NOVEL G-QUADRUPLEX BINDERS WITH POTENTIAL FOR A DUAL DNA CROSS-LINKING MECHANISM OF ACTION
… Originally, alkylating agents were used as "mustard gas" and related chemical weapons in World War I. Alkylating agents, in general, can react with one or two different 7-N-guanine residues and could potentially result in the cross-linkage of DNA strands, preventing uncoiling of the DNA …

Ring-opening Metathesis Polymerization for the Creation of Responsive Colloids and Surfaces
… chemical-warfare-agents, including Sarin and Mustard Gas. In Chapter 5, a sterically hindered cyclobutene is synthesized as a potential ROMP monomer and its polymerization reactivity is explored. This cyclobutene is further epoxidated to give a highly reactive cyclobutane epoxide, of which the …

Displacing War Experience: Military Technology and the More-than-Human Politics of Empire
… Anglo-Zulu War (1879); the use of aeroplanes and mustard gas by Fascist Italy in the Abyssinian War (1935-6); and the extensive development of simulation technologies in the US Army around the First Gulf War (1990-1). My enquiry provocatively shows how the sources that should most explicitly …

Fundamental Investigations of Hazardous Gas Uptake and Binding in Metal-Organic Frameworks and Polyurethane Films
… A molecular-level understanding of the nature of gas–surface interactions is critical to the development of next generation materials for applications such as gas storage and separation, chemical sensing, catalysis, energy conversion, and protective coatings. Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and …

The Binding of the Micronutrient Transition Metals to the Alkylation Products of Chemical Warfare Agent, Sulfur Mustard, and Thiols, Potentially Giving New Understanding to Physiological Effects of Exposure and Increased Toxicity
… alkylation of the chemical weapon, sulfur mustard, were synthesized. It is shown that TTDPA forms complexes with key metal micronutrients: copper, nickel, cobalt, manganese, and zinc. Though the strength of binding to TTDPA varies, the complexes in many cases precipitate from solution. All …
