Development Of An On-Line Computer System For Cyclic Voltammetry Studies, Tai-Lee Leo Huo Jul 1985

Development Of An On-Line Computer System For Cyclic Voltammetry Studies, Tai-Lee Leo Huo

Chemistry & Biochemistry Theses & Dissertations

An Apple II Plus microcomputer was interfaced to a PAR 174A Polarographic Analyser, an HP 7O4OA X-Y recorder and a three-electrode system. This on-line computer system was applied to Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) studies. The interfacing involved both hardware and software development. Various hardware components were used to amplify and transmit the analog signal both going into the computer and coming from the computer. Software programs were written for staircase waveform generation, data acquisition, and plotting the voltammograms obtained.

A package was designed for CV experiments to be used by the students in the instrumental analysis laboratory. This package contains several …


The Synthesis And Evaluation Of A New Analog Of Phencyclidine (Pcp), William H. Johnson Jr. Apr 1985

The Synthesis And Evaluation Of A New Analog Of Phencyclidine (Pcp), William H. Johnson Jr.

Chemistry & Biochemistry Theses & Dissertations

Based on an interpretation of the literature of phencyclidine (PCP) together with an examination of the relevant models or prototype structures, this research has attempted to design and synthesize a rigid analog of the phencyclidine structure. The parent ring systems suggested for this study were the 1-arnino and 2-arninornethyltetralins, 10 and, 12.

Several organic compounds, based on this design, have been prepared by classical examples of reductive alkylation reactions of the corresponding 2-hydroxyciethylene-1-tetralones, 11, and by the condensation and subsequent reductive alkylation of the 1-arninotetralin, 9. These arninomethyltetralones, 28, 29 and 30, together with an example of a substituted 1-arninotetralin, …
