Transparent hybrid polymers created through thiol-ene click chemistry were obtained. Methacrylate and acrylate capped zirconium oxo-clusters (ZOCs) were incorporated into two thiol-ene polymer networks. The vinyl capping groups...
The orthogonal space tempering (OST) scheme is a robust and high-order generalized ensemble sampling method that can make sampling in MD simulation much more efficiently and recover the desired thermodynamic properties of interest in...
The hexokinase (HK) family of enzymes catalyze the conversion of glucose to glucose 6-phosphate in a process that is utilized for energy production in most organisms. Hexokinase IV, commonly known as glucokinase (GCK), is functionally...
This dissertation describes the development of several Cu(II)-promoted coupling reactions involving alkynes, including Cu(II)-mediated cyanation of terminal alkynes using NaCN, and Cu(II)-catalyzed oxidative formation of alkynyltriazoles...
This dissertation discloses the use of alkynes as a fundamental component in the design and development of new chemical reactions that pave the way for the construction of carbon-rich molecules and nanomaterials. Chapter 1 gives a short...
Since antiquity, alkaloid natural products have served as medicinal ingredients that still contribute as an inspiration for the development of novel therapeutics. For the synthetic chemist, much of the importance of natural products lies...
This dissertation discloses the work of several research projects involving stereoelectronic effects as a tool to control chemical reactivity. In particular, three areas have been discussed in details: 1. Taming oxygen-rich systems with...
