Several members of the ABC-6 zeolite family, namely offretite, zeolite T, ZSM-34 and zeolite L, were synthesised with a view to studying the effect of synthetic parameters on the resulting crystal properties. A range of procedures for producing offretite and ZSM-34 were tested, …
This thesis outlines work carried out in the last three years concerning the development of novel, atom-economic, catalytic syntheses of amide bonds, determination of the ranges of these reactions through substrate screenings and investigations into the mechanisms by which the r…
A series of novel europium(III) based anion receptors [Eu.1-8] for nucleoside polyphosphate anions have been designed and synthesized. A study of their binding abilities was carried out in buffered aqueous media against a range of biologically relevant anions. It was demonstrate…
In 2006, the secondary metabolite leiodolide A was isolated from a newly discovered deep-sea sponge of the genus Leiodermatium. The 19-membered macrolide represented a new class of mixed polyketide, nonribosomal, peptide synthetase natural products. A total synthesis of leiodoli…
Tertiary thiols are a synthetically challenging class of compounds to prepare asymmetrically. The few reported methods for preparing these species require restrictive functionality to be incorporated into the products or are limited to employing simple carbon electrophiles. This…
