Vanadium Complexes with Mixed O,S Anionic Ligands Derived from Maltol: Synthesis, Characterization, and Biological Studies
Vishakha Monga,Katherine H. Thompson,Violet G. Yuen,Vivek Sharma,Brian O. Patrick,John H. McNeill,Chris Orvig +6 more
TL;DR: Four mixed O,S binding bidentate ligand precursors derived from maltol have been chelated to vanadium to yield new bis(ligand)oxovanadium(IV) and tris(ligands)vanadium(III) complexes.

The dependence of thymine and thymidine Raman spectra on solvent
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the Raman spectra of both thymine and thymidine in eight solvents and nine different basic conditions with visible excitation, respectively, and showed that the observed frequency shifts of specific vibrational modes with characteristic properties of the solvent for both thymmine and Thymidine show a significant correlation with acceptor and donor numbers.

Implementation of a Student-Customized Integrated Upper-Level Chemistry Laboratory Course
Vishakha Monga,Kerry J. Knox,Elizabeth A. Gillis,Robin Stoodley,Guillaume Bussière,Christine Rogers +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the implementation of an integrated approach to upper-level undergraduate chemistry laboratory instruction that incorporates student choice both in the selection and sequencing of the experimental work is presented, which reveals several strengths and weaknesses in terms of logistics and learning environment, insights into how students engaged with the course and the aspect of choice.
Theoretical studies of the tautomers of pyridinethiones.
TL;DR: It is found that the thione form of the tautomer is dominant for monomers of the pyridinethiones studied here and can serve as a reference for exploring other similar organosulfur compounds.

Synthesis and Decomposition Kinetic Studies of Bis(lutidine)silver(I) Nitrate Complexes as an Interdisciplinary Undergraduate Chemistry Experiment
TL;DR: In this article, a new interdisciplinary experiment is described in which students synthesize bis(lutidine)silver(I) nitrate complexes, where the position of the methyl groups on the pyridine ring varies.
