Early rare earth metals (La, Ce, Pr, Nd) combined with late first row transition metals (Fe, Co, Ni) can produce low melting eutectic mixtures. For instance, a 75:25 mole percent mixture of La and Ni forms a eutectic that melts at 532 õC. We are inv....

Etherification and olefination reactions play an important role in synthetic organic chemistry on a daily basis. As organic chemists we apply these methods to tackle synthetic targets of ever increasing complexity. As a graduate student in the Dudley....

The development of reliable molecular scale building blocks for the construction of nanoscale devices is one of the greatest challenges for the development of numerous applications of these exciting materials. This research describes our efforts in t....

Takeshi Oka, Professor of Astronomy at the University of Chicago and discoverer of H3(+), positively ionised molecule of three protons, talks about the ways in which the various aspects of science are are all interlocked. In particular he shows the ....

The advantages and problems of organic light emitting diodes. Synthetic polyelectroltye methods are described.

Ligand exchange reactions were utilized in the production of aggregation-resistant gold nanoparticles, having an average diameter of 5 nm, comprising a gold core capped with a mixed shell of citrate and zwitterionic ligands. The prepared nanoparticl....

Prof Gregory Dudley presents on a research program developing under his direction at Florida State University. The research program is centered in synthetic organic chemistry, with a specific emphasis on electrophilic coupling and C-C bond cleavage ....
