Creator:: Su, Dong
Abstract:: Azaspiracid-1, a novel marine toxin that contains 9 rings and 20 stereogenic centers, has drawn considerable attention from synthetic groups worldwide due to its structural complexity, which includes a unique trioxabisspiroketal fused to a tetrahydrofuran ring (ABCD rings), a piperidine-tetrahydrofuran spiroaminal system fused to a 2,9-dioxabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane system (FGHI rings), a...

Creator:: Naffziger, Michael R.
Abstract:: The work described herein details the synthesis and application of biphenyls that probe the effects of hydrogen, Cl / Br, and methyl substituents on the aryl ring of the terminal acetylenic carbon. From this work, we successfully developed the rapid synthesis of phenyl acetylenes in 3-4 steps from inexpensive commercially...

Creator:: Carlson, Erik
Abstract:: Effective methods for the enantiopure formation of substituted piperidine rings are significantly important due to their presence in alkaloid products. A valuable method to form these ring systems would be via an intramolecular heteroatom Michael addition from the corresponding enone or enal. Described herein is a methodolgy that has been...

Creator:: McIntosh, Melissa Luana
Abstract:: Nitroaromatic compounds have important chemical applications and can be found in nature as pollution sources. Synthetic nitroaromatic compounds have been used in a variety of materials including explosives, pharmaceuticals, dyes, plastics, and pesticides. These compounds can find their way into the environment through normal or improper disposal methods. Poly-aromatic compounds...

Creator:: Bell, Harry Thomas
Abstract:: The life history of the Obscure Root Weevil, Sciopithes obscurus (Horn), on Rhododendron was studied at four sites in the Willamette Valley. This research was conducted in an effort to provide information necessary to develop adequate methods to control this Curculionid pest on Rhododendron in the Willamette Valley. Five larval...

Creator:: La Lone, Ralph Stanley
Abstract:: Two types of exogenous mortality factors, density-independent and density-dependent, were identified for the black vine weevil, Otiorhynchus sulcatus Fab., developing on container grown rhododendrons. The addition of the insecticide acephate, (O.S.- Dimethyl acetylphosphoramidothioate, Orthene®)75S) to the rhizosphere of rhododendrons in which larval O. sulcatus develop was categorized as a density-independent...

Creator:: Suharto, Hendarsih
Abstract:: The relationship between pea enation mosaic virus (PEMV) and aging pea aphids was studied. Although this research initially emphasized the relationship between the decline in the rate of PEMV transmission and the 'concentration of PEMV within pea aphids, aphid age was found to be the principle factor influencing transmission. Enzymelinked...

Creator:: Eulensen, Gustav Egon
Abstract:: The transmission of strawberry mottle virus (SMV) to Fragaria vesca L. by Chaetosiphon thomasi and C. fragaefolii was studied to determine differences between the two species. Acquisition, inoculation, and retention phases of transmission were described. In all phases, C. fragaefolii was found to be the more efficient vector. Mean transmission...
