Flipping the General Chemistry Laboratory : Increasing Student Engagement by Enhancing Self-Directed Learning
(2018-02-21)
The goal of this study is two-fold: to gather information about the impact of flipped and traditional teaching modes on student understanding of course material, as well measuring students' attitudes about chemistry. Our ...
Synthesis of Mucin Peptide Epitopes
(2018-05)
The MUC-1 mucin is a heavily glycosylated transmembrane protein found on the apical surface of the epithelial cells that contains a short cytoplasmic end and a long extracellular domain consisting of multiple 20-amino acid ...
Synthesis and Characterization of a Reversible and Tunable Smart Polymer
(2017-04-03)
Polymers are made of covalently bonded repeat units, called monomers, which make up long chains. The structure can be controlled to achieve a diblock copolymer with two different repeat units connected in blocks. “Smart” ...
Investigation of Student Attitudes and Understanding in General Chemistry
(2015-04)
This project aims to analyze the state of the current Chemistry 103 lab manual in order to understand the demands place on entry-level chemistry students.

(2015-04)
The purpose of this study was to find out the structural and bonding properties of the intermediates in the Friedel-Crafts reactions.
An Explanation of a-Cyanocinnamate Esters as a Replacement for DEAD in the Mitsunobu Reaction
(2017-12-22)
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 ...
Synthesis of Smart Polymer-Grafted Silica and Confocal Microscopy
(2018-01-09)
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.
Synthesis and Comparison of Various 6-aryldibenzo[b,d]pyrylium salts
(2015-04)
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.
