Reactions of gold(I) electrophiles with nucleophiles derived from group 6 Fischer-type carbene complexes
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2003-04)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study comprises the preparation and characterisation of various novel
organometallic species of gold(I) by employing a range of anionic group 6 metal
Fischer-type carbene complexes and group 6 ...
A DFT study of the catalytic hydrocyanation of ethylene with nickel complexes
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2005-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: DFT calculations employing the B3LYP functional were done to investigate the mechanism for the Ni-catalyzed hydrocyanation of ethylene as proposed by Tolman. Although this reaction is an important industrial ...

Nanochemistry through self-assembly : polymerisation of the organised phases of polyelectrolyte-surfactant complexes
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2003-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The general objective of this research was to develop a new approach to direct
templating, where the organised phases of polyelectrolyte-surfactant
complexes are used as hosts for organic polymerisation ...
