The Dipole Moments Of A Series Of N, N-Diphenylbenzamides, James William Cooke Jul 1956

The Dipole Moments Of A Series Of N, N-Diphenylbenzamides, James William Cooke

Master's Theses

In recent years amides have been used in synthetic fibers, plastics and in medicinal chemistry. Under­ standably, the literature contains many preparations and reactions of unsubstituted, monosubstituted and disubstituted amides, however, their structure has received very little attention. The information avail­ able on the amide group structure originates from studies made on the unsubstituted and mono substituted compounds. The phenomenon of association of the amides has received considerable attention.


Some Views Of Slavery From The Writings Of Virginia Authors, 1824-1865, Josephine Mary Logan Jul 1956

Some Views Of Slavery From The Writings Of Virginia Authors, 1824-1865, Josephine Mary Logan

Master's Theses

The period from 1824 to 1865 was a most critical one in the history of the United States. It was during those years that issues of great magnitude arose. After a period of discussion, views crystallized and finally became fundamental beliefs in the minds of the people of both the North and tho South. The result of those beliefs culminated in the Civil war. Tho issues were concerned chiefly with the question or states' rights, tho protective tariff, and, last but not least, with that of African slavery.

In Virginia, which had been the first of tho English colonies in …


A Study Of The Junior High School Intramural Sports Program In The Richmond Public Schools, Sattler Burns Anderson Jul 1956

A Study Of The Junior High School Intramural Sports Program In The Richmond Public Schools, Sattler Burns Anderson

Master's Theses

There has been much progress made in the field of intramural sports in the past forty years. With the rapid advancement and acceptance by leaders and students, it is imperative that educators strive to produce a better intramural sports program through continuous research. Because so much of the literature in this field has dealt with the high school or college intramural program, a more careful study needs to be made of the junior high school intramural sports program.


The History Of Interposition, John Harrison Geiser Jul 1956

The History Of Interposition, John Harrison Geiser

Master's Theses

As long as governments, laws and regulations have existed, men have sought means to challenge, circumvent and annul them. Whether honorably or selfishly motivated, only time, the great revelator can prove; and few lessons learned serve to prevent mens thoughts from again straying to these channels or desire.

To thoroughly exhaust the subject or desire in man to resist authority in government would be to re-write mythology and add still another labor to the burdens or Hercules. To do it completely would involve a lifetime of study, another of writing, and would necessitate encompassing all knowledge of men, religion, government …


A Historical Survey Of Methods Of Solving Cubic Equations, Minna Burgess Connor Jul 1956

A Historical Survey Of Methods Of Solving Cubic Equations, Minna Burgess Connor

Master's Theses

It has been said that the labor-saving devices ot this modern age have been made possible by the untiring efforts of lazy men. While working with cubic equations, solving them according to the standard methods appearing in modern text-books on the theory of equations, it became apparent, that in many cases, the finding of solutions was a long and tedious process involving numerical calculations into which numerous errors could creep. Confessing to laziness, and having been told at an impressionable age that "any fool can do it the hard way but it takes a genius to find the easy …


Tetrazolium Salts, Andrew Garnett Richardson Jun 1956

Tetrazolium Salts, Andrew Garnett Richardson

Master's Theses

Tetrazolium salts, as the name indicates, are quartenary. Substitution is possible on positions 2, 3, and 5 of the ring as is shown in type formula (I). When these substituent groups are bifunctional ditetrazolium salts of types (II), (III), and (IV) result. Compounds bridged at both R' and R'' at the same time are theoretical possible, but no such cases have been reported, probably on account of the practical limitations of synthesis. The anion, which is indicated by X, may be halide, sulfate, acetate, picrate, succinate, thiocyanate, or practically any atom or group capable of existing as a negative ion.


Observations On The Morphology, Physiology, And Life History Of Allescheria Boydii Shear, Robert Denton Flory Apr 1956

Observations On The Morphology, Physiology, And Life History Of Allescheria Boydii Shear, Robert Denton Flory

Master's Theses

Of those organisms upon the face of the earth displaying a wide range of variability, excellent examples may be found amoung certain groups of the fungi. This extreme variation as noted in certain fungal groups becomes even more interesting when the phenomenon of sexuality is eliminated or of rare occur­rence as in many of the Fungi Imperfecti. Such extreme varia­tions occur in Allescheria Boydii, whose historical background is as interesting as the growth of the fungus itself.

In 1909 Tarozzi (46)isolated a fungus organism as the causative agent in a Sardinian case of mycetoma. Tarozzi referred this fungus to Saccardo, …

An Analysis Of The Civil Defense Program In The Public Schools In Critical Target Areas And Target Areas In Virginia, Osborne Lawes

Master's Theses

Today, in a period of relative peace in the world, the radio and the press continually point out the constant threats to our nation's security. The role of the civilian is being more closely defined with our national security program with continuing emphasis being laid upon Civil Defense. The educator today must recognize his role in the program for furthering the security of the nation and above all must work toward the self-protection of bis school and his student body through active participation in the nation's Civil Defense Program

Chelation Of The Transition Metal Ions With A Series Of Polyhodrozyamine Compounds, William Percy Moore Jan 1956

Chelation Of The Transition Metal Ions With A Series Of Polyhodrozyamine Compounds, William Percy Moore

Master's Theses

Chelation was reviewed with emphasis on the work done by contemporary workers.

The following polyhydroxyamine compounds were synthesized, purified and· analyzed:

1,2-bis[tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]ethane dihydrochloride

1,3-b1s[tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]propane dihydrochloride

1,3-b1s[tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]-2-propanone dihydrochloride

1,2,3-tris[tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino)propane tri­ hydrochloride

The latter two compounds have not been reported in the literature.

Chelates were prepared by reacting the above compounds, and 1-3bis[tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamino]-2-propanol dihydrochloride ("disec") and the "disec" free base, with the ions of the first transition metals. Stability cons­tants were obtained where appreciable coordination occurred before precipitation of the metallic ion took place . A list of the metal ions studied with one or more chelating agents follows: Cu+2, …
