The purpose of this study was to find out the structural and bonding properties of the intermediates in the Friedel-Crafts reactions.

The Mistunobu reaction was first reported by Oyo Mitsunobu in the Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japanin 1967, with a follow-up review in Synthesisin 1981. A recent literature search using Web of Science reveals that ...

The purpose of this study is to synthesize and characterize smart polymer-grafted colloidal silica particles in order to better understand and tune the smart characteristics and properties.

Our objective is to synthesize different 6-aryldibenzo [b,d]pyrylium salts. By varying the R groups, we can examine the communication between electron donors and acceptors across extended ring systems.

In order to determine if PEG-PDMAEMA serves as both a polymer and a surfactant in EOR, testing of how viscosity and interfacial tension change of the aqueous PEG-PDMAEMA solution is needed. This can predict its ability ...

The ligand introduced during Janus formation could exchange with the cross-linker, reducing film integrity, and allowing for rotation and diffusion into liquid phases. To reduce this risk, we sought to take advantage oft ...

We are interested in the effects of bulk, condensed-phase media on the structural properties of molecular complexes, with an eye toward systems that change structure when the chemical environment is altered.

Strengthening instruction in STEM fields can benefit student learning as well as foster positive attitudes towards the sciences. This project tries to answer the question whether there is a measurable difference in ...

A liquid crystal is state of matter that simultaneously displays properties of both a liquid and a solid. Liquid Crystals have applications in liquid crystal displays (LCD’s) and optical imaging. Liquid crystals or “mesogens” ...

In 1859, Aleksandr Mikhailovich Butlerov (1828-1886) had just returned to Kazan after spending akomandirivka (official study leave) in the laboratory of Charles Adolphe Wurtz (1817-1884) in Paris, where he became a member ...
