Novel reactivity of silver isocyanide complexes and palladium bis(acyclic diaminocarbenes) as catalyst for the Nazarov cyclization
(2009-12)
Scope and Method of Study: Inorganic Chemistry
Synthesis and applications of tungsten and vanadium oxides/oxyhydroxides in both bulk and nanoparticulate forms
(2016-12)
The reactions of tungstic acid towards alkenes, alkynes, and nitriles were explored in order to determine the scope of its reactions with unsaturated hydrocarbons. The chemistry was found to be complex with small changes ...
Synthesis, reactivity, and catalytic studies of transition metal complexes of chelating cyclic and acyclic diaminocarbene ligands
(2008-12)
Since the first report of a stable diaminocarbene by Arduengo in 1991, carbene ligands have been widely explored in organometallic chemistry due to their favorable features in catalysis. In order to find broad applications ...
Neutral monolithic capillary columns with alkyl and aryl ligands for reversed-phase capillary electrochromatography
(2010-07)
Scope and Method of Study:
Simultaneous spectrophotometric and chemometric determination of cholesterol and mono-/polyunsaturated fatty acids
(2012-05)
Scope and Method of Study: The ultimate goal of this research project was to complete the development of a simple, direct alternative method for the simultaneous quantitative determination of cholesterol and polyunsaturated ...
Self-assembled polymer nanocomposites and their networks
(2013-12)
This dissertation describes new routes to synthesize polymer nanocomposite networks via self-assembly. Polymerizable structure directing agents (referred to as surfmers) obtained by end-group functionalization preserves ...
Tailoring of polymer-nanomaterial interactions
(2012-12)
Scope and Method of Study: The purpose of this research work is to investigate polymer nanomaterial interaction to understand the properties of the polymer nanocomposites. The first part of the dissertation explored the ...
Development of cross coupling reactions with earth abundant metals
(2016-12)
The ability to prepare complex molecules has been advanced and enabled by crosscoupling reactions as exemplified by the 2010 Nobel Prize being awarded to the progenitors of palladium catalyzed cross-coupling technology. ...
