Samarium(II)-mediated reactions in organic synthesis - method development and mechanistic investigation
(2010-04-07)This thesis describes the development of methods using divalent samarium reagents in organic synthesis. The main focus is placed on functional group reductions, but reductive formation of carbon-carbon bonds has also been ... -
Structure and Function of Aqua(glycero)porins - A Path to Drug Design
(2011-04-05)Membrane proteins are a major class of the drug targets. Rational design of drugs requires knowledge about the structure and function of these proteins. Working with membrane proteins, however, is experimentally challenging ... -
Structure, phase behavior, and dynamics of colloidal systems characterized by strong, short- and moderate-ranged attractions: a computational study
(2010-11-03)Attractions between colloidal particles are often so strong that non-equilibrium behavior results. However, dissolved non-adsorbing polymer can be added to give a weak attraction between particles so that equilibrium phase ... -
Synthesis of Novel Inhibitors of IdeS, a Bacterial Cysteine Protease Including Studies of Stereoselective Reductive Aminations
(2011-09-30)Abstract The cysteine protease IdeS is an IgG degrading enzyme secreted by the bacterium Streptococcus pyogenes to evade the human immune system. In this thesis several inhibitors of IdeS have been synthesized and ... -
Theoretical Investigations of the Role of Ion-Ion Correlations and Ion-Specific Interactions in Electric Double Layers
(2009-09-10)Electric double layers are ubiquitous, arising in some form in almost every situation involving an interface with an aqueous electrolyte solution. In order to gain insight into the behavior of electrolytes and electric ...
