(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)A library of iridium complexes featuring oxazoline and imidazol-2-ylidene ligands were synthesized by reaction of a library of imidazoles with a second library of oxazoline iodides. These complexes were active catalysts ...
-
(2012-07-16)Hydrogenation of "largely unfunctionalized" alkenes has been an active area of research for about a decade. Many catalysts have been prepared but we noticed that comparatively few substrates have been studied and none of ...

(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The research in this dissertation examines the chemistry and applications of dendrimers in homogeneous catalysis. We examined interactions between dendrimers and charged probe molecules, prepared dendrimer-encapsulated ...

(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Dynamic models of a reactive distillation column have been developed and implemented in this work. A model describing the steady state behavior of the system has been built in a first step. The results from this steady ...

(2009-05-15)Asymmetric hydrogenation as a general route to polypropionates has been explored for allylic alcohols, acids, and derivatives, which has led to the generation of 2,4-dimethylated hexane derivatives. Quantitative yields in ...

(2017-10-24)The overall goal of the first project of this thesis was to find ways to improve homogeneous catalysts and render them more recyclable and thus improve their lifetimes. One way to generate such superior catalysts is to ...
