Olfactory communicatiaon : chemical characterization of the interdigital secretion of the black wildebeest, Connochaetes gnou
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2000-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The black wildebeest, Connochaetes gnou, is a terriorial animal and although it is not
generally accepted, it is believed that it defines its territory by scent marking, using
interdigital and preorbital ...
Tin-bemiddeling van inositolderivatisering
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2000-03)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The aim of this thesis is to use tin-mediated reactions to differentiate between the four
zones in the myo-inositol ring that consists of five contiguous equatorial and one axial
hydroxyl groups. It ...
Ontwikkeling van instrumentasie vir omvattende tweedimensionele gaschromatografie
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2001-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Even capillary gas chromatography does not always give complete separation of the
components of complex mixtures. During the last few decades several two-dimensional
gas chromatographic techniques were ...
Design and evaluation of photocatalytic reactors for water purification
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2001-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The photo-mineralization of organic compounds (in the combined presence of a Ti02
based semiconductor catalyst, UV radiation and molecular oxygen) represents an
advanced oxidation technology with ...
Application of modern chromatographic technologies for the analysis of volatile compounds in South African wines
(2009-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT:
The present study was initiated by the wine industry of South Africa to overcome the
lack of available information on the flavor and aroma of South African wines. The
aim was to develop new analytical ...
New transition metal carbene complexes for application in homogeneous catalysis
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2005-12)
This study comprises the preparation and full characterisation of new carbene complexes of group
10 metals (Ni, Pd or Pt), the group 9 metal, rhodium, as well as group 6 metals (Cr and/or W).
N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ...
Utilisation of various bonding modes of nitrogen-rich heterocycles in gold(I) chemistry
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2006-03)
This study describes the exploitation of numerous donor ligand possibilities presented by
selected nitrogen-rich heterocyclic ligands towards gold(I). The preparation and structural
characterisation of novel gold(I) ...
The synthesis, chemical and physical characterisation of selected energetic binder systems
(Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch, 2009-03)
Due to numerous accidents involving munitions, recent interest has focused on the
development and use of insensitive munitions (IM). Polymeric materials are used in
insensitive munitions as binders or plasticizers. Most ...
Synthesis and radiochemical stability evaluation of radiopharmaceutical compounds containing radioiodinated prosthetic groups
(Stellenbosch : Stellenbosch University, 2004-12)
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A study was undertaken to investigate the radiochemical stability of the βiodoethoxyl moiety,
a relatively novel prosthetic group employed in radiopharmaceutical chemistry, in which an
oxygen atom in ...
