Development of a Fluorescence Excitation Spectroscopy System
(2015-04)
The overall goal of our experimental research program is to determine bond properties, such as vibrational frequencies, for small molecules.
Studying the Effects of Varying pH and Temperature on the Smart Polymer mPEG-block-PDMAEMA
(2018-04)
“Smart polymers” change their mechanical properties in response to changes in stimuli, such as pH, temperature, and polymer concentration. We chose to focus on the viscoelastic properties when determining the effects of ...
Structural and Energetic Properties of FCH2CN-GeF4 and CICH2CN-GeF4 Via Low-Temperature IR Spectroscopy and Computations
(2015-04)
The present study deals with nitrile-GeF4 complexes. We hypothesize that adding electronegative halogens to the nitrile will weaken the complex and enhance them.
Cavity Ringdown Spectrum of 2-Cyclohexen-1-one in Its Lowest Singlet Excited State
(2014-04)
The overall goal of our experimental research program is to determine bond properties, such as vibrational frequencies, for small molecules. Such data may be used by computational chemists to verify their theoretical ...
Analysis of the Antibody Binding of Derivative MUC1 Peptides via STD NMR
(2015-04)
This study analyzes the binding ability of the peptide GVTSAPD, an upstream sequence preceding PDTRP, as well as six derivative peptides against specific mouse MUC1 mucin monoclonal antibody (IgG1, 6A4) by Saturation ...

Quantum Mechnical/Molecular Mechanical Simulations of the Hydride Transfer Reactions in Quinone Reductase 2
(2015-04)
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the protein matrix on the energetics of the hydride transfer reaction, as well as understanding the role of the aromatic side chains on the hydride transfer reaction.
Tuning Smart Properties of mPEG-block-PDMAEMA Through Polymer Composition
(2017-11-15)
The purpose of this study was to study smart polymers. “Smart” polymers respond to changes in their environment with
a measureable change in property. Some smart polymers can
change their solubility when the conditions ...
Kinetics of Naphthalimide Aminolysis
(2015-04)
We have carried out kinetic studies using triethylamine as the base solvent in order to determine the kinetic order of the reaction with respect to the butylamine. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that ...
Steric and Catalytic Effects of Alcohols on the Transamination of Napthalimides
(2017-11-14)
This experiment describes a systematic study of the effects of the size of
alcohols on the transamination of N-(3-chlorophenyl)-4-chloro-1,8-
naphthalimide.
