Photoassisted Generation Of Complex N, O, S Polyheterocycles, Weston James Umstead
Photoassisted Generation Of Complex N, O, S Polyheterocycles, Weston James Umstead
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
This research set out to continue the exploration and diversification of excited state o-azaxylylene cycloadditions, utilizing both pre-photochemical and post-photochemical modifications.
Pre-photochemical modifications came through the addition of heteroatoms, namely nitrogen and oxygen, to the tether that links the unsaturated photopendant to the photogenerated o-azaxylylene. Photochemistry resulted in the formation of new, interesting N, O, S polyheterocycles.
Post-photochemical modifications took place through several different cycloaddition reactions, including a [4+2] hetero-Diels Alder reaction, a [4+2] Povarov cyclization, a [3+2] nitrile oxide addition, and a [3+2] nitrone cyclization. These reactions were applied first to a model system, and then to …

Tuberculosis is a pulmonary disease that has ravaged the world throughout history. Even today, many developed and developing countries are experiencing this plight, made worse by the scourge of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis's class II fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase presents an interesting target in the design of new therapies against this disease. Previous attempts to construct an inhibitor to this enzyme fell short due to poor selectivity or poor cellular uptake. However a new class of noncompetitive inhibitor based on 8-hydoxyquinoline-2-carboxylic acid presents a fresh approach. Preliminary studies indicate various modifications to this scaffold could be beneficial to its inhibitory efficacy.

Relaxation Of Metals And Their Impact On Nitroxides, Priyanka Aggarwal
Relaxation Of Metals And Their Impact On Nitroxides, Priyanka Aggarwal
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Pulsed and continuous wave electron spin resonance were used to characterize the relaxation rates of selected paramagnetic metals at 5 to 15 K or 80 K, measure the impact of these rapidly relaxing metals on the relaxation rates of nitroxide radicals in glassy mixtures and in discrete complexes, and characterize novel iron-sulfur proteins.
Spin echoes were observed at 5 to 7 K in 1:1 water:glycerol for Er(diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid)2- (Er(DTPA)2-), Co(DTPA)3- and aquo Co2+ with relaxation times that are strongly temperature dependent. Deep proton modulation was present on spin echo decays (Ch. 3). For Gd …
Development Of Palladium Catalyzed Alkene Difunctionalization On Vinyl-Quinoline Type Substrate And Isolation Of Pd-Alkyl Intermediate, Lusha Xu
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The synthesis of quinoline derivatives is a continuing issue facing organic chemists in both academia and industry. To address this problem, palladium-catalyzed alkene difunctionalization was developed to be a powerful and straightforward strategy of synthetic transformations for adding diversity to organic molecules. In this thesis, Pd-catalyzed olefin difunctionalization reactions of vinyl-quinoline type substrate via generating Pd-alkyl intermediates were mainly described. The reactions described herein are pursuing three significant goals: 1) to isolate and recrystallize Pd-alkyl complexes; 2) to achieve oxidation reactions on Pd-alkyl intermediate; and 3) to investigate stereochemistry of nucleopalladation step on vinyl-quinoline starting materials.
