The work in this thesis is directed towards the preparation of cyclic ester monomers using malic acid as a renewable resource. Their subsequent controlled ring-opening polymerisation (ROP) to yield functionalised poly(ester)s is studied and application in micellar self-assembly reported. Chapter 1 reviews the many synthetic strategies that have been employed in the preparation of functional glycolides, lactides, ε-caprolactones, δ-valerolactones and β-propiolactones. Their subsequent polymerisation and applications are also discussed. Chapter 2 describes the improved synthesis of 3-(S)- [(benz

Abstract:
Delivery of biologically relevant ions such as drugs, neurotransmitters and hormones have been recognized as powerful a tool to control physiology of animals and plants for research purposes and practical applications. In the plant research community, ions are most commonly delivered as part of a solvent by soaking, spraying, pipetting or by adding to the soil. These methods have low control of the delivery dynamics and quantity of ion uptake. These issues motivated the development of the Organic Electronic Ion Pump (OEIP), which delivers only ions of interest by applying an external electric

The presence of organic acids in adequate concentrations in the grape berry, of which tartaric- and malic acid are the main organic acids present, is important as this determines the potential of a must to produce a good and stable wine.

Abstract:
Despite numerous advantages of using particles in a wide range of applications, they have one drawback that is their tendency to agglomerate. One way to overcome this problem is to sterically  stabilize the particles by introducing polymeric  chains covalently attached to the surface. Surface modification by covalently attaching polymer chains to the particle surface can be achieved by e.g. a ‘grafting-from’ technique under UV irradiation. In this thesis, polylactide (PLA) particles were surface modified, under UV irradiation, with the hydrophilic monomers: acrylamide (AAm), acrylic acid (AA),

Abstract:
Metal nanoclusters exhibit unique properties which differ from their bulk materials, owing to the quantum size effects. For example, the catalytic activity of transition metal nanoclusters generally increases with decreasing particle size. However, nanoclusters tend to be fairly unstable with respect to the agglomerate into bulk metal in solution and thus special precautions have to be taken to avoid their aggregation or precipitation during the preparation of such nanoclusters in solution. In order to obtain stable nanoclusters dispersed in solution, a stabilizing agent is usually added into

The demand of D,L-malic acid is increasing with the increase of the beverage market. There is no any Corporation for production D,L-malic acid yet in Taiwan. But two companies of Excel Corp. and Grand Union Chemical Corp. can supply maleic anhdride,which is the raw material of malic acid. Open literature has shown that maleic acid or maleic anhydride reacts with water at 120~200℃ would produce malic acid,

The general industrial process for production DL-malic acid is followed by reaction of maleic acid or maleic anhydride with water. The specification of food grade DL-malic acid from U.S. FDA shows that the concentration of maleic acid should be less than 0.05 wt%, and the concentration of fumaric acid should be less than 1.0 wt% in the DL-malic acid product.
