On The Existence And Stability Of Liquid Water On The Martian Surface, Justin Thompson
On The Existence And Stability Of Liquid Water On The Martian Surface, Justin Thompson
Inquiry: The University of Arkansas Undergraduate Research Journal
Present-day Mars is thought to be a frozen desert on which liquid water is not likely to be found. The prevailing assumption has been that due to average temperatures below 273 K and atmospheric pressures at or below water's triple-point vapor pressure of 6.1 mbar, the existence of liquid water as an equilibrium phase at or near the surface is impossible at the present epoch. However, there is substantial evidence that liquid water has existed in the past and may presently still exist on or directly below the Martian surface. I conducted simulation experiments in the Andromeda planetary environmental chamber …
Chemical Composition Of Particles Of D < 0.20 Mu In The Lower Stratospheric Aerosol, Spring 1993, Joseph D. Scott, David M. Chittenden Ii
Chemical Composition Of Particles Of D < 0.20 Mu In The Lower Stratospheric Aerosol, Spring 1993, Joseph D. Scott, David M. Chittenden Ii
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
The majority of the mass of stratospheric aerosol collected during the spring of 1993 consisted principally of particles of d >0.20 mu containing a mixture of H2SO4 and (NaK)2SO4. However, the composition of the more numerous particles with d< 0.2 mu was very different. X-ray emission spectra (EDS) of individual particles indicated that there were three different chemical populations of small particles. The most numerous population was almost all C with only traces of S and Na. The second population contained metal sulfates and chlorides, possibly accreted to a C-containing matrix. The third population consisted of S- and Cl- containing species and trace amounts of Na and K ions. The number of equivalents of metal ion was much less than that of S and Cl species, indicating that most of the S and Cl was not ionic, but was covalently bonded, perhaps to a C matrix.
Synthesis And Chemistry Of Naphthalene Annulated Trienyl Iron Complexes: Potential Anticancer Dna Alkylation Reagents, Traci Means
Synthesis And Chemistry Of Naphthalene Annulated Trienyl Iron Complexes: Potential Anticancer Dna Alkylation Reagents, Traci Means
Inquiry: The University of Arkansas Undergraduate Research Journal
Iron complex chemistry that opens a new door to the medicinal and pharmaceutical worlds is the aim of this research. Specifically, ortho-quinone methide moieties are intermediates in several antitumor drugs and have been identified as bioreductive alkylators of DNA. In our research, a class of iron compounds has been targeted to resemble these quinone methides. It is hoped that these new compounds could be modified to provide a window of opportunity toward the discovery of a selective mode of drug delivery. We have focused our efforts on generating a reactive transition metal complexed 5-membered ring analog of o-quinone methide based …
Solid Phase Extraction Of Pesticides With Determination By Gas Chromatography, Anwar A. Bhuiyan, Harry O. Brotherton
Solid Phase Extraction Of Pesticides With Determination By Gas Chromatography, Anwar A. Bhuiyan, Harry O. Brotherton
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
A simple, rapid, and effective method for the extraction of fifteen organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides based on the use of solid phase Bond Elut C-18 cartridges was studied as an alternative method to those based on extraction with organic solvents. Solid phase extraction is an attractive chromatographic sample preparation technology that reduces analysis time, costs, labor, and solvent consumption relative to traditional liquid/liquid extraction methods. The sample recoveries with the use of solid phase extractions were excellent for most pesticides. Analyte concentration by a factor as great as 1000-fold was achieved readily. The adsorbed pesticides were eluted from the solid …

Double Cysteine Mutations In Staphylococcal Nuclease: The Effect Of Artificially Introduced Disulfide Bonds On Protein Structure And Stability, Anna Terry
Inquiry: The University of Arkansas Undergraduate Research Journal
Since a protein's function depends on its structure, basic research in protein structure facilitates the solution of many practical problems, such as the synthesis of more effective medicines. With this larger goal in sight, the purpose of this research project is to understand better the chemical principles that underlie protein structure and stability. Disulfide bonds are a potentially stabilizing feature of many proteins. They may form between cysteine residues in close proximity to one another if the orientation is favorable. Often found in proteins produced by organisms that grow at high temperatures, disulfide bonds may anchor side chains together, making …

Preparation Of An Electrophilic 3-Methylindole Derivative: Difficulties In Forming A Stable, Suitable Material For The Preparation Of Tryptophan, Jason Boggs, Mariah Mcmasters, Robert W. Curley Jr., Michael J. Panigot
Preparation Of An Electrophilic 3-Methylindole Derivative: Difficulties In Forming A Stable, Suitable Material For The Preparation Of Tryptophan, Jason Boggs, Mariah Mcmasters, Robert W. Curley Jr., Michael J. Panigot
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
In an attempt to prepare stereoselectively beta-deuterated tryptophan, N-protected indole-3-methanol compounds were prepared with model studies being done on undeuterated material. Conversion of these compounds to electrophilic species proved exceptionally difficult and resulted in very low yields or recovered starting material only. A summary of the current results utilizing N-tosyl indole-3-methanol will be presented as well as efforts using N-Boc indole-3-methanol.
Studies Of Tryptophans In Membrane- Spanning "Walp" Peptides By Deuterium Nmr Spectroscopy, Nichole Reed
Studies Of Tryptophans In Membrane- Spanning "Walp" Peptides By Deuterium Nmr Spectroscopy, Nichole Reed
Inquiry: The University of Arkansas Undergraduate Research Journal
WALP pep tides of sequence acetyl-Gly-Trp-Trp-(Leu-Ala)-Trp-Trp-Ala-ethanolamine insert into lipid bilayers as membrane-spanning a-helices and modulate the lipid phase behavior as functions of n and the lipid acyl chain length. A key feature of the WALP peptides is the positioning of tryptophan (Trp) indole rings at the membrane/water interface. For the examples WALP19 with n = 6.5 and WALP23 with n = 8.5, we have labeled individual indoles with deuterium and incorporated the labeled peptides in oriented, hydrated bilayers of Dimyristoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC). Deuterium NMR spectra from these samples show sharp resonances when the membrane normal is aligned either parallel (Beta = …

Reaction Of Alpine-Borane With Aldehydes: Reactivity Rate Assessment By Observation Of The Disappearance Of The Carbonyl N - Pi* Peak By Uv-Visible Spectroscopy, Layla Bland, Michael J. Panigot
Reaction Of Alpine-Borane With Aldehydes: Reactivity Rate Assessment By Observation Of The Disappearance Of The Carbonyl N - Pi* Peak By Uv-Visible Spectroscopy, Layla Bland, Michael J. Panigot
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Due to an unexpectedly difficult reduction of indole-3-carbaldehyde and of isobutyraldehyde using the chiral reducing agent Alpine-Borane, the reactivity of several aliphatic, aromatic, and unsaturated aldehydes was investigated. This was done in order to determine whether there was a relationship between aldehyde structure and reduction rate. It was found that aliphatic aldehydes and aromatic aldehydes with no strongly electron-donating groups on the arene ring reduced faster than unsaturated aldehydes.
Analysis Of A Mixture Of Several Dihalonicotinic Acids By Gas Chromotography And Gas Chromotography-Mass Spectrometry, Cheryl L. Fossler, Frank L. Setliff, Ali U. Shaikh
Analysis Of A Mixture Of Several Dihalonicotinic Acids By Gas Chromotography And Gas Chromotography-Mass Spectrometry, Cheryl L. Fossler, Frank L. Setliff, Ali U. Shaikh
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Six 2,5- and 5,6- dihalonicotinic acids in a mixture were converted to their corresponding methyl esters and then analyzed by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Four methods of conversion were compared for their GC sensitivity, efficiency and analysis time. In Method #1, using HC1 and methanol as the reagents, the displacement of the halogens by chlorine (from HC1) at 2- and 6-positions was a common occurrence, rendering the method inefficient. In Method #2 (BF3/methanol), the displacement of halogens by methoxide was evident. Method #3 (dicyclohexylcarbodiimide/methanol) produced a mixture of derivatives with a poor yield. Method #4 (diazomethane) gave a …

Electrodeposition Of Copper Indium Sulfide Films From Organic Solutions, Arif Raza, Robert Engelken, Brandon Kemp, Imran Khan, Wasim Aleem, Chris Barber
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
We report on organic solutions ofCuCl 2 ,InClg, and elemental sulfur for electrodepositing CuIn x Sv films. CuInS 2 and CuInSe 2 are promising solar cellmaterials; our work on CuInSg prefaces planned work on plating CuInSe 2 from nonaqueous solvents. Two promising solvent systems are (1) mixed propylcne carbonate and water and (2) mixed ethylene glycol, propionic acid, and water (Engelken et al., 1988). Gray-brown films ofCuInx Sy (nominally GuInS2 ) have been plated from both baths. Major problems include (1) reduction ofCu+2 to Cu and Cu x S by the solvent at high temperatures (T>l()0°C), hence depleting Cu+2,(2) …
Scf-Mo Conformational Analysis Of Polycroconaine, T. E. Ezell, Jerry A. Darsey
Scf-Mo Conformational Analysis Of Polycroconaine, T. E. Ezell, Jerry A. Darsey
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Abinitio calculations at the STO-3G basis set level using GAUSSIAN 92 were conducted on the monomer unit of polycroconaine, a conducting polymer with conductive properties similar to several metals, in order to determine the most probable conformation of the monomer. We also compared the energy difference between the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals. Successive calculations were performed at dihedral angle intervals of 30° around the central bond of the monomer. Minimum energy was observed at 0° bond rotation, consistent with a theory that the polymer owes many of its conductive properties to a planar configuration in combination with …

Analysis Of Ammunition By X-Ray Fluorescence, Michael W. Rapp, Teddy L. Townsend
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Nondestructive analysis of lead shotgun pellets by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) shows considerable promise in assignment of the identity of the ammunition source. X-ray fluorescence spectra of various shotgun pellets and of standard alloys were obtained using an energy-dispersive instrument and an Am-241 source. The correlation obtained between the precent antimony in the standard alloys and the intensity of the Ka fluorescence peak from antimony was excellent. Peak areas from antimony in shotgun pellets were measured and compared to calibration plots from the standard alloys. The method was capable of distinguishing among lead-based alloys, such as ammunition, with antimony content as …

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
The reaction of Cp2TiCl2 with either the mono- or dipotassium salt of acetylenedicarboxylic acid (ADC) gives high yields of an insoluble orange product. The insoluble compound shows potential semiconductor behavior, as evidenced by an apparent bandgap in the orange region of the visible spectrum. Under N2 ,the compound decomposes at 238° C, eventually losing approximately 46% total mass up to 1350° C. The exothermic decomposition in air, beginning at 235° C, results in the formation of titanium oxides.

Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Anhydrous sol-gel condensation of triethyl phosphate [(CH3CH2O)3PO] with boron trichloride (BCL3 ) or triethyl aluminum [(CH3CH2 ) 3A1] in organic solvents, led to formation of metallophosphate gels. The pore fluid of the gels was removed under supercritical conditions in a pressurized vessel to form aerogels. The aerogels were then calcined at progressively higher temperatures to produce high surface area phosphates. Since the initial gel reagent mixtures contained several NMR active nuclei, the condensation chemistry prior to the gel point was monitored by solution nB NMR. The surface areas, distribution of pore sizes, and total pore volumes of the aerogel products …
Hammett Correlations Of Half-Wave Reduction Potentials In A Series Of N-(Aryl Substituted)-Dichloronicotinamides, Cecil C. Persons, Ali U. Shaikh, Julie Shiflett, Frank L. Setliff
Hammett Correlations Of Half-Wave Reduction Potentials In A Series Of N-(Aryl Substituted)-Dichloronicotinamides, Cecil C. Persons, Ali U. Shaikh, Julie Shiflett, Frank L. Setliff
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Excellent correlations of Hammett substituent constants (sigmaR) of a series of N-(R-substituted aryl) -2,6-, 2,5-, and 5,6- dichloronicotinamides with polarographic half-wave potentials were observed. Although the correlations demonstrate that all three series of amides experience comparable sensitivity to the R groups at the carbonyl reduction site, the relative ease of reduction varies according to the chlorine substitution pattern on the pyridine ring. These differences are suggested to be due to combinations of mesomeric, inductive, and field effects which operate differently in the three systems. Correlation analysis also revealed that Hammett heteroatomic replacement constants previously determined by NMR studies are valid …

Hammett Correlations In The 1H Nmr Spectra Of Some N-Arlydihalonicotinamides, Frank L. Setliff, Nikhil G. Soman, Jody Z. Caldwell, Debra L. Rogers
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Excellent linear correlations of amide proton chemical shifts (Snh) (in DMSO-d6 ) with Hammett substituent constants (5) for a series of 4-substituted anilides of four dihalonicotinic acid systems were observed. Dihalonicotinanilides with chlorine in the pyridine 2 - position exhibited a more positive slope in a Hammett plot of S^H vs - aR- where R is the substituent in the 4 position of the benzene ring. This observation is explained in terms of the inductive effect of chlorine which results in a slightly more acidic amide proton, which in turn causes an enhanced hydrogen bonding tendency to solvent. Four disubstituted …
