Dynamics of Nanoconfined Acetonitrile
(University of Kansas, 2011-04-27)The results of dynamics simulations of confined acetonitrile are presented. Confinement is achieved by filling previously formed silica pores having hydroxyl-terminated head groups with liquid acetonitrile. These pores are ... -
Structural and Biochemical Investigations of the Mechanism of Heme Capture by the Hemophore HasAp from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(University of Kansas, 2011-04-16)HasAp is a hemophore secreted by Pseudomonas aeruginosa to the extracellular media under iron limited conditions to sequester heme from the host cell. The heme HasAp complex is captured by the specific cell surface receptor ... -
Asymmetric Synthesis of 1,3-anti-Diol Containing Subunits using Phosphorus-Based Tethers: Application in the Total Synthesis of Dolabelide C
(University of Kansas, 2010-12-16)The focus of this dissertation is the desymmetrization of C2-symmetric 1,3-anti-diols through the construction of pseudo-C2-symmetric phosphorus heterocycles, bearing a chirotopic, non-stereogenic center at phosphorus. ... -
Investigation of Carbamathione Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics by In Vivo Microdialysis and Capillary Electrophoresis
(University of Kansas, 2010-11-10)The pharmacological basis for the use of the drug disulfiram for alcoholism is its inhibition of liver aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2). Recent studies have reported that disulfiram exhibited an anti-craving effect with both ... -
Regioselective acylation of 2-methoxynaphthalene catalyzed by a C-H superacid and chemistry of mercaptoazulenes
(University of Kansas, 2010-01-01)Abstract This Thesis work consists of three Chapters. The first two chapters describe the synthesis and catalytic application of carbon-based superacids and attempts of their immobilization on inorganic supports. ... -
Synthesis and Decarboxylative Coupling of Sulfonyl Acetic Esters
(University of Kansas, 2010-04-28)The synthesis and palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative allylation (DCA) of α-sulfonyl allyl esters is the central focus of this dissertation. Specifically we describe the development of the racemic reaction in which the ... -
A Crossover Mechanistic Investigation of the Wolff vs. photo-Favorskii Rearrangement of Diazo-p-Hydroxyacetophenone: Methoxy Substituent Effects on p-Hydroxyphenacyl Cage; Exploratory Studies of Hydroxyquinoline-Based Phototriggers
(University of Kansas, 2010-01-28)A series of substituted p-hydroxyphenacyl (pHP) and 8-hydroxyquinoline photoremovable protecting groups were designed, synthesized and their photochemistry explored. The light-induced release of phosphates, carboxylates, ... -
Assessment of the Efficacy of Blended Learning in an Introductory Pharmacy Class
(University of Kansas, 2010-04-26)Blended learning is the convergence between traditional face-to-face learning typically seen in a university setting and a computer-mediated learning environment, and is increasingly being seen as a viable alternative for ... -
Exploratory Photochemistry: Pushing the Boundaries of the p-Hydroxyphenacyl Photoremovable Protecting Group
(University of Kansas, 2009-11-30)Abstract Exploratory Photochemistry: Pushing the Boundaries of the p-Hydroxyphenacyl Photoremovable Protecting Group A. Exploratory and Mechanistic Photochemistry B. Novel Applications of the p-Hydroxyphenacyl Photoremovable ... -
Single Molecule Probes of Lipid Membrane Structure
(University of Kansas, 2009-12-14)Biological membranes are highly heterogeneous structures that are thought to use this heterogeneity to organize and modify the function of membrane constituents. Probing membrane organization, structure, and changes therein ... -
New Development of Theoretical and Computational Methods for Probing Strong-Field Multiphoton Processes
(University of Kansas, 2009-12-02)The study of the strong-field multiphoton processes is a subject of much current significance in physics and chemistry. Recent progress of laser technology has triggered a burst of attosecond science where the electron ... -
Single-Molecule Spectroscopic Tools for Measuring Microsecond to Millisecond Dynamics of Calmodulin
(University of Kansas, 2009-09-01)Single-molecule spectroscopy has developed into a powerful tool for the study of biological systems. The ability to observe single protein changes has revealed a great deal of information about the heterogeneity of these ... -
