A Comparison of the Achievements of Science and Non-Science Majors Enrolled in General Chemistry at North Texas State College

Description: It is the specific purpose of this investigation to determine the difference, if any, in the amount of practical, everyday chemistry learned by the science majors as opposed to the non-science majors enrolled in general chemistry at the North Texas State College during the school year 1950-1951.

Hydantoins as Anticonvulsants. III. 5-Alkoxy- and Aryloxymethyl-5-(2-Thienyl) Hydantoins

Description: It has been shown in the case of a compound synthesized in this laboratory that substitution of the thienyl group for one of the phenyl groups in diphenyl hydantoin produces a compound with less toxicity and somewhat greater activity. It was considered of interest to carry out an analogous substitution in the series of 5-phenyl-5-alkoxymethylhydantions.

Hydantoins as Anticonvulsants. VI. 5-Substituted-Alkoxy Derivatives of 5-Phenylhydantoin

Description: No derivatives of 5-phenylhydantoin with an oxygen atom attached directly in the five position of the hydantoin nucleus have been found in the literature. It was therefore considered of interest to synthesize a series of compounds of this type to determine the effect of the change of the position of the oxygen atom on anticonvulsant activity.

Hydantoins as Anticonvulsants. VIII. 5-Alkylmercapto Derivatives of 3-Methyl-5-Phenylhydantoin

Description: Recent years have seen a rapid increase in the search for new compounds to be employed in the treatment of convulsions associated with epilepsy and related ailments. The properties desired are a higher degree of effectiveness and lower toxicity than those already in use. This thesis describes the effect of methylation of the 5-alkylmercapto-5-phenylhydantoins.

The Hydrolysis of α-(Benzenesulfonyl)-Acetophenone

Description: In view of the unexpected behavior of α-(benzenesulfonyl)-acetophenone toward hydrolysis and because of the possible physiological importance of its derivatives it was deemed of interest to make a further study of the hydrolysis of this compound. It was decided to study both the acid and basic hydrolysis of this compound. The problem consisted of finding a satisfactory means of analyzing the hydrolysis products, and carrying out the hydrolysis under the different conditions.

Naphthoquinone Studies

Description: This thesis describes a series of naphthoquinone reactions employing pyridine carboxylic acid derivatives (nicotinic acid derivatives). The products of these reactions will be tested by Parke, Davis and Company for their activity against the tubercle bacillus and other pathogenic microorganisms.

Nitration of Thiophene Analogs of DDT

Description: Since thiophene very often yields compounds that are analogous to benzene derivatives in general physiological properties, it was decided to attempt to prepare the nitro and amino derivatives of 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis-(2-thienyl)-ethane (V) as well as the nitro and amino derivatives of 2,2,3-trichloro-1,1-bis-(2-thienyl)-butane (VI).
