An Fe (Iii) - Initiated Oxidase Reaction With Ferroxidase-Ii, Glenn Alexander Hegamyer

Master's Theses

A reaction involving iron as an intermediary electron carrier for the coupling of electron transfer from an endogenous substrate to ferroxidase-I has been proposed.

The enzymic nature of the reacti on has been established and studies with iron chelating agents have demonstrated the involvement of Fe(III). The kinetic parameters of ferroxidase-11 with Fe (lll) were found to be quite similar to those previously established for Fe(Il). The participation by the copper associated with ferroxi dase-11 was ascertained by use of the copper chelating agent, diethyl -di thio-carbamate .

A variety of substances normally found in blood were surveyed as possible …

Approximation Of Compact Homogeneous Maps, John R. Hubbard

Department of Math & Statistics Faculty Publications

Within the clasp of continuous homogeneous maps between Banach spaces, it is proved that every compact map can be uniformly approximated by finite-rank maps. This result is obtained by means of the classical metric projection on Banach spaces.

The Synthesis Of Some Potential Antimalarials : The 3-(4- Choloropheny1) -5, 7- Dichloronaphthylaminoalcohols, Dwight Allen Shamblee

Master's Theses

A new scheme is presented for the preparation of 3~(4-chlorophenyl)-5,7-dichloro-l-methylnaphthalene, from which, four derivatives, 3~(4-chlorophenyl)-~-di(n-butyl)aminomethyl~5,7-dichloro-l-naphthalene-methanol hydrochloride, 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-5,7-dichloro-~-(2-piperidyl)-1-naphthalenemethanol acetate, l-[3-(4-chlorophenyl)-5,77dichloro-lnaphthyl]-3-di(n-butyl)aminopropanol hydrochloride, and 1-[3-(4-chlorophenyl)-5, 7-dichloro-l-naph,thyl]-2-(2-piperidyl) ethanol hydrochloride, were prepared. These four derivatives were submitted to Walter Reed Army Institute of Research for. the determination of their potential as antimalarial agents.
