Water Soluble Porphyrin based Solar Cell

Subbaiyan, Navaneetha K. (Wichita State University. Graduate School, 2011-05-04)

Porphyrins are organic chromophores with structure very close to naturally occurring pigment in leaves Chlorophyll. In addition, blood cells are red due to iron porphyrins. These versatile porphyrins are simple to synthesize ...
What does that molecule look like? Using tandem mass spectrometry, computational chemistry and vibrational spectroscopy to determine molecular structure

Dain, Ryan P.; Van Stipdonk, Michael J. (Wichita State University. Graduate School, 2009-05-01)

Scientists wanting to determine the structure of a molecule have many tools at their disposal. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) allows one to study the fragmentation pathways of molecules, examining how a molecule will ...
X-ray snapshot of the mechanism of inactivation of human neutrophil elastase by 1,2,5-thiadiazolidin-3-one 1,1-dioxide derivatives

Huang, Weijun; Yamamoto, Yasufumi; Li, Yi; Dou, Dengfeng; Alliston, Kevin R.; Hanzlik, Robert P.; Williams, Todd D.; Groutas, William C. (American Chemical Society, 2008-04-10)

The mechanism of action of a general class of mechanism-based inhibitors of serine proteases, including human neutrophil elastase (HNE), has been elucidated by determining the X-ray crystal structure of an enzyme-inhibitor ...
