Asymmetric Cuh-Catalyzed Reductive Coupling Of Allenamides With Carbonyl Electrophiles & Development Of Nanocatalysts For Heterogeneously Catalyzed Buchwald-Hartwig Amination, Raphael K. Klake
Theses and Dissertations
Many drugs and natural products contain multiple stereogenic carbons bearing heteroatoms throughout their carbon framework. Therefore, methods that can efficiently install multiple heteroatoms on a molecule are valuable. Reductive coupling reactions have been extensively studied, and the allylation of carbonyls via the reductive coupling approach has been a key method for generating chiral tertiary and secondary allylic alcohols. This work utilizes inexpensive Cu for the asymmetric reductive coupling of allenamides with carbonyls to simultaneously install two heteroatoms (oxygen and nitrogen) on the product. These molecules have a polarity profile that make them difficult to make using traditional methods. Herein, we …
Synthesis Of Unnatural Amino Acids For Genetic Encoding By The Pyrrolysyl-Trna/Rna Synthetase System, William A. Knight
Synthesis Of Unnatural Amino Acids For Genetic Encoding By The Pyrrolysyl-Trna/Rna Synthetase System, William A. Knight
Theses and Dissertations
The complexity of all biomolecules in existence today can be attributed to the variation of the amino acid repertoire. In nature, 20 canonical amino acids are translated to form these biomolecules, however, many of these amino acids have revealed posttranslational modifications (i.e. acetylation, methylation) after incorporation. Amino acids that exhibit PTM are known for their involvement in cellular processes such as DNA repair and DNA replication; these PTMs are commonly found on histones within the chromatin complex. Utilization of in vivo site-specific incorporation has recently reported functionality of post-translationally modified amino acids.1 xii Here we report the synthesis and in …

Synthesis Of Cyclen Based Receptors And Their Use In Separations Biotechnology., Vivek Kaushik
Theses and Dissertations
A number of purification techniques such as adsorption, centrifugation, chromatography, extraction, distillation, filtration, precipitation etc. to name a few, are commonly used for the purification. However, due to a constant need of purification of even more complex crude mixtures, be it reaction mixtures, various proteins and DNA from cell extracts or medicinal compounds and fragrances from plant extracts, scientists needed to consistently develop new and improved techniques of purification. One such great advancement in the field of chromatography was the development of affinity chromatography. It revolutionized the field of bioseparations technology, and the dream of single stage purification of complex …
