Biomimetics and Host-Guest Chemistry
In an effort to produce the tetrahedrally coordinated, catalytically active zinc center, three families of tris(2-pyridyl)methanol derivatives were synthesized and characterized. Zinc binding studies revealed that the binding behaviors of the ligands depended on the steric and electronic properties …

Selectivity in host-guest compounds
It isn't easy to separate structurally similar guests by conventional methods such as distillation if the mixture components have similar functional groups and boiling points. This thesis aimed to investigate the relationship between the internal structures of host-guest compounds and the …

Analysis of hotel guest room supply
"Analysis of Hotel Guest Room Supply" is an exploratory paper that develops both a methodology and a model for estimating the expected number of hotel rooms at a destination location (MSA). The expected number of hotel employees at a destination are estimated from US government data (1980 Census of …

Molecular selectivity by host-guest methods
The Host-Guest inclusion crystallization method has long been used for the separation of closely related compounds. Especially for the separation of isomers which presented difficulties in techniques like distillation or chromatography. In this study, different host systems were used to separate …

Structural studies of supramolecular host-guest systems
… structure and function of supramolecular host-guest systems. Host-guest inclusion complexes were formed between β-Cyclodextrin (β-CD) and its copolymers (as hosts), with several types of guest molecules both in aqueous solution and the solid state. The research is divided into two themes; (1) …

Halogen···Halogen interactions in host - guest systems
… of halogen bond interactions in host-guest complexes utilising both experimental and theoretical techniques. Two host compounds, tetrakis-4-(bromophenyl)ethylene and its iodo-analogue were synthesised for the studies reported in Chapter 3, 4 and 5. Chapter 3, deals with the …

Developing host-guest relationships in Thai tourist resorts
… of national culture on the development of host-guest relationships between local and international tourists and Thai resort operators on Samui Island, Thailand. It proposes that a quality relationship between tourists and resort operators, which is characterised by high levels of trust and …

Molecular Recognition in Host-Guest Ionophore-Siderophore Assemblies
… assemblies and, more specifically, host-guest complexes involved in molecular recognition events. The supramolecular assemblies studied take root from metal ion delivery in biological uptake pathways, specifically the delivery of iron to microbial cells. These assemblies are studied in an …

Functional Supramolecular Hydrogels Mediated by Host-Guest Chemistry
Hydrogels mediated by host-guest interactions represent a compelling class of materials with a myriad of promising applications including medical devices, wearable electronics and even for use as a strong adhesive. Several high-impact applications involving cyclodextrin (CD) mediated hydrogels have …

Structure and reactivity of diol host-guest compounds
… 10- dihydroanthracene with various guest molecules have been determined by X-ray diffraction. The guests were 2-butanone, 4-vinylpyridine, 4-methylpyridine and 2-methylpyridine. The host to guest ratios were determined by microanalysis and density measurements. The change of the …

Selective Dynamic Analysis of Virtualized Whole-System Guest Environments
… instruction that executes within a complete guest system environment.</p> <p>DECAF provides a novel, hardware event-based method of just-in-time virtual machine introspection (VMI) to address the semantic gap problem. It also implements a novel instruction-level taint tracking engine at …

Be Our Guest - International Students in Contemporary Multiethnic Literature
This thesis looks at the literary representation of the international student in two different novels to uncover the true nature of the US’s “hospitality” from the Cold War Era until now. To demonstrate this, I use Derrida’s framework of hospitality, close readings of Susan Choi’s novel The Foreign …

Geometric and optical transformations of supramolecular host-guest amphiphiles
… applications, and others. Simultaneously, host-guest chemistry provides a robust and powerful mechanism for inducing switching on the molecular level. In this research, we demonstrate a new platform that combines molecular self-assembly of an amphiphilic chromophore guest molecule with its host …

Self-Assembled Host-Guest Thin Films for Functional Interfaces
… surfaces with a new or improved function. "Host-guest" thin film complexes are composed of "host" molecules attached the substrate surface, either through physisorption or covalent bonds, with cavities for the inclusion of desired "guest" molecules for the functionalization of the surface. Two …

Nitrosoarenes: magnetic anisotropy, donor-acceptor bonding and host-guest chemistry
Nitrosoarenes (Ar-N=O) were first reported by Baeyer in 1874 after successful synthesis of nitrosobenzene via a diphenyl mercury reaction with nitrosyl bromide. C-nitroso compounds (R-N=O), like nitrosobenzene, fall between hydroxylamines (R-NH-OH) and nitro compounds (R-NO2) on the amine oxidation …

New hydrogen bonding motifs for anion and neutral guest complexation
… was attempted. The synthesis of a neutral guest templated catenane was also attempted in an effort to expand on the simple cleft work.<br/>Finally, a new triazole strapped calix[4]pyrrole synthesised by ‘click’ chemistry is reported. The receptor shows a high affinity for chloride and …
