Studies of 1,2-quinone monooximes and their metal complexes by Thomas, Terrance Augustine

“…The 5-acylaminc1,2-benzoqulnone-2- oximes, 5-propionylamino-1,2-benzoquinone-2-oxime (5-PrqoH), 5-butyrylamino-l,2-benzoquinone-2-oxime (5-BuqoH), 5-pentanoylamino-1,2-benzoquinone-2-oxime (5-PeqoH), and 5—heptanoylamino-1,2-benzoquinone-2-oxime (5-HpqoH) were obtained from their metal complexes, since the direct reaction of the phenol with sodium nitrite failed to give the compounds giving the corresponding l,4-benzoquinone-4-oximes,3- proplonylamino-1,4-benzoquinone-4-oxime (3-PrqoH), 3-butyrylamino-1,4- benzoquinone-4-oxlme (3-BuqoH), 3-pentanoylamino-1,4-benzoquinone-4- oxime (3-PeqoH) and 3-heptanoylamino-1,4-benzoquinone-4-oxime (3-HpqoH) instead. …”

Proceedings of 9th Windsor Conference Making Comfort Relevant

“…There is a realisation that behavioural adaptation can lead to a widening as well as a narrowing of the temperatures people find comfortable, and can apply in all buildings not just those which are naturally ventilated. It is 22 years since the Windsor Conference first came to Cumberland Lodge and in that time our own ideas and approaches to the field have changed radically and our discussions have also started to change the assumptions of the world around us. …”

The effect of temperature on permittivity measurements of aqueous solutions of glucose for the development of non-invasive glucose sensors based on electromagnetic waves by Jayanthi, Renu, Virdee, Bal Singh, Lubangakene, Innocent, Ganguly, Priyanka, Mariyanayagam, Dion

“…The development of this technology will allow personalized healthcare diagnostics to monitor and prevent diabetes. Since human glucose levels in the blood vary in the range of a few milligrams per decilitre, estimating such small variations of glucose will require a highly accurate and repeatable sensing technology. …”

Synthesis and structural studies of some metal complexes of tetraaza macrocyclic ligands by Baillie, Philip John

“…A series of dibenzo macrocyclic tetraamine ligands with 14-, 15-, 16-, 17- and 19-membered inner great lings (L14 to L15) has been synthesized to investigate the effect of ring size variation on their complexation behaviour with the metal-ions, Ni(Il), Zn(ll) and Cd(II).…”
