Investigation of Halogen Bond Interactions of Chiral Molecules Using Infrared, Vibrational Circular Dichroism, NMR, UV-vis Spectroscopy and Density Functional Theory Calculations
DownloadFall 2023
This PhD thesis shows the application of different spectroscopic and theoretical tools to probe the extent and possible interaction between various Lewis acids (halogen bond donor) and Lewis bases (halogen bond acceptors). Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) that is the chiral version of...

Development of isotope labeling liquid chromatography mass spectrometry for metabolome analysis
DownloadSpring 2011
As the endpoint of the “omics” cascade, metabolomics has attracted much attention in the discovery of diagnostic or prognostic disease biomarkers, and as a powerful tool to understand biological and biochemical processes and mechanisms. The objective of my research was to develop a highly...

Carbon-Carbon Bond Formation and Unexpected Carbon-Hydrogen Bond Activation at Adjacent Metal Centres
DownloadSpring 2012
The formation of carbon–carbon (C–C) bonds is central to the transformation of small, readily available hydrocarbons into value-added products with useful chemical and physical properties. An important industrial process involving C–C bond formation is the Fischer-Tropsch (FT) process which...

Molecular Engineering and Electrochemical Characterization of Redox-active Electrolytes for Aqueous Redox Flow Batteries
DownloadFall 2021
Energy is one of the most indispensable ingredients in modern economies and is a critical cornerstone for the development of human society. In contrast to carbon-intensive legacy fossil fuels, low-carbon renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) provide a significant opportunity to...

The use of transition metal catalysts - either homogeneous (discrete well-defined metal complexes) or heterogeneous (more poorly-defined metal surfaces) - play an important role in the transformations of small substrates into larger, value-added compounds. Although heterogeneous catalysts have...
