| Summary: | Thesis advisor: Marc Snapper === Monoalkylation of 1,2diols: No method for an asymmetric monoalkylation has been previously reported. Attempts here were made to develop this transformation by using a copper catalyst and BOX ligand to impart chirality. Design of First Aid Smart Fabrics: A cellulose filter paper would be linked through a cleavable linker to a bioactive agent. This linker would cleave upon the presence of blood to release the drug directly onto the body. === Thesis (MS) — Boston College, 2012. === Submitted to: Boston College.
