    • The electrochemical oxidation of alcohols 
      Lentsch, Steven Eugene (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1975)
      The electrochemical oxidation of aliphatic and tert-benzylic alcohols has been studied. Voltammetry was used to demonstrate that the alcohols are oxidized directly at the anode surface. It was found that acetonitrile and ...
    • Investigations of the mechanistic details and potential synthetic applications of the di-[pi]-methane rearrangement 
      Bracken, Christopher Andrew (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)
      The di-π-methane rearrangement has been shown to be of very general scope. During the course of a study designed to broaden the scope of this rearrangement by including a nitrogen atom in the backbone of the di-π-methane ...
    • A mechanistic study of heteroatom di-pi-methane systems containing silicon and nitrogen 
      Krochmal, Emil (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)
      A series of substituted divinylsilanes: dimethyl-distyryl-(11). Triphenyl-stryrl-(12), diphenyl-distyryl(13), have been prepared for photochemical study. The results of low conversion photolyses of the di-methyl-di-styrylsilane ...
    • NMR studies and rotational isomerism in fluoroacetones 
      Lin, Hung-leo (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)
      The subject matter of this dissertation is an NMR study of α-haloacetones. In order to probe into the related structural questions of rotational isomerism, configurational equilibria, conformational analysis, etc., proton ...
    • Oxygen based radicals in organic chemistry 
      Van de Mark, Michael Roy (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1976)
      The remote oxidation of unactivated carbon-hydrogen bonds by photo-excited nitrobenzene and benzophenone derivatives is described. The procedure is illustrated by the key step in the conversion of 5α-androstand-3α-of to ...
    • Rhenium and technetium porphyrin complexes with unusual geometries 
      Hrung, Chang-Po (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1975)
      Monometallic and bimetallic porphyrin complexes of rhenium and technetium nave been synthesized by reaction of stoichiometric quantities of Re₂(CO)�₀ or Tc₂(CO)�₀ with porphyrin In refluxing decalin under argon. ...
