Supramolecular Chemistry On Carbon Dioxide
(Chemistry, 2008-04-22)
This dissertation describes approaches towards designs, syntheses, characterizations, and applications of supramolecular chemistry on carbon dioxide. Chapter 1 briefly overviews the field of supramolecular chemistry and ...
Ral Interacting Protein (Ralbp1): Linking Glutathione Conjugate Transport To Oxidative Stress Defenses And Signaling Pathways
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-08-08)
The glutathione-conjugate transporter protein DNP-SG ATPase was demonstrated to be identical to the independently cloned Ral-effector, Ralbp1. Glutathione-conjugate transport is linked to substrate-stimulated ATPase activity, ...
Synthetic Studies And Biological Evaluation Of Imidazole-containing Marine Alkaloids
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-08-08)
This dissertation discusses the synthetic methods towards and the preliminary biological studies of an unnamed, imidazole-containing alkaloid, derived from the marine species Oceanapia. This alkaloid was first discovered ...
Ring Closing Enyne Metathesis Of Imidazole Derivatives And Subsequent Diels-Alder Reaction
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-08-08)
The work presented in this thesis describes the development of new synthetic routes to elaborate simple imidazole derivatives into complex imidazole molecules by the application of different sequential transformations.
The ...
Ralbp1 In Stress Resistance
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-08-08)
Ralbp1 is a multi-specific transporter of glutathione conjugates as well as unconjugated amphiphilic toxins. Because glutathione conjugates are major metabolites of toxic lipid peroxidation products generated as a consequence ...
Studies Towards Bioactive Imidazoles
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-04-22)
The work presented in this thesis focuses on the development of an enantioselective and practical route form the total synthesis of villagorgin via haplosleridamine imidazole alkaloid containing β- carboline moiety by ...
Novel Phenomena In Encapsulating Hydrocarbon Gases
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-04-22)
The use of hydrophobic forces for entrapment of gases in water will be discussed. Natural hydrocarbons, haloalkanes, and anesthetic gases are hydrophobic in nature. In the course of this investigation water-soluble molecular ...
Multiply Charged Cationic Pairing Agents For Trace Analysis Of Anionic Species By Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-04-22)
Electrospray ionization is one of the most broadly useful and successful approaches for coupling high performance liquid chromatography to mass spectrometry. Most of the research in electrospray ionization mass spectrometry ...
Ionic Liquids: Syntheses, Characterization And Applications In Analytical Chemistry
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-08-08)
Multifunctional ionic liquids (esp. dicationic and dianionic) have been shown to have a greater range of physical properties than most traditional, singly charged ILs. In this work, 28 novel tricationic ILs with specific ...
Assemblies Of Assemblies: Supramolecular Ordering Of Nanoscopic Ruthenium Polypyridyl Building Blocks
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2008-04-22)
Biological systems have long since perfected the development of
nanoengineering. Cellular structure and machinery is based, to a significant extent, on
the formation of nanometer to micron-sized assemblies of proteins. ...
