Cleavage Of Phosphate Ester Bonds By Use Of Novel Group 13 Chelate Compounds, David A. Atwood

Chemistry Faculty Patents

A novel chemical compound has a general formula (LX)nY wherein X is selected from a group consisting of a group 13 element other than boron, Y is selected from a group consisting of a halide, a chlorate, a sulfate and a nitrate and L is a chelating ligand containing two nitrogen and two oxygen donor groups where n=1 or 2.


Solution And Solid State Interactions Between Ionic Π-Systems, Jing Chen Jan 2006

Solution And Solid State Interactions Between Ionic Π-Systems, Jing Chen

University of Kentucky Doctoral Dissertations

Although attractive interactions between π systems (π-π interaction) have been known for many years, understanding of its origin is still incomplete. Quantitative measuring of π-stacking is challenging due to the weak nature of the π-π interaction. This dissertation aims at elucidating a quantitative conformational analysis by NMR ring current anisotropy of an organic compound capable of intramolecular π-stacking in solution and studying charge effects on the stacking of π-systems. This dissertation offers four contributions to the area. (1) A general approach to four-state, conformational analysis based on the magnetic anisotropy of molecules undergoing fast dynamic exchange is described. (2) Study …
