Spring 2013
Research was undertaken into the organic semiconductors tris(8- hydroxyquinoline)aluminum (Alq3) as well as bis(8-hydroxyquinoline)zinc (Znq2) to the effect of improving achievable morphological control using an inexpensive evaporation based solution synthesis method. By varying experimental...

Investigation of the Synthesis, Reactivity and Biological Properties of Various 6-Substituted D-Fructose Derivatives
DownloadFall 2017
The detection of small tumors growing in complex organs, including breast tissue, is a challenge in modern medical imaging. The use of positron emission tomography (PET) and tracer molecules containing radionuclei such as 18F have been of significant value to detect small tumors. The commonly...

Lewis Base Adducts of Borafluorene: En Route to Polymers and the Discovery of New Luminescent Adducts
DownloadFall 2013
A series of novel Lewis base monoadducts of 9-bromo-9-borafluorene (BrBFl•LB, LB = IPr, IPrCH2, PPh3) and the bisadduct [(DMAP)2BFl]Br were prepared and underwent reactivity studies in the pursuit of incorporating a borafluorene unit into a polymeric scaffold for the sensing of nucleophiles in...

POTENTIAL ANTHROPOSOL DEVELOPMENT USING PHOSPHOGYPSUM AS A SUBSTRATE WITH SOIL AND ORGANIC AMENDMENTS
DownloadFall 2015
Phopshopgypsum is a byproduct of phosphate fertilizer production resulting from the production of phosphoric acid from phosphate rock (Rutherford et al. 1994a). Most reclamation plans for phosphogypsum stacks include a cover system that is installed over the stack; thus research in the area of...

QTL mapping and genetic studies in the Attila x CDC Go spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) mapping population
DownloadSpring 2017
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important staple crops in the world. Wheat breeders in Canada primarily aim to develop cultivars with favored agronomic traits such as short stature, early maturity, high yielding, preferred end-use quality such as high protein content, and at...

Synthesis, Structure and Properties of a Novel “Frustrated” Benzoxaborole and the Role of Boron in Bioconjugation
DownloadSpring 2020
Chapter 2 describes an optimized 7-step successful synthesis of a first of its kind permanently open-form ortho-hydroxyalkyl arylboronic acid, otherwise known as a “frustrated benzoxaborole”, with a columnless purification and complete structure elucidation. This novel compound is completely...
