(2016)Abstract available in PDF file. -
Theoretical and computer simulation of 2D / 3D hard core mixtures.
(2014)Abstract available in PDF file. -
The thermodynamics of complexation of the ligand KELEX 100 with various metal ions.
(1995)The experimental work conducted in this thesis was aimed at determining the thermodynamic quantities associated with the formation of complexes formed between various metal ions and KELEX 100, a ligand which is used ... -
The thermodynamics of liquid mixtures : an investigation into the low temperature bleaching of a cotton non- woven fabric using hydrogen peroxide.
(1993)This thesis is presented in two parts. In part one, the excess molar volumes and the excess molar enthalpies have been determined for several binary systems at 298.15 K using an LKB flow microcalorimeter and/or a 2277 ... -
Thermodynamics of liquid mixtures containing N-methyl-2- pyrrolidone.
(1997)This thesis involves a study of the thermodynamics of liquid mixtures containing N-methyl-2pyrrolidone (NMP) and hydrocarbons or ethers. NMP is a polar liquid which is used in liquid extraction procedures for the separation ... -
Towards novel Au (III) porphyrins : synthesis and characterization of a range of mesotetraalkylporphyrins.
(2007)The principal goal of this work was to synthesize and fully characterize a range of free -
Towards the synthesis of biotinylated boron compounds and 1, 3, 2 benzodiazaboroles derivatives and their application as potential BNCT delivery agents.
(2015)In this study, boron neutrons capture therapy (BNCT) principles which have been reported as the best treatment of glioblastoma multiforme tumors thus far were explored. The aim of this study was to synthesizing boron ... -
Towards the total synthesis of a novel diarylheptanoid.
(2010)Diarylheptanoids are a family of plant metabolites with a characteristic structure of two hydroxylated aromatic rings attached by a linear seven-carbon chain. Diarylheptanoids have mostly been isolated from plants belonging ... -
Toxic compounds in cycads.
(1990)The present-day cycads comprise the diverse, modified, remnants of a much larger group of gymnosperms which flourished in the Mezozoic era. The systematic position that the cycads occupy in the botanical hierarchy is ... -
Transfer hydrogenation of ketones mediated by (Pyrazolylmethyl) pyridine nickel (II) and iron (II) complexes.
(2016)Abstract available in PDF file. -
The transpassive behaviour of the anodic film on Fe-Cr alloys.
(1993)This work was undertaken to investigate the transpassive behaviour of the anodic film on two Fe-Cr alloys, namely Fe18Cr and Fe18Cr2Mo in acidic aqueous media in the pH range 0.5 to 3.8. Two electrochemical techniques were ... -
Tuning the reactivity of mononuclear tridentate platinum (II) complexes : a detailed kinetic and mechanistic approach using Azole Nucleophiles.
(2014)The kinetic substitution reactions of two different sets of mononuclear Platinum(II) complexes with heterocyclic bio-relevant azole nucleophiles, viz. Imidazole (Im), 1-methylimidazole (MIm), 1,2-Dimethylimidazole (DIm), ... -
Ultrasonic-accelerated rapid protocol for the green synthesis of heterocyclics and aromatic compounds.
(2015)Abstract available in PDF file. -
Ultrastabilized boranes : a study into the synthesis, structure and reactivities of heterosubstituted organoboranes.
(2011)Three heterosubstituted boranes were successfully synthesized from the corresponding amines and borane dimethyl sulfide (BH3·DMS) in high yields, and were noted to be significantly more stable than the analogous ... -
The use of ephedrine and camphor in asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions.
(1997)Due to the ever increasing demand for the production of enantiopure drugs and biologically active compounds, the study of asymmetric synthesis and the production of more efficient and cost effective methods of obtaining ... -
The use of hydroamination in the attempted synthesis of ant alkaloid 223H (xenovenine).
(2008)The ability to construct C-N bonds is of great importance to organic chemists as exemplified by the vast number of natural products, pharmaceutical agents and fine chemicals that contain such linkages. An atom efficient ... -
Waste minimisation at an air-conditioning company.
(2003)Waste minimisation involves reducing waste (emissions, effluent, solid waste) in companies, at source. v 7, 8 Its benefits include cost savings, environmental improvement, increased throughput and risk and liability ...
