Satellite structure in the gas-phase X-ray photoelectron spectra of planar unsaturated molecules

Creator:: Chambers, Scott Alexander
Abstract:: The satellite structure ("shake-up") present in the X-ray photoelectron spectra of several planar molecules containing double bonds has been investigated in the gas phase. This set consists of three five-membered heterocyclic molecules, ethylene and two of its fluorinated analogs, and benzene with three of its fluorinated analogs. In addition, core...

Active site studies and design of ligands for affinity column separation of 2,5-dihydroxyacetanilide epoxidase (DHAE) I and II

Creator:: Allen, Scott E.
Abstract:: A series of compounds, 7-8 and 20-25, were tested as competitive inhibitors of 2,5-dihydroxyacetanilide epoxidase I (DHAE I) and DHAE II. A Hammett plot was constructed for each enzyme to determine the effect of electron density on inhibition. DHAE I gave a linear, highly correlated plot (r²=0.91) that signifies the...

Gas phase x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of compounds containing multiply-bonded oxygen

Creator:: Smith, Steven Reid
Abstract:: A new x-ray source capable of operating at up to 80 watts has been designed and developed, and put to use with the Oregon State University Cylindrical Electrostatic Analyzer. The new source produces over four times the photoelectron intensity of its predecessor, from gaseous samples, and accommodates a wider selection...

Photoelectron spectroscopy of small molecules

Creator:: Bomben, Kenneth D.
Abstract:: The photoelectron spectra of a series of halogenated molecules have been investigated in the gas phase. Both core-ionization energies and Auger kinetic energies were measured to probe the nature of the interaction that holds a core electron to the molecule. It was found that satellite structure (shake) could be used...

Experimental and theoretical investigation of the ability of oxygen-containing molecules to accept charge

Creator:: Siggel, Michele Ruth Fisher
Abstract:: The question of why carboxylic acids and phenols are stronger acids than alcohols has been investigated experimentally and theoretically. The experimental approach involves comparison of gas-phase acidities and core-ionization energies. The theoretical treatment uses calculated point potentials and acidities. The ease of proton removal is related to two factors known...

The conductivity of lead oxide doped potassium chloride single crystals

Creator:: Knepp, Donald Jack
Abstract:: A comparison was made of the d.c. conductivity of KCI:Pb²⁺ and KCl:PbO single crystals at temperatures greater than 325°C. The energy of activation was 0.72 ev for all crystals. Lead concentration was determined by chemical, optical and electrical methods. The half band width of the UV absorption band at 273...

Removal of Radioactive Strontium, Iodine, and Uranium from Contaminated Groundwater : Sorption Processes and Properties

Creator:: Leonard, Mary E.
Abstract:: Iodine-129 is a key risk driver at sites where nuclear materials have been fabricated or processed, and it is a predominant isotope of concern in long-term waste storage strategies. I-129 exists primarily as iodate in the subsurface at the Hanford Site in south-central Washington State. Between 15 and 40% of...

On the Properties and Characteristics of Solution Processed Hafnium Based Thin-Films from Aqueous Precursors

Creator:: Decker, Shawn R.
Abstract:: Aqueous hydroxo Hf nanoclusters enable studies to identify and codify steps in the deposition of Hf-based oxide thin films from solution precursors. HfOCl2 reacts with combinations of H2O2(aq), acids, and TMAH to produce polymetal species at high pH and low pH. X-ray scattering and spectroscopic methods reveal the nature of...

Computational Rationalizations of Mechanism and Stereocontrol in Small-Molecule Lewis Base Organocatalysis

Creator:: McCauley-Walden, Daniel W.
Abstract:: My work has focused on investigating synthetic organic reactions using applied computational methods. Non-covalent interactions are critical to catalysis, mechanism, and stereoselectivity, with the most prominent interaction for isothioureas being the S···O contact between the catalyst sulfur atom and the oxygen of the acyl group. A comprehensive joint experimental and...
