    • Aldol Reactions - Isotope Effects, Mechanism and Dynamic Effects 
      Vetticatt, Mathew J. (2011-02-22)
      The mechanism of three important aldol reactions and a biomimetic transamination is investigated using a combination of experimental kinetic isotope effects (KIEs), standard theoretical calculations and dynamics ...
    • Dynamic Effects in Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions 
      Bogle, Xavier Sheldon (2012-02-14)
      In order to rationally optimize a reaction, it is necessary to have a thorough understanding of its mechanism. Consequently, great effort has been made to elucidate a variety of reaction mechanisms. However, the fundamental ...
