    • The synthesis and chemical properties of some compounds containing the perinaphthene nucleus 

      Bonthrone, William (University of St Andrews, 1958) - Thesis
      This thesis comprises three parts, Parts A, B and C. Part A commences with a very brief survey based on the chemical literature of the concept of aromaticity. A number of excellent reviews covering both the historical and ...

    • Reactions of long chain esters leading to oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds 

      Abbot, Graham George (University of St Andrews, 1970) - Thesis
      With the intention of preparing long chain esters containing a carbocyclic system, methyl linoleate and related esters were subjected to strongly acidic reaction conditions. The major product of the reaction, however, was ...

    • Cyclopentadienylides 

      Sneezum, John Stuart (University of St Andrews, 1959) - Thesis
      Cyclopontadienylides (e.g, (III)) were prepared from dibromocyclopentene (l) b the action of cyclic organic bases followed by treatment with caustic alkali. The intermediate was shown to be the dibromide of the diquaternary ...

    • Researches into the synthesis of some degradation products of emetine 

      Ure, George Reid (University of St Andrews, 1954) - Thesis
      The root bark of several species of the ipecacuanha plant, notably Cephaelis ipecacuanha and Psychotria acuminate, contains at least five alkaloids, of which the principal one is emetine. The minor alkaloids are closely ...

    • Synthesis of novel heterocyclic polymers 

      Emans, John (University of St Andrews, 1987) - Thesis
      This work details the synthesis, characterisation and fabrication of a range of copolyesters, containing various angular disrupters, especially disubstituted 2,5-diphenyl- -1,3,4-oxadiazoles. These disrupters were incorporated ...
