclear forensics and rare Earth element extraction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] If a nuclear device were to be used in an act of terrorism, prompt nuclear forensic analysis of the post-detonation debris is crucial in order to ...
Quantum aspects of roaming dynamics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
with the aid of multireference calculations to characterize the nature of the electronic excitations. A series of triplet states were identified to preferentially dissociate to Cl or Cl*. Infrared multiphoton excitation and infrared multiphoton dissociation...
LC-MS/MS method development for quantitative analysis of cyanogenic glycosides in elderberry and lipid peroxidation products in mice
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Cyanogenic glycosides (CNGs) are naturally occurring plant molecules (nitrogenous plant secondary metabolites) which consist of an aglycone and a sugar moiety. Hydrogen cyanide (HCN) is released from these compounds following ...
Prospective radiolabled bombesin conjugates for prostate cancer imaging and therapeutic agents
