    • Supramolecular Functionalization of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes 

      Yilmaz, Baris (North Dakota State University, 2013)
      Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) possess extraordinary mechanical strength, thermal and electrical conductivity. These properties make them very attractive in many applications in the fields of nanotechnology, ...

    • Synthesis and Applications of Dialdehydes 

      Grieger, Krystal Dawn (North Dakota State University, 2018)
      Due to their reactivity and ease of functional group interconversions, aldehydes have wide-ranging applications in polymer synthesis, such as polyacetals, epoxy resins, and polyurethanes. Recently, room temperature synthesis ...

    • Synthesis and Photophysics of Platinum(II) Terdentate and Bidentate Complexes. 

      Yi, Jing (North Dakota State University, 2010)
      Platinum(ll) terdentate and bidentate complexes possess square-planar d8 configuration. The moderate metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (1MLCT) absorption, 3MLCT emission, and broadband excited-state absorption are the ...

    • Synthesis of Precursors to Non-isocyanate Polyurethanes 

      Wei, Manqing (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 ...

    • VIP Induces Snail1, A Master EMT Regulator: Upregulation in A375 Cancer Cells 

      Al-Badrani, Sejaa (North Dakota State University, 2021)
      VIP is neurotransmitter with pleiotropic functions in mammals. It is expressed by a large number of tissues, including the CNS, PNS, innate and adaptive immune systems. VIP has two endogenous G-protein coupled receptors, ...
