Asymmetric Synthesis of Bioactive Lactones and the Development of a Catalytic Asymmetric Synthesis of α-Aryl Ketones
by Robert Doran
2015 · Springer
This thesis addresses two fundamental areas in contemporary organic chemistry: synthesis of natural products and catalytic asymmetric synthesis. Firstly, a new methodology, developed by our research group, which allows the asymmetric synthesis of lactones, a structural unit ubiquitous in natural products, was utilised in the synthesis of a number of natural product analogues that showed significant biological activity. Secondly, the development of a catalytic asymmetric synthesis of a key structural motif present in a number of natural products and pharmaceuticals was accomplished. During the course of this work we discovered dual stereo control, which is significant because it allows the configuration of a new stereo centre to be controlled by a simple change of proton source.
Over five decades the author has pastored churches in Delaware, Florida, California, and Texas. He also has taught in graduate schools of theology in Missouri, California, and Florida. He and his wife Gloria presently live in Naples, Florida where he serves as Pastor-at-Large to Covenant Church. In this book he puts before lay people far more than a series of doctrinal affirmations. For those seeking to explore Christianity, for new believers, and for those in the pew seeking to enrich their spiritual life while adding precision and depth to their underestanding of the Bible, the author puts before his readers thoughtful, warm, and inspirational insights into essential apostolic teaching.
The Christian life is a battle, but many believers today don’t realize their involvement in spiritual warfare. Our secular society, characterized by doubt and spiritual skepticism, leaves many Christians embarrassed even to talk about demonic forces of opposition. In order to awaken Christians to the battle around them and prepare them for it, Robert Smart surveys the terrain, identifies the enemy, and conveys defensive and offensive maneuvers for combating Satan. Just as military science combines knowledge of the humanities, natural sciences, applied sciences, and engineering, so this “military textbook” combines knowledge of the Bible, historical theology, contemporary culture, apologetics, practical theology, and biblical counseling. Here is a well-rounded overview of the unavoidable reality of spiritual warfare. Table of Contents: Introduction: The Call to Engage in Spiritual Warfare 1. God Is a Warrior: Biblical Foundations for Spiritual Warfare 2. Historical Theology on Spiritual Warfare 3. The Age of Doubt and the Conditions for Unbelief 4. Satan's Strategies When Christians Are Vulnerable 5. Waging War in God's Strength, Armor, and Weapons 6. Waging War on Identity 7. Curses and Power Encounters Conclusion: Saints Triumphant in the Gospel
The doctrine of believers’ union with Christ has undergone a renaissance in recent years. Evangelicals are rightly fascinated by this previously neglected doctrine—a doctrine with wide-ranging implications for the whole of Christian theology and the Christian life. Drawing on his extensive teaching and research experience, theologian Robert Peterson has written one of the most comprehensive theological treatments of union with Christ to date, highlighting the Spirit’s crucial role in uniting God to his people.
