Interactions of Light with Organic Chromophores: A Photochemical and Photophysical Investigation
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Over the past century, light has emerged as a useful tool finding utility in various fields such as device fabrication, the medical field, as well as utility as an energy source. Chemist have adopted this abundant energy ...
Achiral Templates in Asymmetric Catalysis: Applications in Construction of All Carbon Quaternary Centers
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Conjugated olefins are readily available and inexpensive starting materials and their functionalization offers a rapid access to many important building blocks for organic synthesis. The functionalization of these olefins ...
Synthesis of Precursors to Non-isocyanate Polyurethanes
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Biobased diamines are excellent precursors for the synthesis of non-isocyanate polyurethanes (NIPUs). We have prepared several biobased diamines using three different reactions for their synthesis. In the first method, we ...
Polymers and Coatings Derived From Novel Bio-Based Vinyl Ether Monomers
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
To fulfill the demand for household, industrial, light weight transportation, health, and cosmetic products etc., production of polymeric materials has been increasing every year. However, limited resource of fossil fuel ...
