Testing of Burton's method to synthesize diamonds
A method was investigated to synthesize diamonds at atmospheric pressure without the use of diamond seed crystals. The method was first proposed by Burton in 1905 and appears to have been lost in the literature. The procedure is based on Ostwald's principle of the formation of metastable, …

Investigating the fundamentals of ring-opening metathesis polymerization to synthesize large, well-defined, bottlebrush polymers
Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) is a robust synthetic technique for synthesizing complex polymer architectures (topologies). To achieve complex architectures, specifically bottlebrush polymers, using ROMP, attaining the highest degree of living character is essential. As the molecular …

Attempts to Synthesize 5-(P-Acetoxyphenyl)-3-Carbomethoxy- 4,6-Dicarboethoxy-Hexa-Hydroindanedione-l,7-Delta 3-9
"Several classes of substances found In nature are compounds from the hydrocarbon cyclopentanoper-hydrophenanthrene, which for the sake of simplicity are called steroids". These natural compounds are oxygenated, alkyl-substituted derivatives of the parent hydrocarbon, and have the ring system given …

Characterization of Peptidoglycan, and the Enzymes that Synthesize it, in Borrelia burgdorferi and Insights into the Peptidoglycan of Other Pathogenic Borrelia
Peptidoglycan (PG) is an essential cell-wall biopolymer in virtually all bacteria. It is composed of glycan strands of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) and N-acetylmuramic acid (MurNAc) crosslinked by peptide chains of alternating D- and L- amino acids and diamines. PG plays an important role in 1) …

Enhancing the Use of Network Meta-analysis to Synthesize Information on Benefits and Harms of Drugs to Support Regulatory and Reimbursement Decisions in Canada
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Standard meta-analysis compares two treatments whereas network meta-analysis compares multiple treatments. In light of the increasing number of treatments available, we have seen a shift from using standard meta-analysis towards using network meta-analyses to support …

Selective Gamma Substitution of Alpha-Trimethylsilyl-Beta,gamma-Unsaturated Esters
… variety of methods were investigated in order to synthesize (alpha)-silyl-(beta),(gamma)-unsaturated esters. Although a nickel-catalyzed coupling reaction of vinyl bromides with lithium ethyl (alpha)-trimethylsilylacetate was employed to synthesize those esters utilized in subsequent reactions, an …
