Investigating the structure and bonding of phosphorus, antimony, bismuth and silicon peri-substituted acenaphthenes
(2021-11-30) - ThesisThe work presented in this thesis explores an array of peri-substituted acenaphthenes on the continuum of highly attractive 2c−2e donor−acceptor interactions through to repulsive, non-bonding species. Particular interest ... -
Structures and formation mechanisms of some hierarchical and superstructured materials
(2021-06-30) - ThesisThis PhD project concentrates on the investigation of micro and nanostructure of superstructured materials, inclusive of biological-controlled, bio-induced, and artificially synthesised materials, aiming to hypothesise ... -
Biosynthesis of the antibiotic nucleocidin in Streptomyces calvus
(2021-11-30) - ThesisFluorometabolites are a group of rare plant or bacterial natural products with around ten members. A most interesting organofluorine natural product is nucleocidin. Nucleocidin is an antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces ... -
Kinetics and structure of cold- and warm-adapted (𝘙)-3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase
(2022-06-15) - ThesisTemperature is a critical variable influencing the rate of chemical reactions and plays a key role in the evolution of enzymes. Considering that life likely arose in a hot environment and primordial enzymes had a thermophilic ...
