Ab initio SCF-MO calculations on linear triatomic molecules
(University of St Andrews, 1981) - ThesisSingle configuration wave functions for the ground states of several small species have been calculated – 0CC ³Σ⁻ ; CNC ²π ; NCO ²π ; NC ²Σ⁺ ; PC ²Σ⁺ ; OBO ²π Extended, Slater function basis sets were used in these ... -
Thermodynamics of concentrated aqueous solutions of halide mixtures
(University of St Andrews, 1978) - ThesisThe object of this work was mainly the adaptation to other partial molar quantities of the method which KcKay and Perring developed for the activity coefficients of solute components in mixed solutions. Equations were ... -
Photophysical studies of polymers
(University of St Andrews, 1976) - ThesisOne means of stabilising a polymer against irradiation involves energy transfer between a fluorescent polymer (donor) and a photostabiliser (acceptor) which removes some of the absorbed energy from the polymer. Polymers ... -
Amidocyclohexadienes in synthesis of biologically active compounds
(University of St Andrews, 2003) - ThesisA summary of tin hydride mediated reactions in generating radicals in organic synthesis is presented, together with some of the many alternative methods available for conducting radical reactions. Particular attention has ... -
Substitution reactions of arylated oxadiazoles and related compounds
(University of St Andrews, 1978) - ThesisThe nitrations of 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole and 2,5-diphenyloxazole are investigated. Previously, there have been problems associated with the separation of isomeric products in such reactions. We have developed ...
