A set of coupled-channel differential equations based on a rotationally distorted optical potential is used to calculate the wave functions required to evaluate the gamma ray transition rate from the first excited state to the ground state in ^(13)C and ^(13)N. The bremsstrahlung differential cross section of low energy protons is also calculated and compared with existing data. The marked similarity between the potentials determined at each resonance level in both nuclei supports the hypothesis of the charge symmetry of nuclear forces by explaining the deviation of the ratios of the experimental E1 transition strengths from unity.

̄pp backward elastic scattering has been measured for the cos θcm region between – 1.00 and – 0.88 and for the incident ̄p laboratory momentum region between 0.70 and 2.37 GeV/c. These measurements, done in intervals of approximately 0.1 GeV/c, have been performed at the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron at Brookhaven National Laboratory during the winter of 1968. The measured differential cross sections, binned in cos θcm intervals of 0.02, have statistical errors of about 10%. Backward dipping exists below 0.95 GeV/c and backward peaking above 0.95 GeV/c. The 180˚ differential cross section extrapolated from our data shows a sharp dip centered at 0.95 GeV/c and a broad hump centered near 1.4 GeV/c. Our data have been interpreted in terms of resonance effects and in terms of diffraction dominance effects.

The lowest T = 2 states have been identified and studied in the nuclei 12C, 12B, 20F and and 28Al. The first two of these were produced in the reactions 14C(p,t)12C and 14C (p,3He)12B, at 50.5 and 63.4 MeV incident proton energy respectively, at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The T = 2 states in 20F and 28Al were observed in (3He,p) reactions at 12-MeV incident energy, with the Caltech Tandem accelerator.

The results for the four nuclei studied are summarized below:

(1) 12C: the lowest T = 2 state was located at an excitation energy of 27595 ± 20 keV, and has a width less than 35 keV.

(2) 12B: the lowest T = 2 state was found at an excitation energy of 12710 ± 20 keV. The width was determined to be less than 54 keV and the spin and parity were confirmed to be 0+. A second 12B state (or doublet) was observed at an excitation energy of 14860 ± 30 keV with a width (if the group corresponds to a single state) of 226 ± 30 keV.

(3) 20F: the lowest T = 2 state was observed at an excitation of 6513 ± 5 keV; the spin and parity were confirmed to be 0+. A second state, tentatively identified as T = 2 from the level spacing, was located at 8210 ± 6 keV.

(4) 28Al: the lowest T = 2 state was identified at an excitation of 5997 ± 6 keV; the spin and parity were confirmed to be 0+. A second state at an excitation energy of 7491 ± 11 keV is tentatively identified as T = 2, with a corresponding (tentative) spin and parity assignment Jπ = 2+.

The results of the present work and the other known masses of T = 2 states and nuclei for 8 ≤ A ≤ 28 are summarized, and massequation coefficients have been extracted for these multiplets. These coefficients were compared with those from T = 1 multiplets, and then used to predict the mass and stability of each of the unobserved members of the T = 2 multiplets.

Terphenyl diphosphines bearing pendant ethers were prepared to provide mechanistic insight into the mechanism of activation of aryl C–O bonds with Group 9 and Group 10 transition metals. Chapters 2 and 3 of this dissertation describe the reactivity of compounds supported by the model phosphine and extension of this chemistry to heterogenous C–O bond activation.

Chapter 2 describes the synthesis and reactivity of aryl-methyl and aryl-aryl model systems. The metallation of these compounds with Ni, Pd, Pt, Co, Rh, and Ir is described. Intramolecular bond activation pathways are described. In the case of the aryl-methyl ether, aryl C–O bond activation was observed only for Ni, Rh, and Ir.

Chapter 3 outlines the reactivity of heterogenous Rh and Ir catalysts for aryl ether C–O bond cleavage. Using Rh/C and an organometallic Ir precursor, aryl ethers were treated with H2 and heat to afford products of hydrogenolysis and hydrogenation. Conditions were modified to optimize the yield of hydrogenolysis product. Hydrogenation could not be fully suppressed in these systems.

Appendix A describes initial investigations of bisphenoxyiminoquinoline dichromium compounds for selective C2H4 oligomerization to afford α-olefins. The synthesis of monometallic and bimetallic Cr complexes is described. These compounds are compared to literature examples and found to be less active and non-selective for production of α-olefins.

Appendix B describes the coordination chemistry of terphenyl diphosphines, terphenyl bisphosphinophenols, and biphenyl phosphinophenols proligands with molybdenum, cobalt, and nickel. Since their synthesis, terphenyl diphosphine molybdenum compounds have been reported to be good catalysts for the dehydrogenation of ammonia borane. Biphenyl phosphinophenols are demonstrated provide both phosphine and arene donors to transition metals while maintaining a sterically accessible coordination sphere. Such ligands may be promising in the context of the activation of other small molecules.

Appendix C contains relevant NMR spectra for the compounds presented in the preceding sections.
