Ring-fused nitrogen heterocycles by efficient synthetic strategies
(2020-05)
The first part of this work involved the synthesis of small molecules as potential inhibitors of the bacterioferritin B—bacterioferritin-associated ferredoxin (BfrB—Bfd) protein—protein interaction in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. ...
Novel materials chemistry for structural, photovoltaic, and environmental applications
(2018-05)
Alkali-silica reaction (ASR) causes the untimely degradation of concrete structures such as bridges, dams, and roadways. This reaction occurs due to the alkalis present in the cement and the reactive forms of silica found ...
Uphill catalysis: Generation of higher energetic geometrical isomers of (cyclo)alkenes using visible light photocatalysis and their utilization in chemical syntheses
(2018-07)
We have performed a systematic study of utilizing excited state surfaces to promote endergonic reactions. As such, catalysis of potential endergonic reactions has not been considered since thermal catalysis cannot promote ...
Functional studies on the n-terminal region of photoactive yellow protein
(2015-07)
Stimulus-induced release of helical elements attached to a PAS core is a recurring feature in PAS domain protein signaling. Photoactive yellow protein (PYP) is a bacterial PAS domain photoreceptor, which contains p-coumaric ...
Pattern recognition studies of complex spectroscopic data sets
(2016-12)
Profiling of complex samples using spectroscopic techniques continues to be an active area of research with a large and burgeoning literature. The overall goal of profile analysis is to correlate a characteristic fingerprint ...
Development of novel photocatalytic and nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions for the facile access of functionalized multifluorinated arenes
(2017-07)
Functionalized multifluorinated arenes are an important class of molecules, because the incorporation of fluorine can alter or enhance the properties of a molecule. Since there have been no naturally occurring fluoroaromatics ...
Amphiphilic block copolymers on a dendrimer core
(2007-05)
Scope and Method of Study: The purpose of this research was to synthesize amphiphilic block copolymers on a dendrimer core and to use the polymers as templates for styrene latexes at the nanoscale. Materials in this research ...
