Investigation Of Complex Formation By Oligomers Of Cytosine And Guanosine, Steven Roberts Davis
Investigation Of Complex Formation By Oligomers Of Cytosine And Guanosine, Steven Roberts Davis
Chemistry & Biochemistry Theses & Dissertations
Duplex formation between oligo(C:G) n where n=3 to 4 was shown not to occur under conditions favorable for duplex formation between poly G and poly C. Instead, a stable guano sine self-structure was found to form which a Tm of 50°C for (Gp)3 and 80°C for (Gp)4 at strand concentrations of 10-5M in 1M NaCl. Neither a duplex nor a self-structure formed in the absence of salt.
Oligomers of guanosine and cytosine were obtained by basic hydrolysis and separated according to chain length using DEAE Sephadex column chromatography. Separation of cytosine oligomers with chain lengths …
The Thermal And Photolytic Rearrangements Of Isatoic Acid Diazide, Ana Alejandre Ciereszko
The Thermal And Photolytic Rearrangements Of Isatoic Acid Diazide, Ana Alejandre Ciereszko
Chemistry & Biochemistry Theses & Dissertations
The primary objective of this research has been the thermolysis and photolysis of isatoic acid diazide 1. Thermolysis in low boiling solvents produced the acylazido benzimidazolone 10, while refluxing in high boiling solvents gave rise to the imidazoindazoline 31, presumably via Curtius rearrangements.
Photolysis of the diazide in methylene chloride gave rise to two photo products, 10 and 31, while photolysis in tetrahydrofuran produced only 31.
A study of the spectral and chemical characteristics of these products have been carried out.
