Coordination chemistry of bithiazole ligands: a comparative study of the 2,2’ and 4,4’ isomers
(2019)The bithiazole ring system consists of two thiazole (C3NS) aromatic rings. There are many regioisomers but two of potential interest for coordination chemistry are the 2,2’-bis(1,3-thiazole) and the 4,4’-bis(1,3-thiazole), ... -
The design of Zr metal-organic frameworks in the detection and neutralization of organophosphorus based nerve agents and pesticides
(2022)Organophosphates are ubiquitous in uses ranging from chemical warfare agents (CWA’s) to detergents. In between these two extreme uses lie organophosphorus-based agrichemicals, primarily pesticides, which are applied in ... -
Self-assembled thin films of thiocyanate and selenocyanate bithiophenes
(2015-06-15)Presented herein is the organic synthesis and thin film (TF) assembly of six alkyl-substituted thiocyante and selenocyante bithiophene molecules: NCSe-T2-Hx, NCS-T2-Hx, NCS-Hx-T2-Hx, NCSe- Hx-T2-Hx, NCS-Hx-T2-Hx-SCN and ... -
Synthesis and characterization of donor-acceptor oligothiophenes
(2005)The field of organic conductors is multidisciplinary in nature. This thesis introduces and characterizes new conducting materials based on heterosubstituted oligothiophenes. Substituted bithiophenes, terthiophenes, and ... -
Transition metal ligands for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions and the coordination of radionuclides - studies towards aurora kinase inhibition for PET imaging
(2023)This thesis is wide-ranging covering disparate areas of synthetic organic and metalorganic chemistry, unified by the general use of these projects in medicinal chemistry. Two organometallic palladium complexes 2.3 and ...
