Cucurbit[7]uril Host-Guest Complexes With Drug Molecules Containing Isoquinoline Groups
Kwok, Julian (2011-09-30)This thesis describes the host-guest chemistry between cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) and various guests that contain isoquinoline groups, including tacrine, papaverine, N-methyl papaverinium, N-methyl laudanosinium, 6,7-dimeth ... -
Cucurbit[n]uril host-guest complexes: the effects of inclusion on the chemical reactivity and spectroscopic properties of aromatic guest molecules
Wang, Ruibing (2007-08-09)This thesis deals primarily with supramolecular chemistry based on cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n], n = 7 and 8) host molecules. The research has been focused on the synthesis and characterization of host-guest complexes CB[n] ... -
Host-Guest Chemistry Between Cucurbit[7]uril and Cationic and Neutral Guests
MacGillivray, Brendan (2012-09-15)This thesis describes the use of electrospray mass spectrometry, 1H NMR, and UV-visible spectroscopy, along with molecular modeling studies, to characterize the host-guest complexes that are formed between the cucurbit[7]uril ... -
Host-guest chemistry between cucurbit[7]uril and neutral and cationic guests
Wyman, Ian (2010-01-28)This thesis describes the host-guest chemistry between cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) and various series of guests, including neutral polar organic solvents, bis(pyridinium)alkane dications, local anaesthetics, acetylcholine ... -
Host-Guest Complexation Based on Cucurbiturils
Yuan, Lina (2008-01-29)This thesis deals with the effects of host-guest complexation, based on cucurbit[n]uril (CB[n], n = 6, 7 and 8) host molecule, on the chemical, electrochemical and spectroscopic properties of the included guests. Both CB[6] ... -
Host-Guest Complexes of Cucurbit[7]uril With Cationic Drugs and Amino Acid Derivatives
Gamal Eldin, Mona (2013-09-26)The host-guest chemistry between cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) and cationic organic guests of medicinal and biological interest are described in this thesis. In the first part, three cationic steroidal neuromuscular blockers ...
