(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)New methods for Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions of aryl halides or arenesulfonates are described. Key to the success of these transformations is the proper choice of ligand and reaction conditions. Palladium catalysts ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)Chapter 1. The chelating ligand bis[2-(diphenylphosphino)phenyl] ether (DPEphos), in combination with palladium acetate, forms a highly active catalyst system for the coupling of anilines with aryl bromides. The bisphosphine ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Part I of this thesis describes a formal, metal-free, [2 + 2 + 2] cycloaddition strategy based on a cascade of two pericyclic processes. An intramolecular propargylic ene reaction of a 1,6-diyne is used to generate a ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)The generation, propagation and detection of THz phonon polaritons are studied through both femtosecond pump-probe techniques, and Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulations in this thesis. The theory surrounding the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)I. Phosphine-Promoted Cross-Coupling Reactions of Propargylcopper Alkenyl Iodides Reagents and Alkenyl Iodides. An electron-rich phosphine additive is critical and sufficient for propargyl-selective couplings of propargylcopper ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Oxygen is required for cellular respiration by all complex life making it a key metabolic profiling factor in biological systems. Tumors are defined by hypoxia (low pO2), which has been shown to influence response to ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)This thesis is focused on the synthesis and study of transition metal complexes that undergo halogen elimination when irradiated with UV and visible light. This chemistry is relevant for solar energy storage schemes in ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Charge transport and catalysis in enzymes often rely on amino acid radicals as intermediates. The generation and transport of these radicals are synonymous with proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), which intrinsically ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum(II), or cisplatin, is the most successful cancer drug ever discovered. It has been used for over 30 years in the treatment of several types of malignancies, with the highest success rates in ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Inspired by recent work demonstrating photocurrent enhancement in quantum-dot (QD) solids via post-deposition chemical annealing and by recent successes incorporating single monolayers of QDs in light-emitting devices ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Single-shot femtosecond spectroscopy has been developed and employed for the study of phase transitions of solid-state materials. Using two crossed echelons, a two dimensional spatial delay gradient was generated across a ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)This thesis explores the spectroscopic properties of phonon-polaritons, which are admixtures of coupled electromagnetic and mechanical vibrations in polar crystals. An in-depth theoretical treatment supplemented with ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The incorporation of semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) into sol-gel derived matrices presents both novel applications as well as a robust platform in which to investigate the nonlinear optical properties of NCs. This thesis ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have tunable opto-electronic properties and can be chemically synthesized and manipulated with ease, making them a promising novel material for many diverse applications. An understanding ...
