Understanding the Solution Phase Chemistry and Solid State Thermodynamic Behavior of Pharmaceutical Cocrystals.
(2012)
This dissertation focuses on the thermodynamic stability and solubility of pharmaceutical cocrystals. Specifically, the objectives are to; (i) investigate the influence of coformer properties such as solubility and ionization ...
Investigation of the Optical Properties of Novel Organic Macromolecules for Solar Cell Applications.
(2015)
The search for renewable energy sources to replace fossil fuel has been a major research focus in the energy sector. The sun, with its vast amount of energy, remains the most abundant and ubiquitous energy source that far ...
Probing Heat Transport and Energy Conversion at the Atomic and Single Molecule Scale
(2018)
The study of heat transport and energy conversion constitutes an important subject in modern physics and engineering research. The widely-applied Fourier’s and Planck’s laws have proven to be very useful to describe heat ...
Systematic Improvement of Quantification and Formulation of Synthetic Protein Nanoparticles for Gene Delivery
(2022)
Gene therapy is a promising field for the generation of new and more effective therapies, but its application is stymied by the lack of safe and efficient delivery vehicles. Furthermore, gene delivery system optimization ...
Hsp70 chaperone Proteins and their Interactions with Various Drugs as Studied by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.
(2011)
Chaperone proteins and their cochaperones are perhaps one of the most intriguing systems for investigation. Ubiquitous in nature, they can be found in every organism and that perhaps is the reason that their sequence shows ...
Formal Cycloadditions Driven by the Homolytic Opening of Strained, Saturated Ring Systems
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2023-01-23)
The field of strain-driven, radical formal cycloadditions is experiencing a surge in activity motivated by a renaissance in free radical chemistry and growing demand for sp3-rich ring systems. The former has been driven ...
Superior Metal-Organic Framework Activation with Dimethyl Ether
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-12-23)
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are demonstrated to be readily activated by treatment with the low surface tension, low boiling point solvent dimethyl ether (DME). The mildness of the method enables access to high surface ...
Transparent and Self-Healing Elastomers for Reconfigurable 3D Materials
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-12)
Transparent soft materials are widely used in applications ranging from packaging to flexible displays, wearable devices, and optical lenses. Nevertheless, soft materials are susceptible to mechanical damage, leading to ...
Photochemical C(sp2)−H Pyridination via Arene–Pyridinium Electron Donor–Acceptor Complexes
(Wiley Periodicals, Inc., 2022-11-14)
This report describes the development of a photochemical method for C(sp2)−H pyridination that leverages the photoexcitation of electron donor–acceptor (EDA) complexes. Experimental and DFT studies show that black light ...
Manning condensation in ion exchange membranes: A review on ion partitioning and diffusion models
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2022-11-01)
The rational design of ion exchange membranes (IEMs) is becoming more pertinent as their usage becomes broader and as their staple applications (i.e., electrodialysis, flow batteries, and fuel cells) improve in commercial ...
