A Computational Mechanistic Study of an Aza-Michael Addition and a Paal-Knorr Reaction
(2015-01-13)
Computational chemistry is a rapid growing branch of chemistry that seeks to interpret chemical problems and predict chemical phenomena using mathematical approximations and computer programs. In the present work, we ...
Copper(II)-Mediated 2-Quinoxalinol Salens in Alcohol Oxidation and C-H Activation: A Greener Approach
(2014-07-11)
Reduction of waste production in chemical processes is the idea of greener chemistry by using less toxic or benign methods and eliminating purification steps. Because of this, using a catalytic rather than stoichiometric ...
Polymeric System for Photochemical Generation of H2O2 and Initiator for Photoreduction of Hexavalent Chromium
(2014-12-04)
Stimuli responsive polymers (SRPs) have become a technological advancement in areas of materials, pharmaceuticals, and biomedical applications because the polymers can respond to small changes in the environment which can ...
Human Glutaminase Interacting Protein (GIP): a Potential Candidate for Anti-Cancer Drug Design
(2011-08-04)
PDZ domains are one of the most ubiquitous protein-protein interaction modules found in living systems. The glutaminase interacting protein (GIP), also known as the Tax interacting protein 1 (TIP-1), is a PDZ domain ...
Quinoxalinol based ligand for molecular recognition and selective extraction
(2014-04-29)
As the current age of nuclear reactors gets older, more waste and a greater
possibility of leaks can occur. There is a need for an on-site real time ability to be able to
detect actinides in the environment to prevent a ...
Formation and Passivation of Sub-Nanoliter Droplets for High Throughput Biological Assay Platforms
(2014-07-24)
In Vitro Compartmentalization (IVC) is a technique that utilizes water-in-oil emulsion droplets of fL – nL volume to compartmentalize and perform biological reactions and assays in parallel. At its highest capacity it has ...
Methyl-coenzyme M reductase: Elucidating the process of activation and study of the effect of the methanogenesis inhibitor 3-nitrooxypropanol
(2014-12-17)
To use methane as a biocatalyst, it is important to establish a cell free system to convert the inactive form of methane forming enzyme i.e Methyl-coenzyme M reductase (MCR) to the active form. MCR catalyzes the reversible ...
2-Quinoxalinol Based Schiff Base Ligands in Copper(II)-Mediated C-H Activation
(2012-08-01)
As environment and energy issues become of increasing concern, so too does our awareness of the impacts of chemical industry. Numerous successful attempts toward “green” or “greener” chemistry have been made. Among these, ...
Bipolar Electrochemistry: Chemical Analysis Based on Electrochemiluminescence and Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
(2015-07-24)
Bipolar electrochemistry has a variety of applications ranging from chemical analysis, material modification and synthesis, to generate motions, etc, and it is also a very simple, cheap, useful technology. The main goal ...
Two Iron-Sulfur Proteins Involved in Isoprenoid Biosynthesis with New Catalytic Roles
(2010-08-05)
(E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl diphosphate synthase (GcpE or IspG) and (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl diphosphate reductase (LytB or IspH) are involved in the last two steps of the DOXP pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis. ...
