Isotope Labeling Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry: Metabolite Identification and Human Salivary Metabolome Profiling
DownloadFall 2012
The objective of this work was to use paired labeling reagents that are chemically identical but isotopically different to provide a simple and robust way of mass spectrometry (MS)-based metabolome profiling. A differential 13C-/12C-isotope dansyl chloride (DnsCl) derivatization strategy has been...

Profiling Alkyl Phosphates in Petroleum Samples by Comprehensive Two-dimensional Gas Chromatography with Nitrogen-phosphorus Detection (GC×GC-NPD)
DownloadFall 2014
The profiling of alkyl phosphates in petroleum samples is of particular interest to refineries that process conventional crude oil derived from the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin and other similar geologies. This is due to alkyl phosphate-based additives used during crude oil recovery...

Spring 2012
Silicon nanocrystals (Si-NCs) have been suggested for sensing and lasing applications due to their low-toxicity and compatibility with existing microelectronic technologies. Their broad luminescence, due to homogeneous (150 meV or 40 nm at room temperature) and inhomogeneous broadening, may...

The construction of diverse nitrogen-containing heterocycles via the reaction of amines of azides with metallocarbenes
DownloadFall 2011
A fundamental goal in organic chemistry is the development of new and innovative ways of transforming simple building blocks into complex structures. The formation of ylides from the reaction of metallocarbenes with heteroatoms, such as the nitrogen of an amine or azide, is an example of a...

Earth-Abundant Transition Metal Hydride Complexes for Dehydrocoupling and Hydrosilylation Catalysis
DownloadFall 2015
The research presented in this thesis details the synthesis of transition metal hydride complexes, with the focus on utilising these complexes for (a) the dehydrocoupling of amine-borane adducts, and (b) the hydrosilylation and hydroboration of unsaturated organic moieties. In both instances,...
