A reinvestigation of the molecular structure of cyclohexane-1,4-dione by electron diffraction

Creator:: Johnson, Robert David
Abstract:: We have investigated the gaseous structure of cyclohexane- 1,4-dione via electron diffraction. The large amplitude motion, as suggested from spectroscopic, dipole moment and earlier electron diffraction data was studied. The structure was refined in two types of models: a single "distorted boat" conformer, and a model comprised of a superposition...

Chiral synthesis of monic acid C

Creator:: Theramongkol, Parinya
Abstract:: Bromoalkoxylation of dihydropyran with bromine and 1-borneol, followed by dehydrobromination and epoxidation, afforded trans-2-1- bornyloxy-3,4-epoxytetrahydropyran as a major product. This was treated with sodium phenylselenide to give a 1:1 mixture of (2R,3R,4R)- 2-1-bornyloxy-3-hydroxy-4-phenylselenotetrahydropyran and its (2S,3S, 4S) diastereomer.

The infrared and far-infrared spectra of sublimed films of formaldehyde

Creator:: Held, Andrew Mackie
Abstract:: The infrared spectra of liquid and solid films of formaldehyde were taken over the range of 35 to 4,000 cm⁻¹ using Beckman IR 7 and IR 11 spectrometers. A new overtone band and a new combination band were found as well as three fundamental peaks due to lattice vibrations and...

The distribution of organic bases in reverse phase liquid chromatography : a study of mechanisms

Creator:: Jayasinghe, Dudley Shelton
Abstract:: The distribution of hydrophobic ionogenic organic compounds (HIOC's) between aqueous and nonaqueous phases has been investigated. The HIOC's are aniline and methyl substituted anilines. The aqueous phases are methanol-water mixed solvents with varying pH and ionic strength. The nonaqueous phases are silica and alkyl derivatized silica with ethyl- (C-2), octyl-...

The role of iron-oxides in U(VI) adsorption and the kinetics of contaminant organic reduction

Creator:: Logue, Brian A.
Abstract:: Contaminant transport in ground water is an important environmental process that affects a host of natural systems. Transport of contaminants is affected by many processes, including aqueous complexation, adsorption, and redox reactions. One of the most important components of an aquifer that controls transport is iron-oxide. In this study, the...
